Penetration Testing Notes

These are notes and instructions I've been writing up for performing penetration testing.

Part 1: Building a security lab

• Building a virtual router - We need to build two networks, one for our targets and one for our attacking hosts and put a router in between them.

Part 2: Network reconnaissance

Part 3: Exploitation - Direct

Part 4: Exploitation - Indirect
