general

[eager marsh]

This focuses on constrained language mode, which I have to write a wrapper for using msbuild as a lolbas

[queen flare]

i'd say pick one with a bit of gpu if you wanna do hash cracking

[ashen marsh]

do u need a all in one or specifically for pentest

[queen flare]

otherwise most decent laptops would do fine

[modest charm]

2k for a notebook is a lot.
Id invest less than that in a notebook and get some other peripherals

[limpid jacinth]

mainly for pentesting i'll probs just install arch or sum on it

[wooden totem]

why does blud want specific laptop, just look at the specs

[limpid jacinth]

i never said notebook

[ashen marsh]

ya

[modest charm]

I read notebook somewhere

[limpid jacinth]

cause some laptops are ass? thats like saying why does bro want a specific car

[modest charm]

but id recommend a notebook anyway

I use a dell xps and I love it

[wooden totem]

don't look at cars, look at car specs

[ashen marsh]

if u want then go for a pc (personal suggestion)

[limpid jacinth]

i got a pc bro i need laptop for portability

[eager marsh]

insert joke about car hacking here

[modest charm]

I plug my dell xps on a docker and use it with another keyboard and 2 27" screens

[leaden marsh]

Perfect

[ashen marsh]

ohk

[limpid jacinth]

not all cars are good even if the specs are better than others

[wooden totem]

I would never buy a smart car

[modern fox]

how yall doin

[queen flare]

i've had a guy asking "hackers" to find his stolen car once

[wooden totem]

I didn't know I had to be specific, but the full idea is that you look at specs first, then go by reliability and other factors

[leaden marsh]

I have question if I finished the crouse I can Study cybersecurity 101 and jr pentesting easliy I stopped where I contuined

[queen flare]

good plan

[limpid jacinth]

i mean you can really get same specs in most high end laptops just some work better same for cars

[ashen marsh]

Have Tesla stopped giving out the coin if you hack their car?

[modest charm]

dell xps and lenovo thinkpad.. I agree you cant go wrong with these

[eager marsh]

pretty sure they did

[ashen marsh]

i would prefer old thinkpad more than the latest one

[sick lance]

That's sad.

[wooden totem]

(you gotta explain your reasoning)

[silver sky]

Built like tanks

[ashen marsh]

see i m a student and have no money so buying a laptop specifically for cyebrsec

is really hard and would prefer second hand laptops

Hello everyone,
I hope you are all doing well.
I have a question about cybersecurity and the various specializations within the field. As you know, cybersecurity is one of the largest and most complex areas in IT, which can be quite confusing for beginners like me. I’ve done a lot of reading about different paths, including penetration testing (hacking) and blue team roles, but I still feel lost and unsure about where to focus my efforts.
If someone could help me find the right direction and suggest where to start to secure a job quickly in this field, I would greatly appreciate it. I have completed the Google Cybersecurity Certificate and am currently pursuing my bachelor's degree in cybersecurity (I still haven’t decided which program I will choose, tho). However, the approach of my university has added to my confusion because there are so many different programs related to cybersecurity.
Thank you!.

[opaque flax]

I’m quitting my job rn thanks

You’re working as a bug hunter and feel lost ?

There’s a super extensive pen tester cert on hack the box as well, very difficult to get

[whole whale]

no i mean i feel lost to start in network penetsting i found a lot of resources and feel Dispersion

[crystal mauve]

I’m planning to finish the thm red path then give it a go, 400$ for starters

So do you bug hunt for a living ?

Or are you an aspiring bug hunter like myself ?

Sorry difficult to gauge from what you’re saying

[whole whale]

At this stage, I’m prioritizing my growth as a penetration tester rather than bug hunting, so I’m exploring network penetration testing as a specialization

[sand trench]

anyone wanna download 193 GB of data???

[sudden pond]

depends on data

[sand trench]

this data to be specific

[upper knoll]

why are u offering someones backup data?

[devout palm]

xd

[sand trench]

that is shadows backup drive with a lot of zim files for offline reading

[upper knoll]

u realise it has a full name right?

[sand trench]

yes... an alias name shadow burnt ages ago

what about it???

[upper knoll]

fair

[devout palm]

Lol why would shadow put her real name

[amber inlet]

My mother never named me for better OPsec

[sand trench]

unless there is some old long forgotten service shadow has where they have not changed the password in years the worst you can do with this alias is get shadows email address and send spam/scams

[polar spoke]

just looking for someone to back it?

it's only 200gb, if you need someone to pull a copy i can

[sand trench]

anyways this is the location where you can download said zim files: https://library.kiwix.org/#lang=eng

[sand trench]

naaah that was just asking if anyone else likes data hoarding backups of this stuffs

[polar spoke]

ah ok

[sand trench]

technically after you have downloaded this data you can get some privacy by just viewing the files offline but that is not the main reason shadow downloads it

they offer torrent downloads from said library site too so yeah

legal legit reason to download torrents and seed

[steady pewter]

..what even is this?

[devout palm]

What is the main reason?

[sand trench]

let shadow show you in a more web browser looks

[steady pewter]

okay..?

[sand trench]

the first image is a list of the copies shadow has

the second image is the arch wiki from said copy

and last is bulbapedia for pokemon knowledge from said copy

shadow can now read this whenever they want even when offline

and if said sites goes poof shadow has their backup still

[steady pewter]

So you pretty much archive snapshots of sites.

[sand trench]

yuups

[steady pewter]

Small question, why archive bulbapedia?

[sand trench]

because shadow loves their first 3 gens of pokemon

[steady pewter]

alright, that makes sense. How large is that specific file?

[sand trench]

also like 4th gen but not as much

913 MB

[steady pewter]

can you archive an archive?

...of an archive, from an archive?

[sand trench]

probably

[steady pewter]

Interesting...believe it or not, I made my own archiving program, for dynamic dependency-heavy sites.

[sand trench]

without pictures the bulbapedia entry is about 300MB

[steady pewter]

With pictures?

[sand trench]

914.3 MB to be very exact

as that is the copy shadow got

[steady pewter]

How many bytes?

[sand trench]

archive date is 2022-02

you won't get a better estimate then this

[steady pewter]

I..don't think that's an estimate (says the exact amount of bytes)

[sand trench]

well the difference between size and size on disk

[steady pewter]

Ah, I see what you mean.

[sand trench]

anyways shadow recommeds using kiwix to download site data that you might find useful offline

[steady pewter]

Examples?

[umbral bay]

👋

[sand trench]

wikipedia for general enclypodia knowledge
mdwiki for health stuffs
ifixit for how to repair your tech
stackoverflow if you like programming

[steady pewter]

👋

[sand trench]

ello ello tim

shadow likes storing a lot of drm free content that they can use in emergencies

[amber inlet]

I once spent like hours trying to compress a bunch of movies to a zip file save on a drive, only to later realize that you saved absolutely 0 space doing this

[round orbit]

That’s not the point

I’m tryna prepare myself for the role not the employer

[sand trench]

well yeah for movie storage you use different codecs for size depending on how much data you are okay with losing

shadow generally just keeps the movies on blu rays for now

[amber inlet]

That’s good, yeah that make sense in hindsight lol. I was just thinking “zip = smol”

I just have a few of my favorite things straight up on a decent size drive

[sand trench]

yeah so far the only movie shadow has a none blu ray copy of is the garden of sinners future gospel... because the blu ray does not have english subtitle so shadow ripped it to add subtitles

[crystal mauve]

Oh so they don’t care got it, I misunderstood

[frank cradle]

is there a requirement to submit writeups like within three days after a room is released ?

[round orbit]

?

I didn’t say that

I’m not doing it for them, I’m doing it for myself

[devout palm]

Not within, after.

[sand trench]

the 72 hour embargo is there to avoid cheating and let everyone have an even playing field for blood points and learning from the experience

[devout palm]

It's up to the room creator to accept the write-up.

[sand trench]

so yeah wait the whole 72 hours before submitting a writeup

A couple of career round tables. Where we discussed enterprise IT culture, startup culture, etc.

[leaden marsh]

I will eat this

[leaden marsh]

What means IT culture

[crystal mauve]

Oh, were these recorded and available to watch ?

[whole yew]

Not as far as I know

[crystal mauve]

I’m interested in the creation or history of thm/htb and what the groundwork was, creators etc

[whole yew]

I wouldn't know about either of those

[crystal mauve]

Who started first , etc

Ic

[leaden marsh]

Welp, I have unfortunate news. The vulnerability I mentioned earlier; after doing my verification. Is not a vulnerability, but a implementation of the website.

However, I did access a "private" (as in, those with the link) collaboration dashboard that's basically a cheap Adobe Photoshop/Google Workspace.

As for why I kinda investigated this, because this was logged on company-owned devices and it's legit part of my job to investigate misuse of technology. Why? Because policies, regulations, blah blah, etc, whatever you want to call it. You guys get what I mean.

I brought it up to my Administrators so their problem now.

I have failed you all... v.v

Legit thought I found something again like with that Medicaid website

And no, not gonna say what they did

[leaden marsh]

What u mean

[pearl raven]

Assumed misspelling of Mashallah.

Some advice, even if things seem to intimidating, don't give up.

There have been quite a few peeps I remember back then that gave up and pretty much disappeared

It looks like a mind set thing. I told myself, "I am at work 12 hours a day, I can learn a lot in those 12 hours". It seems those who are willing to sacrifice will win.

[oblique loom]

[leaden marsh]

[rich zenith]

It's all about breaking away from a dead end job!!! I think there's no way I can fail. I guess it is like most other things. Not many folks see things through all the way.

[leaden marsh]

[leaden marsh]

I want to download it?

I've just ask it to an ai but I don't know how to download

Why can AI not lookup youtube videos

I asked it to summarise a video and sent it a link to some security webinar, it said “The link you sent me appears to be a video of the moon landing”

[stoic quarry]

Depends on if the model is blocked

I think google just want Gemini to have access

If you're writing your own, just grab the transcript from a video and analyze that

Don't worry about the actual video

[sick lance]

Why do you need staff?

[ashen marsh]

Think of it as a big container which is hosted on the web you can put anything in it (if it fits) and it will help you host it on the internet. Now if there are a lot of things on a webserver, software's like apache and node js etc. will help us to explore the container or webserver or find and retrieve what we need

whatever you prefer is better. regarding support for the distribution i guess you could say Fedora has a much larger community / set of maintainers but that will have very little effect on your everyday use or perspective on which of the two distros are "better"

Hi manner

[crystal mauve]

Brave ai? Didn’t know this was thing , currently just use chatgpt + perplexity

Hey Blake

[polar shale]

I have began habit stacking

[crystal mauve]

Rly which ones

[ashen marsh]

i use that also but there are many other arguement the man pages contain and tldr

dont

take ls for example

[polar shale]

well i am building my habit stack for the evening so far. Includes, meditation, reading, work stuff, back to meditation e.g.

[high mulch]

Yeah, it's called Leo.
I use it (brave) on most of my browsers as search engine.

[crystal mauve]

Oh, I thought habit stacking referred to do 2 or more at the same time , like listening to professor messlier while taking a walk

[polar shale]

Next book is ruchest man in babylon but is much smaller

[polar shale]

Oh its kind of using the end of one habit as a cue to start another

[polar shale]

Ah ok , have you journaled your daily routine!

Yea a couple times so far actually

Want to be accurate

I actually have a lot of good habits i didnt know of and less bad ones then i thought

[crystal mauve]

Haha that’s cool to notice that, glad you’re finding value in it

[crystal mauve]

U don’t have the doom scrolling attribute?

[polar shale]

Before the doomscrolling idea got coined or termed whatever i did previously have a habit of over consumption of internet content(youtube, Instagram, news e.g.) before the algorithms were as good as they are now and didnt like this so i fortunately kicked that habit long ago and when it arises again i just shut my phone off, pick up a book, use my laptop(never doomscrolled there before lol), do my actaul job e.g.

I recognize very quickly

[crystal mauve]

When I took an honest n accurate assessment of my regular habits I was seriously embarrassed at how much of a lizard brain I am

hey I am (re)starting my journey in cyber security
is a m series macbook viable for pentesting or web hacking?

[mossy river]

Not really, intel CPU is better

[lofty lake]

Thanks again

[polar shale]

Regarding virtualization but in all other aspects thsy should be just fine with silicone correct?

[lofty lake]

No issue Sir

I've been verified

[mossy river]

Arm lacks support with a lot of things, and you shouldn't really be pentesting without using a VM anyway

[polar shale]

whats wrong with pentesting without a vm? I pentest on baremetal with a reliable backup procedure just fine and have access to virtualization whenever needed. I mean i understand rolling back snapshots but again it would be best to have your host os included in back up procedures either way

[unborn cairn]

for coding macbooks are really prefered and now that I will soon be admitting myself into a bsc cs program, I was thinking that macbook is so good that people swear by it

[cosmic pendant]

The latest macbooks are intel eh?

[polar shale]

well i wouldnt blindly choose a product based off what anyone says always rely on technical specifications

[blissful snow]

arm?

[cosmic pendant]

1: make sure it's intel. 2: outside of that it doesn't matter that much, but bring alittle horsepower, if your program has you compile things from scratch 😦

[polar shale]

Yes

[cosmic pendant]

Do you wipe your laptop between asseements?

[blissful snow]

i just fix all my js code :(

and broke it all

again

[polar shale]

Im sorry?

[unborn cairn]

no, I have owned a thinkpad and a dell gaming laptop and the performance drop and unrealibilty of those were crazy

[blissful snow]

gotta go

[cosmic pendant]

Pentesting without a vm is doable, but not recommended, the big reasons are records keeping

[mossy river]

It’s generally bad practice and overall unsafe to pentest without a VM. In pentesting orgs, you usually have to use a fresh install for each client.

When you are new to cybersecurity, it’s not good advice to tell newcomers to use their host.

Always good to practice the best cyber hygiene

[cosmic pendant]

Exactly what Jabba wrote here

[polar shale]

I never told anybody to do anything or advised anybody of anything.

Ive only proclaimed that i pentest from my host os without any issues from corporate nor in my personal endeavors but everyone has a differnt way of handling things i guess lol

[blissful snow]

im back i fix

[blissful snow]

why is it unsafe

[unborn cairn]

so does anyone here actually has experince running macos for web pentesting and networking attacks?

[round orbit]

Who are some people worth following in cyber security, mainly SOC?

[polar shale]

corporate security policies i belive he is referring to

[blissful snow]

ahh

[cosmic pendant]

Records keeping and seperation

Unless you are saving an image of your laptop..... Vms are just better

"What command did you enter that broke our system"

[sinful cairn]

Hey guys Im looking for a workgroup to work on THM room or HTB machines remotely in vocal channels, is there something like that here ?

[mossy river]

When you are new you will make mistakes and will make your machine vulnerable or break it. On top of that, you will download exploits and other software that can be used on your machine.

[blissful snow]

rm --no-preserve-root i can't put the full thing

[polar shale]

I mean it really depends on who you work for tbh 😂 not all companies have the same policies. While i will agree though however, BEST PRACTICES should probably he used at all times

[blissful snow]

ahh

[silver sky]

Imagine downloading some malware onto your machine and then infecting an entire clients network

[blissful snow]

happened to my network when i was younger 😭

[polar shale]

Or consider a BBP you can do that from Host OS just fine and will be risking nothing but i guess your own device

[cosmic pendant]

Do people really backdoor POCs on github? ............ https://www.uptycs.com/blog/threat-research-report-team/fake-poc-repositories-malicious-code-github

[blissful snow]

the malware broke everything beside the free game so i was happy

[cosmic pendant]

At somepoint silliness goes to just being wrong

[blissful snow]

i saw this before

[cosmic pendant]

Did everyone else?

[blissful snow]

and thats why you read the exploit you run

[sinful cairn]

Sorry to interrupt your discussion guys, do you have any ideas ?

[blissful snow]

ohhh didn't see the question

[polar shale]

Imagine doing that on corporate infrastructure
Youd be fucked either way

[blissful snow]

yes

[blissful snow]

yes

[silver sky]

this is why you use a fresh VM

[blissful snow]

what would happen

[silver sky]

Sued

Hence why pentester firms have good lawyers and insurance

[cosmic pendant]

Anyway. There used to be study groups that were ran weekly

[polar shale]

Not all infrastructure in a companies environment is virtualized lol ..

[blissful snow]

ah

[cosmic pendant]

I think we got away from that a bit

[blissful snow]

does your licencee expire permanently

[silver sky]

Licence?

[blissful snow]

yeah

[silver sky]

For what?

[blissful snow]

i put anoher e by accident

[blissful snow]

.

[silver sky]

[blissful snow]

by the i put this in a joking way

but do they take your license

[silver sky]

What licence?

[blissful snow]

to pen test

[silver sky]

[blissful snow]

don't you have o have one or something

i might have i mixed with something else

[silver sky]

At the moment I don't know anywhere that licences penetration testers

[craggy wadi]

Good little article. When the repo for the POC doesn't actually contain the POC, that's kinda a major red flag imo. As someone with common sense, youd ask yourself "why is the POC not available for direct download from the repo?"

[blissful snow]

certs *

thats what i meant

[polar shale]

No

[silver sky]

Ahhhh no

[blissful snow]

i thought license was different

[blissful snow]

ah

[polar shale]

Im gonna go test against prod

[cosmic pendant]

I think the point is more important than the how in the article. But source code review only does so much

[round orbit]

Who do you guys follow on social media cybersec wise? Twitter, YouTube, etc?

[cosmic pendant]

All the time. What choice do you have

[silver sky]

Certification = Qualified to a set standard

Licence = Permitted to practice or do an activity (such as driving) after passing a test or something else

[round orbit]

To learn about new threats etc?

[silver sky]

You keep bumping 😂

Vx-underground on twitter is a good one

Morning o/ ☕

New work ID badge came in, but I kinda don't like the design

[whole gazelle]

[round orbit]

@oblique loom What's the design

Is it RFID? Have you cloned it yet?

[oblique loom]

Its like a really dark red and the logo seems off

[onyx wolf]

Hlo

Anyone use Kali Linux image ?

[oblique loom]

Yup

[cosmic pendant]

For what purpose?

[oblique loom]

Using it rn actually

[onyx wolf]

I am using vm ware pro workstation & kali Linux image

[oblique loom]

Nice

[onyx wolf]

I am saying that my Kali Linux used to run fine, sometimes it is running slow

[round orbit]

Should use ESXi over WS

[cosmic pendant]

how can you say that?

[round orbit]

How many cores

[oblique loom]

Running slow in what way?

[cosmic pendant]

Like, you know their uses case?

[round orbit]

Yeah I've used both

[cosmic pendant]

.............

[round orbit]

ESXi will get you more experience with virtualisation and will help you in the long run when it comes to job hunting and resume writing

[onyx wolf]

@oblique loom Terminal and File Tools Opening something Opening in 30 seconds

[oblique loom]

Ah

[onyx wolf]

[willow mauve]

[oblique loom]

[onyx wolf]

[blissful sorrel]

How long does it take support to reply to tickets ?

[oblique loom]

What's the desktop environment? Also, did you check background processes for anything that could be slowing down the machine?

[opaque flax]

[willow mauve]

[round orbit]

Lol

[willow mauve]

[sick lance]

#site-support please, not general. 🙂

[onyx wolf]

@oblique loom my laptop
ram - 32
storage 1 tb
rygon 7 5700 U

[round summit]

What's the output of sudo apt update ?

[cosmic pendant]

This is good if that is in the scope of things you want to learn

But that's a shit argument

Most people don't have ESXI, most people don't use ESXI, you are much much less likely to use it in the real world

[oblique loom]

I think VMware is more common in businesses, but not 100%

Work has it setup for us

[round summit]

used to be, I see more and more companies leaving it for qemu

[round orbit]

VMware is the industry leader yes

For how long? Who knows, a lot of criticism since Broadcom took over and ramped up the prices by about 500% that's for sure

[oblique loom]

Oof

[round summit]

in the past year

and yeah, broadcom and contract changes are the main reason, at least as far as I can tell

[round orbit]

Yeah they really did f it up and ruin it for a lot of people
