7MS #381: DIY $500 Pentesting Lab Deployment Tips

For Windows VMs

  • Take a snapshot right after the OS is installed, as (I believe) the countdown timer for Windows evaluation mode starts upon first "real" boot.
  • Want to quickly run Windows updates on a fresh Win VM? Try this (here's the source):
powershell Install-PackageProvider -Name NuGet -Force powershell Install-Module PSWindowsUpdate -force powershell Set-ExecutionPolicy bypass powershell Import-Module PSWindowsUpdate powershell Get-WindowsUpdate powershell Install-WindowsUpdates -AcceptAll -AutoReboot
  • To turn on remote desktop:
Set-ItemProperty -Path 'HKLM:\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Terminal Server'-name "fDenyTSConnections" -Value 0
  • To set the firewall to allow RDP:
Enable-NetFirewallRule -DisplayGroup "Remote Desktop"
  • To stop the freakin' Windows hosts from going to sleep:
powercfg.exe -change -standby-timeout-ac 0
  • To automate the install of VMWare tools, grab the package from VMWare's site, decompress it, then:
setup64.exe /s /v "/qn reboot=r"
  • To set the time zone via command line, run tzutil /l and then you can set your desired zone with something like tzutil /s "Central Standard Time"

For Linux VMs

  • Get SSH keys regenerated and install/run openssh server:
apt install openssh-server -y mkdir /etc/ssh/default_keys mv /etc/ssh/ssh_host_* /etc/ssh/default_keys/ dpkg-reconfigure openssh-server systemctl enable ssh.service systemctl start ssh.service

7MS #256: AlienVault Certified System Engineer - Part 2

So a few weeks ago I did an episode about the AlienVault Certified Security Engineer certification, and last Friday I took a stab at the test. I failed. It kicked my butt. Today I'm here to both rant about the unfairness of the test and offer you some study tips so you don't suffer a similar fate. P.S. - you should definitely check out this blog as it's one of the few valuable study guides I could find out there on the Interwebs.

7MS #255: PwnPro 101

I'm kicking the tires on the PwnPro which is an all-in-one wired, wireless and Bluetooth assessment and pentesting tool. Upon getting plugged into a network, it peers with a cloud portal and lets you assess and pentest from the comfort of your jammies back at your house! Oh, and did I mention it runs Kali on the back end? Delicious. Today's episode dives into some of what I've been learning about the PwnPro as I run it through its paces at work and warm it up for our first customer assessment...

7MS #254: Bash Bunny

I've been working with the Bash Bunny for the past few weeks in preparation for a presentation/demo I'm doing in a few weeks. Today I want to talk about what the Bunny is, the cool things it can do, and some of my favorite payloads. Also, I started thinking about what conversation topics spawn from a demo of the Bunny. Specifically, I want to know how people would defend against the Bunny using AD policies, peripheral controls, etc. Check out the Hak5 thread I started about this, as it has got some great ideas.
