damn
Let's say hypothetically you need to transmit a message of either yes or no with using a knock or some mono sound. Would 2 repeated knocks, or just 1 knock usually be understood as yes?
No knock = no
2 knocks yes
Knoxk=yes
Sorry, man. it's against the rules here. If someone helps, they'll get into trouble. It's not what this server is for
Like you nod your head
But that has that digital linearity thinf
I see. all good. thanks any way
Gave +1 Rep to @glass nest (current: #18 - 492)
What about 3 knocks
Kinda, except I'm using the money on Gacha games and wanting to build a dedicated home server to play around with. I'm interested in Cybersecurity as a whole because it really sticks with me, in other terms, it's more of a passion that I have for it.
Why use more bandwidth for the same data rate
Yeah im kind of the same person
@glass nest I havent done any learning today, just been playing stalker 2 lol
Idk universal forced language avoids miscommunication
Fae - Don't make me tell your boss

Best system is 1 knock for no, then 1 knock for syncronization, then 2 knocks for yes
Because
don't think I've played Stalker 2
That is the fastest way to transmit the message
Instead of usinf the basic 1 knock for no, and 2 knocks for yes, and using a time delay as syncronization
Omg i went too deep
Same, what attracted me to this platform was because of a Network Security class I was taking, and the platform we were using was a bit outdated, slow VMs(Crashed most of the time), and the content was a bit lacking in terms of information (No hate). So then I found this platform, a few months in, and I started enjoying it quite a lot. Now I'm here.
Chad - You realise that you are just describing Morse code, right?
Spam 7 knocks, pause, retry
Wait no
Morse code uses a time delay as a space
not really. A dash is just a dot with a time delay
While using a known combination of knocks as a sync is more complex but is faster
Well
It is different for knocks ?ΒΏ
Idk
You cant hold a knock
You knock and wait, it's the dash
My brain is trying to execute sleep(60) but im refusinf
Remindme > 5 minutes
I got it now, why use a combination of dashes/dots while a simple time delay is shorter time 
Would you guys understand 3 knocks as yes, biggest question. As 1 vs 2 varies too much and no response is same as not received for most
Lets talk about agriculture π
Will you come up with amazing ideas that were already implemented in the mid 1800s, like your morse code?
It's not about implementation, it's about what would be understood when you don't know any and can't communicate that
Zactly. same with any form of communication
Has anyone tried to plant something ?
i planted sunflower seeds and parsley but they never grown up
this is what this channel feels like every time I pop my head in lol
How would you communicate with an alien that is not familiar with human communication
Would aliens know what pointing is
even aliens wouldn't understand pointers
hello, i'm noob and i don't know how to start the virtual box of tryhackme on my kali linux. Could someone explain me pls?
i have the open vpn conneted
but vnc don't run
Just like our grandpas did πππ
someone wrote a book that was entire in emoji
@sick lance u failed at moderting, i helped the guy while ur hacking ur friends pc
This looks like natural pattern that happens or something, random shapes. Idk what a shape is
nah bro this must be a hash
I want to play geometry dash and have nostalgia
thanks
Gave +1 Rep to @knotty cargo (current: #964 - 4)
Good point Windy. might be a steganography image
I actually speak emoji
In fact i came into a ctf with this
You speak something, but it's not Emoji
And i didnt solve it
My personal diary is written in custom language i made
Hope forensics people don't put their hands on it
Its probably obfuscated and i need to deobfuscate it to read π
Is it just 1 letter forward
Ceaser cipher?
"moderting" ?
Guiding i guess
That is a goated song
problem with communication is that theres still a lot of cultural context thats needed to understand.
Watever
innit, fae
What exactly was there to moderate?
Its because im not using a keyboars that steals ur data and predicts what ur trying to type to make the next key hitbox bigger so u think u can write fast
Hey gang
Evening Mullen
I think you may need some tin foil

I hear they make great hats.
Very effective
Hi there! I'm glad to be amongst you!
Also protects from 5G cancer jk
Hex - It's after 7.. why you not gaming?
I'm at work
They also helps prevent people from reading your mind, or that's what I heard
Ahh, I getcha
Lots of people
π
Good afternoon THM crew.
Good Evening
Cricket! your hat isnt very xmassy π
Hows ur average day be like ? Are u stressed in work ?
But it's surely got style.
I rage at ctf so lol
Well I don't work full time. And no
Granted, It's stylish
What stff u do on an average ?
Like bug bounty etc
Bug Bounty π
Is that what you think a pentesters job is?
Thats how i imagine work will be like π
Nope
Being on a 13 inch laptop staring and trying to code
I get paid to break into companies physical locations, pinpoint weaknesses etc
Oooo so osint stuff included
Thats cool
Powershell baby and LOTL
Glad to hear this
Does anyone have experience working in SOC, and what's it like? I know everyone's experience is different, I just want some exposure to what it's like in the environment.
Im interested in hearing the answer too
hearing ?
Reading
Or hearing
Idk
Hope my hair washes up alright
I work in SOC as my main job but not the security you're thinking of.
We watch cameras and deal with humans breaking rules
And humans having heart attacks etc
Wouldn't want to get caught by you
My bro works in such thing
What do you mean humans breaking rules ?
do the humans who break the rules have heart attacks when they see you approaching them, Hex?
You running a IA to get alert on cctv cameras ?
Anyone else facing issue in logs refreshing of ELK?
I canβt see how heart attacks and breaking rules have any correlation either
Stealth - Have you seen Hex?
I have
Heβs been on video call in a call with me before
Theres the heart attack. for some, its fear. for others.. well, he's just a heartbreaker π
Well we are first responders
First response for people breaking laws and campus rules.
First response for first aids
Since when did I break hearts?
Is alcohol forbidden?
Who gets the second aids
I'm sure you broke CMNs π
Doctor
Ba dum tshhh
In all academic buildings yes. (With the exception of the Leathersellers Lounge)
how big is the campus?
Well catch me if you can 
I think I dyed my ear blue
For others it more like turning into a monument
W0t
Yeah
Stealth, Do I need to get the book out again?
I dyed my hair
Yeah beat that m up
Stealth, on a similar note, look up the Fugate people of Kentucky.
My bathroom look like a Smurf blood bath
Haii
Thats a cool pfp, clifford
Iβm going to hell π
Thanks
Gave +1 Rep to @glass nest (current: #18 - 493)
for cultural appropriation of the ear?
Coz I laughed
Need help, anyone here?
Depends on the help. Just go ahead and ask
.
I need help in every category of my life
I'm just a newbie in cybersecurity
Hello guys. Im completing the third task on AOC, but the attackbox is really slow.
Real
Atar - Just give it time. Site is super busy at the moment
Im here to help u with the spirtual category
60.745 Acres roughly
clifford - thats cool! this is a learning enviroment, after all π
Damn son. thats your cardio sorted
I don't know from where to start
Bro i swear this is ai chatting π
Check out #start-here Should give you a solid direction
Read this chapta: h a c k e r
I could be. how I would I even know?
How many r's in raspberry?
Please solve this Captcha to verify you are not a robot:
7+3(8-3) =
Depends. is it a pirate saying it?
To solve the expression ( 7 + 3(8 - 3) ), follow the order of operations (parentheses, exponents, multiplication and division, addition and subtraction):
- Calculate the expression inside the parentheses: ( 8 - 3 = 5 ).
- Multiply by 3: ( 3 \times 5 = 15 ).
- Finally, add 7: ( 7 + 15 = 22 ).
So, ( 7 + 3(8 - 3) = 22 ).
Thanks! But I'm still confused
Prox - I'm not your dancing monkey π
Aye aye captain
ChatGPT type of response
What's confusing ya, Clifford?
Well technicially theres no eay
If i told u to take a selfie then chatgpt can generate one
So yeah its getting scary
Like I don't know about the coding, I don't about networks
Well, don't worry about the coding. It's not important.
Nothin
https://open.spotify.com/track/2XfOIo7hhW4DMru4aGbGX7
Damn what a soundtrack
yo, how can I make sense of candump log file?
It called me "Terry" when I last ChatGPT
Chatgpt
Hop onto Tryhackme.com and sign up. Have a look around, and start on one of the learning paths. If its absolue 0, the pre-security path will be a good place to begin
Parse your data
Bro what πππ
This is revolutionary
How? Any tools?
I asked it a basic Arithmetic equation, and it was like "sure Terry" then began solving it
wdym sandboxed?
Does it think you are a chocolate orange?
Noo wayyy
canedge, canalyzer, canape....
It wont get ur ip i guess
So it cant verify its u by anyway
how would it not get my ip if im accessing the website
Alright! Does it give real world experience?
Clifford - yup. Theres a fair bit of reading, but they are made so that you'll be able to fire up a virtual machine and try the hacking, hands-on
Most of the labs I've done do use real world scenarios.
Its like it creates a session inside a session
plus theres an awesome community here to help you along π
Thank you so much :3
happy hacking clifford
Go strong clifford
Can I add you If I stuck at some point?
see? We got your back π
Just post in #room-help - general can get a little wild
Sure!
Its amazing how fast and skilled replies are in room help
Plus its literally free
Ahh people here being amazing fr
as far as i know uploading writeups for advent of cyber is currently forbidden right?
Yes
Do the writeups, just don't publish them until after the event π
cause i found 2 that are uploaded on medium
Advent of Code? that's something else.
advent of cyber, mb
I have 5 π
π
4 now π
Sheeeh
Ive the 15" laptop monitor plus a 43" behind it
And i rarely turn the big one up
I just use my gaming laptop
I feel i dont need it plus im sufferinf from eye dryness so im trying to minimize screen time
Looool
You can write write ups for AoC 2024
Just not the side quests
Wait are there side quests ?
Yes.
Come on github...wake up, global outage ?
oh okay thx for clarifying, thought all writeups are forbidden until january 1.
And the side quest is pretty challenging π
Its working for me
Really
is someone know how to make a web page in full screen ? i'm doing the third part of the advent and the screens are like having a full screen on the web page.
Im tired im gonna do them tomorrow
Yah.
Not for me
sol - F11?
Open a new page
F11
Then ctrl w
If ur trying to maximize the attackbox
I found this technuiqe useful
Hit the open full screen button
O_o ok thx !!
It opens it in a new tab.
pull requests broken here
But if they only have one monitor, where is the use putting that in full screen.
F11 wont work if it was on a seperate tab
Exactly
Wait lemme show yall my 200$ setup
My setup is one desk, and the foldable white tableπ
My setup is laptop
Prox - thats more legit that all the fancy stuff π
Lol
Out of all the things I have on my desk, I mainly use my laptop.
I mainly use my water bottle. Gotta stay hydrated
You didn't get me. My whole setup is laptop
Lap top + laptop
Hydrate or diedrate
I live in a desert enviroment so i dont need that lol
You got a lap warmer?
How many folders full of screenshots is too many?
Yes
Need 1 more
Lab on the top, and laptop on the desk ?
Top lap lap top pot pal
Bro got that 16k monitor π
Yesterday I freed up 10GB of space on my laptop that were screenshots that were automatically saved to my OneDrive gallery.
I still need to free up space on my laptop
All those folders are only 975mb.
With GIFs.
Hii
Jifs?
I still have screenshot from my epic note 2
Hello π
I'm 2 days late for the advent of cyber, is it ok to continue?
Of course!

Do you like paradise lost?
I am on my way home from a work dinner
spending an hour configuring shit without even doing the ctf >>>>>
And I am allowed to sleep on night shifts, it's only on call shifts, not eyes on screen
I'm in a squad full of brits..... And I forgot to pack them Tea and Crumpets
You work at an SOC?
check them for knives
they seem keen on those nowadays
Yes
uh oh
Whats that like?
That's a title for someone working in a soc
Pretty chill, I both analyse/monitor and engineer
Both
stoppp that is awesome
how do you do threat intel?
like surely you need to gather logs from malicious actors
or files
Ever heard of Google?
call intel and start talking π π
Hello community, I would like to know if with only tryh hack me and the premium subscription (and with obviously dertermination) I could become an expert in cybersecurity and hacking?
π
I mean yeah but what if the threat is new
like what happens then
More than that
if nobody reports on it then how does the first report get written?
mmh ?
probably certifications
You'll get a good background, but not an expert
Can I do something concrete with it or is it really theory?
Via analysis of lots
Possibly get a job
okay thanks !
It's practical skills
Now my hairs done I look like a poisonous dart frog
orange ?
blue with black dots??
Sounds like a plan for the future
Nah itβs not but my sister recently went orange
too much carrot? π

Good day
Hi, new to discord and have a bit of a problem with my macbook, i think i have RAT software on it and my iphone. Anyone got any advice on how to find out who is behind it and how to stop it? is this the right place to be asking this?
Use an anti-virus.
I suggest Malware-Bytes.
How do you have a rat on it
What did you download
ive done a scan and comes up clean
ππ
someone had access to my machine without my authority
Oh I see
both laptop and iphone
Yeah it happened to me with my pc
now i suddenly somone knows an awful lot about me
I just factory wiped out the mem of my pc
And I set up good anti virus machines
Better than nothing
Iphones should be generally secure but any jailbreaks are entry points, you can use activity monitor on mac for network bandwith or any unusual processes
the problem with good RAT software is it sits in the bios
*Bad
Anyone have experience with pop3, smtp?
dubzo - emails? Use 'em every day
Aka rootkit
yep more specifically identifying type from mail service domain
@fair lava there are cases where infection is possible without jailbreak instances are available on github
Good luck removing that shii
Why do ya need that?
You uh, got a source for that?
to bruteforce it
What for?
What are you doing?
some idiot hacked my Insta and they changed it to this email
Insta support is useless
Ah, so you're wanting to do something illegal, we will not be helping you. π
And how is that illegal...
You're attacking something you don't own?
Zero day vulnerabilities used to execute codes remotely in safari i'd say
Or have permission to?
Someone hacked into my Instagram using a throwaway email?
Who'd burn that on a random?
...
Exactly, it's Instagrams property.
Not yours.
I'm not sure this would hold up in court...

as "illegal"
Wow, how wrong you are
...Wat.
you think you know the law which is kinda funny
Hey now, let's tone it down a bit.
Haha, prox - It's cool, Scrubz has this π
Please don't get involved.
No it isn't, you have permission to use it.
Most != 99%
You gave a number like you knew what you were talking about Β―_(γ)_/Β―
Contact Instagram support
It's not, it's very illegal.
They're useless
Please stay out of it.
...Instagram I'd imagine, if you do something.
π
Please see our comunity guidelines for passing misinformation. π
So Instagram is going to take legal action for me cracking a throwaway email to get my account back
Seems likely lil buddy
You have your email on it?
:mute: idleguy32#0 has been muted.
They changed it
Regardless, this is illegal, I'm not making it up, please stop asking for help in this server. π
Aka don't want to help you..
It is when 99% isn't the correct number.
Thanks
Did you read our rules when you joined?
Not illegal but yeah
Whatever you say little bro
It's illegal.
Show me your source, that states it's legal.
Brrrr itβs cold
If they took your account away, it's probably your fault, either you didn't set a strong password, you made an insecure transaction, or in the last case, you're lying and trying to harm someone else.Why do you keep arguing about it?
You are trying to play a game of perception on the other side, but no one is a child in front of you and you are not smarter than the people in front of you, if you were, you would not ask this question.
Yes I do not know how to crack emails
You're quite right
Stealth, Get a duvet and Burrito up!
Scrubz is behaving like a child though

Do you know what Discord does to servers who discuss illegal and black hat topics, attacks etc?
Yeah well fair enough but what I am doing is not illegal
Gave +1 Rep to @sick lance (current: #1 - 3054)
...It is.
SMTP handles forwarding and relaying emails between servers and POP3 just keeps them synchronized and retrieves emails to a local device, although imap keeps them stored on a server and changes sync across devices so it's better in my opinion
Dude, just go learn, research instead of asking questions, no one can help you and make your life miserable or make yourself a partner in crime or deal with you on this issue, this is not ego or self-promotion, no one helps anyone unless it is for their own benefit. This is not the point here, I'm just helping you understand some things, but this is a big community and everyone is trying to do their job and we expect the same behavior and decency from you.
Please stay out of it. π
Yeah shush lil bro
π
Sorry
Alright this has gone on for long enough. This discussion can stop π
If anyone has complaints about moderation, my DMs are open.

We're not hackers for hire.
If you are locked out of an account, the proper course of action is to reach out to the service provider for account recovery options.
Yeah I've done that already
Why not? π€
Doesn't work
Shifting topics, how's everyone's day been?
Was driving so much today, that even then I sat down after, it still felt like I was moving π Was trippy
I don't have a car yet, so I usually walk to places such as my college campus or just stay at home.
Wish I did, cuz now it's getting colder here
You are liklier healthier than me in that case π
I mean, that is true.
This is what itβs like to have vertigo
I cycle
I have a bike, the thing is, I keep forgetting to fill the bike tires, plus I don't want it to get possibly get stolen.
Always check your tire pressure. And get a decent lock
Hire Hex to protect the bike
I thoroughly recommend Hiplok
I have two Hiploks to secure my bike
Never had it stolen
Will Hex scare the people away?
I'll check them out.
Even...Python?
laughing_audience.mp3
hope everyone is doing well
All good here Smile. you had a go at Advent of Cyber?
metal_pipe_falling.mp3
not really unfortunately because i don't have much time now
thats a shame. you got a whole month though π
thank you, i will check it out soon π
Yeah, you gave me an idea.
To.. drop a metal pipe?
I do that daily
Eyyy DJ Bella!
ππ
Now I can hear falling metal pipes whenever I close, open, type or backspace any characters I am typing on my keyboard.
Pretty calming sound
Surprisingly, it is quite calming.
you made my brain process that
was pretty loud
gifs you can hear
I promised work I would look into something tonight, but now it's 2300 hours and I haven't even gotten home
Hex - I keep having a recurring daydream. Kinda want to buy a farm. reckon thats a symptom of age?
Same except not a farm but a off the grid living place
Yeah, thats where it inevtibly goes
am 20 + something , and got same dream
peace nature ... etc
I feel like the skills I practise in my spare time - Woodworking, maintainance and stuff are kind leading to that
yep you are on that path xd
On the other hand... I have so much online - Like youtubing things I want to learn, and keeping up with you crazy lot, y'know
Torn between 2 lifestyles π
" and keeping up with you crazy lot " ididnt get this part π€
I'm attempting to learn french
Oh, You guys on here π
aaah i see xd
worst decision u ever made
It's a very beautiful language
Why?
how many language u speak , other than english
well let me tell u learning french will be the worst journey out of all of them
English is not my main tongue
it has so many complications
Whaaat? french is lovely!
It sounds awesome and i can do the thing
unfortunately i cannot agree with that esqy
2
One is my main language and the other one is german
if u are veeery motivated to learn it go for it , i just gave u my geniune opinion
@devout palm a slavic language might be more worth it.. when you know one, you can get along in all of the eastern countries
Main language is obviously L337
I have been speaking and studying French since i was a kid
Yeah trying to learn russian too
That one can be a challenge.
(For threat intel :p)
Blyat
cuz sadly thats the studyinng language in my country
i tried welsh and arabic .. i like mental torture ^^
I've heard that Hungarian is pretty hard to learn
Russian is cool
Have you tried Japanese? (kanji)
A little on Duolingo
suka blyat nahuy
Careful... The mods don't like that
shiiit i thought i was sneaky with it π¬
i learned russian on CS1
My teammates were roasting me
CS2 is broken
Because i was at A when the bomb was placed at B
Well, i meant Counter strike generally
I played fastcup too
HELLO GUYSSSS
Oh nice me too.
Learning Russian, Ukrainian (where my family is from), Danish (wanna move there) and Spanish.
HELLO YOUUUU
nice I love languages. I speak a few languages
I am amazed that THM doesn't have dark mode yet! 
@hasty sand or @shell nova may I please DM you for a mod matter?
Fruity - Jabba or Scrubz might be a better bet

I can give hints on who to DM!
use darkreader
Dark reader is better
Go for it:)
No Worries Fruity. I lived in Wellington for a cople of months while I was travlling. Loved it
It works not only on Tryhackme but other websites
Niiice, we are pretty friednly down ehre
it's not. I am using Firefox on mac and when I use darkreader, everything is dark except the reading section lol
The ONE thing i wasnt a fan of... those pineapple flavoured candies that y'all love so much π
You don't like Pineapple LUMPS?! They are best enjoyed directly out of the freezer
I love beef Wellington π
and I just don't like using third party plugins anyway...
See? This is what I mean! For real though, I do miss wellington a lot.
Worked in the vinyards in Blenheim too. tiring work but gorgeous landscape
@glass nest I've been in a lot I mean a lot of places around the world, but AU, and NZ are still on my bucket list π
Surprises me that you've not been to NZ - especially for the wine.
It's coming this month
You may
The guy who was running the team I was on was part Maori, and loved the country. His main complaint was that the Lamb was amazing, but most of the good stuff was exported
it takes too long to get there π so I always pushed it for some place closer, but I'm running out of new places so it might be time to go there π
Yah. Is it easy to get to from where you are? From here we gotta stop off in Thailand or Hong Kong on the way (Zero complaints about that though)
Yes, I checked once, from Israel is, Turkey, Hong Kong and a I don't remember where more but it was like +30 hours trip π
Although, I did find that in Hong Kong, they are really into their Whiskey. That surprised me
It's worth it though man. Xmas day on the beach π
I've been to Hong Kong
Love that place so much
Last time I was there, I was jetlagged AF. it was 2am, I was wide awake. but it's ok, there was an open Dimsum place on the same block as the hotel!
It never truly sleeps
I've DM'd Jabba about it already thanks though!
Gave +1 Rep to @shell nova (current: #13 - 612)
Japan and Taiwan are coming with some pretty good stuff whisky wise
Both of those are my bucket list
How was it?
not for the whiskey though!
I've tasted nice stuff
I love it π
I've been there many times π
I am from Greece. I do want to go there tho :)
Ahh. was thrown off by the name π
where in Greece? I love Greece, great food and people are so friendly
A bit all over the place actually. Uni has me travelling between 4 cities almost on a weekly basis
Q3 got my head banginggg
Greece? mmmm Pitta Gyros street food..mmmm
yeah the food is great! most of my money goes to takeout
You and me both, Leo π
Hey just want to say the community feels really alive with the advent and side quests. Really enjoyed collaborating with others the past couple of days. Respect to the THM team! π«‘
Yeah I love that show
Saints Row reference?
yeah they are amazing. The challenges be releasing those happy hormones :P
I've been to Athens, Delphi, Lesbos, Crete, Rhodes, Thessalonik, Santorini, Manis, Mykonos, and many others π
Ohh that's nice. Do you live near Greece or something?
hello guys
or are you FROM greece?
any ctf ?
Hello!
Israel, so I'm close π
you mean for like events? I am not aware of any
Dorlok - CTFtime is a good place to find one
Ohh that's nice. Never been to Israel but some of my friends have
working routine is killing me
They really liked it
yeah like doing a thing volonteerly feels better then tasks to do every day
yeah ofcourse
I really like the AOC format. It's really fun and rewarding while providing a sort enough deadline to keep you hooked
thats cool
Honestly it's the first time I actively expected a new lesson/challenge to drop
Leo - you know that previous years AoCs are still on the site, right? No prizes, but still, great learning
Fr? I will def check them out
Yeah, just search for Advent in the search box. Can scratch that itch between tasks π
well some people reported me o police cause they saw me at timhortons doing some training.... i was just enjoying my coffee
oooh, timbits π
I also do have to study for the finals so I don't think it's a good idea just yet
after they end I will 100% go for it
yup best place to stay and focuse sometimes better then the room
yeah, Rooms can wait, Leo - they aint going anywhere. Get shcoolwork done
yep, currently speed-running digital design
Should have prequestis for advent of cyber?
No, it's very beginner friendly
Gaza - Nah mate. Just jump right in
I can start with it
Yes! You should 1000% do it it's amazing
It is like a game
from the story to the small easter eggs
Yes
gaza ....
If you are lucky, Elf McSkidy pops into chat
exept the side quest ahaha
Dorlok, It's what I call @granite narwhal
ah i see cause war there is just like horrible seeing people die for political problems
I actually solved one accidentally and started talking about it in some github issue. Then THM deleted the issue and now I am not sure if I got disqualified
I thought it was an unrelated easter egg π
Oh yeah, we don't really care about politics here. Everyone on here is equal
you don't get disqualified from AoC π
really not the place to talk about those
So it learning me what is blue team right?
I might be
We will discoverπ .
Naaaaaah
And let us see
AoC you can be disqualified from the prizes pool , but you still can do the room and challenges
Huh. Didn't know that
Why
same lol
well i mean it's in the rules maybe i read it wrong
Nah I would win !!
We are all human π π
yeah I figured. I am just here for the challenges tho and the badges are just a nice touch
And certfication
yeah same i am here for the fun part π
yes, well i can speak arabic perfectly (Im not arab) i speak 5 languages
Alright
nice man , you still human for me
you are a great human
Yeah I just have no indication that I got disqualified. I did mention that I thought it was an easter egg and I only gave hints so maybe they let it slide? Idk
Well question about Aoc I can learn it with myself is easy?
yes thanks guys learning languages is kinda a hobby for me to learn cultures
Been struggling a bit with Chinese
but I think I am getting there
Chinese is high level for me as arabic so learning arabic was enough for now maybe later lol
Its very hard to learn Chinese not as other languages as based Latin languages
i just installed a vm with a fresh kali on it ^^ , ran upgrade && update . and i wait ... 37% now ,
Thats cool
it's not the latin based alphabet that makes other languages easy imo
give your VM some ressorces and you will have good results
yes! another log analysis box
i did gave it 4 gb ram 2 CPU units
anyway I have to go to sleep gn everyone
8 gb ram , and 4 CPU units , to start quikly , than i can lower it after
good night
yes
no shot i got rick rolled by the introduction to advent of cyber
Hello ladies and gents,
at which time does the advent of cyber launch each day?
4pm GMT
it's very much needed for the hard ctf challenges , the attackbox is good , but you can't save progress on it
I cannot seem to connect to the ovpn
thanks

u need to check and read your terminal errors
u using phone ?
well for learning i recommend using pc better you can control better (in my opinion)
Its connected
phone is great if you travel , just reading the contents , but if you run machines, and other stuff , a Wireless connection will tend to fail
But when I put machine ip it doesn't works
and you will none stop - Connected - Disconnected , and high ping
well even for travel a decent laptop will do a good job
I input 10.10.10.10 it works and tell my IP address
depend on the transport but yeah a small laptop is great
But when I put ip address it doesn't works
what ?
It show my IP address on 10.10.10.10 and says m connected
But I when I put the IP it doesn't say anything

what ip you putting in the commande ? the machine to attack?
I can't even connect to the vm
well ... i can't help much i don't know well android π
have you tried to restart it ?
Hey guys,
Please I need some help a while now I notice I can't access the premium option of THM
I click on premium and it keeps loading forever
So if I use to connect to Ovpn do I still have the Limite of 1hr
I wrote dem on IG but no response over a month now
Good evening guys - AOC day 3 - is the "frostypines.thm" link taking aaaagggggessss to load for anyone else?

Couldn't finish today as it was so slow I couldn't do anything
It's ridiculous
it's unfortunate it's happening but I'm guessing they're under a lot of load

Thanks, I really appreciate

Need some advice here, I have been a big fan of Kali since the days when it was BackTrack, but have also used Parrot recently (due to a company policy). My wife loves Parrot due to the look it has and preinstalled apps, I always preferred Kali because it's what I am used to. Which distro would you guys advise for SOC use and why?
Hello there
Parrot is for people that appreciate aesthetic appeal and pre-installed applications, that supports security tasks but leans more towards comprehensive environment, while kali is for penetration testing and ethical hacking, you can combine both distributions if you'd like to
For offensive security kali, for defensive security parrot
Blocked with DPI obviously, only for specific traffic destined for THM network will be routed through vpn, as known as split tunneling, VPNs can obfuscate traffic patterns so it's harder for some DPI system to identify it and block it, if someone wants to evade it they will utilize tunneling over common ports
how much can you actually learn on THM if youre a complete beginner without paying for premium
80% content is available free, which means 390+ free rooms covering various topics, so you can learn something
if someone wants to evade it they will utilize tunneling over common ports
No not at all tunneling over common ports 443, 80, 8080 and 22 and all others was working to circumvent censorship in the past now it doesn't work anymore. That's why i am confused what kind of circumvention technique does THM use?
hi here i hope everyone is doing fine
Do you realize that traffic between your device and THM servers is encrypted in order to prevent data being transmitted, even though DPI can detect VPN it can't analyze encrypted traffic, it has specific range of IPs for its machines and only packets for these IPs can be sent through VPN
In Egypt it works in restrictive environments by using split tunneling, so it can limit traffic
Should I use parrot or Kali for Tryhackme (or both) beginner here
Or just stick to windows
I'm gonna use vm for the Linux os
So obvious that traffic between my device and THM servers is encrypted but it should still be blocked knowing the fact that it's encrypted
Could someone help me with wireshark?
How split tunneling to tunnel only certain traffic can bypass the firewall?
Have you heard for other circumvention techniques?
I can't explain you that if you can't get the basic stuff, standard ports can be blocked commonly, which doesn't mean that VPN can't use alternative protocols that aren't so heavily monitored
There are techniques that can mask VPN traffic as unencrypted HTTP traffic
and time to go sleep agains..... nighty nights everyone let your beep boops to sleep sloops be good
Youβre really trying to play it off like I donβt get the basics huh? I know what youβre saying but just because it's encrypted doesn't mean it won't get blocked. Iβm asking how split tunneling specifically works in bypassing firewalls and youβre dodging the actual question. Yes there are other circumvention techniques but Iβm not asking about those right now Iβm asking how this one works.
I'm not playing it off, I don't care about you, traffic meant for THM is routed through VPN while general web browsing goes through ISP and since only certain traffic is encrypted and routed, rest of the unencrypted traffic can bypass the firewall so it can reduce overall load on the VPN
Firewalls will only encrypt specific connections, and split tunneling can reduce chances of it getting triggered
Hello, should I use Linux parrot OS(In virtualbox) to progress in Tryhackme(beginner here)
personnely i used a the kali-everythings iso image , so i get already a great set of the app needed π
M very good at story telling , I wish I can do something, it's just my opinion I would make a story and make the interactions not cyber related but more of commonsense and engaging and people would progress not knowing it's real cyber security and in the end when they look at real life system they kmow what to do
Like usage of fantasy I would not directly say IP address but rather, hearts to connect and give the special Id as like IP address
Elven souls, or all soul elders connect hearts to others to communicate on long journey, where elven souls is server irl, give sort of lore to it, I hear ppl r crazy abt lores
All for interesting ideas, but I feel this would add in a layer of abstraction that is not necessary and creates confusion for the people trying to learn the topic. Idk
I mean like for a seperate game, if I were making, tryhackme is exactly a place for learning directly I understand what thm is doing is also great
Hi
Is this for a THM room? If so, #room-help is the best place to receive assistance
Quick question, is this an AI output?
gm
looks like a book, so I would say yes π
kali / parrot both work
it's preference
try both and see which you like most it's a matter of taste
translation lol
Sorry I misread your msg, I thought it was the old kali/parrot thing. Yes you should spin a vm and connected to thm through vpn so you can use it for the rooms

can someone please tell me if we join advent of cyber now?
can we do day 1 and 2 as well or we have to start from day 3 ?
Thank you
If u can do all then do it
thank you
Anyone else confused why the request path isnβt being accepted as the answer for the first day 3 question? Is it a bug? Iβve made sure Iβve read the entire section more than once to lead me to answer that first question
For the AOC 2024

quick question for loonix users : distro of choice for "security work" ?? any specific one or just pick one and add tools on the go ??
Is there any good VM's I can use for myself to mess around with?
Kali or Parrot π
nice parrot ftw
You're looking for hypervisor or what π ?
Personally I use VBox as hypervisor π
isn't it heavy and locked down compared to qemu ??
not as of right now since I'm overall still new to everything
A single VM is probably the best i can handle as of rn π
Vbox should be your friend it's fairly friendly
Yeah but what do you mean by VM ? π You're looking for some VM image or hypervisor to run VM on it π ?
It's pretty lightweight π
uhhhh
I'm not too sure myself π€£
Honestly never heard of hypervisor or VM image
i will not lie
hypervisor is what you use to run the virtual machine
VM image is a system iso file (the system in itself)
I've heard of Kali from the Google Cybersecurity coursea
Any books recommendations to get a better understanding of computers and programming at the theorical level?
ohhhhhhhhhhhh
i'm probably looking at a hypervisor then
I use VBox π
