Sektor7 – RTO Malware Development Intermediate Course

In our previous Essentials course we discussed basic steps to create a custom dropper.

This course builds on what you have learned so far by extending your development capabilities with:

playing with Process Environment Blocks and implementing our own function address resolution
more advanced code injection techniques
understanding how reflective binaries work and building custom reflective DLLs, either with source or binary only
in-memory hooking, capturing execution flow to block, monitor or evade functions of interest
grasping 32- and 64-bit processing and performing migrations between x86 and x64 processes
discussing inter process communication and how to control execution of multiple payloads

The course ends with a combined project, where you will create a custom dropper implementing discussed techniques.

You will receive a virtual machine with complete environment for developing and testing your software, and a set of source code templates which will allow you to focus on understanding the essential mechanisms instead of less important technical aspects of implementation.
