Out-EncryptedScript [-ScriptPath] <String> [-Password] <SecureString> [-Salt] <String>
[[-InitializationVector] <String>] [[-FilePath] <String>]
Out-EncryptedScript will encrypt a script (or any text file for that matter) and output the results to a minimally obfuscated script - evil.ps1 by default.
$Password = ConvertTo-SecureString 'Password123!' -AsPlainText -Force
Out-EncryptedScript .\Naughty-Script.ps1 $Password salty
Encrypt the contents of this file with a password and salt. This will make analysis of the script impossible without the correct password and salt combination. This command will generate evil.ps1 that can dropped onto the victim machine. It only consists of a decryption function 'de' and the base64-encoded ciphertext.
[String] $cmd = Get-Content .\evil.ps1
Invoke-Expression $cmd $decrypted = de password salt Invoke-Expression $decrypted
This series of instructions assumes you've already encrypted a script and named it evil.ps1. The contents are then decrypted and the unencrypted script is called via Invoke-Expression
