Windows Privilege Escalation
Real Windows local-privesc reps backed by disposable VM targets, not Linux simulations.
Windows local privilege escalation has its own muscle memory: service DACLs, registry policy, scheduled tasks, writable paths, and tooling such as PowerUp. Practicing that well requires a real Windows host, because the APIs and permissions are the technique.
PwnKata's Windows track starts with PowerUp against a golden-image Windows Server VM. Each rep seeds a vulnerable service, keeps the flag protected, and asks you to enumerate, confirm, and abuse the misconfiguration directly.
