Master systematic methodologies for using Shodan to perform deep reconnaissance during penetration testing. This skill covers querying exposed services, mapping assets, identifying vulnerable systems (CVEs), and utilizing advanced filters for IP ranges, geographical locations, and organizational data. Ideal for security researchers and ethical hackers.

A comprehensive framework for assessing network security posture. This skill guides the tester through the entire penetration testing lifecycle, from reconnaissance and host discovery (using tools like Nmap) to service enumeration, vulnerability identification (CVEs), and controlled exploitation (Metasploit). It is essential for validating firewall rules, ensuring compliance (e.g., PCI-DSS), and stress-testing critical infrastructure security.

This guide details the exploitation chain for noPac, combining CVE-2021-42278 (sAMAccountName spoofing) and CVE-2021-42287 (KDC PAC confusion). It demonstrates how an attacker can escalate from a standard domain user to Domain Admin by manipulating Active Directory tickets and performing DCSync. Primarily used in authorized red-teaming and penetration testing to validate domain security.

A comprehensive guide to using the Metasploit Framework for advanced penetration testing and vulnerability validation. This skill details how to confirm exploitability of identified CVEs, gather post-exploitation evidence, and validate patch remediation effectiveness. It is essential for risk-based vulnerability management and red team exercises, providing proof of real-world impact beyond simple scanner scores.

This guide details the exploitation of the critical Zerologon vulnerability (CVE-2020-1472) in Active Directory Domain Controllers. It demonstrates the methodology for resetting the DC machine account password to empty, achieving full domain compromise. Subsequent steps include dumping domain credentials using DCSync. Essential for authorized red-teaming and security validation.

A comprehensive solution for performing Operational Technology (OT) vulnerability assessments using the Claroty xDome platform. It automatically discovers assets, correlates vulnerabilities using CVE and ICS-CERT advisories, and calculates risk scores. This method is designed for compliance requirements (e.g., IEC 62443, NERC CIP) and initial asset risk profiling, relying on passive monitoring and safe querying rather than active scanning or penetration testing.

This comprehensive guide details the process of performing authenticated and unauthenticated vulnerability assessments using Tenable Nessus. It covers everything from advanced scan configuration (port discovery, credentialing, plugin setup) to detailed result analysis, including cross-referencing CVEs and prioritizing remediation based on CVSS scores and exploit availability. Ideal for compliance auditing, penetration testing, and maintaining system patch compliance.

Run comprehensive, read-only exposure checks against your local machine or project directories in response to security advisories and CVEs. This tool systematically checks various ecosystems (Node.js, Python, Homebrew, etc.) to generate a structured, non-invasive audit report, helping users understand their actual risk exposure without making any system changes.
