I would be grateful if any of the community could point me in the right direction regarding using PowerShell to enhance my security skills, at the moment I use Linux almost exclusively in pentesting and to tell the truth im none too fond of it

I can see the possibilities however im not a great coder and id love to see a Cyber Security Manager (sort of like a Kali Distro) to help me with my work

I mean what are the possibilities can Nmap and other top notch tools be incorporated into such a tool

Any links scripts or blogs would be warmly appreciated

You’ll probably want to take a look at PowerSploit. [https://www.pentestgeek.com/2013/09/18/invoke-shellcode/](https://www.pentestgeek.com/2013/09/18/invoke-shellcode/)
