Exam 312-50v12 topic 1 question 10 discussion

B. Weaponization The cyber kill chain is a framework that describes the different stages of a cyber attack. The stages of the kill chain are as follows: Reconnaissance Weaponization Delivery Exploitation Installation Command and Control Actions on Objectives In this scenario, the penetration tester has already completed the first stage of reconnaissance by harvesting the employees' email addresses from public sources. They are now in the second stage of weaponization, where they are creating a client-side backdoor and attaching it to an email in order to deliver it to the employees. The next stages of the kill chain would be delivery, where the email is sent to the employees, followed by exploitation, installation, and command and control, where the attacker gains access to the target system and establishes a channel for ongoing communication.

B. Weaponization his stage involves the creation or acquisition of a malicious payload, like a client-side backdoor, and preparing it for delivery to the target. In this scenario, you are creating a client-side backdoor to send to the employees via email, which is the weaponization stage.

Based on the vulnerabilities identified during analysis, the adversary selects or creates a tailored deliverable malicious payload (remote-access malware weapon) using an exploit and a backdoor to send it to the victim. An adversary may target specific network devices, operating systems, endpoint devices, or even individuals within the organization to carry out their attack.
