In this chapter, we segmented our lab network further by adding a new interface to our firewall. We then utilized the skills we learned about in Chapter 11, Whoot…. I Have To Go Deep, to gain a dynamic shell and launch a remote desktop session with proxy chains to our workstation victim. After this, we discussed the various SCADA and DCS systems that we could encounter in our pentesting journeys. We reused various credentials to exploit the UI of our SCADA system before capitalizing on a misconfigured FTP server and, in turn, gaining a reverse shell back to our attacking box. We exploited the system right up to the control hardware and in doing so, discussed the pitfalls of going deeper into the control plane. Gaining this deep of a foothold should suffice for 99.99% of the engagements that you will be part of.
Understanding the technology and the ramifications and outcome of going deeper will be an important addition to the out brief report. We will do this in...
