Welcome to this learning module on lateral movement. Attackers move laterally to expand their foothold within the network, gain access to valuable assets or information, and identify vulnerabilities they can exploit in order to achieve their objectives. This module explores a few foundational lateral movement techniques that are leveraged by virtually all persistent attackers.
One of the primary ways that attackers move laterally through a network is through remote services. This module will focus on several common remote service techniques, including:
* WMI
* DCOM
* WinRM
* scheduled tasks
By understanding how these techniques work and what they look like, we can improve our detections and hasten our response.
The events in your SIEM can be found in the following timespan: 1 Apr 2023 - 2 Apr 2023.](https://assets.aceresponder.com/meta/80916b5d-0a75-4fd7-950c-58459e0c3560.png)
