PowerShell for Red Teaming teaches practical PowerShell skills tailored to offensive operations and operational tradecraft, with strong emphasis on detection awareness. Students move from core PowerShell constructs to intermediate scripting, remote execution, persistence patterns, and tooling used in modern engagements. The course balances technique with detection/defense considerations so learners understand both execution and observability. The week culminates with a PowerShell-only Capture-the-Flag (CTF) style Culmination Exercise (CULEX) that validates scripting, automation, remote execution, and reporting skills in a controlled environment.
Intended Audience: Cyber operators, red team personnel, and penetration testers who require practical PowerShell proficiency for offensive operations in Windows environments. Students should already be comfortable with basic PowerShell usage and Windows internals and be prepared to apply scripting techniques in detection-aware, operational scenarios.
