[pliant onyx]

Yeah, I had problems with the wordlist. But after that, it's all logical

I got to learn a lot from this as well

[cloud quiver]

I think it took me 4h to complete it , maybe even more 😄

[rapid merlin]

Not me pronouncing moniker link - monkey-er link 👌🏻

Thinking that was totally correct until I heard Tyler say it

Because I’m blind af and need my glasses

Learning what 🙂 ?

[clear flame]

about cybersecurity

[cloud quiver]

I started in 2020 🙂

[clear flame]

how many first bloods you got?

[rough widget]

In btw how you managed the laziness?

[half girder]

so for a longer weekend huh? xD

[cloud quiver]

Not many , maybe 3-4 and they were only partial ( only user first for example , or some in forensics , etc. )

[half girder]

forensic rooms arent for me, not a fan of the blue team stuff

[cloud quiver]

Definitely no , majority of them are binary/BOF , i suck there 🤣

@polar spoke I think I might play with some RDF projects, I have a loop antenna. Might try to RDF a longwave station or something based on the nulls

[dark frost]

If you point it to international space station you can send them a message

[naive violet]

Not with that setup

But I am licensed and able to talk to the ISS

[dark frost]

No way 😂

[naive violet]

You can be too, it's remarkably cheap and easy in most countries

You just need an amateur radio license

So I made a new game for myself 😅 it hurts my head. Obviously pretty used to typing normal words on a keyboard but not commands so I went onto 10fastfingers. Com and added a custom typing test. I added cyber commands 😆 I’m struggling as someone who can usually type at the speed of light 😂

[sturdy pike]

Did the best track record of the month in Go Karting, it was fun drifting

[rapid merlin]

Send help my wrist hurts

Try hack me should add a game like that to their website

Would be really fun

[sturdy pike]

I understand your pain, made a Library Management System for my school library once, years ago, couldn't touch 100+ for days

[rapid merlin]

What’s worse is I used to have nice clicky mechanical keyboards and I can’t stand the flat ones but my keyboard is flat

🙄

The one I’m currently using and it’s shorter

[pliant onyx]

This was such a long room

Quite tiring

[cloud quiver]

Congrats , great job 🚀

Thank you!!

It was pain for me yesterday + flask_unsign was messing around on my machine 😄

[sturdy pike]

Congrats! I just broke my 11 day streak as I was out and about

[cloud quiver]

Great job , keep that streak growing 🙂

[sturdy pike]

This is so me lol, flat keyboards are flat out boring for me (pun intended), I use red keys as I've used blue ones and they're so loud it can wake up my neighbours

[sturdy pike]

How short is it? I use 60% as I'm traveling most of the times

[pliant onyx]

I had to remake the wordlist twice before it found a valid key
The most problem I had was with the passwords for the users we found

For some reason, none of my passwords were working

[sturdy pike]

Thank you! I've taken a personal challenge of managing my time and doing work on the designated time so it's helping

[twin ridge]

Gave +1 Rep to @cloud quiver (current: #2 - 2763)

[elder peak]

Yeah blue switches are loud and annoying, lol

[rapid merlin]

I’m typing on a small Chromebook 🥴

[knotty chasm]

gm y'all

[pliant onyx]

Hell yeah! Well done!

[cloud quiver]

Yeah , i also had trouble until i generated valid wordlist 😄

[elder peak]

Morning

[sturdy pike]

I have to go stealth mode at night for studies and even reds can be heard across the hall, but blue were like mini cannons lol

[pliant onyx]

Linpeas blew up with a couple of suggestions, so I was down that rabbit hole as well for some time
I'm sure a more experienced hacker would be able to exploit the files it showed, but I just went the easier route of ||polluting the /var/www/||

[sturdy pike]

Atleast you're not using a virtually flat keyboard, even my laptop has that and I'm forced to type on it and make so many typos that even grammarly gets annoyed at times

[sturdy pike]

Thank you!

[rapid merlin]

Reminds me of a skit I saw on YouTube about typos 😅

[elder peak]

Haha, mini cannons

[sturdy pike]

lmao, can imagine, I'm an avid book reader so whenever I want to search for a meaning and I don't have time, I just type out the word and it gives out the meaning to me and possibly correct the typos

[sturdy pike]

yep hehe

[cloud quiver]

Also once you grasp the basics , you may want to try this room 🙂 . It will teach you home to use python but focusing on making some tools that can be useful for cysec purposes 🙂

man... just 30 points....

[neat belfry]

yea i didnt find this funny at all

[gleaming grove]

but its better than nothing

[pliant onyx]

You’re 30 points closer
Congrats

[sick lance]

Some rooms offer bonus points.

[gleaming grove]

bonus points?

[sick lance]

Yeah, there rooms that offer x points on top of the answer.

Year of the fox is one.

I think @naive violet may have one or two

[naive violet]

Yeah they stopped doing those for most content

[gleaming grove]

oh yeah + 30 on the last flag

I had never seen anything like this before

[sick lance]

Yeah, new rooms won't have it.

[amber brook]

Hello guys, I'm starting cyber security now any advice ?

[near sapphire]

how much points does last year's aoc give?

[shut hawk]

quite a fair amount

[pliant onyx]

2.79 million

Wait I just checked

It's 30

[rapid merlin]

guys! how to learn cyber security??

[sick lance]

The side quests give 510.

[sick lance]

It won't go 30 only.

[rapid merlin]

Im titan on thm rn but i dont think i learned the all cyber security terms

[sick lance]

This field is massive.

You won't learn everything,. especially if you don't take notes.

[shut hawk]

nobody knows all the cyber security terms, it's a constantly growing field

[pliant onyx]

Have people given out the side quests tutorials yet

Walkthroughs rather

[near sapphire]

this year?

[sick lance]

Yeah.

[near sapphire]

a lot

[sick lance]

A few members of team awesome done writeups

Jaxafed probably too

[pliant onyx]

That's awesome

I have completed aoc 24 83%, I shall finish it all today

Then from tomorrow I may start doing the sidequests

[rapid merlin]

I have been interested in cybersecurity since I was 11 years old. When Tryhackme first opened in 2018, my interest increased a lot, but I am not as interested anymore. I started to fall behind in the field due to my lack of interest. That's why I stayed at 400 ctf

[gleaming grove]

DAMN

thats my call!

[pliant onyx]

Just do em again!

[near sapphire]

the main gives 600+ i think

[sick lance]

Apc2024 gives out 696.

Aoc2024*

[rapid merlin]

Btw is there a free way to learn cyber security again?

I dont have thm premium rn

and i want to start again

[sick lance]

Just by using free resources.

60% of THM is free

[near sapphire]

idk why but the aoc 2023 page likes to freeze on my device

[rapid merlin]

btw im from turkiye and 14 dollar is so expensive for us... please tell thm owners we need a casual pricing...

yes i know but my school is not using .edu email

im highschool ( lise) student

i have k12 is that works

[sick lance]

You can contact support and get manually set

[sturdy pike]

Sometimes it feels so pointless to make notes but then I see people going back to their notes for references in their jobs so then I think to myself, why not?

[rapid merlin]

THXX

[sick lance]

Why do you feel like it's pointless to take notes?

[near sapphire]

my guess is that its because you could always look it up

[sturdy pike]

If I "write" it, I understand it well, and memorize it really good as well with the practicals provided, typing doesn't have the same effect and yes, as Karev says, you could always look it up

[sick lance]

There was an exam last year at uni, it was open book, so you were allowed notes.

Somebody failed because their notes consisted of where to find answers.

[shut hawk]

My mum just sent me this and asked if I knew them all heh

[sick lance]

You have a higher chance of remembering something if you type it.

If you don't have locally stored notes, what happens if you're doing something with no public network?

[near sapphire]

My exams are mostly open books so I got to the habit of writing down notes, the first few times I wrote it like t - 2h of the exams lol

[sturdy pike]

See? That's the thing, there's no other option, saving time and space with creating a second brain is what I like, for me, typing has less chances to properly memorize than writing but that's the only option I have which is why I sometimes feel it's pointless as I understand all the theory and practicals.

[sick lance]

The advantage to notes is so you never had to solve the same problem twice.

Doesn't have to be typed, handwritten notes work too.

[near sapphire]

waitt is this right? how is n both a public and private key

[sand trench]

ctrl + shift + t

most important shortcut for browser use ever

it reopens your closed tabs in the order you closed them

[near sapphire]

how far back does it go actually

[sand trench]

depends on browser settings but generaly around 10-15 in firefox

[cloud quiver]

Now is used to calculate them

[sick lance]

There should be a lock tabs.

[red surge]

I agree for someone whos memory is a swiss cheese this is what I need

[sturdy pike]

Writing takes time, it'd be at the cost of 1 room per day as I usually do two rooms everyday.
I leave writing to mathematics and other things, and as all my notes are in cursive, there are some terms I'd rather not leave it to my handwriting lol.

[pliant onyx]

DFIR can be a lot of fun.

[sick lance]

Typing takes less time than you think.

Especially if you're a quick typer.

You can use websites likes Monkeytype to help improve typing.

[sturdy pike]

Ah sorry, writing is what I meant, not typing

[red surge]

Yes I progressed only 4k after starting to take notes but now I can do things much faster slowly getting to a level of progress before note taking started

[sick lance]

Yeah, I agree with that, especially if you write fast.

My handwriting is very messy at the best of times, I don't take pride in hand writing, that includes cursive.

[sturdy pike]

No no, it's alright lol, I cruise around 90-120wpm at an average (when my hands aren't cold like they are right now)

[red surge]

Wait you are wrieting in a notebook ?

[sturdy pike]

So you write it in?

[red surge]

Why not use PC ?

[sick lance]

I had a computer in school for exams because my handwriting was so bad.

[rapid merlin]

Hello guys!

[finite spire]

That's flexing in a whole different level😆

[sick lance]

Hello, again.

[sick lance]

It's really not.

Lol.

[red surge]

Its not when someone askes you what is that word and you can't answer them haha

my life 😄

[sturdy pike]

I write fast enough I guess, unless writing 20 pages an hour is slow, I can create the aesthetic to make the notes interesting enough, the writing would be like the one in holter monitors lol

[sand trench]

yeah that sounds "useful" and there are extensions/addons that handle it but not directly built into the browser

[finite spire]

Can relate, my writing is just as bad

All the teachers I know have asked me yo improve my handwriting

[sturdy pike]

Also, my writing is longer so I can fill up notebooks or registers just as fast

[sick lance]

I couldn't.

I'm not dyslexic or anything, I just can't write.

[shut hawk]

Haha I feel you on that

I relate it to programming something and then being asked to explain how it works a day later 🤣

[sturdy pike]

So you use obsidian too?

[sick lance]

I'm moving the notes I have on Obisidian to trillium.

[sturdy pike]

Is trillium better?

[sand trench]

shadow writes equally well with both their hands

[shut hawk]

"better" is subjective, it depends on who you ask

[sturdy pike]

As I'm ambidextrous, my teachers always asked me if I was getting my notes written from someone else?

[sick lance]

Not sure.

I used to use a vm for Obsidian, but I'm going to move my notes to my host, and I don't fancy setting up a white list for my Windows exploitation notes.

As they will be blocked.

[sturdy pike]

If we're talking objectively, I'd like to know if there are more or efficient features?

[sturdy pike]

I feel like shifting my workstation to a VM and have windows for playing games but then I've heard the VMs aren't secure, should I shift it?

[sick lance]

VM breakouts are rare, and nobody is going to burn a 0day on you or I.

Vm should be safe enough.

It's just preference.

[shut hawk]

It's hard to say, everyone's note taking preference is different. You really need to experiment with both

I will point out that trilium is completely open-source, while obsidian exposes some parts for plugins, so you do get more control over a trilium instance and can self-host.

[sick lance]

Need TriuliumNext though.

[shut hawk]

Obsidian stores notes 1:1 in markdown, so it's much easier to migrate and use other software to view it

While trilium uses some special sqlite database

[sturdy pike]

Alright, I'll shift to it because I feel lazy starting up a vm but after that, it's all good, I want have to lean onto linux to use it everyday and make it a habit or it isn't good enough as there are distractions.

[vale raptor]

Personally, I use Evernote and Notion for note taking

[sick lance]

Notion is good, unless you no longer have a connection.

[near sapphire]

shadow do you refer in third person as well irl?

[near sapphire]

dont notion have an app?

[shut hawk]

full offline mode when 🙏

[shut hawk]

yeah, it's electron iirc, it has partial offline support but not full

[sturdy pike]

I feel writing is more suited for me and then I also like the graph view once you've made enough notes to make a difference plus it saves space for notebooks where one can be lost easily, the other? not so easily

[sick lance]

Yeah, but it has it's flaws.

[sturdy pike]

Same!

[sick lance]

Would be annoying if you're using a different pc/laptop and can't access your notes due to no connection.

[shut hawk]

Go for it, do whatever is the best for you

[sturdy pike]

I'll stay on Obsidian, don't want another complexity, thanks for the info!

[twin ridge]

Gave +1 Rep to @shut hawk (current: #14 - 606)

[knotty chasm]

obsidian is great

[near sapphire]

blobfingergun emote is cute

[sick lance]

When I get my server up and running I plan to host my notes on my server.

[rapid merlin]

It is

[sick lance]

By the time I have done, I'll be finished uni.

[knotty chasm]

what if i hack your server and steal your notes?

[sturdy pike]

it's just the chill guy facing the other side with his hands out

[sick lance]

Good luck. 🙂

[near sapphire]

make a bug bounty program for it

[sturdy pike]

I'll be finishing uni in three months, I have to do a lot in that time

[rapid merlin]

I’m so tired for no reason, spent the day bed rotting

[sick lance]

11 weeks.

Not that I'm counting.

[sturdy pike]

Give me access to your server, I'd like to see and hopefully contribute to the notes

[sick lance]

...No 😄

I don't uh, wan't you downloading my malware

[sturdy pike]

Slowly building up the complexity, vanilla!

[near sapphire]

imma release it and put you as the source

gotta give credits

[sturdy pike]

I won't

is my note taking structure good enough?

[near sapphire]

i've seen worst structure (mine).

[sick lance]

You can google, some people have published their obsidian notes.

[rapid merlin]

@near sapphire I watched that video you tagged shadow in earlier

[sick lance]

Trilium doesn't look too different.

[near sapphire]

I actually havent watched it lol

lemme do that

but first finish this one room first

[sick lance]

That was on the features I liked about Triluim.

[sturdy pike]

I read it's docs, it's not too different other than being more efficient

[cedar swan]

Hey scrubbalicious

[sick lance]

Mav.

[cedar swan]

Why just Mav this time

[sick lance]

That's your name, isn't it?

[cedar swan]

Where are the creative nicknames

[sturdy pike]

LMAO is this an exchange between Harvey Specter and Louis Litt?

because it felt like it

[cedar swan]

Like how you replaced v’s with w’s before

[sick lance]

Yeah, I ran out of names.

[cedar swan]

Why not just steal mine

But they have the grinch on them. so I'll need to buy two as my partner will steal them.

I did a giveaway for the UK Cyber Team finalists, most of them were students which was quite handy

[rapid merlin]

Oh

[rapid merlin]

But the member list has 200k people

😂

[sick lance]

Yeah, non mods need to do it the slightly harder way.

Mods/admin (and maybe bot devs?) can do it the easy way,

[rapid merlin]

I might get some socks when I get paid

[near sapphire]

class starts tomorrow 🙂

[rapid merlin]

On what ?

[near sapphire]

uni

first lesson is oop

[rapid merlin]

Ohh

[sick lance]

Year 1?

[near sapphire]

yes

[rapid merlin]

I can’t be in a uni

[sick lance]

What's your course?

[near sapphire]

compsci

[sick lance]

Ah, good luck.

3 or 4 years?

[rapid merlin]

Computer science is too complicated for me

[near sapphire]

all undergraduate in my country is 4 years but technically I could make it 3.5

[silver sky]

Boom flat pack built

[sick lance]

Is that with an honours/distinction?

Or just BsC/E ?

[rapid merlin]

Good job

[near sapphire]

no honours just standar Bsc

[silver sky]

Thank you! I'm quite handy when I want to be

[sick lance]

I wish I done just the BsC,

Instead of stupid honours.

[naive violet]

Ah that reminds me, I have a bookshelf to assemble...

[near sapphire]

why did you decide to anyway lol

[naive violet]

I think it's a two person job just from the size of it though

[sick lance]

Better chance of a job.

[silver sky]

This was a two person job apparently

[sick lance]

However, the troubles I've had this year, is not worth the stress and headaches of this year.

[near sapphire]

but you have an offer already lined up

[rapid merlin]

I built my wardrobe myself I’m sure you can do it

[sick lance]

I do.

[sick lance]

Uh, you're forgetting something.

[rapid merlin]

Wardrobe

[sick lance]

You're the size of two people.

[silver sky]

That's true 😂

[naive violet]

It's probably heavier than that

[sick lance]

I don't know, James could be like Hugh Jackman in Wolverine and be jacked.

[silver sky]

Tbf I was eyeing up a very sexy wardrobe in IKEA

[sick lance]

Me and Ikea are not friends.

[naive violet]

Shame

[sick lance]

I went last week for lunch, only to find out when we got the resurant part that there was no hot food being served due to no hot water.

They could have had a sign outside the shop for that.

Instead I had to go McDonalds.

Which is okay, it's no KFC after all.

[rapid merlin]

This was quite heavy in comparison

[naive violet]

Low down though

[rapid merlin]

It’s got sliding doors 😌

[sick lance]

My kitten. would knock everything out there.

[rapid merlin]

In the sale

I always get the bargains

My computer chair cost 15 quid

😂

Better than any gaming chair I’ve ever purchased

[sick lance]

Got in to the W7 yet?

[rapid merlin]

W7?

[sick lance]

Windows 7.

[dark mason]

Funny internship moment

[rapid merlin]

I do love ikea

[rapid merlin]

Oh nah

I gave up on that. I’ve been really tired lately. Like to an extreme. I spent all day in bed scrolling

But I am on antibiotic so maybe that’s why

[sturdy pike]

Two options, either I do rooms first and then make notes by watching a video on the same topic or do the room first and make notes by going through it again (without the practical part).

[sick lance]

I take notes as I go along.

So I can record CLI

[sturdy pike]

Clever, thing is, I'm having so many doubts about making notes in cybersec is that till now I never had to make notes and could score 99/100 with proper steps and understanding, same with practicals, but I understand it's a broad field and there's a chance I can forget about topics.

[naive violet]

Gz, hope the internship goes well

Should be very interesting with any luck

[mellow narwhal]

An internship with Bitdefender?

welp this email certainly spooked shadow

had to translate it as it was in japanese

it is from the official firefox email address though according to their site instructions and also according to virustotal after being pasted there

[next grove]

hello everybody

[sturdy pike]

Hello Rezbit

[next grove]

Was that autocorrect at play again?

[sturdy pike]

It always is

[next grove]

Damn that mechanic

[sturdy pike]

corrects what shouldn't be, doesn't what should be

[mellow narwhal]

Does it show from where?

[tropic ice]

Hello , does anyone have a moment to explain me what i do wrong in "/overwrite.uploadvulns.thm"

[mellow narwhal]

What's the challenge?

(I haven't done it)

[tropic ice]

Upload Vulnerabilities

[mellow narwhal]

Okay, what did you do?

[sand trench]

nope but considering that shadow has not logged into that account or used it in years gives a very bleak picture

also the time when it was logged in was at a time where shadow definitely was not logging in

[mellow narwhal]

I haven't done that challenge, but I'm guessing you need to abuse a file upload point to upload a web shell and initiate a reverse connection to your machine

[tropic ice]

im trying to upload a file that supposed to overwrite but i dont get it

[mellow narwhal]

Someone might've found it in an old breach, worst case 🤷‍♂️

[sand trench]

so vent out and changed password
added 2fa
logged out all other devices
and added the entry to password manager

[sand trench]

yeah think so too

[mellow narwhal]

Php files are allowed?

Do you guys think CySA+ is a better option then ECIH ?

[sick lance]

ECIH?

[red surge]

ECIH Certification: Master Incident Handling in Cybersecurity

From EC-Council

[naive violet]

ec council

[sick lance]

Man, I wouldn't take an EC-Council exam if you paid me.

[red surge]

I have security+ work in SOC and am trying to upgrate my Skills i think CySA+ is the way then...regret paying for curses 30$ on udemy for ECIH

Did not know EC-Council rep. was this bad...

[mellow narwhal]

EC Council isnt good?

CySA+ does

Hmm then I guess book and exam questions !?

Then the trolling begins

I only answer the ones with people behind them

One time I was out with friends

We were at a restaurant

One of my friends got a call from one such sales person

it was 2023

I picked it up and we pretended the salesman had called the restaurant

I need to check fr who I was studying with on coursera 😂

Because im sure its them

[mint dirge]

ive been digging in on this pentest+ with dion videos and the thm modules and path

[red surge]

Glad I asked saved me usless hours studing for it...wasted 1 day of studying 😄

[mint dirge]

eventually ill get to my vce questions

[pliant onyx]

Is there any certs actually considered nice by people of the community?

[sick lance]

Not ECC

[red surge]

There is alwayas OSCP 😄

[rapid merlin]

Ah yeah I’m studying with EC council

He was funny that guy

[red surge]

This is what i was going for untill the management decided that is was not ok haha...oblivious

[rapid merlin]

But I stopped and went back to thm website

[pliant onyx]

[rapid merlin]

Even Chatgpt recommends them

[red surge]

Who?

[rapid merlin]

EC council

[red surge]

lol no It told me CySA+ is way better then anything at EC-Council haha

i just asked about controvesry and he told me about them 🙂

[mint dirge]

i found cysa+ very helpful

[red surge]

I am just looking for remote work which is what my current job lacks...

[rapid merlin]

Ahhhhh I see it now on Reddit

[red surge]

I think CySA+ can help me get that

[mint dirge]

remote is all i do but my work as a system admin has very minimal to do with my certs ive gotten and am working on

[red surge]

well yes they are just to land a job hehe 🙂

would it be any point in trying to pursue CISSP if you lack the years of experience needed?

[rapid merlin]

Reddit

[mellow narwhal]

Okay, for my first ever certification, I'll probably go for Pentest+ instead of CEH

[mint dirge]

my first was ISC²:CC

Found it oddly tough. Then got my ot content server and ic certs
then cysa+ which was intense but i enjoyed

[opaque flax]

Damn this is some crazy controversy from ec council

But I can only be on thm that means

No certificates for me

😅

[grizzled wing]

but knowledge you gain 🧠 +

[sick lance]

THM will bring out certificates.

[rapid merlin]

I don’t think the knowledge I gain will work on a resume

[red surge]

Are they better then EC-Council 😄

[rapid merlin]

Or should say certifications

[sick lance]

Won't be hard.

[grizzled wing]

then whenever that happens, we get to say, "we were on THM before they had certs" and people will laugh and say "yeah right" because THM certs will be the standard

[mellow narwhal]

I would love to do this

If its not too expensive

[rapid merlin]

I need certifications

[mellow narwhal]

Real

[grizzled wing]

i need many things, certs are on the list

[mellow narwhal]

HTB's certs are somewhat recognized, but crazy hard

From what I've heard, their CPTS exam is close to OSCP lol

I got one already hahah 😄

Hey folks i am a beginner, i am solving blind sqli injection lab https://portswigger.net/web-security/sql-injection/blind/lab-conditional-responses in which we have to find password for admin so i used this query to get welcome back ' AND (SELECT SUBSTRING(password,1,1) FROM users WHERE username='administrator')<'t' but i wanted to do this in one go rather manually getting so i used cluster bomb attack but its really slow in community edition.........pls help how to get the password even if i automate via my own python script................ik its tryhackme channel but it would be really helpful to guide me

[mellow narwhal]

A certification? 👀

[sick lance]

Please use their own dedicated support server.

[rapid merlin]

Htb would be the only other place I can get them

[grim siren]

i did but if anyone knows how to solve then it would be helpful

[mellow narwhal]

Let's all think up possible cert names

TCPT - TryHackMe Certified Penetration Tester

[sick lance]

I have no idea what they will be called.

This one has been kept under wraps well.

😄

[shrewd valve]

CNTPT - Certified Non-Trash Penetration Tester

[mellow narwhal]

I hope they use recursive acryonyms. It would be too lengthy for "THM" to be present in every one

Sounds like I've got a long way to go before attempting either

[rapid merlin]

Hey Zumi ☺️

[mellow narwhal]

It's not against the rules to use AI, is it? 🤣

[grim siren]

so which cert for a fresher

[rapid merlin]

What certification should I do first

[weak nest]

hi does tryhackme (or other platforms) have a type of challenge/machine where you train on exploiting a specific known vuln/cve?

[mellow narwhal]

probably CompTIA A+

[red surge]

https://tenor.com/view/santa-elf-christmas-going-crazy-over-santa-buddy-gif-14099468

[mellow narwhal]

I see

[sick lance]

@red surge I removed your picture because I can still see your name.

[weak nest]

like for e.g I wanna exploit CVE-AAAA-BBBB so I look for it and find a challenge with that specific cve tag that I can exploit

[mellow narwhal]

There might be a few

[grim siren]

does anyone know abt security jobs in india for fresher

[mellow narwhal]

But I don't think its there for every CVE

[red surge]

ooo Thank you woot...sorry was it exposed 🙂 or you mean you can remove the pen ?

[twin ridge]

Gave +1 Rep to @sick lance (current: #1 - 3336)

[opaque flax]

I’m sure there’s one for like eternal blue and one for shell shock

I dunno tho really

[weak nest]

where/how can I find them?

[mellow narwhal]

If you want to test specific CVEs, its probably best to configure your own setup with a vulnerable service version

[sick lance]

If you look on the certificate, you'll see a little THM-xxxxxxxxx code.

[mellow narwhal]

After all, there's a lot of them

[sick lance]

You can enter that at the end of the website so you can view the cert.

[rapid merlin]

I want to do investigation privately and bug bounty too if you can suggest a course for that 🙂

[red surge]

Oooo shoots thanks

[mellow narwhal]

Damn, neat hack

[mellow narwhal]

CBBH

as for forensics idk, probably CySA+ or CDSA?

[opaque flax]

I dunno tbh

[near sapphire]

will all certificate have an option to put your full name or username or is it only the path certificates

[weak nest]

hmmm ic

well thanks

[sick lance]

Nobody knows anything about the new certifications.

Except staff.

[rapid merlin]

I want to do support for small businesses in defence too ☺️

[opaque flax]

See I don’t understand the CBBH

Like

[mellow narwhal]

Lol basically just web exploitation I think

[red surge]

I am first time seeing this is this new?

[opaque flax]

What’s the point of the cert for a freelance job like that

[grim siren]

btw when people say networking should be strong for cyber secuirty expert, which networking concepts do they mean like ccna syllabus? any suggestions for making computer networking skill

[sick lance]

Yes.

[near sapphire]

i meant certificate of completion like the aoc or paths

[opaque flax]

I know what it covers but it’s kinda not useful as a cert itself

[mellow narwhal]

Idk either actually lol, maybe to prove you're good at web?

There's the CWEE for that though

[rapid merlin]

what’s that

[sick lance]

You can choose once.

Then it will be that for the rest, unless you manually change it.

[opaque flax]

People won’t ask for a bug bounty hunter cert

Unless I’m wrong

[naive violet]

All of them
Routing, switching, addressing, Cisco command line, protocols, loads of stuff

[rapid merlin]

I would never work for the police 😆

[naive violet]

Eh CBBH makes sense for web app hacking jobs imo

[mellow narwhal]

Maybe its more like a 'doesn't hurt' thing

[near sapphire]

manually change it with photoshop you mean?

[rapid merlin]

Okay thank you

[twin ridge]

Gave +1 Rep to @fervent meteor (current: #59 - 149)

[sick lance]

No, you could change your name I think.

[opaque flax]

Is HR going to look at it an be like certified bug bounty hunter?! Come on in it’s so relevant to our job posting that says nothing about big bounties!

[naive violet]

I don't think HTB certs hit the right market segments but I can see where it slots in themes wise

[weak nest]

btw on an unrelated note, I have a somewhat old ip camera I'm experimenting with, so scanned it for common iot vulns with routersploit but even though I found like 1 rce, I couldn't really exploit it for some reason, is that an issue on my end or is it common to get such false positives?

[naive violet]

You think HR typically knows what pentesting actually is?

[opaque flax]

Tbh I’m banking on CPTS becoming more recognized

[mellow narwhal]

Job offers which target HTB certs are scarce

[opaque flax]

No. That’s why they have a list of certs

[naive violet]

It'd be the same for any cert that wasn't on the list

[rapid merlin]

So when I get paid I’m going over to htb for a bit I guess

[mellow narwhal]

https://tenor.com/bo8nw.gif

[quick blaze]

don't orgs have technical recruiters when recruiting for technical/specialized roles..?

[grim siren]

btw do remote cyber sec jobs exist for fresher

[naive violet]

At some stage yeah

[opaque flax]

For professional roles?

[naive violet]

In India? No idea

[quick blaze]

no they don't

[sick lance]

Depends on the ORG.

[mellow narwhal]

Hugely depends

[grim siren]

i see

[mellow narwhal]

There are lots of companies

[sick lance]

Remote jobs don't have to be in your country.

[mellow narwhal]

Someone could just be wanting to hire a security analyst for a small site they made

[opaque flax]

Fair

[cloud quiver]

Relatively , maybe it's present for 2 weeks 🙂

[opaque flax]

I feel like the demand rn is for skilled people not necessarily entry level

[grim siren]

what if i want to remote job outside

not from india

[sick lance]

Depends on the ORG.

Look at THM, they have employees all over the world.

[naive violet]

Eh I disagree here. Peopoe don't want to do the paperwork for international, outside of blocs that make it easy like the EU

[sick lance]

I'm sure there is a minority that do.

That's your unicorn. 😄

[grim siren]

so its rare ig

[mellow narwhal]

I actually want to have a job in college which is remote.

[naive violet]

For cyber security jobs, it gets worse where government work is involved. Especially clearance

[naive violet]

Ok but let's not play the one in a billion game

[quick blaze]

still difficult to land, remote jobs don't generally hire freshers, specifically** for cybersec..

[grim siren]

i am confused as everyone saying not to do cybersec in india as jobs are less but at one side they say there will be high demand and its secure field

[opaque flax]

If you’re referring to the ads saying you’ll be 500k in 6 months

Those are just grifts

To get you to buy their courses

[grim siren]

not that

[opaque flax]

I think there is a demand for skilled cyber sec workers

[grim siren]

yea

[red surge]

This one would be interesting...Which country pays the most for cybersecurity jobs....go 🙂 ?

[quick blaze]

if you want to actually pursue cybersec, then just do it, no point in seeing if the "market" is stable or not, worst case scenario you'll still be able to land a job in some sort of specialized IT role

[quick blaze]

think germany's defo on the top there..

[grim siren]

[sick lance]

Not enough to add.

When there is more insane challenges, it will be added.

[mossy river]

I think "Hard" might have been put in instead of insane as the room difficulty on the UI

I'll report it as a bug

[sick lance]

^

It's not a bug.

[mossy river]

It is :)

[sick lance]

We were told in another channel there isn't enough insane rated challenges.

Unless somebody has changed their mind.

[near sapphire]

uhhh

[shut hawk]

it seems to be in rows of 4

insane has 8, which should be enough

[shut hawk]

You're on the search page

[rapid merlin]

“you’re in a cave” uh sir that is my bedroom

[naive violet]

I wish there was appetite for harder challenges, no one would complete them back along

[near sapphire]

oh yah mb lol

[naive violet]

I'd like to build some again

[near sapphire]

i enjoyed the challenges in aoc sq, learned a lot

[sick lance]

Hopefully there will be.

[shut hawk]

sequel to looking glass?

[naive violet]

That's loosely planned

I want to build another real-world style

[near sapphire]

i think imma try out the TryHack3M challenges

[sick lance]

Yeah, insane is combined with hard, until there is more insanse rooms.

[near sapphire]

wasnt it jabba that said that

[shut hawk]

default creds: password

[grizzled wing]

password123

[mossy river]

Update here: Insane and Info are grouped in with Hard and Easy respectively on this page

[naive violet]

If the room review process was shorter chronologically too

[sick lance]

Yeah.

[shut hawk]

I'd like to see a SANS real-world netwars like CTF, but that would quite a few machines and a lot of work

[grizzled wing]

wow NinjaJames + Jabba + Scrubz in chat

usually are in chat at different times

[sick lance]

I'm honoured to put in the same category as Jabba and James.

[pallid lotus]

Aye, that's the big turn away for me as well

[dark mason]

The grind SHALL CONTINUE

MENTAL HEALTH?

[grizzled wing]

⚙️

[dark mason]

THROW IT OUT THE WINDOW

[naive violet]

I'd love to build a network too, proper enterprise style

[grizzled wing]

🪟

[dark mason]

CTFS BABYYY

[grizzled wing]

👶

[pallid lotus]

No point in submitting any of the new ones if it's gonna take a year to release. Shame -- I've got a whole new series ready to go

[naive violet]

Like Small/Medium Business, barely anything exposed, NAT/firewall etc

[sick lance]

SUBMIT IT.

[rapid merlin]

What health 😂

[pallid lotus]

[dark mason]

THAT'S THE MINDSET

[grizzled wing]

maybe it dont hurt me ,

[opaque flax]

Guess we sending a phishing email

[red surge]

https://tenor.com/view/jabba-the-hutt-hutts-gif-27622657

[opaque flax]

(My users love clicking phishing emails)

[naive violet]

That'd be too simple

[pallid lotus]

I may or may not have invented a financial institution.
And by that I mean I own about 10 domains for said institution, and have built up a full brand for them.

[naive violet]

I have webapps I could build

[pallid lotus]

Plus created 755 employees. Number is low, but I have limits

[naive violet]

...did you tell your work? They might be worried about competition

[pallid lotus]

Oh, they know

[sand trench]

is loitering malicious usb sticks in the parkinglot also to simple???

[sick lance]

Interesting...

[opaque flax]

Real world ctf lol

[pallid lotus]

How tf are you gonna simulate that

[opaque flax]

Get a plane ticket

[naive violet]

Pure haxoring, no people

[dark mason]

No, too expensive

[grizzled wing]

Mr Robot scene of throwing USBs in parking lot

[sand trench]

oh shadows fault there as shadow did not read the entire conversation

[pallid lotus]

Yeah. Gives me a lot of scope for real world vulns.
Obviously nothing from work, but I can do realistic stuff.

[opaque flax]

Like 50

[dark mason]

-3k dollars

[grizzled wing]

bulk buy, get discounts

[shut hawk]

@pallid lotus Have you setup sock puppet accounts for them as well? Such as on LinkedIn

[dark mason]

-2.5k dollars

[grizzled wing]

ha

[sand trench]

not sure linkedin:s tos allows you to create sock puppet accounts

[sick lance]

I'd be concerned if was from work.

[grizzled wing]

linkedin wants phone numbers for each account

l1nkedin.com would be okay

[pallid lotus]

Maybe

[grizzled wing]

what if you used github blob attack?

[pallid lotus]

So?

[grizzled wing]

okay then, i thought this would be an issue

[near sapphire]

[quick blaze]

ADHD?

[eternal timber]

Yes

[cloud quiver]

Same here 😭

[eternal timber]

At least I found this hack

[lost birch]

The knowledge potential is crazy

Wait till u find podcasts bro

[eternal timber]

I listen to seminars and math lectures. Sometimes subconsciously absorb information lol

[naive violet]

Would recommend defcon talks

Those are fun

[upper minnow]

I tried listening to defcons but i just don't understand anything they are talking about

[sick lance]

TedX too

[midnight vapor]

Weird question guys. how do hacker hack into camera, i watch Perogi and other ScammerPayback started compromised into scammer network and gain access into camera and IoT?? wonder how come they did that??

[sick lance]

That's unethical/illegal, we don't discuss such with our community rules.

[midnight vapor]

need someone to explain specific, i want to learn in a ethical way

[midnight vapor]

ok sorry

[sick lance]

Hacking scam centres is illegal, also.

[midnight vapor]

i am just curious you know... i didn't mean anything bad so sorry, plz don't ban me

[sick lance]

You're not going to be banned, you asked about an illegal topic, and you dropped it 😄

You're good. 😄
