Trueee

I think places in the US even still use dial up.

[finite basalt]

The countryside in the UK and Ireland is truly countryside, no phone signal or proper internet depending on the area

I've been in places in the country side with phone signal in one corner of the house 🤣 that signal was the only access you had to the internet

[brisk tree]

Just cut my finger so badly 😭🤣🤣🤣🤣

[finite basalt]

Oof what'd you cut it on?

[polar spoke]

looking at Speedtest.net, the UK MEDIAN is 101

Wow so rude scrubz

a useless internet point (what is that) ? for saying thank you ?

[crude stump]

[sick lance]

Yeah, it just shows mods who is helpful.

I think its being removed soon

[ancient zealot]

sorry i am confused so is that a bad thing (which is what i would guess)

[crude stump]

It’s not

No, its a good thing

The try hack me free account has provide a certificate or not ??

[exotic path]

am i going to learn how to hack?

[sick lance]

Ethically yes.

[sick lance]

No, you'll need a sub to finish paths

[ornate atlas]

Yeah that right 👍🏻 Thanks bro

There is any paths that totally freely available bro ??

[tawny magnet]

77% of the information is free

[pine stratus]

start with basics and if you like what are you doing buy a sub 🙂

[near hawk]

Pretty sure only certificate you get for free from learning path is pre security

[devout palm]

You can use the search feature and see every single free room on TryHackMe (:

You can also follow the paths, but skip the paid ones

[exotic path]

have you guys accoplished anything since learning this?

[devout palm]

I mean, they have solid information. They made me improve a lot of skills.

[ornate atlas]

I'll try to do, complete the path!

[exotic path]

if you do dont forget to invite me on ur path to start washing money

im kidding

[devout palm]

Honestly, paid ones are worth it. But I do suggest completing the free ones until you are satisfied, then purchasing a subscription.

[ornate atlas]

For sure, I'm bagging you to washing my money 🤑💰 (BCS I don't have a piece of panny , for now 😂😂😂)

I'd ask for more pics of the cat, but I also don't wanna look like I'm building an OSINT file on you...

what a dilemma...

hey everyone! does anyone know what it means when a room says it has x days of access left? what happens in x days?

it's just a regular room in the devsecops path

[devout palm]

It makes you leave the room, in order to keep the network stable.

[wintry sluice]

you get removed from the room to save resources. you can rejoin afterwards though

[devout palm]

You can re-join afterwards

[narrow widget]

oh okay then

thanks

[muted cairn]

Hi everyone, I am quite new not only to cybersecurity but THM and Discord. I'm sorry for the noob question and apologize in advance if this is the wrong location. I am having issues subscribing to THM both debit cards I'm attempting to use wont allow an international charge? Do I need to contact the card issuer?

[naive violet]

Yeah I'd contact them

[muted cairn]

Awesome. Thank you for your response. Has anyone else had these types of issues?

[twin ridge]

Gave +1 Rep to @naive violet (current: #2 - 2119)

[naive violet]

International payments or the word "hack" in the name often upsets stuff

[muted cairn]

Ahh got it. That makes sense. Thank you again!

[naive violet]

THM is a UK company but I'm not sure who they're using for payments now

[shut hawk]

[e-mail] is the email

[muted cairn]

I tried using a walmart money card and they were like nope! Then tried my actual debit card and same thing. I will have to contact them on Monday.

[naive violet]

Oh those prepaid cards are used too often for fraud

Always used to be turned off

[muted cairn]

I looked at my bank site and they were saying that I most likely can just notify them of an international charge before I make it and it wont get declined. Any suggestions where to start since I cant finish the pre security learning path until I get this sorted out?

[tawny widget]

What do you want to achieve/what is your goal and what is your prior experience?

[muted cairn]

Im mostly a beginner, Im really trying to get just the fundamentals down. Networking, Linux maybe some Python. Im interested in both network security and possibly some pentesting.

Ive done a few beginner online courses for Linux and Python and recently started some networking courses like CCNA prep courses

[tawny widget]

Thats neat! I just started my journey a week ago as well and getting started. You should be able to do alot of the free courses as well if I am not mistaking for alot of the fundamentals. I started doing research as well on what books to get, which certs you will eventually need and started with Python, alot of it via youtube tutorials or the CS50 Course on youtube

[muted cairn]

Nice! I started just about 2-3 weeks ago and I absolutely love it! What are you focusing on Nvt?

[cosmic pendant]

Take notes

[tawny widget]

Well, in the far future I´d like to switch careers and get a job in Cybersecurity, especially pentesting. Right now I just know that I know nothing and thats fine haha, gathering resources and gaining basic knowledge so I can start studying it next year in university.

you should verify too @muted cairn 😄

[muted cairn]

I absolutely am taking notes...for the first time in my life lol

[muted cairn]

I thought I had, I got the email and verified with my phone number

[cosmic pendant]

on disc, it's a different thing

[muted cairn]

ahh ok. Thank you! Ill brb lol

[twin ridge]

Gave +1 Rep to @cosmic pendant (current: #37 - 197)

[naive violet]

So that's verifying with the discord platform
We're talking about linking your tryhackme account to your discord account for your levels etc

[muted cairn]

Ok I think I got it

[tawny widget]

You did

[naive violet]

Ayy, congratulations

[muted cairn]

Thank you for showing me!

[twin ridge]

Gave +1 Rep to @naive violet (current: #2 - 2120)

[naive violet]

Means we (the mods) know you're a THM user too

Oh that wasn't me but I'll take the rep

[muted cairn]

Thank you again everyone. Im glad to have joined both THM and the Discord channel. My coworkers are sick of hearing about my journey lol

[tawny widget]

Haha, yeah my friends and coworkers are too. Its nice to find like minded people and newbs here, makes everything seem less overwhelming

[buoyant tree]

[nova hornet]

hey

[lament tendon]

The place I am living at for university the next three months straight up has no Wifi. :)

Yeay.

[tawny magnet]

amazing, you got ethernet right?

[lament tendon]

No.

[tawny magnet]

[lament tendon]

I got my phones mobile data. :3

£%^%#$^#$

[buoyant tree]

Question, could you somehow make your phone's hotspot on and relay it to a router to repeat a signal

[lament tendon]

There is no router.

[buoyant tree]

don't you have your own/

[lament tendon]

There is no connector to connect the router to either.

Will prolly buy one of those fancy 4/5G mobile routers.

[buoyant tree]

hmm

probably your best solution

I should probably be doing something smarter than waiting for a service to restart other than to do it while typing out sudo docker ps

[blazing granite]

good afternoon people

[buoyant tree]

How's your day going

[blazing granite]

Meh, 😂

[shell nova]

well that was fun...

my cat wants to teach me to hunt apparently

[buoyant tree]

Who's winning?

[shell nova]

I won with a shoebox and a bit of cardboard. the field mouse is back outside

[blazing granite]

@buoyant tree what about you?

[buoyant tree]

It's the day I upgrade or recheck all my software choices down to the services I use

so terrible

trying out a couple new music players

trying out virtualbox

trying out other note taking apps

other browserse

[blazing granite]

I have never heard of patch Sunday 😉 😂

[buoyant tree]

eh its once every month usually

It's to counter the feeling of me not using something better

[blazing granite]

which one?

[buoyant tree]

trying out brave right now

[blazing granite]

That's my second browser

[buoyant tree]

currently my taskbar

[blazing granite]

FF default and Brave for things that goes well with chomium based browser

[buoyant tree]

eh, brave doesn't work with local banks

neither does firefox

only chrome

they did something utterly forbidden

Blocked all ua's except chrome

and I could spoof my UA but thats too much effort

[blazing granite]

I only used chrome on my work laptop, because it was installed and made default

[shut hawk]

Oh did they update the obsidian icon?

[buoyant tree]

hasn't that been that always

[blazing granite]

on Linux is thinner and upside down, I believe

[buoyant tree]

hmm

vlc logo also different

[blazing granite]

Since I remember the icon is like that

I usually use mpv media much more than vlc I just using vlc right now because of subtitles, the subtitles were in a format that mpv didn't pick up automatically, so I used vlc 🙂

[oak river]

Good evening wonderful server

[blazing granite]

I like mpv media because has no borders

[shut hawk]

not as detailed

[blazing granite]

still afternoon here 🙂

[oak river]

23:47 here

Or 11:47 PM I think?

[buoyant tree]

your's has less contrast

[blazing granite]

you're 6 hours behind, the same time zone as where I live, now I'm in Argentina visiting my family

[blazing granite]

the same 😂

[buoyant tree]

nop, your's is also more curved

[blazing granite]

Are you calling me curvaceous? 😉 😂 😛

[buoyant tree]

nop, just your VLC logo

pihole seems to be doing its job, although the total domains blocked amount always changes between 10-11k

it never goes up

even if I count it manually for the last 24h

[blazing granite]

that's a trouble name, just go figure if you need to shut it down and say I'm going to shutdown my pihole 😂

[buoyant tree]

eh it does block the domains

I also blocked windows checking if the internet is up

so it always shows that I don't have internet

[shut hawk]

Poor windows

[buoyant tree]

arghh I give up on navidrome

can't install it

[buoyant tree]

Question, how's the tech flea market there

[rapid merlin]

i got a dumb question

is hacking similar to doxxing

i wanna learn to dox but idk where to go

[blazing granite]

did you google it?

[tawny magnet]

@sick lance

[buoyant tree]

@shell nova knows best

[shell nova]

No you don't

[shell nova]

Doxxing is stupid and generally illegal

[sick lance]

Yes, I have.

[blazing granite]

also it doesn't run well on usb, I learned that the hard way too 😂

[buoyant tree]

framework?

[blazing granite]

if you have the cash to spear go for it, because to run it easily that laptop won't be cheap 😂

never trust minimal requirements, if the laptop boot that's consider minimal, if it's usable that another story 😂

[worn thorn]

@normal verge no unsolicited dm please.

[oak river]

Damn, the NMAP room is big, but worth it

Now I noticed that actually the flags could be connected in terms of syntax to what they do

[molten sky]

^ nmap room is a good room

[spice adder]

very valuable

[blazing granite]

I bet i7 at least to run qubes

[worn thorn]

@normal verge mate... friendrequest will not help. Ye broke the same rule twice.

[sick lance]

@normal verge everything OK there?

soory i just joined the discord group minutes ago.i just wanted to get to the the environment more and get help on this ethicall hacking issue.soory you to bother you mate

[worn thorn]

Gonna get into thm again before I fall back into the "just watch videos and game" phase

though voices of the void is a great game to just steal your time

[oak river]

Wait, gime a sec

[blazing granite]

@buoyant tree are you prepare for Eid al-Fitr 🙂

[oak river]

So Nmap can basically also launch scripts on targets?

And not just check for ports and scan for info?

Through the NSE?

[worn thorn]

yep.

[lavish shell]

Of course, with games like World of Haiku, you can get your gaming in as well as training on your hacking skills

[oak river]

That's interesting. And here I thought NMAP was only a recon tool

[buoyant tree]

yup

[worn thorn]

nse is a powerful engine that can assist you if used right.

[worn thorn]

never heard of that

[oak river]

I'll take note of that

Wish there was an NMAP cert

[buoyant tree]

Got movies, games, tv shows, food all planned out

[oak river]

Although some of you may not respect certs, a cert is like a medal of finishing a marathon

You could already do it, but it brings great joy and ensures your confidence when you get it

[lavish shell]

It's a game on Steam, it provides certifications after completing different things that can be used on resumes

[worn thorn]

Might not be available in my region.

[blazing granite]

The food is amazing! I've been blessed and had the privilege to be invited to a few Eid meals 🙂

[sand trench]

Notice: World of Haiku is no longer available on the Steam store.

[buoyant tree]

nice

desi style iftari or arabic style

[sand trench]

not to mention their subscripiton module being ludicrious in price for basic tier compared to full tier

[blazing granite]

Arabic style I live in Israel and I have some Arab friends and coworkers.

[lavish shell]

Who mentioned a subscription?

[blazing granite]

Here in Argentina, where I'm visiting my family I don't know any families to go for Eid

[buoyant tree]

oh k

[proven quartz]

Yeah but if you search for it, there's a collection called Robot Infested Metroidvanias that looks kinda fun

[sand trench]

their website to where they moved the game after steam

[sand trench]

fair

[boreal scarab]

It's (one of) the basis technologies for containers.

[normal verge]

hello gys, does tryhackme have more walkthrough contents than htb? anybodies opinions

[blazing granite]

It's like the different neighbourhoods of NY 😂

[oak river]

Xmas is a pretty smexy name for a type of nmap scan

[rapid merlin]

sounds Legit.

[molten sky]

any LoL nerds here
don't know shit about fuck and need a clarification about a website

[crude stump]

I’m a laugh out loud nerd

[molten sky]

🤨

[oak river]

Was thinking about League of Legends

Btw, if I have a blog that is not really secure and is hosted on a wordpress server, what is the worst that could happen? Someone defacing my webpage?

Its on a free plan

[molten sky]

are you familiar with ewu/op[.]gg

[chilly veldt]

Op.gg yes

I have used that

[molten sky]

depends on what insecure means
could dump some malicious stuff on there as well

[oak river]

No idea

[crude stump]

Are you planning to have people visit your blog ox

[oak river]

What is it though?

Yeah, but in the distant future

[molten sky]

patching some sherlock bugs rn and Euw/op is being a pain. What's the difference? Euw seems to redirect to op.gg but not sure if that was a name change or an acquisition or what

[oak river]

Its online right now, but almost no visitors if none at all

99% none visitors

[chilly veldt]

Only know about op, haven't heard about euw

[molten sky]

agh

[crude stump]

You should be fine then. I would worry about it more if people are actually going to it

Like productivity said they could inject malicious code and stuff in it and the people that go to it then get infected

[oak river]

I see

By the way

I used to use terminator to work with multiple tabs through the CLI

Now I just saw that the normal QTerminal also has that on kali

So basically terminator isn't really useful anymore?

[molten sky]

all just preference

[oak river]

Or maybe terminator has a bit more tweaks I think

Anyways, enough THM for today, it's 2:30 AM

How can I redeem this one?

[mossy river]

You need to wait for your subscription to expire before you can apply a voucher

[rapid merlin]

my sub is going to end @ 14th of this month, is voucher gonna expire by then?

[mossy river]

No :)

[rapid merlin]

I thought it expires in 48hrs?

😄

well, I'm happy today.

[crude stump]

Saw that, it’s literally so crazy

There definitely should be proper precautions banks and other stuff should have when there dealing with information over phone calls

[blazing granite]

I believe you can't publish the link until it has been tested and approved by THM stuff

[whole yew]

Last I heard, it was against the THM policy to allow creators to distribute private room codes like this - my understanding is that all rooms have to go through QA before being released, and advertisting this way defeats the purpose of having QA for community rooms.

Please verify your THM account with the bot, and we can give you a room-creator role so you can have a communication channel with the appropriate THM staff on discord

[thorny walrus]

woah when did you get admin?

[rough lagoon]

I've verified my THM account using a bot, What now?

[simple kernel]

hey guys, excuse me, is there any service similar to THM that teaches AI instead?

[crude stump]

wouldnt that be programming basically

you wanna make your own ai?

woohoo just finished both of the zeek rooms

that was fun

[simple kernel]

yes i want to

[simple kernel]

sure it would be programming, but there are some kind of a hidden layer or something as i haven't make any AI before

so i don't understand much about it

[crude stump]

hit the mother load https://pll.harvard.edu/subject/artificial-intelligence

by harvard too

oh wait

hm

[simple kernel]

ahh i mean next year, i would take 3 uni courses

hahahaha

so i am not really looking much into a uni course

rather than a

an online course

i saw some courses on UDEMY

[crude stump]

thats online

hit learn more

[simple kernel]

right right, well, i haven't tried any harvard course before

but i will see

[crude stump]

worth a shot. might be really good especially because its harvard

[simple kernel]

right, probably

[crude stump]

oh

udemy

hm

[simple kernel]

but it seems like

a non premade course

it's a course that you have to attend day by day

this one looks actually really good

[simple kernel]

i will absolutely look into it

thank you very much

for now, i awill just wait until i finish the uni year

[crude stump]

No problem

[simple kernel]

then i can have all my time for AI

and cyber

have you played a game called

screeps?

[crude stump]

Never heard of it

Is it good

[simple kernel]

i didn't invest much time into it but it's seems pretty pretty cool

a strategy game on

steam

where all your units are programmed

by you

using java script

:P

i really wanted to get into it but i didn't

yet at least

Gave +1 Rep to @crude stump (current: #141 - 48)

[crude stump]

What type of assignment wis

[candid pagoda]

university. its like a research based one in cyber forensics

[gritty fern]

Hello people

[worn thorn]

greetings

Gonna bother my companies "IT" again why they don't allow the usage of security keys.

[gritty fern]

Why IT in quotes

[molten sky]

probably just Brenda

[worn thorn]

because they behave like monkeys

[molten sky]

she's in accounting

[molten sky]

also valid

[gritty fern]

Lmao

I mean thats pretty common i feel like

The company is working for does

[devout palm]

Hai

[worn thorn]

They prefer SMS and microsoft auth over everything else.

[gritty fern]

Microsoft is just annoying, also maybe just me but i dont like the random auth numbers in my phone all the time

[worn thorn]

It is indeed annoying.

[molten sky]

ms? sure

sms? preferred? fire them

[worn thorn]

Maybe they dislike me because I used tor once to access outlook and after three years decided to block my 2FA method (Aegis Authenticator). I couldn't even remove it from my company issued Microsoft account before talking to them.

[worn thorn]

That would be nice.

[gritty fern]

Send your pfp duck after them

[worn thorn]

heh

It's a goose but I'll let it slide.

[gritty fern]

oh you said that

Oopsie doopsie

[worn thorn]

[gritty fern]

Silly geese

[candid pagoda]

anyone main in forensics?

[gritty fern]

Actually speaking of what is forensics? Ive seen it on THM before but idk what it is

actually ill just google it lol

Oh thats cool

[visual terrace]

[sick lance]

We don't help with coursework/homework

[twin ridge]

➕ Gave the role Creators-Lounge to mrmrmrmrr

[candid pagoda]

its not a direct help

i want an opinion

[sick lance]

Then what is it?

[candid pagoda]

what?

if u cant its fine

ill find someone else

[boreal scarab]

@naive violet https://youtube.com/shorts/G5q0VvTCYEI?si=vA1XwbX6E0ljRDk6 check this out, this is cool as hell

[sick lance]

Okay, if that's how you feel.

And I mean "cant" as in, it could be cheating which is against the server rules. 🙂

[candid pagoda]

i dont think asking someones opinion is "cheating" also we are allowed to interview an actual forensic investigator but yeah fine

rules are rules i guess

[sick lance]

Well if it's an interview you need, we don't allow them as protection of our members, you'd need to ask our Admin team for permission.

[candid pagoda]

no need thanks

[worn thorn]

Great. Microsoft experiences high demand right now... Can't even properly contact my IT department to bother them

[chilly veldt]

Got a couple of meetings today, will be fun

[dire holly]

for bug bounty we should study which bugs

[chilly veldt]

Web related ones I guess

[rapid merlin]

Good luck

[vital dock]

Hey Guys, i have a question for you all. Is the monthly or the annual supscription more worth it? Like is there content for a whole year?

[brisk tree]

Morning

[chilly veldt]

there's more than enough content

[jaunty prairie]

why not start with a month, and check it out? Content seems to be in the boatloads...so I think you will have enough for a year and then some lol

I am curious what the average turn around time is from zero-day to room content? guess it would depend how long before a public PoC is released or created

[chilly veldt]

depends on if it's room worthy

[sick lance]

Nah. All sub content is open regardless of month/annual

[jaunty prairie]

I think they mean if they get a year sub, will they run out of content before the end of the year.

I had that issue with letsdefend, paid for a year and havn't touched it in 6 months.

[sick lance]

There's more than enough content.

There's over 800 public rooms.

Even if you do one a day.

And they're always releasing atleast 2 a week.

[worn thorn]

the plaintext password in memory keepass 2 was also turned down but that was because they didn't accepted walkthrough rooms at that time.

afaik

[vital dock]

Is there a Voucher for the anual subsription?

[sick lance]

Only student.

Even then, AFAIK if you buy the yearly sub, you only pay for 9 months, so you get 3 free.

[jaunty prairie]

hmmm vouchers....maybe I can slip a request to one in the bosses inbox 🙂

[hazy flume]

good morning

good morning scrubz

[lone drift]

Hi......
I am trying to reproduce this Moniker Link (CVE-2024-21413) without TryHackMe room
I have kali linux running in my VMWare locally in my windows laptop and outlook with vulnerable version in same windows laptop

I am trying to capture NTLM hash but not able to do it... can someone help me

[sick lance]

Are you doing this on your host?

[spice adder]

just got notice im in the siemens hall of thanks as of this morning :D

spot the stuub (doxxed myself)

[lone drift]

Yes..... And i am following this py file to send mail. I can succesfully able to send mail to test outlook account. But when i try to listen to responder and click the link, I am not seeing any hash getting captured
https://github.com/Mdusmandasthaheer/CVE-2024-21413-Microsoft-Outlook-Remote-Code-Execution-Vulnerability/blob/main/outlook-exploit.py

And in that py file, I am mentioning my Kali linux ip in moniker link and sending it......

[sick lance]

Perhaps something on your host can be blocking it, it's not good practice anyway to experiment with your host device.

I suggest using a Windows VM, you could break your host.

This is just my opinion though.

[brisk tree]

getting a live project today for my pen testing internship so excited

[lone drift]

You are saying my windows laptop blocking something....ok
I have rollbacked my outlook with previous vulnerable version...... even though its not working
I am a student and my assignment involves using my own machine and not allowed to use outside machines.... not sure if my professor accepts when i use TryHackMe room to demonstrate

[sick lance]

Ah, so this is school work..

Sorry, we can't help with this.

[sick lance]

Do you know what on?

[lone drift]

👍

@astral grove done congrats.

[astral grove]

Thanks 😁

Gave +1 Rep to @sick lance (current: #1 - 2144)

[brisk tree]

not yet. I was told by the main guy who runs it hes impressed with me and i had a perfect pen test report. made me so happy

[sick lance]

Did Ego help you? 👀

[brisk tree]

no

i dont get help from anyon

if i cant do something myself i dont do it at all

im not one of those girls 😂

[chilly veldt]

I just had to go to a customer

Good day everyone!

[hexed turret]

quick question I haven't been in THM in a long time I see the view change but I don't see questions for the room, why?

do I have to click somewhere?

[sick lance]

#site-support please, but not usually, it should be there.

[brisk tree]

about what

[chilly veldt]

some tech stuff and produc thingy, turned out to be just a 30 minute small talk

[brisk tree]

damn

[severe seal]

what modern pentest report generator you can suggest?

[worn thorn]

le brain with some guides.

[oak river]

So that's how easy it is to intercept HTTP traffic

We have to remember the S at the end

[worn thorn]

it is indeed really easy to listen.

[oak river]

I imagine how vulnerable are people on public wifi using http websites

[bold dawn]

the best way is to find/make a template, and use to to craft it manually

you're being paid for the report, not a machine generated response

[grizzled crystal]

Actually, report generation is fine in the sense that it's just using a template. You're not just blindly copying down pre-generated findings, it's usually just a tool that speeds up the process

Open source ones that I know of are writehat, pwndoc, sysraptor

coffee shops are usually a common place for these attacks

[sick lance]

Or VPN's

[oak river]

Aside from looking through the arp replies in wireshark, is there some filter that filters only reply requests?

Trying to google something for a while, but fail to find anything

There is opcode reply and opcode request, but I cant figure how do you set a filter for that

Found out

arp.opcode==2

[worn thorn]

I once captured my ftp traffic that I use to sync files between my phone and pc to see if it was really was sftp or not. It wasn't. After a while I noticed I was using the wrong port...

[sick lance]

[worn thorn]

1337 and 7331 looks almost identical in some fonts

[timid prism]

maybe its time for specs

[worn thorn]

I already have some and well I'm still blind.

[timid prism]

try getting the specs a pair of specs

[worn thorn]

thick glasses

I'm still sad that my eyes are so bad that VR is blurry even after getting optics.

[oak river]

Yeah, we have to protect our eyes

[worn thorn]

say that to my younger me. I somehow got through most of school being blind.

[crude stump]

I’m looking straight at the sun

Jk

[worn thorn]

Sun always stares back

[oak river]

Problem is you can never outstare it

[crude stump]

Until your blind

[worn thorn]

also not outpace it in the setting direction

[vagrant kraken]

Hi all. Best method to study without getting burned?

[oak river]

Pomodoro method

Perhaps

What I do is take it slow until I get tired, then I just finish whatever I do if there is little to do until the end

Get up, eat walk around the room

Think about something else

Lie in bed for 10-15 mins

But also use OneNote or just take notes

[vagrant kraken]

So how long do you study for continuous

[oak river]

Sometimes 1 hour sometimes a bit more, depends on the material that I study

If you review stuff

Usually it takes longer to burnout

If you learn something new, burnout is faster

[vagrant kraken]

Yea me too after an hour I go nuts

I am burnt and have already gained 30-+ new badges

But now reading nist 2.0 and dizzy

[oak river]

heh

[vagrant kraken]

Plus I have to give exams on the 29/4 for isc2

[oak river]

Well, good luck then

Consistency is the main key

[vagrant kraken]

Thank you I think I'll focus more on isc2

[oak river]

Btw, if I want to browse the deep web for fun. Do you advice setting up a device that I dont really need to use on a DMZ on my home network?

[vagrant kraken]

Tails usb and Kali Linux

[oak river]

I know

Tails honestly

Why would I use Kali

Also parrot is good too

Has anon mode

[vagrant kraken]

Yea why true

Disable saving

[brisk tree]

trying to log into my banking app on my new phone and it asked me to take a selfie to verify its me and i have no makeup on and it doesnt recognise me ahahaha

[vagrant kraken]

Deep web has good articles I hear

[vagrant kraken]

Oh lord 🤣🤣🤣

I don't have issues with my make up 😔😔😔

New Kali doesn't have a dock panel down below, only small ones in the task bar thing up top where the clock is, can I install a proper dock for it?

[oak river]

Oh, I see

Have to level up a bit or in this case have to get my level updated

Thanks

[near hawk]

Yep have to get to 0XD or if you have OSCP/eCPPT you get it also

[steel aspen]

He's 0xm 😝

[sick lance]

Are you using Plasma?

[steel aspen]

Xfce

Kali default

Xfce did in the older versions but this 2024 one doesn't

[sick lance]

I haven't upgraded yet tbh.

[steel aspen]

And I really don't want to be pressing buttons that small up top lol

I didn't have much of a choice 🤣

Nah I just wanna find out how to add a dock panel like the old version, similar to Mac

[sick lance]

Settings > tweaks?

[steel aspen]

Yeah I'm in the process of reinstalling. I wanted to install a previous version but computer kept freezing. I know this one works so will wait and see and check out settings properly

Could add a 2nd panel but it was just as small

N I want the proper dock/dash thing

[worn thorn]

First successful time for grub not being a grub and doing the funny screen.

Veracrypt does work dualbooted on the same drive and even on different ones.

For once I tested it before committing to yet another reinstall of Windows.

Now to figure out If I want to use Garuda, Parrot or some other distro as my future main.

Hello Folks,

My friend's pc has got into a ransomware with .UAZQ file extension. However, all the file are encrypted.

Please tell me how to recover his pc?

[mossy river]

Unless you can decrypt the files, there's not much you can do.

https://www.crowdstrike.com/cybersecurity-101/ransomware/ransomware-recovery/
https://www.rubrik.com/insights/how-to-recover-from-ransomware
https://www.techtarget.com/searchsecurity/tip/How-to-recover-from-a-ransomware-attack

[near hawk]

You have this site that has decrypted tools for certain ransomware created by the crime unit in netherlands https://www.nomoreransom.org

[rapid merlin]

Alright. Thanks buddies for responding let me check out

[near hawk]

From the file extension it’s part of the djvu ransom family, they have a decryptor on it but carefully read through the guide before doing anything and make sure you understand everything

[sick lance]

As much as I enjoy other people learning new things, this is like malware, if you have no idea what you're doing, I'd leave it alone and get a professional.

[steel aspen]

How do I get the dash like in Kali 2023.2a? I'm stuck with a tiny panel and it sucks

[charred forum]

I have a silly question, but couldnt you make a simple password and hash it, and then use the hash as the password (or a certain length of it)
that way its easier to remember

or do dictionary attacks already take hashes into consideration

[mossy river]

You can, yes.

[mossy river]

What do you mean by that?

[charred forum]

like, the md5 hash of password123

[shut hawk]

Yeah but are you sure a hash is easier to remember?

[rapid merlin]

no, the protocol you hashed it in

[charred forum]

the source string is

you are the only one who knows the password is a hash of something

[shut hawk]

Wdym?

[mossy river]

I don't understand the comment about taking hashes into consideration.

[shut hawk]

40b4fcf08c5aa55de46384513b21f0888aafeefcd73eb7cba1bcc5a84e97117a this is a hash

Doesn't seem easy to remember to me

[charred forum]

yes

the thing you turned into a hash is easy to remember

[shut hawk]

yep

ah okay I get you now

[rapid merlin]

lepizloca means, like you have a simple password, like just password. Then you hash it with md5 and use the hash as a password.

Thats easier to remember

[shut hawk]

Yep, got you

[mossy river]

If you want a predictable, complex string, then yes doing that is fine.
But, you might as well just use a password manager with a password generation function

[charred forum]

i dont like the idea of my passwords being in one place like that

hmm

[shut hawk]

Password managers are recommended for a good reason

[rapid merlin]

Bitwarden, Keypass or One Pass.

use one of them imo.

Bitwarden is my fav

[sick lance]

keypass or Keepass?

[rapid merlin]

KeepassXC

my bad, english is not my first lang lol.

Nah its just the "brand" name

[cosmic pendant]

Are you self hosting?

[rapid merlin]

Nope

But i wanna do that

and maybe

port forward

[cosmic pendant]

I'm testing it right now, which works good,... unless you lose internet

[rapid merlin]

Noway

But maybe i wanna do that in future

For my family

mhh

[simple valve]

keepass sync with google drive

the poor man's password manager

[cosmic pendant]

keepass is nice

I'm testing XC because of the passkey support

But it isn't on mobile yet 😦

[rapid merlin]

wait i think my dad has a Bitwarden organization license

[simple valve]

i havent made the jump to bitwarden yet

i am stuck with lastpass

but i want to

[rapid merlin]

Yeah my main manager is lastpass too xd

But i should migrate

To Bitwarden

[cosmic pendant]

get out of there!

lol

[whole yew]

??? There's a keepassXC for android at least

[rapid merlin]

and self host it 😄 .

[cosmic pendant]

Yeah, but keepassDX doesn't support passkeys yet, they were just added in XC

[steel aspen]

Is it okay to have 2 ovpn files as long as only ones connected?

[rapid merlin]

Yup

I still somewhere have a Yubikey

But i lost it

ah found it

hehe

[whole yew]

Keepass2Android does have TOTP

[sick lance]

Yeah, you can have them all but you can only run one.

[whole yew]

Ah, I see. Passkey isn't what I thought it was, I don't think I will ever use that functionality. Browser extensions make me shudder.

[cosmic pendant]

no it doesn't. TOTP is an addon for Keepass

But Keepass Android doesn't support it

(That's why i'm looking at changing)

[whole yew]

Unless something is seriously broken in the implementation, I'm looking at it

[cosmic pendant]

on android?

[whole yew]

yeah

it claims RFC6238 is supported out of the box

[cosmic pendant]

Oh

They did add it

Yeah, it doesn't load the OTP values from The addon on WIndows though

[whole yew]

Interesting

[cosmic pendant]

so I wonder if it has it native now, but then I have to migrate everyhthing, and still don't have passkey (on windows)

https://keepass.info/plugins.html look at how many addons for just OTP

because it wasn't supported to begin with

It was added in 2.51 it seems, which is alittle back, but after I needed it

[shut hawk]

that's a lot of plugins

Does anyone vet them?

[cosmic pendant]

Another reason I want to move to XC 😄

[steel aspen]

Sweet as

"Will I see advertising if I don't stream?"

[tropic stratus]

If a newbie/learning the ropes hacker is a greenhat, does that mean new whitehats are LimeHats and new blackhats are AvacadoHats?

[celest onyx]

hello everyone hope you guys are doing great well yesterday i tried to download a game illegaly in "fit girl" using "utorrent" it was my first time and then immediately deleted evreything cuz i got scared , and today i opened my pc and got notification im not what it is but it has somthing saying about security and dark web thing idk didnt read it tbh i deleted it . so the question is im i getting hacked or its normal and how do i verfiy if i am getting hacked

[crude stump]

The “hats” are confusing

Don’t think anyone even uses hat terminology

[crude stump]

Scan with malwarebytes

[gritty fern]

Run a virus scan without internet

[tropic stratus]

Malwarebytes is the best.

[crude stump]

Best thing is don’t download cracked software

[celest onyx]

okay thank you

[tropic stratus]

I remember over on BleepingComputer (PC/Techie support forum) they always reccomended MBAM.

(Malwarebytes Anti Malware)

back when I first had to reach out to them in the early 2000's one of my PC's was infected with some sort of rootkit Mcafee couldn't remove, and they reccomended malwarebytes

[celest onyx]

whats windows powershell do tho

[gritty fern]

terminal

[celest onyx]

whats that

[gritty fern]

google

[tropic stratus]

command line you type things into.

[celest onyx]

okay

[tropic stratus]

Think like command prompt/cmd

I used to be overwhelmed and hate using command lines, now I've started to tolerate them but I still prefer a GUI. I grew up on windows.

[shut hawk]

Yeah I've been offered a quest to stream the finals

[near hawk]

Skill issue

[sick lance]

This will teach you for trying out piracy.

[shut hawk]

Yep, that can happen when you download pirated games

[celest onyx]

bad idea

[mossy river]

Discord Advertisements, imagine half way through writing a message you have to watch a 30 second advertisement

[tropic stratus]

I'd cry if they did it.

[mossy river]

I'd actually forget what I was writing

[tropic stratus]

I'm not opposed to some ads but some sites are so bad with it I use an adblocker

[crude stump]

The powershell is the terminal of your computer. Basically it’s where you can manage your computer

[celest onyx]

i see

[sick lance]

God damn ads.

They're everywhere.

Just wait, smart microwave, you can heat your food after this 45 second ad.

[mossy river]

I can't wait until my neck chip has ads xoxo

[tropic stratus]

and one thing that really grinds my gears is when a site has BOTH a paywall and an anti-adblocker, like a news site or something, "Please disable your adblocker" (I disable my adblocker and refresh the page) "You need to subscribe to read this article" like FFS, have either one or the other, not both.

[mossy river]

"Why were you late to work", "Had to stop mid walk to watch an advertisment"

[near hawk]

Would be as bad as prime

[mossy river]

ngl, I'm okay with prime ads

[lone thistle]

the worse offender is twitch

[mossy river]

I'm paying for the delivery service, music and the shows is free

[sick lance]

NowTV.

[mossy river]

girl math type beat

[lone thistle]

I pay for prime as it is. Why do I have to watch x3 3-4 minutes ads everytime I look to a new stream

[sick lance]

You need to buy a sub to watch, then a different sub for no ads.

[lone thistle]

I don't watch anything live on twitch. It's incredibly unbareable. It's all vods

[crude stump]

What ads are y’all talking about

[lone thistle]

like spending 6/7 mins watching ads to see if you like the streamer. Cause you can't see or hear the stream in the little preview they give

[tropic stratus]

Also, I find it odd that there's so many meh AV programs out there like McAfee and Norton

[mossy river]

I don't watch twitch because I can't touble tap on the right hand side to skip to the funny parts

[tropic stratus]

AVG, Avast, etc. why does Malwarebytes obliterate them in terms of detection and computer resource usage?

[mossy river]

Speculation but malware bytes probably has less active scanning

[gritty fern]

I fully despise AVG since it comes pre installed in windows now

[tropic stratus]

Like Mbam afaik is some small time project some people made, but Mcafee is like this giant corporation

[tawny widget]

That sounds like some Altered Carbon stuff haha

[lone thistle]

an AV is only as good as its signatures and detection engine bestie

if it doesn't know what a malware is, it won't detect

[tropic stratus]

yep

[lone thistle]

at least in most AVs

[tropic stratus]

but yee I used to have Mcafee

[sick lance]

Malware-Bytes hasn't let me down.

[tropic stratus]

Comcast gave it to you for free

or whatever

[lone thistle]

IIRC malwarebytes has a sandboxing engine which is pretty good, but I imagine they just have strong signatures

[sick lance]

I think they do.

[tropic stratus]

and I remember my PC getting fucked up by viruses from drive-by-downloads etc

and Mcafee was like "this is fine"

"your pc is clean"

that's when bleepingcomputer said to use malwarebytes

[rapid merlin]

If they do that, tryhackme Slack?

[gritty fern]

So many clown borders

[mossy river]

what's the discord alternative called

guilded

TryHackme Guilded

[lone thistle]

lore: before the Discord here, we had a Slack community

[rapid merlin]

oh lol

[mossy river]

True^^ I wasn't cool enough to be here back then

but @boreal gull was

[sick lance]

Bee is part of the woodwork

[lone thistle]

I just caught the tail end of being in the slack community lol

[mossy river]

I came with the John Hammond wave rofl

[tropic stratus]

https://www.cisa.gov/news-events/alerts/2010/04/21/mcafee-dat-5958-issues there was also this incident where Macafee would brick the pc

[crude stump]

Slack?

[rapid merlin]

Lol that looks exactly the same

[gritty fern]

Like discord, a messaging app

[crude stump]

Oh

[tropic stratus]

it would false positive and delete a critical system file

[mossy river]

Guilded has some better QoL features Discord doesn't

[crude stump]

Never heard of it

[rapid merlin]

Guilded even has a page "Why Guilded is just better"

[gritty fern]

Thats a bit silly

[tropic stratus]

Yep

it would delete svchost.exe or something and then reboot which would trap the computer in a reboot loop

Like, is there anything good to say about Mcafee antivirus?

[gritty fern]

Ngl even the name is kinda bad

[boreal gull]

yesbhahaha

[celest onyx]

they said in malware bytes that my pc is 90% clean

[boreal gull]

i was in slack for so long

i loved that thing

💀

[celest onyx]

im not cooked

[rapid merlin]

Lol, i just did an nmap scan on my own network. Now it seems like we shared our Wifi password to our neighbor when her modem broke. She is still on our wifi 😮

[boreal gull]

i was here before Dark was

[astral nova]

hi

[mossy river]

👵

[boreal gull]

back in my day u used to be able to chat with skidy in real time on discord while he procrastinated making the website

[crude stump]

What’s the 10 percent

Also try to scan with windows defender too

[celest onyx]

idk wait

[astral nova]

[celest onyx]

okay now its 100%

thank a lot guys

[gritty fern]

You shouldn’t really need a super cpu, most should be fine

[polar hedge]

Hi guys, does anyone know if there is a way to add myself to hyper-v group without admin rights

[gritty fern]

8130 sounds great

[crude stump]

That’s plenty

[astral nova]

thanks everyone can you give some advice or a road map or something because i really want to learn

Gave +1 Rep to @gritty fern (current: #1359 - 2)

[gritty fern]

#1359 with 2 rep is crazy

[crude stump]

On what

Tryhackme?

Cybersecurity?

[gritty fern]

TryHackMe has a introduction to cybersecurity room

[crude stump]

#start-here

[gritty fern]

I forgot about that channel

[astral nova]

is cyber security hard to start gaining some knoledge and experience and of course money

[gritty fern]

Currently learning cybersecurity is free with certain limitations that shouldnt hinder you too much, experience has been pretty easy for my with KoTH

[astral nova]

koTH what is it

[gritty fern]

King of the hill

its a competitive mode on try hack me

[crude stump]

It takes determination

[gritty fern]

Yeah

[astral nova]

on the website

[gritty fern]

yes

[astral nova]

i m signing up

[gritty fern]

great!

[astral nova]

a quick question if i ever need help can i ask you guys if it is possible

[gritty fern]

There is help channels but you should always learn it by yourself

[snow cove]

Hi everyone. In Upload Vulnerabilities is it possible to do it on attack box or only personal VM?

[astral nova]

yes thank you if found it have a good day

[gritty fern]

you too

[gritty fern]

Everything should be possible from attackbox im pretty sure

[bright tinsel]

HELLO !

I need a suggestion

[molten sky]

HELLO!

I need a question

[spark trellis]

hello

[gritty fern]

😂

[bright tinsel]

https://www.msi.com/Motherboard/PRO-B760M-P/Gallery will this motherboard is enough for this cpu

https://ark.intel.com/content/www/us/en/ark/products/134591/intel-core-i7-12700-processor-25m-cache-up-to-4-90-ghz.html

[gritty fern]

This is probably not the place for this

[molten sky]

As long as they are compatible, the motherboard normally isn't a bottleneck

(disclaimer: normally)

[gritty fern]

But yeah what productivity just said

[torpid perch]

ello

[molten sky]

'ello

[gritty fern]

Is chmod king.txt against the rules?

People keep doing it and it doesnt specifically say king.txt in the rules

[torpid perch]

how's it going?

hey one simple and straight question if somebody is doing business and he is cyber hacking thing enthusiast so he need another system to learn or try hacking or he just need a new system to learn

[molten sky]

think i just had a stroke

[gritty fern]

me too

[molten sky]

but a lot of people use virtual machines for security-related learning

[gritty fern]

“cyber hacking thing enthusiast” is crazy

[molten sky]

( there are special virtual machine images and such you can run that are specifically made to be vulnerable for learning, as well -- such as DVWA )

don't remember if dvwa runs in a vm or not so i added the "and such" lol

[gritty fern]

And theres obviously the THM machines

[molten sky]

> Scrubz is typing

we see you

come back to us

[torpid perch]

ohh if i do virtual machines so my pc is completely safe from other hackers

[torpid perch]

what do you mean by that?

[gritty fern]

Not how that works in this situation
edit: nvm i read that wrong

[gritty fern]

I dunno it just sounds silly

[molten sky]

assuming you get the vm from a legitimate source, you're normally fine (and don't expose it/port forward your router to it)

emphasis on not exposing it --- the thing is designed to be vulnerable, so you don't want other people to access it over the interwebs

[torpid perch]

okk so basically these are demo or non usable machines where you can practise hacking

[torpid perch]

i just mean enthusiant by that i wrote the 'thing' for i dont know why 😄

[molten sky]

pretty much. DVWA is a big one, although you don't necessary need a vm for that one since it's just a web app
https://github.com/digininja/DVWA
https://www.kali.org/tools/dvwa/

ofc with the focus of that one being web app stuff

[gritty fern]

Ok how do i get the 0x* roles?

[gritty fern]

thx

[torpid perch]

okk one more thing

macbook or window

[torpid perch]

?

[gritty fern]

Linux will be the best for hacking usually

[torpid perch]

yeah but like performance or reliability

[gritty fern]

For what

[torpid perch]

hacking and stuff

[gritty fern]

Linux

Mac is okay

Dont use windows

[torpid perch]

are there linux machines avalaible in the market

[gritty fern]

In most situations

[torpid perch]

?

[gritty fern]

Yeah

Kali Linux

is what id use

[torpid perch]

any recommendation

[gritty fern]

Kali Linux

[molten sky]

for this sorta thing kali will have the most tutorials and stuff available

[rapid merlin]

😄

[molten sky]

there are others but that's the more ubiquitous

[torpid perch]

no imean laptops of kali linux as default

[molten sky]

not really

[gritty fern]

Just boot it from bios

[molten sky]

not kali at least

[torpid perch]

how ??

[gritty fern]

Google how to make a bootable usb

[molten sky]

kali isn't meant to be installed onto your system, it's meant to be a vm that you can refresh after an engagement

[torpid perch]

okk

[gritty fern]

But yeah use a vm if possible

[torpid perch]

ahh okk

[gritty fern]

Though it’s definitely possible to dual boot if you like, thats what i do

[torpid perch]

okk so if i boot kali linux in my system the data on my window will be safe or will vanish compeletely

[chilly veldt]

Depends

[gritty fern]

vanish unless dual boot

[chilly veldt]

If you fuck it up it vanishes

[torpid perch]

okk so i have not to be foolish while doing this work

[chilly veldt]

VM is much easier

You don't want to remake your whole computer every time your Kali breaks due to an unstable update

[torpid perch]

okk
