This covers the full spectrum of getting your initial foothold during red team engagements, from phishing campaigns to exploiting exposed services. You get concrete payload delivery methods (HTML smuggling, ISO/IMG containers for MOTW bypass, OneNote embedding), credential stuffing patterns against O365 and VPN portals, and modern social engineering like ClickFix fake CAPTCHAs. The staged payload architecture is smart: lightweight loader to minimal implant to full C2, with clear OPSEC guidance on domain warming and infrastructure separation. Honestly, the DLL sideloading section with specific targets like Teams and OneDrive is immediately actionable. Note that some techniques like ISO MOTW bypass are patched in Windows 11 22H2+, so you'll need to adjust for newer targets.

Initial Access

When to Activate

  • Planning initial access phase of red team engagement
  • Developing phishing campaigns and payload delivery
  • Bypassing email gateways and endpoint protection
  • Exploiting exposed services for initial foothold

Attack Vectors

Email-Based (Phishing)

Payload Delivery Formats (bypass probability):

  • .exe — almost always blocked
  • .iso/.img — bypasses MOTW (Mark of the Web) on older Windows
  • .html (smuggling) — high success rate
  • .pdf with embedded JS — moderate
  • .one (OneNote) — effective until patched
  • .lnk + DLL sideload — high success in ISO container
  • .pptm/.ppsm/.accde — often not covered by default protection

Domain Preparation:

  • Domain age > 2 weeks (warm up with legitimate emails first)
  • Use HTTPS with valid certificate
  • Category: business/technology (not "newly registered")
  • SPF, DKIM, DMARC properly configured
  • Send legitimate emails first to build reputation

HTML Smuggling
