FLARE VM
A collection of software installations scripts for Windows systems
FLARE VM is a security-focused Windows workstation distribution designed for malware analysis, reverse engineering, penetration testing, and threat hunting. It bundles a curated set of tools—disassemblers, debuggers, decompilers, virtualization, forensics utilities, packet capture tools, exploit frameworks, and hex editors—preconfigured to work together. The environment configures paths, dependencies, environment variables, and common tool integrations so analysts can focus on tasks rather than setup. Updates and modular installation let users include only the tools that match their workflow, keeping the VM lean and current. Because security toolchains often clash (DLL versions, signing, privileges), FLARE VM’s packaging handles compatibility issues ahead of time. For investigations involving malware unpacking, sandboxing, static analysis, or code reversing on Windows, the platform dramatically accelerates readiness and consistency across analysts. -

GOAD (Game of Active Directory)
game of active directory
GOAD (Gather Open Attack Data) is a security reconnaissance framework for collecting, enriching, and visualizing open-source intelligence (OSINT) around hosts, domains, and certificates. It automates queries to certificate transparency logs, passive DNS, subdomain enumeration, web endpoints, and other public threat feeds. The tool aggregates results into structured formats and can produce interactive graphs to highlight relationships between entities (e.g. domain → IP → cert → ASN). Analysts can filter, cluster, and explore these relationships to identify infrastructure patterns, potential subdomains, or attack surfaces. Integrations may include metadata like geolocation, WHOIS, and risk scoring to prioritize leads. GOAD helps teams transition from fragmented OSINT tools to a unified reconnaissance dashboard where exploration and filtering are first-class. -

BadUSB
Flipper Zero badusb payload library
This project explores USB device emulation attacks—commonly called BadUSB—by demonstrating how commodity USB hardware can impersonate keyboards, network adapters, or storage devices to perform scripted actions on a host. It typically contains firmware examples, payloads, and explanations showing how a device presenting as a Human Interface Device (HID) can inject keystrokes, open shells, or orchestrate data exfiltration when plugged into a machine. The codebase is frequently intended for security research and defensive testing: defenders and red teams use it to validate endpoint controls, USB whitelisting, and user training. Due to the dual-use nature of such techniques, responsible repositories emphasize lab-only experiments, consent-based testing, and mitigations like disabling autorun, enforcing device policies, and using endpoint detection. -

DeepBlueCLI
PowerShell Module for Threat Hunting via Windows Event Logs
DeepBlueCLI is a PowerShell-centric threat-hunting toolkit built to extract, normalize, and flag suspicious activity from Windows event logs and Sysmon telemetry. It parses common sources—including Windows Security, System, Application, PowerShell logs, and Sysmon event ID 1—then applies a rich set of detection heuristics for things like suspicious account changes, password guessing and spraying, service tampering, PowerShell obfuscation and download-string usage, long or unusual command lines, and credential dumping attempts. Output is emitted as native PowerShell objects so analysts can pipe results to CSV, JSON, HTML, GridView, or custom pipelines for further triage and reporting. The codebase includes helpers for command-line decoding and de-obfuscation (automatic base64/deflate handling), safelisting/hash workflows (DeepBlueHash), and sample EVTX files so teams can test the tool on realistic attack traces. -

Windows Super God Mode
Creates shortcuts to virtually every special location or action built
This project packages a set of Windows tweaks, shortcuts, and convenience scripts that surface many of the OS’s hidden settings and advanced controls into a single, easy-to-use place. It automates creation of “God Mode” folders and other control-panel shortcuts, removes the need to manually hunt through layers of Settings or the Registry, and often bundles helper scripts for common maintenance tasks. The intent is to put power-user features—tweaks for privacy, appearance, power management, and system behavior—within quick reach so administrators and enthusiasts can configure machines consistently. Because many of the actions touch system settings, the collection emphasizes clear instructions and reversible steps so users can roll back changes if needed. It’s valuable for technicians who want a reproducible baseline for customizing Windows installs, or for home users curious about otherwise-obscure controls. -

BloodHound
Six Degrees of Domain Admin
BloodHound is a single-page Javascript web application, built on top of Linkurious, compiled with Electron, with a Neo4j database fed by a C# data collector. BloodHound uses graph theory to reveal the hidden and often unintended relationships within an Active Directory or Azure environment. Attackers can use BloodHound to easily identify highly complex attack paths that would otherwise be impossible to quickly identify. Defenders can use BloodHound to identify and eliminate those same attack paths. Both blue and red teams can use BloodHound to easily gain a deeper understanding of privilege relationships in an Active Directory or Azure environment. BloodHound Enterprise is an Attack Path Management solution that continuously maps and quantifies Active Directory Attack Paths. You can remove millions, even billions of Attack Paths within your existing architecture and eliminate the attacker’s easiest, most reliable, and most attractive techniques. -

TigerSafe
Free open source password manager
TigerSafe is a free open source password manager. It allows to store passwords in a file, without internet, by encrypting them with a single password. The user can then use a different password for every website he wants to use, and only has to remember a single password: the one used to encrypt/decrypt the file storing his passwords. It is highly recommended to do backups of the file storing passwords with TigerSafe, for example copy/paste it in USB flash drives, cloud drives like Google Drive, Dropbox... Indeed, users are solely responsible for their data. TigerSafe also enables you to store the 2-factor authentication mechanism mostly used by modern websites (TOTP 2FA) in a secure way. Since TigerSafe is particularly sensitive, no binary installation file is provided (because it could be infected by a virus, or have a vulnerability in its dependencies such as the JDK implementation used). Instead, installation instructions are provided, and a YouTube video for Windows. -

Invoke-PSImage
Encodes a PowerShell script in the pixels of a PNG file
Invoke-PSImage is a PowerShell utility that hides, extracts, and optionally executes PowerShell payloads inside image files using simple steganography techniques. It can embed a script or binary blob into an image (commonly PNG or JPEG) and later recover that payload without leaving a separate file on disk, enabling in-memory execution workflows. The tool offers options for compression and encryption so the embedded content is both smaller and protected by a passphrase when required. It includes helpers to encode a payload into an image, decode an embedded payload back to readable form, and run the extracted content directly from memory to avoid touching disk. Designed as a compact, single-file PowerShell script, it relies on .NET imaging APIs to manipulate pixel data or metadata and to store the payload in a way that survives ordinary file transfers. -
23
Invoke-TheHash
PowerShell Pass The Hash Utils
Invoke-TheHash is a PowerShell module providing utilities to perform “Pass-the-Hash” style remote operations over WMI and SMB by supplying NTLM hashes instead of plaintext passwords. The project includes multiple scripts/modules (Invoke-WMIExec, Invoke-SMBExec, Invoke-SMBEnum, Invoke-SMBClient, and a wrapper Invoke-TheHash) so operators can choose enumeration, file access, or command execution modes. It uses .NET’s TcpClient for direct SMB/WMI connections and performs authentication by inserting an NTLM hash into the NTLMv2 protocol flow. The module supports both local accounts and domain accounts (via domain parameter), and it accepts either LM:NTLM or pure NTLM format hashes. For command execution, it can create services on remote hosts (SMBExec style) or use WMI class methods. Since it works over network protocols rather than relying on built-in Windows clients, it can bypass some limitations or restrictions in constrained environments. -

MicroBurst
A collection of scripts for assessing Microsoft Azure security
MicroBurst is a PowerShell toolkit from NetSPI focused on assessing Microsoft Azure security by automating discovery, enumeration, and targeted auditing of cloud services and configurations. It bundles many functions to enumerate Azure resources (subscriptions, VMs, storage accounts, container registries, App Services and more), probe common misconfigurations, and harvest sensitive artifacts when available (for example storage blobs, keys, automation account credentials, and other subscription-level secrets). The project exposes both interactive helpers and scripted commands (e.g., Invoke-EnumerateAzureBlobs, Invoke-EnumerateAzureSubDomains, REST-based VM command execution and storage key retrieval routines) so operators can pivot from discovery to validated proof-of-concept actions during authorized penetration tests. -

Nishang
Offensive PowerShell for red team and penetration testing
Nishang is a framework and collection of scripts and payloads which enables usage of PowerShell for offensive security, penetration testing and red teaming. Nishang is useful during all phases of penetration testing. Import all the scripts in the current PowerShell session (PowerShell v3 onwards). Use the individual scripts with dot sourcing. Note that the help is available for the function loaded after running the script and not the script itself since version 0.3.8. In all cases, the function name is same as the script name. Nishang scripts are flagged by many Anti Viruses as malicious. The scrripts on a target are meant to be used in memory which is very easy to do with PowerShell. Two basic methods to execute PowerShell scripts in memory. Use the in-memory dowload and execute: Use below command to execute a PowerShell script from a remote shell, meterpreter native shell, a web shell etc. and the function exported by it.
