Evasion Engineering: Building Custom Red Team Tools for Modern Defenses by Dennis Chow
Requirements: .ePUB reader, 26.5 MB
Overview: If your tooling is public, it’s already known. Defenders have studied every public offensive framework. They know Cobalt Strike’s beacon patterns, Metasploit’s shellcode signatures, and the behavioral fingerprints of every commodity implant. Once it’s known, the tool gets burned. As a red teamer, your job is to get in. When defenders know your tools, they know your moves—and you don’t get in. Evasion Engineering teaches you to build custom offensive tooling in Go by understanding what modern defenses actually target and building around them. You’ll construct network enumerators, C2 implants, lateral movement tools, obfuscated loaders, and covert exfiltration channels. Each chapter then flips the perspective: the same techniques, examined from the detection side. Build the tool. Understand how it gets caught. Build better. Dennis Chow (GIAC Security Expert #288) and Michael LaSalvia bring 36 combined years of experience inside Fortune 500 red team programs. They treat payload development as an engineering discipline: robustness, reusability, and reliability built in from the start, not bolted on after the fact. If you’ve been relying on tools the defender already knows, this book is where that changes. This book is intended for penetration testers seeking to become skilled red team operators. You should have experience using and automating tasks for web, cloud, Linux, and networking technologies to get the most from each lab. Even if you’re already familiar with other areas of security, you’ll gain valuable insights into how different TTPs work at a much deeper level. The chapters also make extensive use of multiple cloud providers and the Go programming language. If you don’t have experience in either, be sure to read the appendix. Requires Go 1.21.x and higher and Python 3.x
