HBN BlackOps
This is the final course in the HBN series before you are deployed into 'combat'. Here, you'll hone your skills in real-world scenarios before being shipped off to 'battle.' Where HBN Bootcamp focuses on methodology and HBN Combat focuses on thinking, HBN BlackOps covers tools and techniques to sharpen your skills on data exfiltration, privilege escalation, pivoting, client-side attacks and even a little exploit writing.
During the course you'll also focus on the practical elements of attacking commonly found systems. The course is instructor-lead, with slides and structured labs that guide you through numerous scenarios. This is hands-on hacking, made fun!
Course Topics
- The difference between exploiting and owning a system
- Tunnelling, pivoting and data exfiltration
- Client-side attacks
- Owning the client using XSS
- Extranet hacking
- Privilege escalation
- Basic custom exploit writing
Context
This course follows on from HBN Bootcamp and prepares you for HBN Combat - our ultimate hands-on hacking course. Although prior participation in an HBN course is not a prerequisite, significant exposure to hacking training, tools and techniques is highly recommended. This course can be taken back-to-back with HNB Bootcamp or HNB Combat, depending on your level of experience.
Prerequisites
This course is designed for students who have experience in hacking. Students should be well versed in basic programming or scripting, networking and Internet technologies, Unix and Windows operating systems, basic SQL and database technologies. Although advanced skills are not required, students without a good, practical knowledge of these areas will fall behind in this fast-paced class. Students without the required skills are encouraged to consider HBN Bootcamp. HBN Bootcamp and HBN Black Ops can be taken back-to-back.
In order to complete the course, students will be given preconfigured laptops that will serve all the needs of the environment, along with all other material. Software and all course material are available upon completion.
