[plucky folio]

How's it

[gray sonnet]

pretty damn good ngl

[molten sky]

not sure if there's one for malware dev specifically but the #advanced channel is 0xD

[gray sonnet]

alright, I'm gonna go do other stuff on here, I'll hop on later, have fun ya'll

[molten sky]

think it's only #advanced

[plucky folio]

Yes i'm not sure the name but it opened up at certain level

So it's 0xD

[molten sky]

would be 0xD yeah, the top lvl on site

or if you have a cert like oscp or gpen

[plucky folio]

Got cha then i need like 2 more level ? Hmm

[plucky folio]

I'm going free route soooo thm it's :>

[molten sky]

looks like you're 0x8 now unless outdated, so you'd need 9 a b c d

[plucky folio]

Wait there's abcd? Hmm i've been a way for quit some time

[cold jungle]

Hey, can anybody help me with "Which button would we choose to send an intercepted request to the target in Burp Proxy?"

I really can't find any button or shortcut to do this

[shadow loom]

Here's an interception of me clicking "Nitro" on discord.gg

It's one of those 5 buttons I bet (although the question is phrased a little strange without context)

[cold jungle]

I tried everyone of them

Why am not being able to send image?

[shadow loom]

huh?

oh, on discord

[cold jungle]

Yeah

[shadow loom]

probably because you're new and not verified

[cold jungle]

How to do that?

Anyways

Am new to thm and there in burpsuite: the basics

Proxy Introduction to the Burp Proxy

There is this question

[shadow loom]

"Forward" is the only button that makes sense

if that answer doesn't work (check capitalization)... no clue

[cold jungle]

Damn yeah... It worked

Thanks mann

But can you explain

How does you came to know its forward button...

Because the forward button simply let the request and response pass through the proxy right?

How does it sends the request/response to target?

[shadow loom]

that's exactly how

[proper cipher]

i think intercept catching every packet (ckeck websocket history you have "to client" "to server")

[shadow loom]

you intercept the request, then you can modify it and then when you're happy, you forward it to the target

[cold jungle]

Yeah make sense now

I just noticed that each request forwarded are stored in target

I didn't saw that earlier my bad...

[shadow loom]

normally it'll go like browser --> web server... but here we do browser --> burp ......... --> server

[cold jungle]

yes, make sense now

[proper cipher]

you can play around with etc foxyproxy without intercept on and after check http history

[cold jungle]

Thats the module am starting with

Connecting through the Proxy (FoxyProxy)

[proper cipher]

on tryhackme platform ?

[cold jungle]

One more thing I actually need help with

[cold jungle]

Yeah

[shadow loom]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

unfortunately you don't get money from forwarding requests 😦

[cold jungle]

Such an amazin explanation without any word

[shadow loom]

[cold jungle]

Wish thm had used this in their courses

[cold jungle]

Lol, I am not even being able to react

[proper cipher]

they dont want to give you money thats biggest problem with picture

only you can get is creds csrf tokens cookies etc huh

[mossy river]

Worth more than money 😋

[proper cipher]

exactly juicy creds like admin:admin xd

[cold jungle]

Well guys, Since am new to THM can you guys guide me with which path to enroll in first and which latter... Currently I have some basic knowledge of Network Hacking

[fallen folio]

Hey did anyone solved mkingdom?

[mossy river]

Check pins

[peak whale]

Does the streak reset on 00:00 or 24 hours from the time when I last completed a question? So If I completed a question at 13:00 - will the streak reset at 13:00 the next day or do I have until 00:00 the next day before it resets? I almost lost my streak today.

[mossy river]

#1251235113803714590 We do not allow hints within the first 72 hours of a challenge release in the Discord server :)

[peak whale]

Ok so if its 2024-06-16 12:00 here now and I just completed a question, it will reset tomorrow at 2024-06-17 23:59 ?

[mossy river]

It’s your learning journey, follow whatever order you want 😄

Personally I think it’s better to start at the very start, regardless of your skill level, so that you can understand how the service works

[mossy river]

Correct

[peak whale]

Awesome thank you.

[twin ridge]

Gave +1 Rep to @mossy river (current: #6 - 1252)

[cold jungle]

Make sense, Thank you very much

[twin ridge]

Gave +1 Rep to @mossy river (current: #6 - 1253)

[proper cipher]

@cold jungle you can do whatever you want you will need everything from every source tryhackme is not that hard plarform (my opinion)

[fallen folio]

But thm is good for beginners

[cold jungle]

Yeah, I realised it... Its not really hard... Tough probably the best way to strat in security testing

[proper cipher]

it will be more easier if you understand network 1st (it can be boring but that was funny for me) and its also depends what you want

[shadow loom]

i don't think there is a "the best way"

and if there was, I don't think it would be THM

[uneven oasis]

Has any1 here had issues with different functions in Burpsuite not existing? I don't seem to have the intruder tab

[shadow loom]

Intruder is in the default installation - did you accidentally disable the visibility of the tab?

[uneven oasis]

How would one do that? And since I'm on the free version that seems to reset on each restart, wouldn't it appear again once I restart it?

[shadow loom]

try to "View Intruder"

(in the middle)

You might have right-clicked and hidden it by accident

[uneven oasis]

Well it was that easy, thanks

[twin ridge]

Gave +1 Rep to @shadow loom (current: #575 - 7)

[shadow loom]

[uneven oasis]

Im just surprised it didnt reappear when I tried resetting to default settings

[shadow loom]

one step closer to being as cool as Jabba

[shadow loom]

me too lol

I guess if you were to right click an intercepted request in the proxy and "send it to intruder" it would appear too

[proper cipher]

@shadow loom have u htb subscription ?

[prisma void]

Hi guys, I have a jekyll blog page, and want to know how I can secure it more properly. I hardened the linux server that it's hosted on but i'm not the best at web hacking, more of an OS type guy.

It's mostly a static site, so not sure what more can be done.

[shut hawk]

Jekyll is static right?

Yeah, in terms of the web service, it's static so you'll be fine. For the actual server itself, do you have any other services running on it?

[prisma void]

all the usual services, was thinking maybe of rather hosting it on github pages, closed off ssh, setup fail2ban and rainbow tables, the usual stuff.

server uses proxmox

[shadow loom]

not active

why

[shadow loom]

if you just need to serve static content just use github pages tbh..

if you need it self-hosted you could consider Cloudflare in the mix

[prisma void]

Cloudflare is such a shitty company I try and avoid them like the plague

Thanks for the advice tho!

[shadow loom]

what's wrong with cloudflare?

[prisma void]

They're paywalling everyone these days, which I get, their a corporation that needs to make money but yeh....

Plus all the drama i've heard going on with them, I just ignore them for personal projects, still use them daily with enterprise.

[shadow loom]

I'm using their free options, they work pretty great

proxied DNS, trusted SSL certs, custom block rules...

[prisma void]

I like akamai more for personal projects, for enterprise I would stick with Cloudflare

You cannot really compete with them

However, that said with all the drama, I've actually never personally had an issue with their support etc.

[shut hawk]

I use a lot of Cloudflare features, never had a problem or something that was paywalled that I had to have (just my personal experience)

[gritty zephyr]

holla, i want to stop the auto renewal of my subscription, yet i dont wanna cancel the subscription i have running atm, how would i do that, i only see a full cancel thing

or doesnt that take the running subscription away?

i cant read

anyway hello frens

[uncut cove]

Heyy

An idea just came to me, but maybe it's already available on thm

Is it possible to save the rooms for later? Like maybe tag them, and then access from the dashboard or profile?

[past sparrow]

Not to my knowledge, however you can always use the browser bookmarking

[uncut cove]

No, it doesn't cancel your active subscription, it just won't renew when the date comes

[uncut cove]

Yeah, I do something similar, but with a list of "to-do" rooms.

Don't want Kali tho which is what I've been using for THM

[tepid furnace]

Little bit of hardening, bur base, I like it

[cosmic pendant]

is AppArmor more usable than SELinux?

[gray sonnet]

exactly

[boreal scarab]

Is simpler than SELinux

[cosmic pendant]

Not a surprsie, everything is 😄 😄

[boreal scarab]

[cosmic pendant]

Ubunutu has AppArmor eh?

[boreal scarab]

Don't think OOTB, could be wrong though

what drink is today on the menu ?

[wild rose]

Stayed up to watch Le Man.

[whole yew]

define "usable." IMO apparmor is more difficult to actually secure a system with. And, there have been some recent privesc and root mounting vulns in apparmor.

[cosmic pendant]

I think it's best said like this

Just about anything is more useable than SELinux

[chilly veldt]

We've had all from beers to champagne and then we have a party in 2 hours

[loud marlin]

fair fair...

[uneven oasis]

When I run a gobuster dir with the -x switch, do I need to type out the extensions I'd like to search for such as
gobuster dir -u URL -w Wordlist.txt -x .http,.js,.php
or can I feed the -x switch a .txt file such as
gobuster dir -u URL -w Wordlist.txt -x common_extensions.txt

From my googling I feel like -x should take a .txt file but I'm not getting any results when trying it.
Please let me know if this is the wrong channel

[tepid furnace]

#room-help

[sick lance]

This is just a general tool question...

[tepid furnace]

ahhh

I thought it was in relation to a room

guess I was kinda biased since I just did a htb room on gobuster lol

[wide marten]

From the docs
-x, --extensions string

that would indicate it doesn't/isn't supposed to work with files.

[uneven oasis]

but -w switch in man shows:
-w, --wordlist string
and that switch takes a .txt file

[sick lance]

Yeah, it's different though.

However.

you can set a list to variable and then passing that through.

[uneven oasis]

It wasn't a bad guess, I already solved the room by adding the extensions manually though. Now I'm just wondering about the tool 🙂

[tepid furnace]

ahh

[uneven oasis]

I don't think I really understand how it's different tbh

[lavish star]

where can I apply for the student discount

[lavish star]

just email?

[wide marten]

Different switch, Different functionality. It says wordlist, the other one doesn't.

[sick lance]

Yeah.

-x is expected to have a comma in the command.

-w doesn't.

[uneven oasis]

Okay fair enough, thanks for the answers!

[wide marten]

Wait my last message didn't make sense since wordlist is just long form of w and doesn't describe the parameter. But if you tried and it doesn't work...

[wide marten]

So the docs aren't clear about that, you're right. Both take a string according to docs.

[uneven oasis]

That's what I thought haha

And I didn't get it to work but I've been known to be guilty of user error

[wide marten]

Yeah I was reading too fast sorry

[crude stump]

Is signing into tryhackme on my Kali vm safe. I’m trying to get the configuration file for ovpn and I think that’s the only way if I’m not mistaken

[sick lance]

Yeah.

But you can also drag and drop?

Or if you're using Vmware Pro, you can set up shared folders.

That's what I do.

[crude stump]

Shoot

Thank you

Never thought about dragging and dropping

[sick lance]

If you're using VB you might need to install guest tools.

[shut hawk]

Same with VMware)

[crude stump]

Why don’t the guest additions already come installed

[sick lance]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[shut hawk]

If you have downloaded the vbox image from kali, they should be pre-installed I think

[sick lance]

I don't think it does.

As you need to install it on Virtualbox.

So it's not OS specific.

[shut hawk]

If it is, then automatically install any additional tools (in VirtualBox’s case, virtualbox-guest-x11). The Guest Addition is also pre-installed in the Live image since Kali Linux 2021.3.

[chilly veldt]

Like rooftop with 100 CTF players party

With company sponsors etc

[loud marlin]

oh... that is nice yea

[stray wing]

Connection to the VMs has been really slow lately for me. Is it a ME problem or a Tryhackme problem?

[loud marlin]

web based thm or local ?

[stray wing]

huge latency

web-based

[loud marlin]

it is possible. due to ppm use it. web based is not so much in area of great. might cosinder make local VM kali ?

[stray wing]

has been considering it. But some task require specific materials, and I haven't figured out how to access them yet

they dont teach how to access tryhackme material here

[loud marlin]

can you link like what materials. some rooms do need web based kali. but most of materials can be dowbnloaded to local

[stray wing]

Could u show me?

Room: threat intelligence tools; Task: 5, PhishTool

[loud marlin]

not sure of what room you do. but when starting doing room, if material is needed it have downlaod task files

can you link that room pls

[stray wing]

https://tryhackme.com/r/room/threatinteltools

[loud marlin]

gib sec to read

[stray wing]

In the "Scenario" just above the question section

[loud marlin]

as i read, in this case, you need to use web based kali. but if there is files to use for some task, you can get them to local pc and use own kali/VM

[stray wing]

ok, so not all rooms have downloadable mats

got it

[loud marlin]

most of it. only if the specific tool is used that might not be in default local kali vm. then web based is needed

ill say 90% of things can be done locally

[stray wing]

thanks

Hello guys... I trust that your Sunday is coming along well.

I'd like to request your help with my Kali machine. I just tried to start it on this week, and it was showing a black screen and a cursor. Among the solutions I have tried are:

1. Updated the Virtual box.
2. Checked the virtualization settings.
3. Attempted restarting more than 20 times.

I fear that if I install another Kali VM, I will lose a lot of my saved work. Do you have any thoughts on how to go about this?

[naive violet]

That was a while ago

[sick lance]

I have it pre-ordered 😄

[sick lance]

Yeah, it was such a good game mode.

[lean basalt]

Any Indian is here

[mossy river]

How much? 🤣

You can recover the files quite easily

There should be a intermediate and advanced

[proven quartz]

I would argue against going for the advanced certs without OSCP. I've seen clients who won't accept someone on their team who doesn't have OSCP but has OSEP or OSCE3. 🤷‍♂️

[mossy river]

#general message

[crude stump]

Oh

[sharp zealot]

That's what I meant these are the certs to go for after oscp and ceh

[proven quartz]

I wouldn't waste time on CEH unless it's specifically requested. Usually it's respected in India, maybe Brazil and is still viable for US gov jobs but there's no real value in it. Unless a role requests it, I wouldn't go for it

[crude stump]

Wait so how do certs prove your worth. Aren’t they like a one time exam?

[sharp zealot]

But again certs will only contribute on the first look and profile std it's the knowledge that gets you the job and reputation

[sharp zealot]

I agree CEH practical can be interesting but the theoretical is just a waste of time

[proven quartz]

Some certs can show that you've completed a certain course or gained knowledge to a certain level and then actually been tested in a live environment and/or produced sufficient reports

[mossy river]

It certifies that you have specfic knowledge hence "certification"

[proven quartz]

The CEH practical isn't really a good judge of ability, I'm not aware of any group who rates it as viable. It's typically OSCP as a minimum for junior pentester

[mossy river]

Although I prefer physical proof over certifications but that's why I'm not a hiring manager 😛

[proven quartz]

Proof like previous job experience, CTFs, blogs, etc?

[mossy river]

Here is a task, do it in front of me

[crude stump]

So you want 5 hour interviews

[sharp zealot]

Yes there are many fellas with reputable certs but when asked on interview they aren't even clear with the basics so it's important to have a good mixture of both the knowledge and the certs only acquiring one of then isn't enough after all certificates are valuable because of the knowledge they represent

[proven quartz]

That works too. Depends what you're hiring for I guess. I'd expect a junior pt to at least know how to hack/pivot and produce a report

[sharp zealot]

Yes I agree with that i haven't looked up ceh practical but i know for a fact that ceh is very overrated while underated certs like ecppt, cpts, cnpt and others have tons of more knowledge

[proven quartz]

Yeah you really do need to have a technical understanding of the methodology and the tech you're working on. It requires a lot of study

[mossy river]

Not really, it doesn't have to be anything incredibly complex.
If I'm hiring someone who says they can do a job, I want to know that they can actually do it.

Certifications are meant to solve this problem but I've met people with certain certs and been shocked at their level of understanding.

[mossy river]

I'd say that a Junior position could be let off but I'd want to see a good effort in their probation period. They don't necessarily need to be great at their job, effort and proactivity goes such a long way.

I've heard of some people needing to do tasks like CTFs for their interview, including a report. @devout palm did you have to? I think it was you that I vaguely remember mentioning something?

[sharp zealot]

Absolutely, if you want to be considered a good penetration tester so dont just rush for certs first get a basic understanding then create your own methodology try to write scripts for that participate in ctf's then go for certs

[proven quartz]

Yeah I guess that's fair enough. It's important to show your value. In my last post I had a c-suite commendation and was on first name basis with the CISO and CFO of a pretty large org within my probation

[wooden totem]

I have such a weird problem lol, my pc can't connect to internet after a sleep mode session. Tried everything its still consistently loading forever when I try to connect when I turn it back on after hibernation or sleeping

[mossy river]

I think I had the same issue a while back

Heya @graceful thistle sad to see ya go.

Oh PHP, you buggy beast,
Your code was like a hacker's feast,
SQL injection with such ease,
And XSS, a pentester's breeze.

Now Go and Node and Rust abound,
But none with flaws so easily found,
I miss your quirks, your messy state,
Insecure by default, oh, you were great!

Yep

[rare panther]

Love the devotion

[buoyant tree]

How common are those

[rapid merlin]

(hes talking out his ass)

[crude stump]

?

[rapid merlin]

5 hour interviews lol

[crude stump]

Do you have something to back that up

Oh

[rapid merlin]

No he's not lol

[buoyant tree]

He's a pentester in the field

Or something along those lines

[shut hawk]

(And I'm speaking from experience too)

[rapid merlin]

its ok i get it

you have to agree with the mods deluded takes to not get banned

i get the jist of this server

[shut hawk]

I've literally worked at a pentesting firm, and experienced a CTF interview like that

[mossy river]

Wut? Lol

[loud marlin]

for my interview i had to sign NDA =/ lucky was not 5hrs but it can be

[rapid merlin]

you cant read now?

post address ill come to your house and explain it to you

[mossy river]

What’s with the attitude? Lol

[rapid merlin]

schizophrenia

[pallid lotus]

Nah, we do it too. Practical assessment with a 5 hour time limit.

[loud marlin]

oh boy

[pallid lotus]

No active proctoring though. Just record the sessions etc

[mossy river]

Respect is a two way street, we don’t tolerate any form of abuse to community members here. I’m not going to warn you more than once.

Be nice 🙂

[shell nova]

Yeah, mine was about 4

[buoyant tree]

How many NDA's have you signed even (Or is that confidential)

[loud marlin]

i have 4. but there is lot's of that is on company lvl that falls under as i did it.

[naive violet]

rip

[sharp zealot]

That's like the coolest job interview ever

[naive violet]

Most pentesters I know have done a CTF ass part of their interview process.

[buoyant tree]

what difficulty would you rate those CTF's in general.

[naive violet]

That user was ban evading and was just salty about that...

[crude stump]

Seems a little scary. If you don’t pass the ctf you’re done.

[naive violet]

Depends on the job

[buoyant tree]

high stakes CTF, not like normal CTF's where only your pride is on stake

[wild rose]

Much like a driver's test, either you get it or you don't.

[naive violet]

Nah our process is about how you approach it more than how well you do

[crude stump]

I never done a ctf but like how do you know what tools are fit for the ctf?

[buoyant tree]

Oh so like how a few recruiter's say that they give you those leetcode problems to see how you approach it

[crude stump]

Or do you take a investigating approach and try the tools you think

Ah I see

[shut hawk]

What's fake nitro?

[crude stump]

I signed up with google but I have my active .edu account as well. I'm not sure what to do exactly

How can I change/link my .edu email to my account?

[mossy river]

You can't. You will need to contact support and they will be able to provide you with further advice

[terse edge]

So I signed up for premium, then opened a ticket for student discount, and uploaded my official college enrollment document. I don't know how to change the email to .edu. What else should I do?

[mossy river]

If you signed in with Google, you can't. But, they can apply it to your account if they can validate that you are a student

[terse edge]

I signed in with google. I uploaded my official enrollment document from the university from studentclearninghouse. Let's see what happens.

[arctic cradle]

I try to study every day but went on a two day trip and messed up my studying streak, I feel bad about it

[crude stump]

I feel you I completely stopped caring about the streaks. You can still contact support and mabye get it back

[arctic cradle]

naah, I wouldn't waste their time with this kind of thing, I don't care about it but usually I am very strictive person when it comes to studying, I always do it daily even if it's small bits and losing the streak because of small vacation saddens me

[crude stump]

I mean it is there job

As long as you aren’t spamming them

They should answer

[sick lance]

IIRC, streak resets isn't part of their job, they don't have to do it.

[crude stump]

But they still get paid for it right

[sick lance]

They get paid for support.

Streak reset is an optional extra.

Awk, I missed the CTF interview conversation.

[pallid lotus]

Also, kinda defeats the purpose of streaks lmao

[arctic cradle]

wouldn't bother still contacting support for such thing unless my streak was 300 days and then I missed a day 😄

[pallid lotus]

Not, admittedly, that I can talk

[sick lance]

Yeah, I'm aware it says that there, but I remember Jabba saying he doesn't have to do it, when he worked as support.

[shut hawk]

I can understand for cases where it was unavoidable - like having xyz emergency

[terse edge]

Well I signed up for premium. Now what should I do?

[blazing granite]

better than I expected. My father was diagnosed with neurological problems, that's one of the reasons I'm in Argentina right now. Last week he fell on the street and ended up in CCU overnight to check on his pacemaker

[brisk tree]

Oh no I'm so sorry to hear that. Is he ok now

[blazing granite]

He's OK, but we're debating with my sister until when he will be able to live alone

He started to be a bit forgettable and mixing the days, don't recall conversations, etc

[brisk tree]

That's not good. Same happened to my grandad it's heartbreaking to see

[blazing granite]

I convinced him to stop driving and I put the car for sale

[glossy zephyr]

no one is active wtf

[brisk tree]

Good

[blazing granite]

It's a walking danger to drive like that, for him and others

[brisk tree]

Yeah I get that. Took my grandad having a crash to realise he shouldn't be driving so good your dad has agreed

[blazing granite]

it's was the road to hell to convince him to give up the car

[brisk tree]

Yeah alot of people are like that don't want to give up their freedom

[glossy zephyr]

im just being ignored damn....

[blazing granite]

he has 4 minor accidents in a week, luckily neither him or anybody else got hurt. That was enough

[glossy zephyr]

surprised he didnt die of panic

[brisk tree]

Good thing he's stopped before it gets worse

[blazing granite]

hence minor accidents, didn't you read?

[glossy zephyr]

thats why i edited it

[blazing granite]

yes the whole region, Egypt is well know for his bad driving and I can give tell you about my taxi trips in Cairo and Alexandria, I didn't know if I would survive 😂

Israel is not much better 😛

[brisk tree]

Yeah my bf said he was terrified in the taxis in Egypt saying people crossing the roads as the cars were doing 70

People on motorbikes without helmets too apparently 🙈

[glossy zephyr]

no one wants to talk coding their either

[blazing granite]

is this not an actual coding server

[mossy river]

That word isn't tolerated here 🙂

[brisk tree]

Yeah I'd be terrified. Although one place I would never want to drive is in India

[crude stump]

No it’s not

[glossy zephyr]

wait is it in my server profile

[crude stump]

This is a ethical hacking

Server

For the website tryhackme

[glossy zephyr]

ethical hacking involves coding

[blazing granite]

I've never been there but I've heard that is pretty bad, Also AIO told me that Pakistan is awful too

[crude stump]

Depends

Not as much as you want to talk tho

[brisk tree]

One of my bf students said Mumbai is worse than Egypt when it comes to driving

[glossy zephyr]

are you down to discuss anything that involves coding

[brisk tree]

Tbh all I want to drive on is the Autoban

[blazing granite]

WOW!!! Worse than Egypt that's something 😂

[crude stump]

I only know the bare basics of python

So I wouldn’t be much help

[glossy zephyr]

ill explain some commands

[crude stump]

Im alright

[brisk tree]

If you've ever watched top gear didn't they do an episode in India. When I saw that I was like nope

[glossy zephyr]

and you can teach me stuff i dont know aswell

[glossy zephyr]

not malicious things ofc.

[crude stump]

Coding isn’t really my thing

Sorry

[glossy zephyr]

so why are you involved in ethical hacking then.

[crude stump]

Because I like it

[glossy zephyr]

it involves coding tho.

[blazing granite]

Actually I never got my driving license, I like drinking much more than driving 😉 😛

[glossy zephyr]

if coding is not your thing then why are you invovled in ethical hacking

[crude stump]

Do you know what’s ethical hacking?

[glossy zephyr]

pretty sure considering ive already learned it

[brisk tree]

I have a licence just no car ahaha and yeah I get you on the drinking ahaha just game and drink wine on the weekends

[crude stump]

You must be thinking about reverse engineering and creating the software

[loud marlin]

i just wait that thoes electric things get some kind of wifi... the CVS will just fly liek hell =/

[glossy zephyr]

no actually

[brisk tree]

There is a bit of coding in ethical hacking but it's not alit like programming. If you want to code then do computer programming

[crude stump]

They don’t understand that

[blazing granite]

when I was younger my father offered me to buy me a car but I just don't want to drive

[crude stump]

I think it’s cus of movies where they show the hacker always coding stuff

[brisk tree]

I want to work my way up in cyber and work towards a lambo

[glossy zephyr]

Ethical hacking involves code like you said.It allows you to gain unauthorized acess legally with an owners permission or consent

[dire harbor]

Hello everyone! I have a question: the company I am working at has a tryhackme business plan and offered to pay for my subscription as well. Thing is, I have my personal tryhackme account (on my personal email address) and I already have around 150 rooms completed so I don't want to start with a fresh account. My question is, can I change the email address of my personal account with the business one, and most importantly, if I were to ever leave the company can I change it back?

[glossy zephyr]

in this case i want to talk code and learn things i have not

[blazing granite]

not bitcoins? 😂

[brisk tree]

Probably ahahaha. Tbh if hacking was all coding think I'd smash my head against a wall alot 🤣

[high mulch]

You may go to the programming channel of this server. You don't have to do much coding to be an ethical hacker, only scripting is enough to survive. Although, once again, you may go to #programming

If not, I can also suggest the freecodecamp forums and discord channel which they discuss a lot about programming languages, devop stuff and all that
x = 1 else elif stuff 😛

[brisk tree]

No ahahahaha

[high mulch]

Also, scripting != coding

[crude stump]

If you are creating your own exploits of course you are gonna need some coding knowledge

But that’s different

[glossy zephyr]

fortunately i dont intend to do malicious things with coding

[crude stump]

That’s like advanced level

[glossy zephyr]

its easy..

[glossy zephyr]

yea

run the system*

[crude stump]

🧍‍♂️

Run the system?

I mean turning on a power button does the same too

[ashen blade]

what kind of things do you code?

[glossy zephyr]

i mean the system for exploits

all types of things with

-Java
-Lua
-Python

We're having burgers, dunno what kind, but I believe wine is involved

[crude stump]

There’s servers specifically for that

[glossy zephyr]

as ive said,i want to learn more than just those 3 coding languages that ive already mastered

[crude stump]

What do you want to learn then

[glossy zephyr]

what do you know?

if its something i do not know then i want to learn

[crude stump]

Well google knows alot

It knows C C++ etc

[brisk tree]

Look at YouTube videos even chatgpt to teach you

[glossy zephyr]

id rather not use google

[brisk tree]

It's what 99% of people use to learn

[mossy river]

How did you master 3 coding languages? 🤔

[high mulch]

I mean, you never master a language. You would still be quite effience on it, but master.. would be a stretch.

[glossy zephyr]

By learning them to the fullest?

[mossy river]

How though?

[crude stump]

Programming languages aren't exactly intuitive self explanatory. And I'd argue that if you can't understand documentaiton, you aren't a master

[glossy zephyr]

documentation* and i do understand documentation

[crude stump]

And even then a master is pretty far stretched

[feral ledge]

I got rid of arch and I’m back on windows praise Jesus

[mossy river]

But you refuse to Google?

[brisk tree]

I don't even think programmers with users experience will know everything about coding they'll have to do research too on Google

[glossy zephyr]

not mastered like i know it like the back of my hand

[crude stump]

So mastered lmao

[brisk tree]

What every price of code?

[mossy river]

Do you have a GitHub or public projects?

[glossy zephyr]

mastered to where i know all the core functions

[glossy zephyr]

GitHub ig

[glossy zephyr]

why?

[mossy river]

I wouldn't say that's mastered tbf, you need to understand the paradigms too.

[mossy river]

So I can check out your journey

[high mulch]

I know of somebody, he works at google after 5 times being denied by their recruiter. He didn't give up. He got the job. He still says he finds some new stuff or undust pretty much "new things" on the way. He's being coding/programming for +15 years, I believe.

You can pick up things easier, the mode you code/program, but you'll never master a language. Besides, languages have their flaw. So you'll still have to learn new stuff after those flaws are found and fixed by a framework or a new version of the language.

[glossy zephyr]

paradigms are relatively simple

[glossy zephyr]

also how do you track progress like that

i use coding apps to learn

[mossy river]

But their implementations are different across programming languages

[hazy sundial]

yo @mossy river can you change my location on tryhackme?

[feral ledge]

May 2024 discord cap

[glossy zephyr]

or i would try to develop new commands and even as far as to create my own language in coding

[brisk tree]

The more you repeat something it sticks and if you don't use it you lose it

[mossy river]

I can only set your location to where you are 🙂

[glossy zephyr]

use a vpn

vpns allow you to change your location depending on what app you use

[mossy river]

This will make the site function as unintended.

[brisk tree]

Creating your own language would be alot of work

[glossy zephyr]

yea but he never said he didnt know the side effects for using a vpn

[hazy sundial]

im from romania and i live in germany

[glossy zephyr]

ofc it would,it took newton years to create calculus alone

[mossy river]

That's why you should spread knowledge 😉

[mossy river]

Mhm, your 'country' is your current location 🙂

[hazy sundial]

cant you make an exception

[glossy zephyr]

and java was started on a project 1991 and was released in 1995 with still some issues

[hazy sundial]

i wanna represent my country not germany 💀

[crude stump]

How many people do you think worked on Java

[high mulch]

I guess also how you set up your browser. Mine recognised my location as UK, therefore I got the UK flag I believe. But i'm not in the UK. Not that I want to change it nor I care.

[glossy zephyr]

that alone shows the difficulty to make a coding language but it is possible if you already have exponential experience

[mossy river]

No because

A) it will automatically update anyway
B) the website uses your location to manage certain functions like your streak timer

[glossy zephyr]

2 people created it and 17.1 million people worked with the language

[hazy sundial]

ngl i think its stupid we cant change the flag on our own

[mossy river]

#feedback-and-ideas

[glossy zephyr]

James Gosling and Patrick Naughten

[glossy zephyr]

i dont use the app

i just came to discuss ethical hacking and ethical things

[hazy sundial]

btw why did my level not change my discord?

[crude stump]

Aye but we aren’t discouraging you. If you want to create a new programming language go for it. We are just saying it’s pretty hard to call your self a master.

And even then “masters” make mistakes

[brisk tree]

Everyone makes mistakes it's all part of being human

[glossy zephyr]

i am not perfect,i do make mistakes with the coding language

Make a Poll what should the name of the coding language be

[hazy sundial]

i dont think these people care enough how your programing language name should be

[crude stump]

Oh

That’s nice

[high mulch]

Man.. not wanting to just make a report to further investigate this matter, is just how companies get hacked or f--ked really hard, then proceed to cry they didn't know how, why or what.

[glossy zephyr]

it doesnt matter to me if they dont care,they can simply ignore the message if they dont want to acknowledge it.

[glossy zephyr]

if people support the idea they can create names for it

[glossy zephyr]

either way i have something in mind anyway.

[crude stump]

How are you gonna go about making it

[hazy sundial]

ngl i think my man just wants to create a programming language i dont think he knows how to make one

@mossy river change my level on discord pleaseee

[ocean rock]

HELLO

[mossy river]

It updates once every 24 hours

[grand canopy]

HELLO

[hazy sundial]

yoooo

[glossy zephyr]

well im not sure yet

[glossy zephyr]

youll see when its fully developed

[crude stump]

Sounds like a plan

[hazy sundial]

wha

[mossy river]

@ocean rock Keep it English and appropriate please

[hazy sundial]

@mossy river i have a question

how many rooms did you made?

[glossy zephyr]

any ideas?

[glossy zephyr]

you sound like a smart individual so i would like to work on it with you

[crude stump]

O

[boreal scarab]

Did you make*

Friendly English fix

[glossy zephyr]

its going to be hard doing it solo

[crude stump]

Why thank you but I’m alright

[hazy sundial]

my bad

[mossy river]

Just one https://tryhackme.com/room/historyofmalware

[glossy zephyr]

no worries

im going offline for now,toodles.

[crude stump]

Cya

[hazy sundial]

Did you complete only 98 rooms?

how are you level 997?

[raw dust]

Hi everyone. I got a question, i will get an practice test interview for a Soc role soon. Some of you have some advice to give to prepare to this one?

[mossy river]

That is the Staff level

[mossy river]

I completed most of my rooms back in 2020/2021

[sick lance]

Staff, contributor and bug hunter have separate levels (as does event roles)

[boreal scarab]

All good, just was being nice and helping ya

[hazy sundial]

i heard there is an interview to be a staff member

[sick lance]

You*

Friendly English fix. 🙂

[boreal scarab]

https://tenor.com/view/britney-spears-starbucks-bored-sips-tea-gif-18339274

[crude stump]

Disrespecting staff?? Muted

[atomic aurora]

What do you guys use as a note taking software/website? I was using Notion until previously, but i’m looking to find other options.

[sick lance]

This is a whole can of worms.

[whole yew]

Scrubz isn't staff, Scrubz is a community volunteer.

[atomic aurora]

Oh god

[mossy river]

Yup! https://tryhackme.notion.site/Careers-at-TryHackMe-6bd665d7bd3448348d04fa06f4b4ef66

[hazy sundial]

Notion best

[atomic aurora]

I don’t like worms.

[crude stump]

Welp

[pliant cairn]

I just finished mr. Robot. Its a masterpiece 💯

[crude stump]

Let me correct “disrespecting community volunteer?? Muted”

[sick lance]

The room or the series?

[pliant cairn]

Series and yes the room is great too.

[atomic aurora]

But not very private right? I know they follow SOC2 but still

[hazy sundial]

i just started it. i had a friend who started hacking only because of it

[near hawk]

I forget how many roles we have live atm 😀

[rapid merlin]

Hi Blackout 👋🏻 !

[near hawk]

👋

[rapid merlin]

been days man!

[pliant cairn]

So well made. 🤌

[crude stump]

I would say obsidian but I know how much toaster despises it

[hazy sundial]

yeah idk

[sick lance]

Really the beat note taking app is one you're comfortable using.

[hazy sundial]

if u say so

[atomic aurora]

Yeah i’ve heard of Obsidian before, i’ll look into it. Thanks!

[sick lance]

What works for one, might not work for another.

[hazy sundial]

yeah at first i was using notepad for my notes

[crude stump]

Google docs

[hazy sundial]

fr

[atomic aurora]

Correct, but I like to think that as cybersecurity minded people, we all have a certain sense of what works best in our field. Security and privacy are surely factors we take into account right?

[crude stump]

Hold on let me pull up my google doc real quick

[atomic aurora]

And i’m just looking for some new programs/websites to look into :)

[boreal scarab]

I quite like Trilium, hasn't been working on the latest releases. I like the note within note within note within note kinda note taking

[pliant cairn]

The only show i have watched till now which shows actually hacking. Open for suggestions which are like this.

[atomic aurora]

Thank you 📝

[twin ridge]

Gave +1 Rep to @boreal scarab (current: #30 - 264)

[boreal scarab]

Welcome!

[crude stump]

Documentary’s

[boreal scarab]

And the recent versions not working is a me issue.

[hazy sundial]

i have no ideea

[boreal scarab]

@atomic aurora

[crude stump]

That’s a question for the 3d printing master ralexander

[boreal scarab]

Works on my laptop, not on my desktop cause everything likes to break for me

[pliant cairn]

Well other genres than documentaries i mean. Fiction always make it look like some 3d holographic thing lol

[crude stump]

Or esqy but

[atomic aurora]

Got it. Thanks. Hopefully you can fix the issue! 🙏🏼

[hazy sundial]

Yeah, I was surprised that in the first episode, the codes he used in the terminal were genuine.

[pliant cairn]

You are in for a rollercoaster ride. Hope you enjoy it.

[boreal scarab]

With my track record, probably not

[atomic aurora]

[crude stump]

Make it worse you mean

[boreal scarab]

Windows 10: 70+
Windows 11: 2
Windows 7: 3
CentOS: 2

I like posting this lmao

All the OS's I broke

[hazy sundial]

I'm currently studying to get my eJPT.

[atomic aurora]

[pliant cairn]

Anyone working on windows api for malware dev ans static analysis? Im stuck with a couple of questions

[high mulch]

Yeah, I did the room twice. lol I had fun with it.

[pliant cairn]

Well. Thats more fun haha

[atomic aurora]

Hey, as long as you learn from your mistakes and turn them into lessons

My first time setting up a Pfsense firewall, I went a bit overboard with the configuration and locked myself out. Lesson learnt

[hazy sundial]

ye...

[boreal scarab]

If you built an OS, give it to me before releasing. I'll be sure to break test it thoroughly.

[pliant cairn]

Im trying pfsense too. I managed to set it up but snort rules is not that smooth i can say that

[atomic aurora]

Noted

[boreal scarab]

https://tenor.com/view/bender-futurama-laugh-sarcastic-fun-gif-12163274

[atomic aurora]

Ja snort is snort.. Suricata is also a good option, depends on what you’re looking for

[high mulch]

I watched blackhats, I heard they had some infosec people involved in the film. It's more like an action movie, but there's some hacking involved.

The thing is, because it's a movie, I had to also think of how they had to set up the time for everything, so I was already expecting some stuff getting done quick.

[boreal scarab]

On WiFi Pineapple needs to be on there... @loud marlin can vouch. I broke it within 24 hours of getting it

[pliant cairn]

Never heard that before. I eill check it out.

[shut hawk]

What made you want to switch?

[pliant cairn]

Ohh..added to my watchlist. Action movies are fun over the weekend.

[high mulch]

It's about a, of course, blackhat hacker. Played by this guy he played Thor... This movie is from 2015 or 2016 I believe.

[pliant cairn]

Try notion XD

[atomic aurora]

I was just curious how private and secure Notion was, and I read some reviews saying that Notion is pretty “unprivate”.

It isn’t the first time that I hear that idea’s got sold that were written on Notion, or that staff can access your notes, etc

THATS the way to do it

[hazy sundial]

bruh what notes are you taking that you dont want people to find out?

[shut hawk]

Could you provide a source for this?

[high mulch]

Do you guys use notes at all?

[pliant cairn]

Only if you make the notes public i guess. But nothing is impenetrable so, its just the matter of time but ig its fine till now

[hazy sundial]

ofc this is the most important thing if you wanna be a hacker

[high mulch]

I type them in my imaginary machine with my imaginary keyboard.

[hazy sundial]

nobody can momories everything

[atomic aurora]

Nothing crazy but i wanted to keep track of my finances using the finance tracker template etc

[high mulch]

Yeah, I know, I was just teasin' lol

[atomic aurora]

no, it has been a while. If I come across it i’ll share it with you!
