Offensive Security Pathway - Level 4 of 6

About this course

Level 4, Offensive Security Colonel (OSC), propels your hacking skills to an advanced level by diving deep into web application vulnerabilities, post-exploitation techniques, and privilege escalation on both Windows and Linux. This chapter covers sophisticated web attacks like SQL Injection, Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF), Remote File Inclusion (RFI), and Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF), giving you the tools to exploit web applications beyond basic vulnerabilities.You’ll gain an understanding of post-exploitation strategies—what to do after you’ve compromised a system. This includes gathering sensitive data, monitoring user activities through keylogging, and maintaining persistence in compromised networks. Privilege escalation is crucial in offensive security, and this course will teach you how to elevate privileges on Windows and Linux systems using tools like WinPEAS and LinPEAS.One of the highlights of this chapter is hacking Active Directory, a critical skill for those looking to specialize in network attacks. You’ll learn to map and exploit AD environments using techniques like Bloodhound, Kerberoasting, and Pass-the-Hash. Additionally, you’ll explore advanced network attacks, including MITM, ARP spoofing, and DNS poisoning.This level is designed for those ready to tackle the most complex and rewarding challenges in offensive security.SyllabusWeb Attacks: Deep dive into advanced web application vulnerabilities, including SQL Injection, Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF), Remote File Inclusion (RFI), and Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF).Post-Exploitation Techniques: Understanding how to gather sensitive information, keylog user activities, and establish persistence after gaining access.Privilege Escalation Techniques: Learn how to escalate privileges on Windows and Linux systems using tools like WinPEAS and LinPEAS.Hacking Active Directory
