In the previous section, we worked on our script. In this section, we are going to learn how to compile it to an executable and how to change its icon. The script is written in a scripting language called AutoIt. AutoIt doesn't come preinstalled in Kali, but it gets installed when we install Veil. Since we're using a Veil backdoor, there's no way we could have gotten to this point without having installed Veil. That's why we are not going to cover how to install AutoIt; we can just download it and run the installer using Wine. So, AutoIt should be already installed for us by now, and all we have to do is rename the .txt file and change the extension from .txt to .au3. Then, search for the program in Kali by typing compile and we will see that we have the application that will compile AutoIt scripts for us, as shown...

Overview of this book
This book starts with the basics of ethical hacking, how to practice hacking safely and legally, and how to install and interact with Kali Linux and the Linux terminal. You will explore network hacking, where you will see how to test the security of wired and wireless networks. You’ll also learn how to crack the password for any Wi-Fi network (whether it uses WEP, WPA, or WPA2) and spy on the connected devices.
Moving on, you will discover how to gain access to remote computer systems using client-side and server-side attacks. You will also get the hang of post-exploitation techniques, including remotely controlling and interacting with the systems that you compromised. Towards the end of the book, you will be able to pick up web application hacking techniques. You'll see how to discover, exploit, and prevent a number of website vulnerabilities, such as XSS and SQL injections.
The attacks covered are practical techniques that work against real systems and are purely for educational purposes. At the end of each section, you will learn how to detect, prevent, and secure systems from these attacks.
