Table of Contents
| ID | Process | Description |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Enumeration | - Enumeration is the key and it always will be. - This is the most important part and should always be done correctly and fully and patiently so that the exploit can be done. |
| 2 | Foothold&Exploit | - This is the step where we take what we found during the enumeration phase into work to attack and exploit the target vulnerability and create a foothold or persistent connection to the target (ideally with RCE - remote code execution). |
| 3 | Priviledge Escalation | - After we can get into the target system, we gonna find a way to elevate our normal user to root user or admin user of the target system and compromise the target to gain persistent connect and important information. |
