In this video, Mick Douglas discusses various PowerShell data exfiltration techniques. He demonstrates how to use Powercat to transmit data to a target machine, and how to exploit a vulnerability in an HTTP server to steal cookies. He recommends using tools like Ben tends not PowerShell and invoke obfuscation to detect and expel data.

00:00:00 The author of this video discusses the pros and cons of being a pen tester, and how the industry has changed in recent years. He points out that, although there are still powerful attacks out there, there are ways to detect and prevent them.
00:05:00 This video discusses ways to exploit data exfiltration vulnerabilities. The presenter discusses how to detect and respond to data exfiltration attempts.
00:10:00 This video discusses various PowerShell data exfiltration techniques, including digital, physical, and email-based methods. The speaker also mentions the risk of data theft when printed out.
00:15:00 In this video, Mick Douglas discusses pentesting techniques involving data exfiltration via network-based methods. He advises clients to have detection rates and adjust accordingly, and to always use safe data. He also notes that pentesters should adhere to the Hippocratic oath and not harm clients during attacks. Finally, he provides a few examples of tools and techniques that he uses in pen tests.
00:20:00 In this video, Mick Douglas demonstrates how to exfiltrate data using a raw socket approach. He demonstrates how to find the port on which the data is being sent, and how to send data to that port using a test Net connection.
00:25:00 In this video, Mick Douglas demonstrates how to use PowerShell data exfiltration techniques to transmit data to a target machine. He first sets up a netcat listener on the target machine, then transmits a file using Powercat. If all goes well, the data should have been exfiltrated. Douglas also points out that this technique is also effective from the attacker side, and that every firewall has the ability to detect port protocol mismatches.
00:30:00 PowerShell data exfiltration techniques can be used by attackers to extract data from remote systems. PowerCat is a open source tool that makes use of dotnet primitives and allows for the interception of data sent over a network.
00:35:00 This video demonstrates how to exploit Windows systems by using PowerShell scripts to exploit vulnerabilities and gain access to sensitive data. The video also demonstrates how to use HTTP to bypass network security measures.
00:40:00 This video demonstrates how to exfiltrate data via cookies, using a web request session. In this example, the secret data is sent to a domain that the attacker controls, in order to bypass cookie restrictions.
00:45:00 This video demonstrates how to exploit a vulnerability in an HTTP server to steal cookies, which can be used to bypass security measures.
00:50:00 In this video, Mick Douglas demonstrates how to exfiltrate sensitive data using PowerShell data interception techniques. The techniques are easy to execute and require few tools and no special knowledge.
00:55:00 Mick Douglas discusses the techniques he uses to pentest data exfiltration using PowerShell. He recommends using tools like Ben tends not PowerShell and invoke obfuscation to detect and expel data. He also recommends following what others are doing on Twitter for pentesting inspiration. Finally, he advises defenders to look for beaconing and unique header values to detect data exfiltration.
