Description

This module suggests persistence modules that can be used.
The modules are suggested based on the architecture and platform
that the user has a shell opened as well as the available exploits
in meterpreter.
It's important to note that not all modules will be checked.
Exploits are chosen based on these conditions: session type,
platform, architecture, and required default options.
