Network Attacks: Lateral Movement
In this lab, you’ll practice lateral movement techniques in a network environment. When you’re finished, you’ll understand SSH hijacking, exploiting RSH/Rlogin, and pass-the-hash attacks to access and retrieve secret data from target servers.

Getting Started in the Lab Environment
Here are the initial instructions and explanation of the lab environment. Read this while your environment is busy creating itself from nothing. Yes, this violates physics; we know. How fun!

Challenge
Compromising Target Linux System
In this challenge, you will perform SSH hijacking and exploit RSH/Rlogin services from the already compromised Linux system to laterally move to the target Linux system by using the information (Services running on Linux server SSHD and RSH/Rlogin) provided by your colleagues. Your goal is to gain root access, and read the sensitive data stored on the target system.

Challenge
Pass-the-Hash Attack on Target Windows System
In this challenge, you will perform a pass-the-hash attack from the already compromised Windows system to laterally move to the target Windows system. Your objective is to gain access to read the sensitive data stored on the target system.

The Last Challenge
Welcome to the final challenge! This is your last chance to experiment in the environment. Clicking Finish Lab will end this little world that flittered into existence just for you.
What's a lab?
Hands-on Labs are real environments created by industry experts to help you learn. These environments help you gain knowledge and experience, practice without compromising your system, test without risk, destroy without fear, and let you learn from your mistakes. Hands-on Labs: practice your skills before delivering in the real world.
Provided environment for hands-on practice
We will provide the credentials and environment necessary for you to practice right within your browser.
