Building Malware with Python: Write your own malware such as ransomware, keyloggers and reverse shells from scratch using the Python programming language

by Abdeladim Fadheli

A malware is a computer program designed to attack a computer system. Malware is often used to steal data from a user's computer or damage a computer system. In this book, we will learn how to build malware using Python. Below are the programs we will be

Ransomware: We will make a program that can encrypt any file or folder in the system. The encryption key is derived from a password; therefore, we can only give the password when the ransom is paid.Keylogger: We will make a program that can log all the keys pressed by the user and send it via email or report to a file we can retrieve later.Reverse Shell: We will build a program to execute shell commands and send the results back to a remote machine. After that, we will add even more features to the reverse shell, such as taking screenshots, recording the microphone, extracting hardware and system information, and downloading and uploading any file.
