A reverse shell is a type of attack where a compromised system initiates a connection back to an attacker’s machine, giving the attacker control over the victim's system. Unlike traditional shells where the attacker connects to the victim, a reverse shell allows the attacker to bypass firewalls and security measures by making outbound connections. This technique is commonly used in penetration testing and malicious activities to gain remote access to systems.

In this video, we’ll delve into how reverse shells operate, their use in penetration testing, and strategies for defending against such attacks. Understanding reverse shells is essential for securing systems and networks from unauthorized access.
