Host Exploitation and Forensic Analysis

by Coleman Kane

For forensic analysis and host exploitation (attack simulation), here are lectures covering the bulk of this topic:

• Building an Attack
• Using Metasploit and Pupy RAT
• Static Analysis of Compromised Host
• Analysis Exercise

The first two lectures demonstrate using some common offensive tools to compromise a VM. In particular, the PupyRAT malware is both open source and alleged to be used by many countries’ intelligence services for cyber espionage, making it a great real-world candidate for analysis.

The second two modules cover analysis of VMs, the last of which is a follow-along type of exercise.
