Sınıf: Backdoor
Arka kapılar, kötü niyetli kullanıcıların virüslü bir bilgisayar üzerinde uzaktan denetimini sağlamak için tasarlanmıştır. İşlevsel açıdan, Backdoors, yazılım geliştiricileri tarafından tasarlanan ve dağıtılan birçok yönetim sistemine benzer. Bu tür kötü amaçlı programlar, yazarın virüslü bilgisayarda istediği herhangi bir şeyi yapmasını sağlar: dosya gönderme ve alma, dosyaları başlatma veya silme, mesajları görüntüleme, verileri silme, bilgisayarı yeniden başlatma vb. Bu kategorideki programlar sıklıkla kullanılır. Bir grup kurban bilgisayarını birleştirmek ve bir botnet veya zombi ağı oluşturmak için. Bu, kötü niyetli kullanıcılara, daha sonra, suçlu amaçlar için kullanılabilecek bir virüslü bilgisayar ordusu üzerinde merkezi kontrol sağlar. Ağlar üzerinden yayılabilen ve diğer bilgisayarları Net-Worms gibi etkileyebilen bir Back of grubu da var. Aradaki fark, bu Arka Planların otomatik olarak (Net-Solucanlar yaptığı gibi) yayılmamasıdır, ancak onları kontrol eden kötü niyetli kullanıcının özel bir “komutu” üzerinedir.Platform: Win32
Win32, 32-bit uygulamaların yürütülmesini destekleyen Windows NT tabanlı işletim sistemlerinde (Windows XP, Windows 7, vb.) Bir API'dir. Dünyanın en yaygın programlama platformlarından biri.Aile: Backdoor.Win32.IRCNite

Privilege Escalation
The adversary is trying to gain higher-level permissions.
Privilege Escalation consists of techniques that adversaries use to gain higher-level permissions on a system or network. Adversaries can often enter and explore a network with unprivileged access but require elevated permissions to follow through on their objectives. Common approaches are to take advantage of system weaknesses, misconfigurations, and vulnerabilities. Examples of elevated access include:
* SYSTEM/root level
* local administrator
* user account with admin-like access
* user accounts with access to specific system or perform specific function
These techniques often overlap with Persistence techniques, as OS features that let an adversary persist can execute in an elevated context.

Process Injection: Asynchronous Procedure Call
Adversaries may inject malicious code into processes via the asynchronous procedure call (APC) queue in order to evade process-based defenses as well as possibly elevate privileges. APC injection is a method of executing arbitrary code in the address space of a separate live process.
APC injection is commonly performed by attaching malicious code to the APC Queue (Citation: Microsoft APC) of a process's thread. Queued APC functions are executed when the thread enters an alterable state.(Citation: Microsoft APC) A handle to an existing victim process is first created with native Windows API calls such as
A variation of APC injection, dubbed "Early Bird injection", involves creating a suspended process in which malicious code can be written and executed before the process' entry point (and potentially subsequent anti-malware hooks) via an APC. (Citation: CyberBit Early Bird Apr 2018) AtomBombing (Citation: ENSIL AtomBombing Oct 2016) is another variation that utilizes APCs to invoke malicious code previously written to the global atom table.(Citation: Microsoft Atom Table)
Running code in the context of another process may allow access to the process's memory, system/network resources, and possibly elevated privileges. Execution via APC injection may also evade detection from security products since the execution is masked under a legitimate process.

Access Token Manipulation
Adversaries may modify access tokens to operate under a different user or system security context to perform actions and bypass access controls. Windows uses access tokens to determine the ownership of a running process. A user can manipulate access tokens to make a running process appear as though it is the child of a different process or belongs to someone other than the user that started the process. When this occurs, the process also takes on the security context associated with the new token.
An adversary can use built-in Windows API functions to copy access tokens from existing processes; this is known as token stealing. These token can then be applied to an existing process (i.e. Token Impersonation/Theft) or used to spawn a new process (i.e. Create Process with Token). An adversary must already be in a privileged user context (i.e. administrator) to steal a token. However, adversaries commonly use token stealing to elevate their security context from the administrator level to the SYSTEM level. An adversary can then use a token to authenticate to a remote system as the account for that token if the account has appropriate permissions on the remote system.(Citation: Pentestlab Token Manipulation)

runas command, and the Windows API functions, to create impersonation tokens; it does not require access to an administrator account. There are also other mechanisms, such as Active Directory fields, that can be used to modify access tokens. TA0005
Defense Evasion
The adversary is trying to avoid being detected.
Defense Evasion consists of techniques that adversaries use to avoid detection throughout their compromise. Techniques used for defense evasion include uninstalling/disabling security software or obfuscating/encrypting data and scripts. Adversaries also leverage and abuse trusted processes to hide and masquerade their malware. Other tactics’ techniques are cross-listed here when those techniques include the added benefit of subverting defenses.
