Further penetration into infrastructure

Curiosity is a double-edged weapon. It is part of who we are as humans. Persistent attacks are not enough for a hungry hacker. So, a penetration tester will look for further techniques to compromise more systems and networks in the infrastructure, to gain more access. Some of these techniques are:

  • Ping sweep
  • Internal DNS enumeration
  • Install uploaders
  • Services enumeration
  • Port forwarding
  • VPN to internal networks pivoting
