CrowdStrike Exam CCFH-202 Topic 10 Question 12 Discussion

Weaponization is the stage of the Cyber Kill Chain where the actor does not interact with the victim endpoint(s). Weaponization is where the actor prepares or packages the exploit or payload that will be used to compromise the target. This stage does not involve any communication or interaction with the victim endpoint(s), as it is done by the actor before delivering the weaponized content. Exploitation, Command & Control, and Installation are all stages where the actor interacts with the victim endpoint(s), either by executing code, establishing communication, or installing malware.
