This tool allows users to list, analyze, and modify scheduled tasks on both local and remote systems.

It supports a variety of trigger modifications and includes built-in features for cleaning up after operations to restore original task settings.

ModTask is a crucial asset for cybersecurity professionals, requiring administrative access to effectively manage scheduled tasks across environments.

ModTask is a C# Red Teaming Attack Tool that can be utilized for:

  • Listing Scheduled Tasks along with their SDDL strings and key information, locally and remotely.
  • Selecting a specific Scheduled Task for a detailed overview of its configuration settings.
  • Modifying a Scheduled Task, locally and remotely. Utilizing either an Exe file path and arguments or a COM object Class ID for execution. Useful for lateral movement and persistence scenarios.
  • Supports mutiple trigger modifications such as Startup Boot Triggers and Daily Triggers with Repetition Patterns.
  • Built in cleanup functionality to revert the task to its orginal state before any modifications had taken place.
