Run Monkey

To run the monkey, select one of the following options:

  1. Click Run on C&C Server to run the Infection Monkey on the Monkey Island server. This simulates an attacker trying to propagate from a machine in the Monkey Island subnet.
  2. Click Run on machine of your choice to download and execute the Infection Monkey on a machine of your choice. Then follow the instructions and execute the generated command on the machine of your choice. This simulates an attacker who has breached one of your servers. The Monkey will map all accessible machines and their open services and try to steal credentials and use its exploits to propagate.

As the Infection Monkey continues, the map should be filled with accessible and “hacked” machines. Once all the Infection Monkeys have finished propagating, click Reports (see Infection Monkey Reports).

Congratulations, you finished first successful execution of the Infection Monkey! 🎉 To thoroughly test your network, you can run the Infection Monkey from different starting locations using different configurations.
