The issue of internal security is always important. Mimikatz is a great post-exploitation tool written by Benjamin Delpy (gentilkiwi). Many times after the initial operation phase, the attackers may need to get a firm foothold in the computer / network. This often requires a set of tools. Mimikatz attempt to tie together some of the most useful tasks that cybercriminals want to perform. Mimikatz supports 64-bit and 32-bit Windows architecture.

This is important as this will always occur no matter what process Mimikatz is injected into and cannot be obfuscated via in-memory execution or a packed exe.

 

Requesting libraries in DLL unique solution DER Soot as a result only 17 processes. That’s great, because fingerprints for Mimikatz is unique from other processes, resulting in very few false positives.
