Hello everyone,

I’m currently looking for a tutor or mentor who can help me improve my skills in email penetration testing, phishing techniques (for ethical purposes), and general ethical hacking. I'm serious about learning and would appreciate guidance, whether it's through private sessions or structured lessons.

If anyone is offering tutoring or can point me in the right direction, please DM me. Thank you!

Mad everyday I learn smth new about ur ex course

oblique loom

I understand, but I would like to discuss this more in detail later on as I plan to take same exam at some point near future.

knotty valve
#

I know network engineers that failed the CCNA

#

Exams like that can be painfully hard

#

But having it can be useful

oblique loom
#

Challenge is part of life for me

rapid merlin
#

The only proper exam I took was the cismp

#

I've worked in information technology for 8 years college not included

knotty valve
#

Pretty much the same for the CCNP and CCNA

#

My major? System Admin

Ccna has up to 60 questions in 90 minutes
But the ccnp has iirc up to 120 questions in about the same time

rapid merlin

knotty valve
#

Level 1 support is just pain

#

Level 2 and 3 is fine tho

wary ocean
#

job easy, people stupidity is a different story

#

the amount of people that get scared when their computer freezes and they dont know how long 15 seconds is is sad

knotty valve
#

15s is long tbf

#

Especially when you're waiting

wary ocean
#

15 is the max, usually 5-10

jade oar
knotty valve
#

I've frozen a system permanently

#

I don't know how I did it

But it happened

#

impressive

rapid merlin

#

i made a chromebook smoke before in middle school

knotty valve
#

Nicotine is bad for the CPU smh

wary ocean

knotty valve

Bathtime for the laptop

rapid merlin
#

I’ve never made a device smoke before, thank god.

jade oar
#

how do you even make it smoke

knotty valve
#

Yes

rapid merlin
#

So glad I quit smoking, one of the best things I did tbf

knotty valve
#

Usually by components overheating

knotty valve
rapid merlin
knotty valve
#

Nice

#

I'm smoking a lot less than I used to

#

25s now last 25 days

#

So yeah

rapid merlin
#

I started casually at 15, then properly smoking at 18

knotty valve
#

Getting there! Slowly but surely

rapid merlin
#

I was like a chain smoker, awful.

rapid merlin
knotty valve
#

It won't be my first time quitting lmao

#

I relapsed few years back

rapid merlin
#

I notice one thing, I can really smell it on others now I don’t smoke.

knotty valve
#

Yeah, it's not a nice smell

orchid kernel
#

just stop

wary ocean
#

i caught it on fire cuz the corner was damaged rally badly

rapid merlin
#

A lot of people relapse but the main thing is you don’t stop trying to quit

wary ocean
#

ik that message was a while ago i was mid match

knotty valve
#

I have to ease off of things otherwise I get adverse reactions to my mental health

rapid merlin
#

Nice good job 👍

jade oar
#

i started smoking at 13 till now

rapid merlin
jade oar
#

good thing to help u stop is gum and sweet / food

knotty valve
#

Yeah I use the gum trick lmao

jade oar
#

me i just like nictione but i made a promise to somone so yeah

rapid merlin
#

I’ve seen those straws online that have a tension part in the middle. Meant to help you quit

#

You like puff of them

jade oar
#

oh you guys know velo or nictione gum

orchid kernel
#

don’t beat yourself up if you slip. It's not failure, it's practice. Just keep coming back to that choice: "Not today." ,

jade oar
#

wary ocean
#

ik some use the prop cigarettes

rapid merlin
jade oar
#

yeah there is so many products to help you quit

knotty valve
#

I just use chewing gum tbh

jade oar
jade oar
rapid merlin
#

The one thing I don’t miss from when I smoked was my keyboard

orchid kernel
#

don’t try to quit forever right away. Just quit for today. Then do it again tomorrow. Take it one honest day at a time.

knotty valve
#

I have a prescription vape but I rarely use it cause it tastes god awful and if I don't eat I'll feel horribly sick

wary ocean
#

was that supposed to be intentional?

knotty valve
rapid merlin
knotty valve
#

Popcorn lungs

jade oar
#

they have chemicals on them smoke a cig better in my opinion

knotty valve
#

They're generally worse than cigarettes

jade oar
#

true

knotty valve
#

There are ways to make essentially "safe" vapes but not worth it at all

#

Better to just chew gum

#

And be a badass imho

jade oar
#

lamo u gott this fr

rapid merlin
#

I’ve had an addiction to gum before you know. My jaw was killing me. I mean just normal gum

wary ocean
#

there was a group of boys who thought they were hot shit at my school cuz they smoked a vape

#

they smelt like bubble gum and cotton candy

#

like nah you aint a threat

knotty valve
#

Lmfaoo

jade oar
#

🤣

rapid merlin
knotty valve
#

"but it's a vape bro, trust me bro, I'm so cool"

jade oar
#

" bro its good take a hit "

rapid merlin
#

Straight outta the candy factory

knotty valve
#

😂

knotty valve
#

I'd be more afraid of the girl with black hair chewing bubble gum then I would be afraid of them 😂

#

Also coffee time

rapid merlin
#

I’m so tired

#

It’s almost 5am

jade oar
rapid merlin
#

Girls with black hair ?

knotty valve
#

(she says as her hair is blue)

wary ocean
#

there wasnt anyone like that at my school tbh

knotty valve
#

And as my friend jokes whenever they see me: blue hair and pronouns

rapid merlin
#

It was black for years but I wanted a colour closer to my natural colour

knotty valve
#

My natural is blonde

#

And I hate it lmao

jade oar
#

black is natural for me best

rapid merlin
#

Blonde hair is pretty though, it’s angelic

knotty valve
#

I ain't no angel KEKW

@orchid kernel my father

But is being worked on

rapid merlin
knotty valve
#

I definitely prefer the path I've made myself over how I used to be

#

I can actually go "no, I won't don't this" and can ignore most of the urges to just snap

wary ocean
#

i only snap when i get protective of someone

rapid merlin
#

The newer me is smarter, observant, cunning. I don’t even recognise who I was a year ago from today.

knotty valve
jade oar
#

cant wait

knotty valve

Don't really want to change that

wary ocean

im not trying to change that either

rapid merlin

hope you guys dont then

knotty valve

#

My transition timeline is already insane to see 😂

#

I look nothing like I used to back in 2021

rapid merlin
#

I was literally sleeping on potential for years

#

uh huh

#

All I did was game and avoid

knotty valve
#

I'm trying to get back into art after years of going "I won't get anywhere with this"

rapid merlin
#

Now all I do is think of ways to progress

knotty valve
#

For my tattoo artist to straight up go "Don't do that! You're really good"

rapid merlin
#

Art is great because it’s expressive

knotty valve
#

Who knows, maybe five years from now I won't be in cyber and I'll be doing tattoo artistry 😅

rapid merlin
#

You never know

#

Art is all about practice, anyone can become a great artist

knotty valve
#

Yea

#

My artist already gave me tips on shading

rapid merlin
#

I love seeing artists find their style

knotty valve
#

Which is something I need to remearn

#

My preference is floral

#

Which is why so many of my tattoos are floral

#

And insects too

rapid merlin
#

I know there was websites where you could view 3D models to study lighting, would help you shade

knotty valve
#

This where I'm trying to get back to

#

My old artwork from 2018

rapid merlin
#

Very pretty

knotty valve
#

It has a lot of inconsistencies

#

But oh well

#

I'll get around to doing better

jade oar
#

to many meaning behind it in my opinion

patent falcon
#

whats up evil people, i got a fucking question, "Where we can find reflected xss? Sometimes in http headers (but in practice they are unlikely exploitable in pratice)" Why is we likely cant exploit xss in http headers? they cant contain large amount of data?

jade oar
#

time to study uni stuff then finish pre secuirty tdy we love to see it

knotty valve
knotty valve
#

If I was to leave it unfiltered, then a webUI that uses that API would have arbitrary HTML added to it

#

It's reflected from an RSS feed I use

patent falcon
knotty valve
#

Mainly cause in headers your aim is to stage it

#

You'll use RXSS to trigger CSRF/XSRF

patent falcon
#

hm

#

i need to study more i see

knotty valve
#

On its own headers are virtually redundant unless they're parsing and executing cookies

#

At least that's how it generally should be, and you should've be executing any headers anyway

patent falcon
#

what level are u?

knotty valve
#

My THM level doesn't reflect my knowledge

patent falcon
#

have you ever find a real vuln or exploit?

knotty valve
#

Many yeah

#

I was talking to Jabba quite a few hours ago about one I found in cisco

#

Others I can't disclose who they belonged to, but they're mainly OpSec/OSINT (things that disclose information there shouldn't be, for example), MFA side channels, incorrect rate limit enforcement, etc.

#

Keep in mind, I specialise in OSINT/OPSEC, but on defence and not offence

patent falcon
#

i study math at uni, but since a teenager i like to do some boxes or learn some rooms in thm, can i ever came up with a zero-day or find web vulns without the academic background in cs?

knotty valve
#

Absolutely lol

patent falcon
#

in significant targets

knotty valve
#

I found my cisco vulnerability while studying a networking certificate

#

It was only applicable to local/adjacent network, but it was a complete lose in integrity

#

Finding vulns is half of just doing things in ways that the system shouldn't be doing, if you want to do XSS on a search bar, try entering random HTML, does the website have query Params? Try it there, try SQL, etc.

patent falcon
#

thanks

knotty valve
#

It's mainly curiosity and doing things that the system should otherwise be denying or ignoring

rapid merlin
#

I took additional science.

knotty valve
#

And math studies can help in cryptographic security too

rapid merlin
#

Thought that would be easier

#

I thought wrong.

knotty valve
#

A lot of encryption exploits happen passively, where you're not constantly hitting the target but finding a weakness offline

patent falcon
#

thanks guys

who can use phiser

#

for email phishing Legaly

fringe nacelle
knotty valve
#

If you're practicing social engineering, I'd recommend learning that instead of tools like phisher

rapid merlin
#

I’ve never even heard of phisher

knotty valve
#

Yet another tool for mass phishing

rapid merlin
#

Yeah

knotty valve
#

Imho spear phishing works better

rapid merlin
#

I’m more a bluey

#

Not really into that stealing private information

#

Call me old fashioned 😂

knotty valve
#

Used to phish in my Blackhat days

rapid merlin
#

Never got there and never will

knotty valve
#

Mainly to distribute malware

#

Primarily ransomware

knotty valve
#

It's always a when and never an if

rapid merlin
#

I’m not into crime

knotty valve
#

I did it for fun

#

Not for personal gain

#

Which sounds weird given most attacks happen for money

rapid merlin

As an analyst you're not just waiting for an attack, you're also reviewing everything going on inside of the company, detailing reports, in times you're directing what needs to be improved and how, etc.

crystal moss
#

How are you guys today? I was just wake up..

knotty valve
#

SOC is more MSP

#

Which is more relaxed and waiting for things, but at the same time, you're constantly updating things to ensure the security is up to scratch

#

Which can involve red team operations as well

Outsourcing in the CTF will be breaching the rules of the CTF

#

It has to stay in the ground of your team and the CTF

proud grove
#

Question: Does Try Hack Me have all the knowledge that I need, or should I count on other sources, too?

knotty valve
#

Never trust it will have everything

#

knowing your sources limits and benefits will help a lot so you can find sources that cover topics that aren't in others

sick lance
#

Which CTF is it?

knotty valve
#

Generally CTF rules will be a hard no to asking for help outside of your team and hosting teams

#

Since it kinda defeats the point of having teams and being a challenge

#

Is Python enough, or shall I enter the C other than SQL and others

#

a lot of questions in mind hope you wont get bored cuz of me XD

knotty valve
#

In general, Python, JS, and SQL, and from there depends on what you're wanting to do

proud grove
#

SO the MAIN is python and JS and SQL

#

then after taht i can choose

#

noted !

knotty valve
#

those are just the most common

#

since if you decided to do vuln hunting you'll need to write PoCs and Python is just simpler to use

#

JS is mainly for web stuff, and SQL is for database testing

proud grove
#

python for scripts right ?

#

cuz its easier than other languages

knotty valve
#

if you plan to go into App Sec, C#, C++, Rust, etc. are nice to pick from but ASM will help lots in RE and binary exploitation

knotty valve
#

you can do the same with most other languages, Python is just simpler to do it in

proud grove
slow cloud
#

i started with python, still learning its pretty fun

proud grove
#

IT IS so easy and fun its like chatting

slow cloud
#

did a little bit of html js etc, its a good skillset to have for sure but not really my thing

#

id learn python, javascript and the basis for html css

#

and after that you can just see whichever language

knotty valve
#

I forgot my CIDR notations 😂

slow cloud
#

since javascript is object based which C and stuff also are iirc

knotty valve
#

JavaScript is cursed

#

everything is a string

#

Types don't actually exist in JS

slow cloud
#

idk i did the basics for a website and thats about it

#

i hate people who reply all on emails

knotty valve
#

lol

slow cloud
#

just to say "OK thanks for the info" to the whole company

Discord should add a reply-all feature

Obsidian is a naturally occurring volcanic glass formed when lava extruded from a volcano cools rapidly with minimal crystal growth. It is an igneous rock.

I've written a script that constantly searches for bounties that are new and have few participants on several different sites... Not keeping up with it right now, but done it before. Making the really heavy findings can be difficult of course, but the reward is good when / if you make a really good find!

# knotty valve Since it's still there, I wonder if they'll reuse them

They did with Advent of Cyber 2024. Ive earned 9 streak freeze days and they removed the ability to have more than 1 (which was only possible through these tickets anyway) after a while. The other reward i got was to change my level into something akward, happy it reverted back to my default when advent ended because i activated it without knowing what it does 🥳

The tickets page has stuff you unlocked with the Cyber 101 path.

Not Advent of Cyber.

Advent of Cyber tickets were assigned to your account on the backend, as a raffle.
