are you taking notes
Yes on Google docs
helps you remember
Not really
Time to sue
lol
here this breaks the osi model down and gives an analogy like you’re sending a letter to someone via the mail
The OSI (Open Systems Interconnection) model is a conceptual framework that standardizes the functions of a telecommunication or computing system into seven abstraction layers. These layers enable different networking devices to communicate with each other by defining a set of rules and protocols. To explain the OSI model in a more relatable man...
if they could leak the passwords implies that its stored in plain text
hey
Yeah that's better
Honestly understanding the concepts fully will require extra outside research from tryhackme
Yoo twinn
Sup bro
Sup bro
twin? ahahaha
🤞
what are we hacking 
hey veggies
Existing
Why do we have to wait to get target machine ip address when starting a new room?
hello Chag (she/her) -- is gone i see
still fixing my obsidian notes
Im glad :]
nah human error
Good morning folks.
I think before they quoted they used to give it instantly which lead to complaints because it took time for the vm to spin up
no passwords leak btw
oh i just kept getting endless friend requests so i thought it would be better to drop it
is great, i love it
Flood
Morning
i fully understand
I agree
when are you planning to tell me theres an obsidian emote
Sticker game up 👆
and having pronouns will also make you target to some shitty ppl and didnt wanna go through that again
yow @cloud quiver you there
Only one person said good morning back, I understand. 😦
i made emojis but thanks to @polar shale i get to use them
Gave +1 Rep to @polar shale (current: #206 - 37)
good night
Tell it to just add one line... fucker adds double the original amount of lines
yup
redacted
did they gift u nitro
Well it could also be a case of weak encryption and or just the use of something simple as encoding rather than encryption or other issues like hashing e.g.
yes, was very nice

Habibi/habibti are the same thing just one is male the other female
i'll stop at 3 for now
Cool
hydra is cool, glad you like
I'm doing great as always habibi
hydra the mod or hydra the tool
I want to be more healthier, more veggies needed
when i don't hack or code my stomach starts to hurt 💀
i should put an emote on my name its feeling too short now
hydra the tool, not the many other things called hydra
i forgot we could add emojis to are name
Chag the jag (as in jaguar)
quick fix is to base64 some message and >> to a file
@shell nova sudo says ur not cool 
that is different hydra
Koth? Kite on taller Height?
wassup cool internet people 👋
waitt zsh has autocorrect?
hello internet person
key of the heart
should ikeep this as my display name
its kinda hard to @ you
@blissful snow nightmare
oh true
That's only applies to people that already know your username
but its easy to forget and then no rep points
Otherwise they'll struggle
much like the user chainz who uses Japanese letters
type r'
Seventh down
not a fan of the username change

Whale be trolling
Adrián Simancas was kayaking in Bahía El Águila in the strait of Magellan when the whale engulfed him and his yellow kayak for a few seconds before letting him go. He was unharmed. Simancas's father, Dell, who was kayaking with him, recorded the incident

Just a fluke: whale ...
i saw this lol
Don't be memorable for being unpronouncable, be memorable for being fun
This is why you dont kayak in the ocean, its not designed for open waters
< kayaker
chat is for chatting with usernames not cryptic handles
hmmm any display name ideas?

a username can be anything though, including cryptic handles
zumi's zumi

why no normal string indexing in java 😦 wtf is charAt, and worst why no negative indexing
i like the []
neat
phish_fsh_shell
um actually its public static void main 🤓
ima make a website to submit usernames for me i change my user every week lol
Google/Microsoft form

then that would make it easy to find you
why?
hi
"now for this room, hack nightmares site"
Oh wow, that kinda stole your name
Hi jai
Hi nice to meet you ainsley
Hi jai
Likewise 🌸
Nightmare and Dark_monster should be friends
i am having a nightmare abt the dark monster
Whats the regex for Highlander
What is that bro
because it is unique and someone would look at how often username changes , just thinking about it
ah
I hate being from ohio
I don't wanna steal this someone had a username "{name} the os destroyer" it was pretty cool
like bro, if you talking to a girl, and she asks where ur from, and u say ohio
that's gg's
I wouldn’t know
nah lol just regex
I don't get it.
I don’t suffer from this. Issue
depends
ohio is like a dead state, in the midwest
Ohio has been booming lately
Man roasting Ohio for no reason over here.
could be worse, like nebraska
idk anything about nebraska but thats such a deporessing name for a state
Mainly because of athletes like Lebron James
im from there, i live in california, and like people tell me not to tell girls im from ohio💀 they'd clown on you
nightmare the page ripper?

like people say sht like ' who tf's from ohio' and stuff
So you're interacting with people that are like 15 and still care about the Ohio memes or what? Like, nobody that's worth dating cares where you're from.
Vain ahh people man, smfh.
it's not just 15 yr olds💀
lol yeah tf
So you’re interacting with immature people
wait how old
15, 17, 99, I don't care, bro. Nobody that should matter to you should care where you're from.
so if their 25.0000001?
nah, im not starting anything
oh Ss => Shawn clever
bro they laugh at you
when people ask me where im from

The zucc teaching python?
This isn't a complicated quandary. Just get better friends.
wget new-friends
Do i learn python? How much time will it take?
Hi, have a 🍪
or imma say im from the midwest
It depends on you
what other languages do you know
🐍 yes, python is a swiss army knife language, very useful to know even basics
Could take a few days could take weeks
You do you
a few mins
depends on you
tbh the basics of any language tend to be very similar
it tooks me a few months
I can do two thm rooms per day, not sure how many chapters of python book
specially python, not much you need to recall to write it
that was the first lang i learned
learn 1 language , others come easier
I mean imo a book won’t help
yes
HTML, CSS, JS, JAVA
Writing code will help
oh i come from a java background too
I want to make projects with it
i learned the rest in like a hour
its gonna be easy for u
and SOME i can guess the function
Damn, where? "Can I hack bank accounts?"
Videos? What do you suggest?
print("get started today!")
email= input("What is your email?: ")
Writing code
Pick a project
Figure out how to make it
guys, what would you say that necessary qualities of a pentester are
🖊️
I'll go walk an hour or two after that I'll start it
stubborness #1 , reading , communication with clients
what i did was serched a video then follow what they do wrote notes and kept practicing and making different projects on my own
Damn, sure, you gave me a challenge, be ready for me to complete that challenge
honestly now that i use java, i kinda agree that {} is better
Gotcha! Thanks!

and a 100% reason to remember the name
tryhackme does have a python course
And a 100% reason to remember the name
Oh
was this a rap?
Remember the name by fort Knox? I forgot the artist name
i do not. in 2005 i was listening to ... Linkin Park etc
Tryna strike a chord it's probably A minorrrr
once again i am reminded i am old
Same! Not in 2005 tho, in 2013
brb I'm going to go work on a project
i get reminded everytime a new young person joins chat
he really made a whole stadium sing that, drake is so cooked ☠️
bruh, that's some beginner stuff
Drake was sitting there when it played he went out, and smiled at the camera when he called out his name
What a beginner asking for beginner stuff??? Noooo
saaaame
Drake? the Degrassi Junior High actor turned rapper
And getting beginner stuff? Who woulda thought
Does anyone else ever feel like theyre dehydrated a bit after drinking coffee?

17 glasses done, thanks!
Did homie just delete his reference to HTTP intruding like the mods won't see it anyways?
lol bro what deleting messages
it was a joke
logs 🔥
Gimme your password: 098s0s8sjssusiu
The mods can see deleted messages, deleting them does not help you.
more time you spend faster you will get good!
it didn't work
they see deleted messages
i meant try again
yea ik, im cooked, it was a joke tho
Put another log on the fire
loooo.
yk i like me sum jokes
jokes lead to 🔨

hack("sudo_veggies",password)
print("You just got hacked!😈)
Gimme your password: r"[w\9{9}\.[\w]{2}"

yall better not be using weak passwords
mine is kryptonite
especially if you combine it with a cigarette
I use month.year!
Is that weak?
mobius.strip()strip().mobius

i have python emoji matrix rain program
is it considered a string?
its passed a char
`def password_prompt() :
password = input(what is your password? ")

its been awhile since i coded emojis in my python
yall know yall can format code right?
ssame
by format you mean string formatting?

that's why you use rust

for the command injection
🦀 they can't stop the spread of rust 🦀

didn't rust have a backdoor in a module or something

Rust is gospel , holy be thy 🦀 Ferris
hm

didn't know that
PyPi has code libraries that have backdoors, not python itself
how does this scoreboard work?
uid is 1 you don't have shell well root shell
That's what modules are
yes
i think no one knows
sudo -l
which scoreboard is that? for a room?
your not enable to use the command sudo as this user
lol
190 is prob fb, 90 is the one that completed the room in the same month
yeah
( i forgot the out put )
this incident will be reported
😮
it looks weird how blue chart started from 80
but others started from 0
is it actually reported though
no clue, they should get rid of the room leaderboards imo
no, just the message for a failed user priv esc

damn, tryhackme send too much emails 
I need to revisit the linux priv esc room
its possible for "owner" to not have sudo priviledges
they send 1 per week
Can you not just opt out of emails?
no way… just today i’ve received two
Hi hi hiiii
cute boi
cat that walks like a dog lol
Can just scroll to the bottom and press unsubscribe
juss walkin'
was 1 of them a 🎉 congrats certificate/badge?
the only emails i've ever gotten is "Dont lose your streak!" and badge
There are dog/cat breeds he might be one loo
I only get the weekly email now
umwhat
I feel like giving 3 hours to python
Look up cat dog crossbreed so cute
how much do you want to know abt python
lemme check

I need to master one language
this will never happen
you will end up being very proficient in it
but you will never master it
^^ this guy gets it
tell me when you figured out how tf super works in python. python mro sucks
Im kind of a shitty programmer, i know the basics of a lot of languages but none in depth
same here!!!!
same but beside with python
never, i hate oop
i'm functional bro 😎
start small variables and data types, then conditionals, loops, oop(if ur bored or crazy)
no way that's possible
i challenge you to only code in java for a month!
oh i cant send a printscreen here, but it’s mostly propaganda
this ain't gonna happen
haha okay then
I've been to loop 8 times and keep dropping it
so this never happened?
i'd rather do asm than java
hm
what are python decorators?
they decorate
(I know)
what my uni slide actually says
doubt it
asm is crazy
they change behaviour of function or class without changing its code. if i'm getting it right
instead i just type ones and zeros
the exact definition, word for word
correct
👀
I'm going to go do a ctf cya
wheres this from
Boom cat dog though it is not a real mix it is close to a dog in looks
its pretty good, at least u have the basics
you could start building small projects now
omg why am i getting pinged so much on discord
on or dnd

I'm on loop to learning python by dropping it on loops again and again lol I'm stuck in a loop
you did a while true but forgot to break 😦
YOOOOO INFINITE LOOOPS!
I've taken so many breaks by breaking out that I don't need them anymore
im more powerful with a computer than you with a gun
anyways on a serious note how much u know abt python now
Classical american always thinking about guns
alright im gonna sleep bye
Hy
yk not all americans have guns lol, it depends on the place, like where i live in cali, i've never seen a gun before in my life, but in a normal rural town in southern texas, u'd see an old person with multiple rifles even tho there's 0 crime where he lives💀
ppl just have guns for show these days
I would like to learn under you.

Rust...... who made you?
Is this your artwork?
can't you say "using namespace std" or something at the beginning to avoid repetition?
idk because thankfully ive never learnt rust 
nah shadow did not make it
Till about loops
got more like that color pallete ?
That's a bad practice because of potential ambigiuous reference
yes.... basically all of shadows wallpapers are that palette
ah, makes sense
Is the SIEM and SOAR used in the same platform/software?
How abt functions
Or are they different?
link it if have some repo pretty pls 🙂
Does a SOC Analyst use a SIEM or SOAR or both?
funny shadow did not copy paste that link and instead typed it in and got it correct on the first try
catppuccin colored things are the best
I can create them, don't remember calling them
depends on the company i think

I want to be 0xD by June, not sure if I can reach it by just doing 2 rooms per day
welcome to feel lonely because you got no valentine this valentines day
You can. It’s really not a crazy grind
I got 0xD in a couple months
should be possible depending on what rooms you pick
you need 20k points and already got about 4k
Do some rooms enjoy yourself 🙂
Levels are a big deal for me as i take them seriously for progression, some people make it seem like a joke, those who reach it in one day through walkthroughs
Okay
All I’m saying is
It’s achievable
So you're saying I should take a bigger goal? 0xE?
And that it’s not that much of a grind
naaah stick with your current goal
I get you, didn't mean to look rude while saying it lol
Have a cookie 🍪
You good
Is it chocolate chip?
Yes it is
you might actually need to do some of the longer harder ctf rooms with lots of questions to get to 0xD actually
0xD it is then, thanks!
You have a cookie too 🍪
Gave +1 Rep to @sand trench (current: #4 - 2094)
if you only do the 2 question ones with just user and root flag you probably wont get the whole way
Ah I see, I like a little challenge to myself, harder rooms will be simpler till that time for me I bet
Thanks again for a little guide to realize my goal!
Hİ
your name is similar to mine
My discord nickname ?
yea
close 🙂
Hello.
Does tryhackme make me as knowledgeable as a corporate cybersecurity expert?
I would say no
Not an expert
nope
But it gives you skills for jr level
a corporate cybersecurity expert has experience in the field
Maybe a bit into mid
Can HTB academy make you an expert?
None of the gamified websites do.
what sites do
Well, how far can he bring me, I mean, I'm taking to become an expert.
A combination of many.
Experience and certificates it is
No its jr to mid level
So would you say both thm and htb are equal?
ah
It will give you the bare minimum skills and knowledge of cybersec, but not corporate level
5 years of experience in the field will
i like both, but they are different
What has more conceptual expertise?
Both platforms are the same in idea, however they both perform differently.
Get in there and complete some internships my friend
Yes, thats what meant haha
I mean, if you do the CPTS, some would say you can take the OSCP without any prior preparation from teh offsec material
how about htb for enterprise level
again, there are specialized certification exams for those
It's hard to get internships when there's so much competition and people with better credentials
HTB is a little harder than THM and they also offer less information than THM. THM is more beginner friendly.
and if you wanna break into pentesting OSCP/CPTS is the way to go
but will they prepare us for those exams?
no
HTB will prepare you for their own exam
Damn, I'll have to check it out, CPTS content in HTB is basically in the lowest plan they say
HTB prepares your for Cpts
yeah
Cause it runs Cpts
well, thm has the pentest+ path
Blue teaming BLT+ and CDSA
Gotcha, so first i complete thm and then I graduate to htb, more like it?
CompTIA Pentest+ https://tryhackme.com/path/outline/pentestplus
I doubt you will complete all of THM but sure if you want
I wouldn’t think of it like that
You can start HTB at anytime
The modules do a really good job explaining everything
Absolutely. There's ways of working your way up with good connections and a basic comp sci degree though. These platforms just complement your learning and give you some fun to be had, they aren't a direct railway to "expertise" or even a job
I doubt that myself
But there’s less content overall
HTB will just give you an IP/URL/etc and tell you to hack it. Meanwhile THM will give you a full step-by-step guideline where you basically dont even have to figure anything out on your own.
Try one of the active machines on htb
Unless you do HTB academy or retired machines which all have a guided path
at the end of the day can I have a job by finishing htb and tryhackme
Yes and no.
yeah thats true.
..Wat?
Purely just HTB and thm?
That's what I like about that too
Yes.
I don’t think that’ll get you a job
what
In cyber
..I've been offered two?
By being in this server and helping out alone...
Cyber is a very big networking field too.
I know
Sometimes it's not what you know, but who.
But you networked
You didn’t just do HTB and thm and get a job
You also networked
And someone saw your knowledge
Technically they work, but it's definitely not just the platforms solo. There's so much reading around the subject and talking with others, indeed
You cant just put “I do HTB and thm” on a resume and expect a job
that's true for a lot of cases
People here have good amount of experience but would they be counted as connections? Also for the compsci degree, I'm in the final semester and I'm confused between if I want to do masters so I'm thinking of waiting one year before I decide but then I'll have to fill in that year with work experience which I'm not sure how I'll get even if I wanted
See, what I mean is that if we learn from these platforms and get a certificate, can we find a job at the end of the day like CEH?
does your college not offer job placements?
Chances are if you're on the platform and your view of them is "it's just something I do in my spare time", you're gold
ceh is not a good cert
CEH also won’t just get you a job
Nah if you dont know if you want to do it or not then you probably dont want to do it. This is one of those careers you gotta be passionate about or else you will have no drive to do anything with it.
IMO no cert will just get you a job. It’s going to be the cert plus professional experience
go to linkedin or other kind of job finding platform, and take a look on what knowledge they require for jobs
what to do to win a job
branch out.
Join cons, if you're old enough join LinkedIn and network.
Network in here.
Learn
Yes they do but I was told to do higher studies so i had opted in it, I'm not in the placement division so I'll have to see how can I get in
Learn, network, learn, network.
Don't burn out.
Granted, that's something for sure there, so the platforms are 100% not just "fluff" either

"dont burn out" super underrated tip
yeah im burned out right now
imo, get in the placement program, land a job, work for a year or two, then do a masters degree
cant do s**t
I got THM burnout for a year 💀
I'm just confused about doing masters, not cybersec in general, it's been my passion since grade 6th and it will be my passion in the future too haha
Well, what do you recommend as a learning method, even if I study 8 hours a day, I forget the next day, so I practice and I'm just wondering what you recommend.
you gotta take notessss
I was so burn out pentesting at one point that I quit my $224k(year) job and barely even touched a pc for almost 2 years.
Sure, I'll do it Monday, first thing
Why, I think it's very enjoyable.
do thm info and challenge rooms, and make write-ups of everything
im thinking of doing masters mostly cos its free here
So do I, but burning out is going to happen.
then maybe try some active machines on htb
By the way, I want to be a pentester, what do you recommend me as an experienced person?
Yep, anyone is a connection. Your friends can be in the future, the good fellows you meet in conferences for example are good present ones for job seeking.
I would personally recommend a master's. That's how far I'll be going, I've heard good things from my lecturers about getting integrated ones at my university presently
Can I come over there to do my masters? Lol that's what I've been confused about too
but thm gives you a good foundation
Do all the info fundamentals rooms.
true
Go learn, youre wasting time not learning right now.
All of these questions you have will be answered once you get going and figure out what you are good at(and like doing.)
100%
Master here gonna cost me another £9000
Isn't THM also red team and red team rooms, then I will pass to HTB when I learn well
masters can cost nothing if you play your cards right
some top unis offer insane fee waivers
in fact youre paid to do masters around here
ofc thats in US, idk about other countries
Planning's worthwhile, especially when you're nearing the end of a bachelor's as this person seems to be. Some of these may be the wrong questions though
not much but still
where?
brazil
My current uni isn't very credible but it's known throughout, doing masters there is considered blasphemy among students lmao, so the entrance exams for my masters start in March and i might have to reduce the time I'm doing thm
I hope I can try for that 🙏
I see
I think it also depends on your parent's income, if its below x you get a certain amount of significant waiver
They do take the national above-average as "x", so maybe...
ok now I'm going to go and start learning the red team so what do you recommend for this practice or forgetting situation I'm using b12 medication but I think it will be solved with practice what should I do
zer0tag is in school for compsci?
Do you have a requirement to get it for your job? Are you a few years into your career looking at jumping into management?
I thought it was cookie whos in school and almost done with compsci.
b12 arent vitamins?
My job required 5 years of experience.
THM isn't my main focus currently personally, it's again, something more on the side. Your degree should take priority for the time being if you intend to go there
Ah, not zer0
My masters is similar but more cost, but I don't see it as a requirement to get a job aside from the Bachelors that I'm doing has less credibility than the masters. I've not yet entered the field but I'd like to, not sure how
No, I'm in the last year of high school, I don't think I'll get a university degree, I'm learning English, I'm studying for the IRS exams and I'm thinking of getting a scholarship because there are very few experts in my country.
Rusty rust!
🦀
Yeah thats what I thought, he thought I was talking to cookie and not you.
yea
Nah, I'm currently doing my Bachelor's still and working through placements
I see, so do you think I can turn this situation around?
This convo is more for #cyber-and-careers, but getting a masters before you enter the industry is not advisable. It places you out of entry level salary ranges and also companies are hesitant to hire you for entry roles. I wouldn't do a masters program unless it's paid for by an organization, tbh.
Interesting. I see
wait fr?
Generally it's being recommended or seems commonplace where I'm at currently. I'll have to consult my lecturers again
I mean, in terms of career, can I come to a point by improving myself on IRC and these platforms and if I win a scholarship, I think I can get a degree in my department because I started logically early
my plan was on doing it to get an entry level on the area cos i cant pay for so many certificates
Even with certs, youre most likely going to start off in entry level anyways
until you can build experience and a better resume for higher ranking jobs
Yes, it bumps you out of entry salaries as you'll need to make more to pay off the additional schooling. Companies are also reluctant due to you leaving quicker than their business plan allows. You're overqualified, essentially.
Yep. That's necessary for one or two years from what I've gathered. Cue the average cyber "you need 7 years of experience" job listings
A masters in cyber is pointless right off the bat.
Organizations and companies pay for your masters? Thats new
It's not for good companies. Most companies have some level of education funds
*in the US
Is all of this in relevance to the US?
this guy gets it @did you google
Scrubz can better answer the UK region
I'm currently in the UK having it be recommended, that's something to note
Is anyone getting issues after connecting to openvpn like while participating in room to access the machine
i wast thinking more so i could gain contact in the industry during masters
OK, but this is Turkey, my friend, why should I not be able to find a job when there are almost no experts on this subject and the deficit is so big?
nope, how are you trying to connect to the vpn?
I'm getting pointed towards Warwick's Cyber master's degree by a lot of people here
if its anything like brazil, its precisely because no one cares about security
Nothing much bro, how you hanging?
openvpn name.ovpn
are you in the folder the ovpn file is in?
@sick lance
May well be different there, indeed. I do not have much context on the cyber jobs landscape there unfortunately, this is mostly tackling US/UK views
Lol i some how opened discord as you replied
....that was a reality check as a college (high school) kid
Yes
Welcome to chat
Look, man, the people I know stole the data of 101 million people from the Turkish system 3 years ago and they did it at the age of 15, do you understand? So in this case, I think I can find a job.
Sometimes, but it's usually when you're very strongly established in your role
what is the output of the command you using?
Please can you use #site-support for this?
maybe for blue team, but red is gonna be much harder
Sure

@naive violet
I would definitely disagree with this respectfully. Have a masters in any field gives you a lot of undeniable leverage over others. The degreee doesn't even have to align with the field in numerous cases.
It's not that it's difficult, it's just that there is a way out.
the instagram link is clean from virustotal
I was an idiot and clicked on it anyway
You'd be the only one.
geez
Hhhhhh
bachelor degree with some experience > master degree with no experience
What on earth
I understand, I have to work now, take care of yourself, by the way, if I pass IRC Den, I can think abroad, countries like the USA
@mossy river
Well you're right about that
@sick lance
From what I've heard
Bro are sharing links are not allowed here ?
I see, but as Google said that if you do masters directly after Bachelors, you're basically over qualified and companies are reluctant to take you in, I'm confused because my placement isn't set in stone and i don't know how to get one through connections, if I manage to get one then I can postpone doing masters
Yes basically
Jobby jobs are growing 😁
@naive violet ^
Bruh ofc it is
It's just related to a motivational cybersec career lol
I still disagree though to be fair. Colleagues and friends of mine have had similar experiences but that cant speak for everyone so it is what it is but i still wouldn't consider a degree of any sorts useless it is likely the case of holders not actually applying themselves.
"Not a scam or quick scheme"
You need ✨ many ✨
Mods are busy tonight
sister, tons of people just post links and so i 💯 think you are scam
scrubz fell asleep the millisecond before the message
I thought that was coffee 🥲
i love that show
If you have to say it’s legit and not a scam the job is a scam
Same
Oh nvm
But dude, even if I have connections, how do I ask them for a job?
LOL
kindly only send de-motivation videos here thanks

If I understand it correctly you don't do anything and get paid for being a friend
I mean, its not hard to get a job at all... just gotta try, and that dont take much effort.
De motivation you say?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EbXSbP-wEFU
It's Playtime! Remember Mr. Six? The creepy old guy from the Six Flags commercials? It's been over ten years since this first one and it's still one of the best theme park commercials ever made!
Done!
Trust him bro /s
Ah

hope the mods drank enough caffeine
Bonjour, hello, bom dia, konischiwa 🙂
Well, messaging them or applying to a job and referencing them. If they recognise your face and have any say in their organisation, they'll consider you
I wouldn't mod if they paid me lol

considering the spam has increased
Besides that, just having the connections on LinkedIn is something employers will just wander and see when you're being interviewed or selected
I m fine thank you. How are you?

I'm alright thank you 🌸

Having a mester degree is focused more on supervisor/manager position.
You won't be getting that off the bat.
hey all, new to the discord, quick question: While running linpeas on a box unrelated to AWS, linpeas displayed the access and secret keys and token related to the account to deploy the box. I get a feeling this isn't intentional and may want to be reviewed by someone at thm, but I figured I would start here.
well they dont pay so youre off the hook
Oh know for sure i agree with this
Alright sounds like hmmmmm
If this is THM it's natural.
ok cool thanks
lol just noticed spotify's progress bar cool stuff 🙂
@sick lance I just want to know something
Are sharing links allowed or not ? I am new here.
And if it's not allowed just turn it off from the settings or bot's rules.
Well said, i shall get to applying to jobs, one in a million if I get one, that'll be appreciated, thanks!
