Cool to send a friend request? Per rules, have to ask for permission, so double checking πŸ˜„

And depending on what you do you might never need to write anything

mossy river
#

It depends on where you work primarily, you will have to still read code but reading is much easier than writing code

sharp grotto
blissful current
#

i mean AI is there now , so coding is tbh not really a need ,

but what i meant it for ..was manual code reviewing such as in DevSecOps etc like stuff

mossy river
#

Just don't lose your head over the thought of it, who knows maybe you'll enjoy programming

blissful current
#

should have knowledge of coding ofcourse , otherwise it would feel like gibberish

# sharp grotto you find mistakes when you know how to do it

Mhm but you don't need to understand it at such a low level and the more you expose yourself to code the easier it is.
I had only basic experience with Python but I found vulnerabilities in lots of different programs using various programming languages.

I was doing the active reconnaissance room and stumble across this: "First, you can connect to a server, as you did with Telnet, to collect its banner using nc HOST_IP PORT, which is quite similar to our previous telnet HOST_IP PORT. Note that you might need to press SHIFT+ENTER after the GET line."

#

What is a banner

naive violet
#

The text you get when you connect

#

Usually version information and what software it is

are you talking about the output of the telnet?

Hey guys i think there is a glitch in the learning program for Cyber Security > Windows and AD Fundamentals > Active Directory Basics I tried running the attack box but it opens a linux instance instead of a windows one so i cant answer the questions accurately, anyone else run into this problem and how to fix it?

stray marsh
full bramble
#

thanks ill do that but the attack box has to be windows because the other option is kali linux

sand trench
#

no no no no

#

the attackbox is always linux and ubuntu based

#

the target machines sometimes start a split view though

#

hence said split view is sometimes windows

#

if you have it in split view there is tabs at the bottom of the split views right side

hello hackers.. I'm just a beginner and learning on try hack me.. today I completed my nmap basics module.. after completion i tried scanning on my college website and I am connected to the college's FTP server.. now it is asking credentials and i don't have them.. i tried anonymous and admin but dint worked.. now, can anyone tell me what things I can do further

clicking on those lets you switch between the different splits which some can be windows

You can create your own website, or ask your colegue for permission. But without one of those, accessing servers is illegal and helping you right now would be breaking the terms of this server.

i have completed those tasks at first i tried to scan my network.. after that I started to check on websites.. usually i will test everything on instagram, x and nasa. gov and my college website like pinging traceroute.. similiarly i learnt nmap and i tried it.. i don't want to do anything unethical.. if I found anything there... then I'll get appreciation in my college.. i thought like that πŸ™ƒ

@river linden
Seems like an okay article to read before doing anything: https://eicta.iitk.ac.in/knowledge-hub/ethical-hacking/the-legal-and-ethical-aspects-of-ethical-hacking-understanding-your-responsibilities/. It's generally not a good idea to try anything on a piece of software/hardware you don't own. Especially if you're a beginner, since you'd never know the extent of damage you can cause. And even if you don't cause damage, the question of law still remains πŸ˜„

For admins/moderators: Please let me know if it's not okay to share external links, so that I can remove this πŸ™

what is it

finite basalt
#

my literature review is complete, just need to wait for feedback

cold sparrow
#
  1. Not enough process diagrams.
finite basalt
#

Man I still have to do the experiment for it and the findings etc.

#

but at least the bulk of it's done πŸ™

#

While I wait for feedback I'm going to start on another 4k word report that's due in 2 weeks

cold sparrow
#

Are you in law school?

finite basalt
#

nah, am studying cyber security and digital forensics

cold sparrow
#

Good luck. I think the only cyber class that I had to write that much wsa cyber law

finite basalt
#

I swear to god in second year we wrote two reports that were 6 pages each, that's it. Whatever this year is I don't like it 😭

cold sparrow
#

And the capstone

finite basalt
#

Last semester I had to write 10k words, this semester 15k

cold sparrow
#

Don't blame you, but you'll get through it and will be better for it.

finite basalt
#

I have written more this year than I think I have in my life haha

cold sparrow
#

Ha

#

Masters or bachelors

finite basalt
#

bachelors, couldn't pay me to do a masters at my uni haha

cold sparrow
#

It might be less writing. Those masters TA's dont have all day to read

finite basalt
#

yeah but I've had a right hassle with my diss supervisor

cold sparrow
#

I remember I got hit once for going over the word count

#

So did half the class

finite basalt
#

at first he was outright rude and failed to provide any constructive feedback, then he argued semantics, then gave me feedback in riddles

cold sparrow
#

That sucks.

finite basalt
#

on the plus hand, since enough complaints have been made against my dissertation supervisor, his marking is also going to be checked by multiple other tutors and myself and my housemate have been personally apologised to by our course director

#

My dissertation supervisor firmly believes there's no wordlimit for a dissertation, if it wasn't a problem I'd say "bless him, he's no clue what a dissertation is does he" but it is a pain in the arse for sure haha

cold sparrow
#

I cna't imagine why so much writing is needed in cyber, but I'll tell you this. It is a useful skill in the real world. So there is some benefit

finite basalt
#

Oh for sure, I think what actually really sucks is that I really enjoy the topic I'm writing about but unfortunately this year has sucked so badly that I really can't be bothered with it, at least I've carried myself with my other modules so I only need to average 51% across these last modules to get a first

#

It's actually really ironic imo, one of the modules last year was a 9k word report and I hated it and nearly submitted it half done because I knew I could get away with it, ended up doing it fully just to get as high as I could in case my diss supervisor let me down and it ended up being my highest module across all my years.
That module alone was worth 14.5% of my degree grade roughly

cold sparrow
#

9000 words is crazy!

knotty pendant
cold sparrow
#

36 minutes of reading. 31+ pages writing (Double spaced, 12 point font)

stuck mulch

finite basalt
finite basalt
#

Like the dissertation is worth 40 credits and is nearly the same amount of writing with the paper being one of the most significant parts 🀣

finite basalt
#

So by the end of this year I will have written over double that, that's also excluding the software engineering module which I'll see if I can find how many lines I wrote for that
edit: checked and the code I wrote was 2583 lines of code as well

I just got overwhelmed with all of the possibilities to scan a website and webapp’s server for vulnerabilities, can someone help, maybe suggest the best ones or idkπŸ˜­πŸ™πŸΌ

Like for coding, you'll never remember every function, get into a mindset of "there's probably a function/library for that" and then google it and find out, kinda the same for most things imo. Don't know how to use a tool? --help, man page, online documentation, stack overflow

Just that sort of thing, and don't be afraid to try and apply the knowledge of something you know to something completely different when learning

desert dirge

It's a new way of thinking for most people, I had trouble with it too. If you trust the fundamentals you get introduced to at the beginning, and don't try to figure them out any deeper, instead broaden your knowledge of accounting, you will get the bigger picture and you will understand the individual parts much better.

Well, idk about yours, but just looking at a diagram for one I found on the internet,
on one side you'll have the connector towards the antenna
On the other side, you'll have a hookup for the power adapter next to the hookup for the receiver which could be a dvr or a modem.
