[sour dirge]

Am I really having botnets on my device? Like why tf is this shit coming in few of the websites

[still hare]

do you use a vpn?

sometimes flags it on public vpn's particularly free ones

[sour dirge]

Noo

[sick lance]

Have you tried any sort of bug bounty on them?

[sour dirge]

Btw using vpn bypasses it , what tf is wrong with my wifi or device

Yeah

Kind of not that much

Just tried to intercept request by reqable and downloaded a network certificate from them

[sick lance]

Well, that answers your own question.

[sour dirge]

Btw I did remove it

Btw it still gives the error

[still hare]

clear cache and try resetting modem but leave it off for a minute first, usually by default most modems get assigned ip dynamically

[sour dirge]

The wifi is working fine on other devices

[still hare]

sometimes can be configured differently tho unless you requested static

[eager marsh]

boi

[still hare]

then just clear your cache, probably just session data

[sick lance]

Does an action

Triggers security

Doesn't read how to fix it.

[sour dirge]

The websites doesn't work on any of the browser

[sour dirge]

I have read this

The error is not only on one site

[eager marsh]

Wow MISP is confusing

[still hare]

if vpn bypasses it, it should be your wifi are you sure other devices can access the site on same wifi?

[eager marsh]

What the hell is a galaxy?

[still hare]

context?

[sour dirge]

I will check it again w8 .

[sick lance]

[sour dirge]

Not only phone

[eager marsh]

I'm doing the MISP room

[eager marsh]

Never mind got it

Man I should be taking notes smh

[sick lance]

[chilly veldt]

[sick lance]

[boreal scarab]

[sick lance]

1. the VPN
2. the connection type.

[shut hawk]

what networking protocol?

[median swift]

can you help me set it up?

[sick lance]

Which VPN are you using?

[median swift]

not sure but it seems like actually adding a new connection

[sick lance]

Well, I use Malware-Bytes, I downloaded their VPN manager, and just connect.

[primal kestrel]

i'm surprised that works

you aren't connecting to THM over it are you?

[glossy mantle]

any mods, need help. my monthly premium subscription did not reflect in thm however the payment went thru

[median swift]

i dont know whats the best for me to connect thats why am seeking help before i make a mess!

There is no point trying to connect to a VPN if you don't know the VPN you're trying to connect to.

[median swift]

just want o make the connection

[sick lance]

Going forward, Discord mods aren't THM staff.

[eternal timber]

It seems like you just want to get started with using vpns. Try connecting to THM’s vpn with openvpn

hello,i I need to research the vulnerability market, but I don't know where to look. Can you help me?

[chilly veldt]

in what way?

[broken cypress]

research the vulnerability market?

[rapid merlin]

I bought the annual subscription, and I procrastinated for 1 month...

I did 0x7 in a week and no progress from then on 😭

[broken cypress]

you need to setup goals, try learn for some rewards, or just for streaks, points und stuff

[sick lance]

You make it look like you're looking to buy...

[broken cypress]

exactly. greetings

[vagrant tusk]

Being a pentest is difficult, I can't understand almost anything

[sick lance]

Are you uh, doing this on a VM on a CTF, or are you actually performing a pentest, as that's quite concerning.

[sick lance]

👋

[vagrant tusk]

I'm looking at the free roadmap

[sick lance]

Phew.

[sick lance]

Uh, your cats...

One is asking for food, the other is telling you it wants food.

[broken cypress]

yep

[rapid merlin]

One thing that is letting me behind is thought that learning this won't land me any job. I have bit materialistic thought. I see so many talented people in this field, so it discourages to learn it further. 😭 I know I have a lot of negative thoughts to conquer...

[chilly veldt]

ngl, I want to set up my mixer and mix some music in the office

instead of working

[broken cypress]

this is from reddit r/cats?

[sick lance]

I thought they were yours 😂

[broken cypress]

omg

[vagrant tusk]

I'm not literally doing pen testing but learning but it's very difficult, concepts I've never seen before

[sick lance]

Yeah, I'd suggest you take notes.

[vagrant tusk]

On top of that, I'm Portuguese, I only know basic English

[broken cypress]

internet is small after all i guess. to be honest i was shocked..

sadly, the one on the left is not with me anymore. it's tough

[rapid merlin]

should someone learn to use nano when they already know Vim?

[broken cypress]

should one learn any skills?

[sick lance]

What do you do if you get on a machine and vim isn't installed?

[rapid merlin]

like using notepad.exe?

[broken cypress]

or pluma

[rapid merlin]

I read the page man for one that exists, example: https://man.openbsd.org/ed

otherwise text editors are like Pokemon cards

might as well learn emacs next 😄

[sick lance]

I disagree, my Pokémon cards are worth more than my text editors.

[rapid merlin]

it is good to have a hobby

I was about to ask if they did LEGO yet. They already did from the looks of it.

[sick lance]

Yeah. Lego was ages ago

[rapid merlin]

Are you playing the expansion?

[sick lance]

Yeah

[wheat pecan]

I as a beginner learnt vim

[rapid merlin]

Yes, it is not too difficult to get the basics.

[wheat pecan]

yupp this was easy

[rapid merlin]

nano came from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pico_(text_editor)

[wheat pecan]

But difficult in remembering commands😅

[rapid merlin]

which was an email client

[rapid merlin]

not uncommon to see people with cheat sheets of commands 🙂

Coffee really helps me focusing

I don't know why

Like i literally solved something i was struggling for 3 days

[pliant cairn]

caffine

now you know

[wooden totem]

I sure wonder what's in the coffee that enhances capabilities of the mind

[devout palm]

It's caffeine

But how does it help me focus?

Is it related to ADHD?

[wooden totem]

Do you struggle with motivation, frequently tired or lazy?

[devout palm]

For instance, if i drink coffee i can talk very fluently and create better sentences

[devout palm]

Yea

[sick lance]

Are you sitting an exam now?

[wooden totem]

Nvm im not explaining in my style, here

[jagged otter]

hey scrub, that site you showed me. I can't remember if it was invite only or they were still working on it. I was curious how it was going

[devout palm]

I know i should go see a psychiatrist. But was tangling my head for a bit.

[jagged otter]

@scrubz look at the message i sent before this one

[chilly veldt]

or just wait for him, he's probably busy

no, it's for another day. I need to find information to explain to my group this market for example zerodium, 0-day ...

Can anyone help out

[sick lance]

Leave and re join the room with options

[timid portal]

Still it showing two questions only

[primal kestrel]

i think that room is bugged

i completed it some time ago and i just went to check again. it said i hadn't finished task 6 and trying to do it again doesn't let me complete it

[timid portal]

Yes same issues

[tough tiger]

I had the same issue, leave the room and then join back up\

[timid portal]

I did this ..still have the same issues

[tough tiger]

I refreshed but had no luck, then I went to the options tab, selected Leave, then I joined room again and answered the questions again and it completed.

would these be appropriate for THM boxes?

Probably a little overkill for THM tbf
Maybe just use burp repeater

check your profile copy discord code and use bot /verify paste it and done

[long sand]

So I just loaded up my kali linux for the second time and its a black screen with a blinking cursor

I tried reseting and stil same problem

[clear jackal]

[rapid merlin]

OSCP worth it?

[solemn blade]

depends

[rapid merlin]

on

[clear jackal]

Going to need more information to provide assistance

[rapid merlin]

is OSCP worth it as a starting cert for a pentesting career*

[solemn blade]

what you wanna do. i wanna brew beer , not very useful for me

[solemn blade]

Yes

[clear jackal]

Do you have prior professional experience in Cybersecurity or a degree?

[rapid merlin]

negative

[clear jackal]

Then no

[solemn blade]

today a lot more companies give value to oscp

[clear jackal]

Pentesting is not an entry level occupation within the computer industry as a whole

Certifications without experience or a degree don't really mean anything. Certifications are used to quantify professional experience.

This conversation is also best held in #cyber-and-careers

[rapid merlin]

alright

[long sand]

Is their a way to fully reset the kali linux virtual box or do like a full reset? hopding this might resolve the booting issue

Where do you guys apply the knowledge gained from THM? I hear some use HTB to solve boxes, bug bounty, etc. Curious to know!

[rapid merlin]

The first box didn’t shift the black at all

[chilly veldt]

Oofers

[rapid merlin]

I’m trying again

I will need to go buy some coconut oil for my hair after this

[barren cove]

Is OSINT worth opting for as a career?

[primal kestrel]

wtf is oscp study time actually 750-1000 hrs?

[chilly veldt]

Not really

[barren cove]

Any reasons

[primal kestrel]

i like doing the THM boxes. i also do some over the wire related content. i tried HTB but i found the site's setup kind of confusing

[rapid merlin]

Kebab for me

[chilly veldt]

I bought a french toast

[sick lance]

Expensive P&P.

[chilly veldt]

there's not really that many positions where it's useful, you'll have to get really good at it, and it's usually tied up to something more

[rapid merlin]

Ordered a lovely lamb kebab to deal with the aftermath of a morning Monday shift

Amen

[chilly veldt]

I bought a cheesebomb burrito/french toast

[barren cove]

And what about binary exploitation

[chilly veldt]

depends

pwning can be useful in some positions

[barren cove]

Exploit development right

[chilly veldt]

red teaming

[barren cove]

I am thinking to get into the field but seems complex Nd hectic

[chilly veldt]

sometimes even pentesting

[barren cove]

Digital forensics is also a good side but limited

[chilly veldt]

I work in digital forensics

well technically analysis and security engineering right now

but still doing some forensics

[sand trench]

[chilly veldt]

I'll send a pic of the whole thing when it arrives

[sand trench]

don't worry bella... it wont arrive... shadow is on route to intercept it and eat it

[rain heart]

Nice

Forensics is crazy

My boss in a project told me they found a fugitive with the photo of a outlet who exists in one country only

[gusty river]

that doesn't sound that crazy

also that's actually OSINT not forensics

it's been almost 10 hours since i've eaten

[rapid merlin]

Okay so about two inches of my hair is dark brown but the rest stayed black

[sand trench]

no legal or ethical reason to destroy stuff but some people do it out of anger or just to be a bag of trash

[rapid merlin]

My hair is fighting me

Did you go blonde ? 👀

[chilly veldt]

platinum

[rapid merlin]

Oh myyyyy I want it

[sand trench]

well the hair is technically only alive when it is in the hair folicle.. as soon as it is outside to the open air it is already dead

[chilly veldt]

and then pink

[sand trench]

shadow wants silver white hair but that is near impossible to do

[rapid merlin]

I’ve had every colour but I’m getting old now, gotta go light 😂

[shell nova]

Sorta glad I don't have that problem...

[sand trench]

BALD???

[shell nova]

It'll probably come naturally 🙂

[shell nova]

Nah

[rapid merlin]

So do I but my hair is black and the black isn’t coming out

As soon as bleach touches my hair it turns to spaghetti

[sand trench]

shadows hair is currently dirty blonde

[sand trench]

assuming shadow does not go bald ;-;

[wooden totem]

I have no idea what color my hair is

[shell nova]

Probably be fine

[shell nova]

Mirrors exist?

[sand trench]

alternatively just look at it in front of your eyes if long enough

[rapid merlin]

I have no idea what my natural colour is, I’ve been dying my hair since I was like 11

[wooden totem]

Hold on let me google that, first time hearing about this wonderful stuff

[shell nova]

Mine's like dark brownish

And greys coming through a bit 😦

[sand trench]

mostly decently bright blonde hair... with some redish brown and some black mixed in

hence dirty blonde

[final socket]

Hey

Guys what's good

[rapid merlin]

I found one gray hair in my eyebrow that’s why I’m going blonde 😂

[shell nova]

Haha

Dark to light is tricksy

[rapid merlin]

I was spooked

I thought I was turning into a wizard

[chilly veldt]

if I don't double bleach my hair, then I turn ginger

[shell nova]

Oh I got there 6 years ago

[rapid merlin]

That’s what mine will look like if I bleach it, I’ll get banding

shadows hair was normal blonde when they were young....

except year 0-3 where it was completely black

dunno what happened with that

[shell nova]

That happens

yeah it is confusing to shadow as they dunno the reasons it can do that without any physical harm

My daughter was born with dark brown hair and now she’s blonde

I don’t know how

😂

[shell nova]

I was born with blonde hair and now it's dark so iunno

[rapid merlin]

Yeah my dad was born with white hair and then his hair went dark

[shell nova]

Probably some recessive genes

[rapid merlin]

💅

[barren cove]

How's your experience

[shell nova]

My beard is like black, brown, red, blonde and white at the same time

[rapid merlin]

can I just say that I really appreciate the amount of free education TryHackMe puts out

honestly

being jobless atm and still trying to keep skills sharp

it really helps

there is so much exciting info on tryhackme it is actually insane

[rapid merlin]

ooo you got beard?

me too

mine is like mostly black though

some brown hair could be seen in the in the sun

[shell nova]

Wife bars me from shaving it completely...

[rapid merlin]

thats good XD

[shell nova]

not for any particular reason, aside that I lose like 10 years >.<

[rapid merlin]

beard does that to ya

[shell nova]

last time I shaved completely I got carded at the pub

[rapid merlin]

never been to a pub but dont they card everyone?

[clear jackal]

Same

It's one of the only times I've been carded

The other was with my mom

[jolly forge]

Brother when is the next video 😄

[shell nova]

only if you're obviously underage usually 😉

or there's reasonable doubt

[rapid merlin]

my brother, I dont even know, I have 3 uni classes, plus a master's thesis I have to write, plus using tryhackme on almost daily basis not to lose my skills

so yeah

XDD

In Shaa Allah, I wanna make high quality videos, the videos I have put out over the year are not that good

[jolly forge]

Wow, I hope it works out brother. Stay strong.

[rapid merlin]

[rapid merlin]

I been wanting to do CPTS for a long time but at the moment my financials arent there yet

so this is why I was mentioning how thankful I am for TryHackMe to have put out so much free materials

[jolly forge]

true and its an easier way to get into the industry

[rapid merlin]

so now I also pwn boxes

[rapid merlin]

ehhh debatable tbh but I see what you mean

should I try applying for jobs in Denmark?

[jolly forge]

well experience always helps but is also hard to get the foot in the door

[rapid merlin]

actually that reminds me

can I dm you?

I dont wanna do promotions here

as it is against the rules

[jolly forge]

You can but just know that learning the language is a priority here

Why native speaker

[clear jackal]

If you have a role that you're hiring for, you will need to verify with someone on the Admin team. Once they verify your credentials, you will be given a recruiter role so you can post on #jobs-board

[primal kestrel]

bored rn what's a thm ctf y'all would recommend?

[jagged otter]

This legit?

[ruby sand]

You know as much as we do, might as well go to the source.

[jagged otter]

Why did he go silent? I don't trust that.

@sinful bluff Can't advertise jobs in this channel. 🙂

[neon merlin]

What do you think is the best LLM at the moment? Still ChatGPT?

[chilly veldt]

Morning

[chilly veldt]

Depends

[neon merlin]

Which one learns best from user input. Or in another phrase. Which one remembers the most previous data before it's deleted?

I know ChatGPTs limited memory has a certain character limit

[cloud quiver]

Have you tried PenTest GPT ?

[inner pine]

Good morning hackers

[neon merlin]

Yeah

Should have specified for general use though, not for hacking stuff

Like what's the best general use LLM

[chilly veldt]

There's Claude

[humble bane]

what programming language you guys think is most usefull for hackers? and then i am talking about applications that can be used like port scanner or whatever. is python or c# better?

[tepid furnace]

https://tenor.com/view/mr-fresh-cat-kiryu-yakuza-gif-5604651096925224333

I like python personally

but look into bash/lua/python

[fast inlet]

i checked out the company behind Claude antrophic and their website

in their hiring process they have like 6+ interviews lol

https://www.anthropic.com/careers

that's kinda ridiculous

i think you dont get that many interviews even at faangs

[humble bane]

i dont really understand what bash is? isnt that like a command line language?

[tepid furnace]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bash_(Unix_shell)

It's the shell you're probably most familiar with

[fast inlet]

"lemme go through this fast and easy 4 months-long 8 interviews process to maybe get hired at Anthropic ltd. for this IT help desk role!"

[tepid furnace]

but it's also great for writing scripts

I wouldnt say it's as easy as python

but I think it's nice

if you're familiar with the cli and using linux you'll like it since it's the same commands anyways

[humble bane]

i know bash commands and stuff but how can i use commands to make a code, thats what i dont understand. like i make a script that just executes a bunch of commands or what

[tepid furnace]

yur

that is what a script is

[neon merlin]

PhD and 10 years experience needed

[humble bane]

but python is a script language and it doesnt have commands right?

[neon merlin]

"For operations or policy roles, you’ll get a take-home assignment."

"Do free labour for us"

[rapid merlin]

My favourite were jobs asking for 5+ years experience developing with iPhone when it just released

[fast inlet]

their website looks really nice and smooth though, i gotta admit

i dont know why but AI companies always have top-notch websites

[tepid furnace]

think about it this way

python can do anything bash can do and most likely better

however

[rapid merlin]

I don't take job descriptions seriously anymore

[tepid furnace]

bash is faster then python

[humble bane]

alr

[tepid furnace]

but bash is also just nicer for some things

like using grep or normal stuff

much easier to write it in bash then a longer solution in python

[humble bane]

alr

[neon merlin]

Please tell me that an interview, 2-5 hour assesment, a 3rd interview, 3-4 more 1 hour interviews and maybe one last interview for good measure is not standard in cyber jobs.

[autumn solar]

In my experience, there's no blanket answer. Shellcode development, native application exploit development, web application exploit development, all require different languages. You've gotta recognize which one is right in the moment.

[humble bane]

but, so python is also a command language?

[chilly veldt]

Rust

[tepid furnace]

mm

nop

[neon merlin]

That's like 10 hours of free labour at least

[fast inlet]

it isn't, they're just crazy at Anthropic it seems

[rapid merlin]

@neon merlin it's for a slave job. the best tech job is for a c-suite role, which happens at a lunch and is around 1 hour

[tepid furnace]

python is just general purpose

mostly automation imo

but because it's general purpose you can do alot

[neon merlin]

over a game of golf

[tepid furnace]

but yes also do check out rust

[autumn solar]

I personally like Python, but there are situations in which it falls short and situations in which it excels.

[humble bane]

but script is execution of a bunch of commands like bash or not

[rapid merlin]

yet you need the experience and networking

[tepid furnace]

yes but no

it can be

it doesnt have to be

[humble bane]

so its a general lanugage but it can also be used for scripts

alr alr

[tepid furnace]

python is usually used for that yeah

automation/scripting

[autumn solar]

Assembly is nice if you can stand reading all 4K pages of the IA-32 software developer's manual.

[rapid merlin]

@neon merlin I have never golf with c-suites

[tepid furnace]

but check out all of the mentioned languages so you can know what they look like

[fast inlet]

where is a roadmap to become a c suite for big company? Am interested

[rapid merlin]

might be a trend in certain countries

[tepid furnace]

it'll be useful to be able to recognize what a program is doing on the fly

[humble bane]

ok

[rapid merlin]

@fast inlet hack financial software and report it

[humble bane]

thanks @tepid furnace , now i got clarification

[twin ridge]

Gave +1 Rep to @tepid furnace (current: #688 - 6)

[rapid merlin]

4am disassembly emails 😉

[tepid furnace]

yur

[neon merlin]

If I wanted to change my career from teacher to something IT related, what do you think is the first decent job on the IT rung that I could possibly get? I'm 34 with a family so min wage helpdesk isn't really what I'm after.

[autumn solar]

This is another reason an education in assembler is good. If you want to be able to reverse engineer, @humble bane , you've gotta be able to read low level code and translate it back to high level in your head.

[humble bane]

alr thanks, i will check that out

[chilly veldt]

Finally, life has begun sounding like
https://open.spotify.com/track/14VthBnru6kiREQUYAuNSL?si=mOa81E65QCWElTht6w03qg

[fast inlet]

you could land other roles but you will not get paid much more than that given it'll be your first role in the field with no prev. experience, or at least i'd be surprised if you did

[neon merlin]

Damn, not really looking to change to a lower salary.

[autumn solar]

Who is?

[fast inlet]

but it depends on a lot of factors, i would say best bet is to look on Linkedin for those jobs in your area and see how much they pay if they disclose it, or ask recruiters

[neon merlin]

Well when you're young and single you can take those entry level jobs or unpaid internships. That's an advantage young people have.

[fast inlet]

if you wanna make the good ol' career switcheroni, you gotta

you're not old at 34 lol, but yeah having a family to support definitely changes things

[fast inlet]

the salary ceiling is much higher than the one of a teacher though, once you get your career going

[neon merlin]

Probably only planning on working for another 21 years too. wonder if it's worth it.

[fast inlet]

thats an oddly specific number of years your plan to work for

[neon merlin]

Well 34 now, retire at 55

[fast inlet]

i mean, what gives u the certanty that you'll be able to retire at 55

could be sooner could be later, could be never
you never know 😂

[rapid merlin]

that's a great point, you never know

expect the unexpected in life

[neon merlin]

Well if I win the lottery it will be sooner 😂

[rapid merlin]

what do you need to retire?

[fast inlet]

personally i buy tech stocks, might be more likely than lottery

[rapid merlin]

@fast inlet you get a sense of future security by doing that

[neon merlin]

I'm not one for stocks, just property.

[rapid merlin]

owning assets of value

[chilly veldt]

Welcome to losing your entire network in one night

[neon merlin]

According to PayScale.com, SysAdmins can expect to make:

United States - Average: $67,090 | Range: $49-94k
Canada - Average: $63,618 | Range: $46k-86k
United Kingdom - Average: £28,289 | Range: £20k-44k
Australia - Average: $74,315 | Range: $55k-100k

why does UK just hate tech workers?

Like a middle manager in a call centre is making more than 28k just bossing people around

[prisma mulch]

maybe take some google certs to start, check out my DFIR on youtube

[cloud quiver]

Try with CCNP if you're interested in networking/system administration

[neon merlin]

Alright I'll check it out

Kinda disturbed by that pay scale tho

[true vault]

Now take cleared work into consideration

Can I link my site rank to here?

[neon merlin]

If I was going to get an IT related role it would be moving to UK, as I have a passport there. But seems like they pay IT workers like crap.

[true vault]

A large portion of EU also pays IT work like crap in comparison. But you also have to keep in mind that in general cost of living is higher in the US.

And in general the IT market is pretty competitive right now in the US, especially after a lot of large company layoffs and so many people trying to get into the industry.

[neon merlin]

Right now I work in a developing country, on a western salary. I don't think I can move back to the west without a substantial quality of life loss. But there's literally no pension in the developing country I live in lol so I need to go back eventually.

[true vault]

If the difference is truly that big, you can make up for the loss of the pension by actually investing the money properly.

But then again, no idea on all your specifics.

[neon merlin]

I think Switzerland pays IT stuff really well doesn't it? Like a repair guy gets 5000 CHF a month ($5795 USD)

[clear jackal]

US gets taxed differently and the cost of living is much different. You can't just go off raw salary.

Cities like New York, DC, LA, and San Francisco also heavily skew the data

[true vault]

I don't know where you're from, but the EU blue card visa requirements for IT positions became a lot easier.

https://www.apply.eu/

[neon merlin]

What would be great is if I can stay where I am and work remotely for a UK company.

UK cost of living too high.

[true vault]

International remote work is rare.

[neon merlin]

I am originally from UK

But I've been living outside of UK for quite some time

[rapid merlin]

you have to look at the benefits they offer

[neon merlin]

Not too much tbf

[rapid merlin]

a friend of mine recently left their job in a EU country for a US job, way more pay yet they miss working where they were

consider culture as well

[true vault]

Also consider the sheer size and diversity of the US. There is something for everyone there.

Great place to live if you have money.

[rapid merlin]

that is true as well

[neon merlin]

Don't miss working in the UK too much. Getting to the end of the month and having £200 to save or spend after rent and bills.

[rapid merlin]

yet the stress to obtain that money can be not a good fit for everyone

unless of course money is your goal

[neon merlin]

Just enough money to live a lifestyle.

[true vault]

Guess it depends on the role and the company you're at.

I work my normal hours, go home, have no expectations of after hours work

[rapid merlin]

a very personalize choice

we also all need growth

[true vault]

hybrid role

[neon merlin]

My job sucked in UK I was ops manager at an emergency control room.

If the server went down it was my problem 24/7

[rapid merlin]

you found that too stressful for how you were compensated for the role

[neon merlin]

Getting called at 3am to remote login and reboot stuff

[rapid merlin]

did not seem fair

[true vault]

Idk I just do GRC/RMF mostly now. I get my technical kicks as a hobby.

[neon merlin]

Not for 24k a year it wasn't

[true vault]

So I don't deal with the on call stuff.

[rapid merlin]

I hear ya, I am a social worker in retirement, love my job

this is all for fun

I do have a cybersecurity background though

[true vault]

I have a very...diverse...background

[rapid merlin]

awesome, seems most of us do 🙂

I have a feeling we all love problem solving

[neon merlin]

Yeah like if I changed to cyber security it would be my third career change.

[rapid merlin]

that's great

right on 😉

[true vault]

Changes are fun

[rapid merlin]

I feel our own experience brings a diversity to our team/work which makes us valuable in a unique way

that's my opinion at least

[neon merlin]

Started in emergency control centre operation answering phones, went up to management. Became annoyed with that. Ran away across the world to be a primary school teacher, now kinda bored with that.

[rapid merlin]

ya you are so seeking growth

challenging your self 🙂

can relate

[true vault]

definitely seek out growth

maybe not in a SOC

but that's just my advice XD

[rapid merlin]

a lot of opportunities in cybersecurity, in different areas

[true vault]

you know what? I take back my advice on no SOCs. I'm just burnt out on ops floors in general/shiftwork.

[neon merlin]

Any of them where speaking Chinese and English is a bonus?

[true vault]

valuable experience and can be fun

[true vault]

lol if you're a UK citizen and have no criminal history, go work for the gov and get cleared

that Chinese will be very valuable

[neon merlin]

I'm looking for a role where I could leverage being able to speak Chinese and be familiar with their country. If such a role exists.

[rapid merlin]

I hear that, had to juggle social work for that same reason, in fact now taking vacation time simply to heal any burnout, and explore stuff I'm passionate about

[neon merlin]

And familiar with how business works there

[rapid merlin]

that can be draining

[neon merlin]

Might be an option, I wanted to sign up for intelligence analyst with the RAF when I was 18. I should have just done that tbh. Regrets.

I would probably have an awesome cyber security role by my age now

[rapid merlin]

never too late to explore stuff

[true vault]

are you fluent in Chinese?

because yes that would be valuable...

[rapid merlin]

definitely

[neon merlin]

I can get there with a bit more practice. I'm daily conversational.

But not in high tech vocab

It's one of those things when you're 18. The RAF asked for 7 year minimum of work if they trained me. And at 18 that seems like a long time so I refused.

[true vault]

yeah i'd definitely highlight that on your resume

[rapid merlin]

agreed

[neon merlin]

But I'd already be out of the RAF now with loads of skills

[true vault]

we all take different roads to get where we go

just dont drive off a cliff trying to get there faster

[rapid merlin]

😄 so true

[true vault]

no mario kart rainbow road shortcuts here

[rapid merlin]

hah!

strangely my first cybersecurity role was due to doing walk and talks with someone

that was the interview

I simply did cybersecurity because it was fun

it was never a career path

I would be a listener for them vent their stuff

[true vault]

that's why people say networking is so important

[rapid merlin]

and they let me share my wild tech stories

[true vault]

funny how it works

[rapid merlin]

human behavior 😉

[true vault]

yep

700 points from OxA

[rapid merlin]

@true vault what excites you moving forward, still in cybersecurity? if so what kind of area?

[dreamy mirage]

uhmm

can some one help me please, i got a bug from the osi model

[true vault]

To be completely honest? I kindof like being a jack of all trades. I get bored easily, and like a challenge. I want to explore a whole bunch of different. I do the boring compliance stuff and audits right now, but I really like the physical security side and of course want to try red teaming.

[dreamy mirage]

i cant finish the room for some reason

[true vault]

Doesn't matter, just throw me into something new and I'll roll with it.

[rapid merlin]

I hear ya, red team definitely is where the challenge can be

[rapid merlin]

that might be #974406074444685322

[true vault]

probably #site-support or #room-help

[rapid merlin]

[orchid tusk]

Could the server be all screwy today? Haven’t had this issue before…

[rapid merlin]

yet I have completed the Pre Security

[orchid tusk]

So it shows it as completed then? Huh, weird

[rapid merlin]

a great reminder nothing is perfect

[true vault]

huh, maybe it's a side quest

[rapid merlin]

ikr

no no no

Yeah, it's just law doesn't change just because you're friends.

not to damage something like a company

Nah, it doesn't work like that.

This isn't a field where you can just pick up and have "battles with your friends".

[gritty zephyr]

Just a question out of curiosity, how often do things like linpeas and equivalents get used in real life pentesting? Like i would think they would be way too noisy, right? So it feels a bit like "cheating" when using it for ctfs, instead of manual privesc

[rapid merlin]

morning everyone

[prime sluice]

Depends if its a normal pentest or a red-team engagment. If it red-team engagement, its obviously to noisy. Else on a normal pentest you are allowed to test the asset, so then its do not matter, if you use these tools. It can help you easier spot issues sometimes. Its always find the methodology that works for you. If the tool helps you in anyway to get the job done why not run it.

[rapid merlin]

obviously it's noisy, but if SOC knows that you are testing there isn't an issue. If you mean malicious actors then no

[devout palm]

WAZZAAAA

[gritty zephyr]

Right, so acknowledged pentesting (so overt testing) should be fine, covert is a no go

Thanks man

[rapid merlin]

@gritty zephyr https://attack.mitre.org/ Mitre is good for looking at how ATP's work and they're TTP's, no doubt you've seen this before

yeah, i know. just any job computer related

and could you work from home?

[boreal scarab]

For IT Support?

Yes and no

[jagged otter]

i would suck at IT support

[boreal scarab]

Depends on what you do. If you're shipping out equipment, or supporting users in an office, that's in office.

But if there's a quiet day, you can WFH. But if you're not doing anything in office/ interacting with anyone in person/ shipping anything else, pure WFH

So, lets go left to right. So:

Empty, RAM, Empty, RAM

Is that how yours is?

[rapid merlin]

[jagged otter]

[boreal scarab]

That is called a motherboard

[jagged otter]

lol

im sorry for laughing

[rapid merlin]

Why’s it so dummy thick

[boreal scarab]

He's a thiccccccccccc ass boi

[jagged otter]

it's a mother board heatsinks

and a lot of ports

[boreal scarab]

Do you have XMP or AEMP on?

[rapid merlin]

Why chat gpt not giving links anymore

[eager marsh]

All these strings

[jagged otter]

i don't think i do

i looked in the bios and didn't see that

if you think the motherboard is big you should see the Graphics card

freakin huge

[boreal scarab]

https://tenor.com/view/thats-what-she-said-what-she-said-dirty-joke-joke-laugh-gif-15661968

[jagged otter]

lol

i just don't think i'm getting the full potential of my ram

[boreal scarab]

https://www.manua.ls/asus/rog-strix-b650e-e-gaming-wifi/manual?p=19

Even that is saying A2 and B2

[jagged otter]

yeah, i checked it. but in the bios it doesn't say its dual

maybe i should just by more memory and feel the other slots

[boreal scarab]

Before doing that, try putting the ram in Slots A1 and B1

See if that shows up as dual channel

Make sure you shutdown your computer before you pull the ram lol

[jagged otter]

lmao

say the most crucial shit last

[boreal scarab]

[jagged otter]

did anyone else try that and it worked?

[boreal scarab]

I usually just fill the ram slots lol

[jagged otter]

yeah, maybe i should too

think it goes up to 32 gigs a slot

[boreal scarab]

You can go up to 128 GB, so yah, 32 GB a slot

[jagged otter]

seems like it should be able to take more

[clever swift]

anyone has ddos script

[jagged otter]

really?

[jagged otter]

you really just asked that

[clever swift]

yes

is any thing wrong

[boreal scarab]

Yes, this ia an ETHICAL hacking server... for https://tryhackme.com

[rapid merlin]

ddr5 is have only gone up to 48gb per stick

[boreal scarab]

They have 32

[gray sonnet]

Morning

[boreal scarab]

Oh wait

[jagged otter]

yeah but my motherboard says 32 a slot

[boreal scarab]

I know what uou meant

[clever swift]

i have 128☠️

😂

[jagged otter]

show us your set up

[boreal scarab]

4 x DIMM, Max. 128GB, DDR5 6400+(OC)/ 6200(OC)/ 6000(OC)/
5800(OC)/ 5600(OC)/ 5400(OC)/ 5200/ 5000/ 4800 ECC and Non-ECC,
Un-buffered Memory*
Dual Channel Memory Architecture
Supports AMD EXTended Profiles for Overclocking (EXPO™)

From the manual

[rapid merlin]

sorry I was just talking about the limit. I'm still on ddr4 and have 32gb per slot

[boreal scarab]

looks at server

Mmmmmmmm 256 GB DDR4 ECC RDIMM

[jagged otter]

yeah that's the same as what i read

[clever swift]

yeah ddr4 has only 32 gb slot

[boreal scarab]

Ponders if I should go 512 GB or 1 TB
Why? Because why the fuck not

[clever swift]

you can try 2X32

[jagged otter]

the ram isn't my problem, i'm just trying to get dual channel

[clever swift]

512GB of ram that would be fucking aowesome

[rapid merlin]

I was hoping ddr5 would bring 128gb per stick. I could have a itx with 256, that would be fantastic for network virtualisation

[clever swift]

hmm

[jagged otter]

ok i'll be back in a few. going in the bios and see if i can fix my issue

[clever swift]

can any one tell me about ddos and how to safe our system from it

it look like twister is gone

i will also back in few

[high mulch]

In regard to your system, set up a firewall.

regularly analyse traffic patterns to id anomalies and potential attacks

update your stuff

[clever swift]

thanks

[rapid merlin]

Firewall won't really do much for DDOS, you have to coordinate with your ISP to blackhole the ip

[clever swift]

govx

[jagged otter]

back

[clever swift]

hello

[jagged otter]

says expo is enabled

[clever swift]

h,,

[high mulch]

yes?

[clever swift]

can you take friend reqest

[gritty zephyr]

It is, tho stakeholder management is tough

[clever swift]

stakeholder?

[jagged otter]

he deals in salt

or stake holder for a vampire slayer

[boreal scarab]

Still no dual channel?

[jagged otter]

no, i don't see it

[boreal scarab]

Have you tried the A1 and B1?

[jagged otter]

not yet

i think i tried that before

EXPO (Extreme Memory Profile) but isn't showing its dual boot functionality, it likely means you need to check your BIOS settings to ensure the EXPO profile is correctly selected and activated; sometimes you might need to manually choose the specific EXPO profile that contains the dual boot settings within your BIOS.

i got this from google

[rapid merlin]

I can’t stop yawning

[jagged otter]

I was looking and I don't think it'll say dual memory

[boreal scarab]

Have you tried?

[jagged otter]

yes

[boreal scarab]

And A1 B1 still doesn't give you dual channel?

[jagged otter]

nope

i think i'm getting dual channel even though it's not saying it in the bios

i even looked at other people dual channel and going in bios and theirs does the same thing

[trail quest]

Hey how's it going everyone?

[thin raft]

good thanks for asking, how are you?

[boreal scarab]

https://www.hwinfo.com/download/
