This talk will present and outline various techniques for the manipulation of processes at runtime in the Windows environment. Attendees will leave with a better understanding of how the Windows API functions are leveraged by attackers to extract the contents of memory, inject shellcode into other processes and how functions can be hooked and rerouted to execute malicious code. The different techniques used to manipulate processes will be discussed with provided examples. Penetration testers and defensive security people alike will benefit from learning just how tools such as meterpreter are able to inject themselves into and manipulate processes.
