## How does the Infection Monkey Agent propagate to a new machine?
|
|
|
|
The agent propagates using remote code execution vulnerabilities. Once the
|
|
agent has achieved remote code execution on the victim, it executes commands
|
|
that are similar to the ones described in [manual run
|
|
page.](../../usage/running-manually/)
|
|
|
|
On Windows targets, the agent is copied to `C:\Windows\temp\monkey64.exe`. On
|
|
Linux targets, it is copied to `/tmp/monkey`.
