Do you know how to create an automated, iterative reverse DNS lookup tool in a
single Windows command? How about a ping sweeper in a single Windows command?
A password guesser?

Please join Core Security and Ed Skoudis, SANS instructor and founder of
Intelguardians, to learn about these penetration testing techniques and more
in this not-to-be-missed webcast:

“Penetration Testing Ninjitsu”
**Register here:

We’ll begin by looking at some of the motivations for proactively identifying
and exploiting security flaws before the bad guys do – and then take a deep dive
into useful tips that you can use in your own testing initiatives. Specifically,
you’ll learn techniques for leveraging the Windows command shell on a compromised
machine to scan and test other systems on the network.

This all-new take on Skoudis’ popular “Windows Command-Line Kung Fu” presentation
is specially focused on penetration testing. Whether you’re a red team member,
a finder and fixer, or a third-party consultant, this webcast is sure to add to
your security testing toolkit.

Bill,

You got that on the board quick.  I was just reading through the email message when the Ethical Hacker Forum notified me of this porting.  I would like to tell everyone that if you have never had a class with Ed Skoudis it truly is a pleasure.  In addition this webcast is FREE!  Ya can't beat free.

Heh... yeah I'm already signed up for that.  I got that email earlier today as well.   Since they're planning to give it out to people who attend the webinar, I was planning on sending the presentation to anyone interested.

nope but i can do it in bash...

#!/bin/bash

cat iprange.txt | while read IP;
do echo ${IP} && host ${IP} nameserverIP;
done >> hostoutput.txt

[BillV]

This webinar is starting within the next 10 minutes... anyone else attending?

I'm on.

Reminds me a lot of the 'Frosty the Snow Crash' challenge

That's the first time I've heard a presentation by Ed Skoudis. He sounds like an excellent instructor and I'm definitely going to look into taking this course sometime in the future (as I'm sure it's quite costly).

[BillV]

That was a great webinar... I'm looking into the course now, it definitely sounds like something worth taking. Does anyone know if SANS offers financing for classes? Off to check the site...

[g00d_4sh]

It was definately interesting to listen to.  I had wondered at the easiest way to create a ping sweeper/hostname resolver via command line.  That's kind of nifty.   I guess personally I wish he would have been able to spend more time on other little nifty 'meats and potatos' techi things like that, but if he did we wouldn't be as motivated to pay for the class if we heard it all eh?  Yeah, he sounds like a great teacher, that was worth my time.

Bummer, missed this one.  Looks like it would have been a neat one to attend.

Hey rance, I think I heard that this presentation was being recorded so you could probably view it later.

This was the first time I heard Skoudis speak live and I must say that this guy can teach and at the same time make it real entertaining. Looking forward to his second webcast (3 part series) on May 20th.

Anyone know where they'll post the presentation?  It doesn't seem to be online yet.

[BillV]

I'm not sure, but they should be sending an email to the attendees with that information. I'm sure one of us will post it once received.

I was unable to attend this event as it classed with a live BCS event was attending. Hopefully there will be a recording of the presentation released as I was interested before hand (and moreso after reading comments from those that attended).

Unfortunately from previous experience with Core Security they are usually fairly quick to get the recordings out.

If I hear anything else or get a link I will let you all know

Thanks.  I too was unable to attend and would like to review it as well.
