Hey there.
Welcome to the course, Privilege Escalation with SharpUp.
In this Cybersecurity Tools course,
you'll learn how to gain admin access to your target using
the SharpUp tool. In a red team engagement, after getting
initial access to a machine,
you need to escalate your privileges to be able to achieve some of your
objectives, like collecting sensitive data. In this course, we'll cover the
SharpUp tool, which is one of the most complete tools to enumerate
misconfigurations that could lead to privilege escalation.
We start this course by understanding privilege
escalation and compiling the tool.
Next, we use SharpUp to enumerate misconfigurations from your
target. Then, we exploit two of those misconfigurations to get
admin level access to the server.
So, whether you're trying to escalate privileges in a red
team engagement or you're just looking to audit the
cybersecurity exposure of your own company,
join me in learning how to escalate privilege with the
SharpUp tool, here at Pluralsight.
