You have gained shell on a Windows host and want to find other machines to pivot to, but the rules of engagement state that you can only use tools that are already available. How could you find other machines on the target network?
The 'ping' utility in a for loop can effectively sweep the network to discover other machines. By systematically sending ping requests to a range of IP addresses, you can identify which machines are active and responding.

While trying to transfer her exploit to the target machine, the network intrusion detection systems keeps detecting her exploit and terminating her connection. Which of the following actions will help the penetration tester transfer an exploit and compile it in the target system?
