PersistenceSniper is a PowerShell module for hunting persistence mechanisms implanted in Windows machines. It is aimed at Blue Teams, Incident Responders, and System Administrators and covers around 60 known persistence techniques.

Use cases

  • find malware persistence on a compromised windows host
  • hunt registry run keys and scheduled tasks used for persistence
  • incident response triage of a windows machine
  • audit autostart locations for suspicious entries
  • check a windows endpoint for implanted persistence techniques

When to choose

  • you are on a blue team or doing incident response on windows
  • you need a quick, signed PowerShell module to enumerate known persistence mechanisms
  • you are a sysadmin auditing autostart persistence on windows endpoints

When to avoid

  • you need deep malware analysis or dynamic detonation rather than persistence enumeration
  • you need cross-platform hunting on linux or macos
  • you need real-time EDR-style continuous monitoring
