PowerShell for Offense and Defense - Online Training

Trainer: Ben Ten

Skill Level: Students with a basic understanding of PowerShell and its functions

Course Description:

Whether you are a penetration tester or a defender, there is one common tool that is used very heavily by both teams; PowerShell. PowerShell has grown to be an organization’s best friend and potentially its worst enemy. In this course, we will demonstrate how you can use PowerShell both as a penetration tester and as a defender. We will identify ways to attack a lab environment and then how you can use PowerShell to detect those attacks. We will also look at ways to use PowerShell as a deceptive defense. This class is designed for students to be immersed in a simulated corporate environment that allows students to attack and detect against those attacks. This class will cover tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs) commonly used by penetration testers and will demonstrate ways to identify those indicators of compromise (IoCs) all within PowerShell.
