I've been fairly quiet about recent events for good reasons, but this popped up on my radar - netspi.com/mdsec-security-al…
I don't have much to say except some companies will forever lack class. For anyone looking for a new pentest, red team or c2 product vendor, there are many great ones out there and do your homework - the ones I am personally familiar with and would wholeheartedly recommend are @AmberWolfSec, @remotethreat, @SpecterOps, @OutflankNL and @TrustedSec ❤️

I decided to look into GDID after this, and reading the court document gave some hints. After poking at some stuff I can confidently say I figured out majority of the system end to end. Check it out at github.com/SmtimesIWndr/gdid…

To confirm, we added cet masking support (the first to do so?) back in September '25 - xitter.cf/GigelV41464/status/202… - though this release adds 2 more new, completely different techniques

I've been pretty quiet recently, mainly because we've been cooking up a few things at @MDSecLabs - some of which will be revealed over the next month or so. One of the most exciting things is a HUGE new @nighthawk_c2 release. It's packed with "stacks" of new OpSec - incl. 3 new CET compat masking. But most exciting of all, we have a super sexy new cross platform UI 🔥
Fresh research from the team (@vkamluk / @juanandres_gs) - this one goes back quite awhile!

My thoughts are yes, red teaming has got significantly harder over the last few years. The knock on effect is:
1) engagements need more time,
2) teams who don't invest heavily in R&D (either in-house or outsourced) will be left behind,
3) there's less things shared publicly as a consequence,
4) lots of teams have tried to compensate by assuming breach, which as a result has led to less innovation in the IA space
However, I disagree that IA is anywhere near dead even targeting the top 1%. The vast majority of our engagements have a large IA component and we're still successful in >75% of cases. Yes the points mentioned are a pita - AWL is a great control, but there's equally a plethora of file formats that support scripting; get creative - Yes MOTW restricts some things - but there's a variety of ways around it if you're creative (and I'm not talking about ISOs 🙄)

Don't do this. Don't make this mistake. Do something cooler. Listen to your peers when they recommend reviewing other peoples research.

One of the new features we built for #Nighthawk customers is HawkEye. This is an AI bot built on Opus 4.5 that uses RAG to ingest all the #Nighthawk documentation, sample profiles, APIs, and sample source code. It's able to help explain features, build profiles, write source code for modules and much much more...
