VBA Macros in 2025 : hacking | Torhoo darknet markets

Your problem with PowerShell (especially IEX) is due to the behavior analysis of AV/EDR systems. PowerShell is considered a so-called LOLBin (Living Off the Land Binary) – a legitimate tool with high potential for abuse. That's why security solutions are very sensitive to typical attack patterns.
What you can do:

🔹 Better camouflage PowerShell:
Base64-encode your command with -EncodedCommand.
Use string splitting or reversal: e.g. (“{2}{1}{0}” -f ‘X’,'E',‘I’).

🔹 Other Windows tools (LOLbins) instead of PowerShell:
These tools are often less conspicuous because they are used in everyday admin tasks:
certutil.exe: File download via -urlcache -split -f.
bitsadmin.exe: File transfer in the background.
mshta.exe: Executes .htafiles with embedded scripts.
regsvr32.exe: Loads remote scripts via scrobj.dll(/i:http://...).
wscript.exe/ cscript.exe: Executes VBS or JS, even from NTFS ADS.

🔹 File-less techniques (advanced):
Save code in the Windows registry and execute it from there.
Compile remote code via msbuild.exe or csc.exe in the RAM and start it without a file on disk.

VBA macros are no longer a thing on updated systems in 2025. Microsoft killed macros last year? or the year before
