MALWARE
IN THE WILD

Forget theory. This course teaches you how to design, write, and deploy offensive tooling that mimics the complexity and stealth of state-sponsored actors.

Mission Briefing

Modern endpoint protection (EDR) has made traditional red teaming difficult. Running msfvenom or downloading a pre-compiled tool is a guaranteed way to get caught.

Malware in the Wild bridges the gap between script-kiddie tools and nation-state tradecraft. We strip away the abstractions of Python and C# to work directly with C, Assembly, and the Windows API.

Prerequisites

  • Basic understanding of C/C++ syntax
  • Familiarity with command line
  • A Windows 10/11 VM for testing

Target Audience

  • Red Team Operators
  • Malware Analysts
  • Security Researchers

Windows Internals

Master the PE format, memory management, and the native API (Nt/Zw functions).

C & Assembly

Write position-independent shellcode and custom loaders from scratch.

EDR Evasion

Bypass hooks using indirect syscalls, API hashing, and PPID spoofing.

Persistence

Advanced techniques to maintain access across reboots and updates.

★★★★★

"The module on Indirect Syscalls was worth the price alone. I finally understand how to bypass user-mode hooks reliably."

Freq. Asked Questions

Yes. This course teaches defensive security through an offensive lens (Red Teaming). All techniques are taught for educational and authorized testing purposes only.
Basic C knowledge helps, but we start from the ground up with environment setup and simple 'Hello World' implants. If you understand variables and functions, you are good to go.
Yes. EDRs evolve, and so do we. You get lifetime access to all future module updates without paying extra.
You get instant access to the dashboard. You can log in, view the full syllabus, and start compiling your first payload immediately.
