Power Without Binaries: Bringing Native Offensive Techniques to Fileless Runtimes

Max Covey

Offense, exploitation & Windows internals

About this talk

What happens when native offensive tradecraft goes fileless? This talk pushes PowerShell beyond scripting, bringing WinAPI, NTAPI, direct and indirect syscalls, and process injection into a managed runtime. Through real-world successes, failures, and a working POC, this talk explores AMSI, CLR, AV/EDR visibility, and AI-assisted development revealing just how far PowerShell can go and what defenders can do to detect it.
