Attended SEC561: Network Penetration Testing: Maximizing the Effectiveness of Reports, Exploits, and Command Shells at SANSFIRE 2009. This event was held at the Hilton in Baltimore, Maryland and was taught by John Strand.Course Description: This one-day session builds on the principles of SANS Security 560 with additional discussion and numerous hands-on exercises designed to help attendees make the most of their penetration tests. The course describes using Metasploit functionality to transform payloads into executable programs that are highly useful in penetration tests. We then look at altering the executables with Metasploit's encode functionality, packing them to evade detection, and then loading them onto USB tokens for autoplay attacks on Windows machines, all done in a detailed hands-on exercise. We also address how to write penetration testing reports that have maximum effectiveness in helping an organization to understand its risks based on the findings of a penetration test, motivating positive changes in the security stance of the target organization. The session concludes with a detailed discussion of the critical post-exploitation phase of a penetration test, leveraging built-in Unix, Linux, and Windows tools such as /dev/tcp, telnet clients, and ftp to launch port scans, create backdoor shells, and move files, all techniques that can be directly applied in real-world penetration tests.
