# Pentest Lateral Movement
## Stage
- PTES: 6
- MITRE: TA0008
## Objective
Map movement graph edges and credential reuse attack opportunities.
## Required Workflow
1. Validate scope before any active action and reject out-of-scope targets.
2. Run only authorized checks aligned to PTES, OWASP WSTG, NIST SP 800-115, and MITRE ATT&CK.
3. Write findings in canonical finding_schema format with reproducible PoC notes.
4. Honor dry-run mode and require explicit --i-have-authorization for live execution.
5. Export deterministic artifacts for downstream skill consumption.
## Execution
```bash
python skills/pentest-lateral-movement/scripts/lateral_movement.py --scope scope.json --target <target> --input <path> --output <path> --format json --dry-run
```
## Outputs
- `pivot-map.json`
- `lateral-findings.json`
- `lateral-report.json`
## References
- `references/tools.md`
- `skills/autonomous-pentester/shared/scope_schema.json`
