[scenic kiln]

good for u

i think this one’s better

i graduated early so hopefully i get a head start on all that sht

[echo sentinel]

Welcome aboard and prepare for constant learning

[scenic kiln]

thankfully i love evolving knowledge

[echo sentinel]

Then this field is perefect for you

[scenic kiln]

im excited

[rapid merlin]

well well well

ai will take over jobs they say

[steady pewter]

maybe..not?

[echo sentinel]

What room is that btw? Overall whole campaign sounds kinda interesting
https://cert.pl/posts/2024/05/apt28-kampania/
(You'd need to use auto-translate to read it)

[rapid merlin]

new one
https://tryhackme.com/room/apt28inceptiontheory

[echo sentinel]

Oh okay, I did not have a chance to look at it yet - Guess you've motivated me lol

[last bluff]

are there any issue with annual payments?

i try to see how much it cost to buy annual subs but it says error 500

[copper ravine]

#site-support

[rapid merlin]

okay its not only poland

[echo sentinel]

yeah, I was just also reading that report from CERT Poland and they don't really mention what was exactly compromised - just that there was such campaign

[rapid merlin]

there are also czechia and germany

I swear if I lived in America I would be a full raccoon

[echo sentinel]

Yup, as well as a couple of international organizations

[static perch]

Question: I have 9 snapshots of my kali VM, Is it okay If I delete first few ?

[boreal scarab]

Well, we don't know what's on em

[static perch]

It was like freshly installed and transfered few files from another vm
Will I loose those files ?

This is my snapshots structure

[rapid merlin]

i just created 3 snapshots to test, its structure was like yours, i deleted snapshot1 and 2 with 3 stayed

i just thought if you would delete snapshot 2 every snapshot under there would be deleted

[rapid merlin]

Hold up I got size 5 feet

[rapid merlin]

I’ve never see that before 👁️👄👁️ wide ah toes

They look like they’ve worn flip flops for too long

[static perch]

I trust you, I'll delete first 4 and If I got my files deleted I might sue you 😁

[stoic quarry]

https://tenor.com/view/caught-in4k-4k-camera-caught-sus-gif-20846600

Me taking snapshots

[rapid merlin]

That’s how I take notes

[stoic quarry]

Just screenshot that thang and slap it into a markdown file

I'd argue it's better to rewrite in your own words 😶‍🌫️

[stark sequoia]

hi everyone!

hows everyone doing?

[rapid merlin]

If someone tells me something on discord I just screenshot and then forget about it 😆

Long lost screenshot, just like the “watch later” YouTube videos

[sand trench]

use bandcamp
use beets
have fun

[stoic quarry]

Doing well! You?

[rapid merlin]

real

dont remember if i actually watched videos from there

[stoic quarry]

I think I had like... >1000 videos on my watch later at one point

[rapid merlin]

maybe once

[stark sequoia]

same, just chilling and doing some reading

[stoic quarry]

Whatcha reading

[stark sequoia]

convex optimization by stephen boyd 💀

[stoic quarry]

Sounds intense

[stark sequoia]

yeah im trying to wrap my head around it its very abstract maths

[stoic quarry]

Too intense for me

I'll stick to reading fantasy books next to some stone castle thing

It was fun : )

[stark sequoia]

what type of fantasy books? I usually listen to some audiobooks

[stoic quarry]

Some Brandon Sanderson gig

[stark sequoia]

ahhh nice nice

[stark sequoia]

this looks really cool ngl

what a great spot to chill at

[stoic quarry]

It was very chill

[rapid merlin]

I don’t think I’ve ever gone back to watch them

[rapid merlin]

I don’t even know how many videos were in mine 😅

[soft sable]

just finished presec! was quite easy must say, proceeding w cyber sec 101

[stark sequoia]

nice! i have 2 rooms left to finish presec

[halcyon dune]

🤌

[last harbor]

I need premium ngl

How to enter the giveaway?

[sick lance]

Not for vouchers, no.

[runic ocean]

Man, is there anyway I can pay for support, someone to assist me with learning cyber security, I really want to learn this and I won't give up until I at least learn the basics of this.

[stoic quarry]

Like a mentor? There are some communities where mentorship is more the focus than here

[runic ocean]

Yes, please.

Do you recommend any?

[stoic quarry]

I can't recall sorry, but if you do a search on whatever social media you have for mentorship programs you might find something.

Also just follow public personas and see what they post, if they aim their content at beginners it's even better

[stark sequoia]

honestly, you dont need a private tutor

[stoic quarry]

Network Chuck, John Hammond... Others I'm sure, they won't mentor you personally but keeping up with the stuff they post is a good way to get in initially

[stark sequoia]

you can learn it all yourself, most people are self taught

[stoic quarry]

They asked for someone to help 1:1, but I agree lol

Don't feel bad if it takes time to complete one CTF or room on THM, as long as you understand it

[stark sequoia]

yep struggle is part of the journey

if you're really willing to put in the effort, you'll get through it

[stoic quarry]

No pain no gain

That's why I only eat rotten food, I'll get gains soon!!

Right?

[stark sequoia]

surely xD

[zenith kelp]

How's job search going for y'all

[sand trench]

so your diet consists of:
surströmming
kimchi
cheese
vinegar
alcohol

[upper knoll]

your best use of your funds and "mentorship" is learning how to learn individually and grow and sign up for a THM subscription and put time and energy into on your own no one will be able to teach it for you until you first put the effort in yourself.

[stark sequoia]

W AD

[upper knoll]

i went to uni for cyber sec didnt finish and felt like i learnt nothing last year i decided to take it into my own hands im level 12 on THM with a 194 day streak and never more knowledgable grow yourself

[zenith kelp]

Any luck in the market?

[upper knoll]

im not really looking

[stark sequoia]

im not into cybersec as a job but i hear theres many positions open

[upper knoll]

it really depends its not as easy of a field to just get into as people sometimes put out

hard work dedication and the right connections will get you far

[stoic quarry]

Blue cheese, yes

[zenith kelp]

Any ideas for something to do along side maybe sde

[stark sequoia]

actually connections is the most important thing in the world that us nerds typically neglect

[zenith kelp]

For job

[stoic quarry]

Do CTFS, write blogposts, set up a homelab and install an EDR

[upper knoll]

ive got some good friends in cyber sec from uni actually and i do my best to network when i can its always important to show others you are willing to listen grow and learn in this field

[stoic quarry]

Then write blog posts about it. You can show that on your CV and prove you're competent without having a job

[upper knoll]

or other home based projects anything to stand out!

[stoic quarry]

Ye ye ye

[stark sequoia]

and a cool personal website ofc

for swag points

[upper knoll]

i got to do that at some point but i suck at web coding

[zenith kelp]

That's good and all but the problem is there aren't many Openings here

[upper knoll]

where is here? also you can always look into the channel #cyber-and-careers and ask for more specific advice for your region

lots of knowledgable people in there

[zenith kelp]

Ok

[stoic quarry]

I just have a basic template lol

But it works

I think

[stark sequoia]

still works yeah, people usually cant tell if its well done

[stoic quarry]

I just wanna edit .md files, not tear my hair out with CSS

[upper knoll]

exactly why ive avoided it

[stark sequoia]

CSS is an art form lol, you gotta get creative with it

someone made the mona lisa entirely in CSS

[upper knoll]

im not creative xd

[stoic quarry]

My website is readable and usable, that's all I need

[stark sequoia]

yeah doesnt need to be fancy

[stoic quarry]

Happy to send a link if anyone is interested

[stark sequoia]

sure

[tough island]

Bruh why write me I'm never online in this

[stoic quarry]

Lmao

Are they sneaching though?

[tough island]

How far down did he scroll to end up writing me?

[upper knoll]

typically its best to just send a ss of that to a mod

[grim sparrow]

:hammer: lysos0872_39707#0 has been banned.

[tough island]

Cant Catch me Sneaching

[stoic quarry]

Big ups Jabba

[upper knoll]

jabba is the best

we love jabba here

[tough island]

Well, that was fun. Good night yall

[upper knoll]

rest well

[stoic quarry]

The bot of Jabba 😭

[modest charm]

you snEACHed on him

[upper knoll]

that is a new word i wont lie

[stoic quarry]

We out here creating words

[desert shuttle]

Send the link

[sand trench]

welp time for this shadow whadow to go meep moops to the beep boops for the sleeps sloops

[upper knoll]

rest well shadow

[zenith kelp]

May I ask what inspired your deep interest in cybersecurity over other fields? Or do you hold a similar passion for other domains as well?

[upper knoll]

me personally my brain kind is super logical sees patterns like not many others can so when it comes to offence or defence i pick up on things very quickly giving me a natural advantage and ive always loved technology so seemed like a path to take also i thrive on challange and solutions im driven when given a problem to solve it.

[stark sequoia]

when I was a kid I was into programming a lot. Can't remember when exactly but i also got into hacking and liked doing CTFs and other internet puzzles like ARGs just for fun, i liked the mental challenge

Then up until second year UNI i was into cybersec but then I completely switched my career to AI as i found it more interesting and it gave me a new perspective

[zenith kelp]

That's inspiring

Thanks, both of you

[upper knoll]

happy to share

[zenith kelp]

I am rn in my 2nd year too

And the job market is giving me headache and all

2 more years and the uni barrier protecting me will also going to disappear

[upper knoll]

youll have the advantage of a degree by the end though

[stark sequoia]

nah dont worry you'll find a job

[upper knoll]

and a lot can change in two years

[zenith kelp]

That's true

[upper knoll]

just do your best to grow and prove yourself in that time

[stark sequoia]

4 years uni? are you doing an internship then?

[zenith kelp]

Engineering

[stark sequoia]

oh, so no internship? it helps if you have the option to do it

[zenith kelp]

I have done an unpaid one

[stark sequoia]

oh then you are good to go

most important thing for employers is experience

[zenith kelp]

After exams I will be looking for internships, again

This time paid ones too, i hope

[upper knoll]

i wish you luck

[zenith kelp]

Thanks

Good luck to both of you too

[upper knoll]

[zenith kelp]

For your future endeavours

After they changed the rendering system last year 😡

[gusty inlet]

Oh yeah now you're limited to how much chars it shows. You got it down to the last allowed one lol.

Hm?

Oh, I meant my THM profile

Quick question. How to become a community mentor?

[pallid lotus]

It's just something I threw together after James doxxed me with my old one

[last harbor]

And a community legend?

[last harbor]

Who’s James and how he doxed u if u don’t mind telling

[pallid lotus]

Rule #1 -- never ask to be a community mentor

It used to be a case of one of the existing volunteers nominating someone, then the rest voting.

Considering the volunteer system has slightly, uh, imploded, I don't know how it will work going forward

[last harbor]

Oh

[last harbor]

Alr

[pallid lotus]

That's for ex staff

[gusty inlet]

Basically, not everyone can be Muiri.

[last harbor]

Oooh

[last harbor]

Indeed

[pallid lotus]

Eh, actually, ex staff / ex volunteers. They merged them into one role.

[last harbor]

Hmm

[last harbor]

And how to become a staff member?

[gusty inlet]

Have you had a look at the CETP certification?

[gusty inlet]

#jobs-board apply at THM.

[last harbor]

Tyyy

[shut hawk]

You must answer 3 questions

[gusty inlet]

I'm now curious.

[shut hawk]

What is your name?

What is your quest?

[last harbor]

What type of hacker u r?

These all?

[shut hawk]

And what is the air-speed velocity of an unladen swallow?

[last harbor]

I was talking about being a discord staff

[gusty inlet]

#mod-application

[last harbor]

Bro just slide in his physics test question

W way to cheat

[last harbor]

Hmm

[pallid lotus]

Nah, been focused on offsec for a while. Back to zps now I've run out of offsec. Then my pdp is a bunch of cloud, container, and iac stuff for the rest of the year.
I keep hearing about altered security though, so might need to take a look.

[gusty inlet]

Altered is for CRTP/CRTE, the rest is mid.

For ZPS you're goinf for RTL right? (RTO II)

[pallid lotus]

Aye

Is CETP not altered?

[gusty inlet]

100% altered, but a brand new cert - I'm still asking around for feedback.

[pallid lotus]

Ah, gotcha

[gusty inlet]

Course is still on a rolling basis.

[pallid lotus]

Fair

Yeah, will see how it compares to OSEP and CRTL at some point 😆

[gusty inlet]

Looks sick though!

[gusty inlet]

Would love to hear that feedback.

[rapid merlin]

I’m working on that gameboy project but I think I need to cut this out. It’s so awkward, do micro saws exist ? 😅

Just the middle part

[cursive bobcat]

lol try a stanly blade. might be able to shave it out

[pallid lotus]

Circle the bit you need to cut out?

Best bet might be a Dremel

[rapid merlin]

Ah yes a dremel, that’s a shout. I’m going to try that

Thank you

[pallid lotus]

Np

[rapid merlin]

Now I’ve just got to find a screen that would actually fit

Have screens always been measured diagonally 🤔

[winged nimbus]

why does fake docker packages from ms store show up in winget

[shy vortex]

seems more of a side hustle or so

[last harbor]

Ik many people who live off it but it’s pure gamble

[knotty valve]

The people who live off it usually stick to a set few companies, from what I've seen

[blissful snow]

I live off of it, I make 0$ to 0$ a day.

[knotty valve]

I make between 0-500 every month

Depends on if I'm actively doing it or not

I'm kinda glad I haven't found anything critical in a while, because that means companies aren't doing things in obviously stupid ways

[dreamy zealot]

i do it for fun

[knotty valve]

This was me on monday

Why

You could ask that here lol

[gritty fern]

Linux on tha router

[knotty valve]

OpenWrt my beloved

[gritty fern]

for realll

[knotty valve]

Also looks like a modem and not a router lol

Afaik routers don't have wireless comms

[gritty fern]

I mix them up constantly lol

Yeah its a modem

[knotty valve]

Unless that's changed which is possible

Cause my firewall has wireless comms

[knotty valve]

Dw I still mix up hubs and switches 😂

[gritty fern]

I actually get faster internet too after configuring it

[gritty fern]

[sinful moon]

to be fair a router can be a wireless or just wired one. A Modem would for sure be the actual ISP interconnect device which is demodulating your coax or whatever signals

[knotty valve]

You wouldn't believe I have a CCNA

[gritty fern]

Yeah this is a modem then lol

[knotty valve]

Didn't know they came with wireless nowadays

[safe oxide]

[sinful moon]

Only because ISPs are pushing to control all of your home network as well and pushing modem + router things

[knotty valve]

I see router, and think either big rack thing or something like an NBN FTTP

[sinful moon]

That is just a plain router above

[quasi hedge]

Any ideas why they try and normally keep control of home networks?

[knotty valve]

It's an Eepy Link* smh

[sinful moon]

ecosystem and locking down your shit for their benefit

[quasi hedge]

Yeah, but what benefit?

[sinful moon]

plus if they have your wifi and you don’t use your own, they usually resell it as value add for other customers

[knotty valve]

Keeping you locked to their contract, monitoring what you do, etc.

Various reasons

[quasi hedge]

Oh yeah, like xfinity now

[sinful moon]

If you stick to ISP wifi, yeah usually another user of that same ISP can use it via a captive portal

[knotty valve]

My ISP can't see shit on my network

Other than well

I'm connected

And what gateway I'm using

[sinful moon]

they just want control they don’t need, even if the ISP provided modem is also a router, disable that stuff and use your own

[quasi hedge]

Yeah, now it makes more sense. My ISP had it enabled by default, and took me an call to disable it because of a "technical issue" with disabling their captive portal thing via the app.

[sinful moon]

now down stream from my cablem modem yes I do actually have a non-wireless router as my main thing, but thats also because I have three dedicated APs

[knotty valve]

Yeah I don't need three aps

Cause I have smallish house

So just the one gives full coverage

[sinful moon]

we likely don’t either, although the third does help with reception in the detatched garage

but I inhereted those when my SO finally let me manage the network and admitted defeat lol

[knotty valve]

Our garage is basically a Faraday

I get at most, one bar of 4G on my phone

[sinful moon]

Ah ouch, besides the concret, yeah ours isn’t bad, the AP in the kitchen covers it well

[knotty valve]

Yet we live legitimately like 1km away from one of the towers

[quasi hedge]

Also kind of depends on your phone's receiver, not just the tower.

[knotty valve]

Works great for me when I'm wanting to mess with wireless comms with minimal interference

[knotty valve]

Receiver is perfectly fine

[sinful moon]

we live across the street from a Middle School so this is a very well connected and redundantly supplied area

[knotty valve]

Just the garage blocks a lot of stuff unintentionally

[sinful moon]

lol we’re thankfully in the back, slightly away from that traffic

replying to my own concerns, not your garage stuff lol

[knotty valve]

Yea

I figured lol

[blissful pulsar]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-hello-chat-funny-annoying-gif-8664986189922990414

[sinful moon]

yeah we have a 50s starter home so while decently built it thankfully doesn’t block a lot of RF, even the pretty concrete garage

[safe oxide]

Hallo

[blissful pulsar]

he

[fathom glacier]

Hii

[knotty valve]

Ah yes, the irony

[tight trout]

gmornin

[blissful pulsar]

its 9 pm

;-;

[sinful moon]

yes or that WSJ article or whatever about how giving out your email is a huge scam, while they actively ask for the same

[storm storm]

7h54 am now

[knotty valve]

Wdym you don't have 50 billion burner emails

[sinful moon]

That being said, yeah my adblocker typically blocks those

[knotty valve]

Same

I've got one specifically for pop ups but that occassionally breaks legitimate things in websites

Like CSS menu bars

[sinful moon]

Yeah mine aren’t algorithmic for the most part but explicitly block list created

[knotty pendant]

https://tenor.com/view/pibble12-pibble-frenchie-mulch-gif-1096860751149709460

[sinful moon]

anyways was just checking in and happy to see the OpenWRT. Used to run that and dd-wrt for years on routers, but yeah lol I’m running a Unifi house now 🙃

can spend that cash when you administrate them professionally

[knotty valve]

Personally running a cisco isr as a router

[quasi hedge]

Why does it seem like everybody starts out with openwrt and eventually goes to unifi

[knotty valve]

And some cheap access point

[sinful moon]

Don’t they like brick them if you don’t pay a sub?

[knotty valve]

Nop

They just lock their fancy features

[sinful moon]

hmm it was some Cisco networking gear that did

[knotty valve]

They usually only brick if they think you've messed with it in a way that breaches the contract

[sand jacinth]

oye

[sinful moon]

Fair enough but yeah not worth it to me

[fast moth]

https://tenor.com/view/wolf-of-wall-street-leonardo-dicaprio-speech-mad-angry-gif-16143434

[sinful moon]

haha classic

[knotty valve]

Not paying the licence for the fancy schmancy advanced firewall and AV stuff they couldn't care about

[sinful moon]

No this was basic networking functionality

[knotty valve]

Given they literally hand out the ISOs for free

Or well "free" you do have to sign up/login to download it ethically

[knotty valve]

They don't really care too much about that side of things

Mainly just inter-proprietary jank with HP, and their more advanced firmware stuff

[sinful moon]

Fair I’m no expert on Cisco, only a tinsey bit of knowledge about the Meraki ones but I swear I heard something that just would absolutely cripple a device if it was unpaid

[knotty valve]

Meraki was the ones they used to brick all the time, yeah

ISR, Catalyst, etc. they don't give two shits about

[sinful moon]

Came up professionally, but yeah we don’t do Cisco tech, mainly see it from payment processors who force them or others

[knotty valve]

I can see why they block meraki

It's cloud

Lmao

[sinful moon]

lol if you’re at a restaurant and you see two Unifi APs way too close together, one of them is connected to a Cisco Meraki router and the Toast PCI network

[knotty valve]

Didn't remember if it was meraki or some other line that was cloud managed

[sinful moon]

to be fair Unifi has a similar concept but you can just self host that stuff as I do

they may be managed, but they’re full on routers and do the thing unabated

[knotty valve]

All their cloud managed systems they require licensing for, but everything else that's either self-managed or admin managed they couldn't give two shits if it's just for networking

Which I get, but also F

[knotty valve]

Yea I just use whatever works for my needs and what I'm familiar with 😂

[sinful moon]

yeah unfortunate

to your previous statement

[knotty valve]

As much as people give cisco shit
They generally Just Work™

[sinful moon]

But sure, I do some research but did land on Unifi/Ubiquity, despite years of custom router firmware use myself

but fair I do have experience from work which influenced that

[knotty valve]

Yea

My work uses Unifi

[sinful moon]

but lol the Gateway Max router I got, was same price as any premium consumer model anyways

[knotty valve]

Last workplace used HP, Unifi, and Cisco and a bit of Starlink

[ivory oasis]

yup

[knotty valve]

This sounds suspicious as hell

And most likely unapproved by THM too

[sinful moon]

Yeah I’m not going to mini-mod but sounds like self promotion. You’re like dangling a stick with a reward which is worse

[tight trout]

"Come check out my thing and if you do you might get something" is self promotion i believe

[knotty valve]

It gives the "just login into this site, it's safe bro, trust me" vibes

[sinful moon]

lol

[tight trout]

Rule 3 be like

[knotty valve]

THM sending me a welcome email 2 weeks after re-subscribing

Perfect timing

[sinful moon]

Sadly all my fave mods look busy but I’ll do a quick @mossy river and @hasty sand to take a look above if they’re able c:

[round onyx]

Goodo morning everynyan

[sinful moon]

also lol not saying these people are not my fave mods, they’re just busy as well lol

[knotty valve]

Idk why but I always feel bad to ping the mods

[tight trout]

No scrubz 😔

[sinful moon]

nah Scrubz would be way up there but 0day is at least online but away

[mossy river]

Why does this discussion take place over 6 hours

[knotty valve]

Like ik it's their job and we should poke them when needed but anxiety go brrr

[knotty valve]

LOL

[tight trout]

social anxiety when i need to talk to people

[knotty valve]

Literally

[sinful moon]

lol, it’s actually not too far above for the rewarding of watching a channel

[mossy river]

Please don’t promote your Discord server here or perform unauthorised giveaways without the approval of the community manager

[knotty valve]

I thought it was unapproved

[tight trout]

i am so okay to just like ramble about my special interests but the moment i need to do anything productive that involves another person i just... eaugh

[mossy river]

I missed that part and went hunting into yesterday for context 🤣

[sinful moon]

No worries, and thanks!

[mossy river]

It’s 2am and I’m writing my diss so bare with my lack of brain cells

[knotty valve]

This was me yesterday talking about my last job to my partner 😂

[sinful moon]

Nice! lol I regret bothering you but I know how it is as a mod myself

[mossy river]

And please wish me luck because I’m three energy drinks down and the most productive part was where I stared at a blank wall for 30 minutes

[sinful moon]

whew you can do it!

[mossy river]

Ahah, don’t worry about it, if I’m around I’ll respond

[knotty valve]

Went on a full on tangent about how tedious and bs it was to setup network gear on a big ship

[rapid merlin]

do i need a 3d printer to learn cyber security and hacking?

[river meteor]

hi

[knotty valve]

Why would you need a 3D printer for hacking?

[tight trout]

nope!

[knotty valve]

What

[tight trout]

mornin

[rapid merlin]

ok

[river meteor]

i was new to coding

[rapid merlin]

i was joking ofc

[river meteor]

morning

[rapid merlin]

[knotty valve]

I mean if you want to 3D print the mapping of computer memory then sure

[mossy river]

3d print a clone of me so i can go to sleep pls and tank u

[knotty valve]

Lmao

[sinful moon]

I actually can’t think of a single thing that 3D printing would help with infosec wise other than physical security

[tight trout]

nonono, the clone sleeps for you :3

[knotty valve]

IoT moment

[mossy river]

In what bed? Brother can sleep on the floor smh

[river meteor]

how to start and where to learn python

[rapid merlin]

3d print a bed so i can sleep next to you

[knotty valve]

If it's wireless you could possibly try and find a way to turn the device into something usable to move across a network

[sinful moon]

So many ways, there’s tons of resources, heck even on TryHackMe

[mossy river]

[scenic kiln]

hey so should i learn python or another language before diving deep into cybersecurity or is it not necessary yet?

[tight trout]

learn it as you go

[sinful moon]

the internet is like overflowing with python guides and tutorials

[river meteor]

can you help me

[tight trout]

you'll figure out if you need it as much as you think you do or not

[scenic kiln]

ok, just python or other things too

[river meteor]

others too

[sinful moon]

python is super simple, just learn from resources online

[knotty valve]

Python and JS are pretty helpful overall, since JS would help in some webapp testing cases

[river meteor]

can i text you directly in discord

[knotty valve]

But that's all stuff you'd learn as you go

[sinful moon]

advance to more advanced topics as you need

[tight trout]

everything, the important bit to is keep an open mind and try to learn at least something about everything you dont understand

[sinful moon]

the sunglasses in his name is getting me every time

[scenic kiln]

got it

[queen flare]

python overflow

[knotty valve]

Ikr

[queen flare]

[river meteor]

just now i was staring to learn coding

[sinful moon]

to be frank, literally just google and you’re set for months or years

[river meteor]

ok

[knotty valve]

Learning how to google is extremely useful

[tight trout]

python itself has an official tutorial

[knotty valve]

Then you get to brag that you can google better than someone else

[river meteor]

ok bro i will try after my ap eamcet exam

[sinful moon]

working in IT is often a lot of googling and reading docs lol

[tight trout]

hey, you need to ask before you dm someone

[river meteor]

ok

[knotty valve]

Ever had to manually implement AES cause your workplace is extremely paranoid?

That's been my job for the last three weeks

[queen flare]

@river meteor there are tons of resources for learning python on the internet, a lot of them being free
no one is going to hold your hand in IT or cybersecurity
building a habit of learning things on your own is the best skill you'd ever gain for learning cybersec

[knotty valve]

I'm hating life so far

[round onyx]

The amount of shit that isn't supposed to be searchable is concerning

[knotty valve]

I never want to touch AES again

[sinful moon]

lol

[queen flare]

just pick something and start learning
if then, you don't understand something or get questions, ask them here or in other forums

[knotty valve]

It really is

[shy vortex]

facts

[sinful moon]

so so so many Amazon S3 buckets lol

[shy vortex]

nahhh fr lmao shit be weird

[knotty valve]

PII, S3 Buckets, API keys, credentials, you name it

[tight trout]

i was listening to a darknet diaries episode about some pentesters that found an open AWS bucket that a bank was using to store images of checks

[queen flare]

so i have a friend, who uses qubes os for daily driving

and uses vbox in qubes

inside that windows

inside that discord

[knotty valve]

There's a police department that hard coded their AWS creds into their website 😭

[sinful moon]

Yep unfortunately sounds nothing out too out of the ordinary unfortunately

[knotty valve]

It's since been removed

Thankfully

[sinful moon]

and lol vibe coding is making this way worse and potentially much better for us

depending on where you fall on defense/offense

[tight trout]

not as bad as the PII leak of like SSNs and stuff were hardcoded into the webpage that happened in Indiana? Missouri? and the researcher was threatened with jail time

[queen flare]

did you mean aws?

[knotty valve]

I mean AES

[queen flare]

whats wrong with aes

[knotty valve]

After having spent three weeks writing math into code

[queen flare]

oh nevermind

hate aes

[knotty valve]

With no external libraries other than the C++ STL

I never want to touch cryptography again

Especially AES

[queen flare]

yes, you have every right to hate

[knotty valve]

[sinful moon]

That’s a weird lesson for any Uni or similar to teach just because like implementing your own version of any auth is typically highly not recommended lolol

[knotty valve]

This is for work

[sinful moon]

I mean I do get it teaches you how it works but

uhhh

what

[queen flare]

i think both will boom
in defense u get to fix more stuff making u more valuable and in offense u get to break more stuff

[knotty valve]

Head of Cyber Defence tasked my team and one of the software engineering teams to rewrite our cryptography stuff to be supply chainless

[queen flare]

more vibecoders, better job market for cybersec lol

[sinful moon]

that sounds deranged

[tight trout]

https://www.nbcnews.com/tech/security/miss-gov-calls-prosecution-journalist-tipped-state-website-flaw-rcna3029

Viewing the HTML source code on the site revealed teachers’ names and their Social Security numbers, Renaud wrote, and he contacted three teachers to verify that the numbers were authentic.
•_•

[sinful moon]

even if congrats on the position

[knotty valve]

It's uhh yeah-

[sinful moon]

you have now invoked new potential vulnerabilities and more that are unique to your product with significantly less oversight

[knotty valve]

Not even my threat matrix for supply chains is that messed up

[tight trout]

"dont roll your own crypto" was how i learned it

[queen flare]

why not just use one of the many open source stuff that's already proven their worth

[knotty valve]

Yeah same

[sinful moon]

which lol isn’t a slight to your programming abilities, just a fact of life

[knotty valve]

We do have our own crypto that's basically acting as initial auth and isn't meant to actually "protect"

Similar to GPG signing keys essentially

[sinful moon]

that is just like the most insane reaction to supply chain threats and etc that I have ever heard

[knotty valve]

Oh I'm not offended lmao, even I think it's stupid

[sinful moon]

Indeed my condolences, but indeed at some time you just gotta do what keeps you gainfully employed at the end of the day

[knotty valve]

I'm 100% expecting there to be weird side channel attacks or some weird space bug or an improper verification somewhere by the end of it

[whole yew]

https://tenor.com/view/doing-the-math-thinking-gif-6813854106254751879

[sinful moon]

to be fair side channel is like an extremely advanced threat but yeah the latter? Yeah we won’t talk about it lol

[knotty valve]

Ironically the best gif for this convo

[whole yew]

Every year there are 3 or 4 articles about how a company decided to not use a well known public crypto library (such as the openssl projects) and get compromised from an improperly implemented algorithm

[whole yew]

*unironically. I am a genius of GIF selection

[knotty valve]

We may be one of them eventually

[sinful moon]

hah yeah I just really hope you all aren’t one of them indeed

[tight trout]

o7

[knotty valve]

I'm just hoping I'm not with the company when it happens

[whole yew]

Every homebrew crypto library ends up in the pile of shame

[knotty valve]

I'm not dealing with that shitshow

[sinful moon]

real vibes

[whole yew]

It's actually to your benefit if you are - you cannot be held responsible, especially if you have it on the record that you think the best way forward is with a known and well-tested library

you get to do the "i told you so" dance, and you get the extremely valuable experience of fixing the disaster

[sinful moon]

well nuanced take I had not considered

[knotty valve]

Didn't think of that either 😅

[whole yew]

This is why i manage a SOC, elizabeth

Opportunities for free learning need to be taken advantage of. And never be afraid to do something stupid that someone else is responsible for

[sinful moon]

lol totally fair. I technically do as well… outsourced

[whole yew]

You waiver it, documenting your concerns and why it's a bad idea, and when they sign off on it doing it the stupid way, you have the archived chain of them claiming responsibility

Then you do it their way and wait for the sky to fall

it's legit how risk acceptance and management works

[knotty valve]

True

I just don't want to be sitting in that meeting when everything blows up

[whole yew]

that's the best place to be

because it's not your fuck up

[sinful moon]

Too bad if you work at a company as small as my own, yeah it’s hard to get these concerns out so directly in work correspondence… lol unless Teams counts 🙃

[rapid merlin]

I think pimeyes just called me a cat fish

[whole yew]

teams does count

[knotty valve]

Oh I know, but stressful

[whole yew]

you can audit the message history of teams

[sinful moon]

Fair enough then

[whole yew]

it's realy not.... because it's not your fire

[tight trout]

girl i get stressed watching other peoples fires half the time

[knotty valve]

Same lmao

[rapid merlin]

Berrise was typing

[sinful moon]

Because yeah it’s just often do what boss says on x day of the week to ensure I get paid, despite my compunctions

[whole yew]

you told them the house would go up in flames if they wanted you to do X, because here are the list of reasons X is a bad idea. X causes the house to set on fire. You can be the dog in the 1st panel and just chill. "This is fine" really means "this is not my problem to fix"

[whole yew]

And it's not, because you are not the decision maker that decided X had the go-ahead regardless of the risk

[knotty valve]

Not sure if the team has actually said anything officially than just "why?"

[sinful moon]

lol now that sounds like my business

[knotty valve]

But yeah, I'll bring it up tmrw with them

[whole yew]

The reasons behind it don't matter. The department head telling you to do is the one on the block because he's directing the work. Need to get it in writing that the team has concerns about doing it that way, get it in emails and in the message log that it's a known problem. Then you do it anyway because you aren't the one responsible for holding that risk

[blazing granite]

it sounds like most of the business that aren't neto tech, but have a tech department 😂

[brittle lynx]

So is a red team cert coming

[tight trout]

gotta love having to submit code on some random website that your instructor found out there

[knotty valve]

Indeed

[sinful moon]

whew my employers are an MSP lol

[brittle lynx]

I wonder if its RED red , or just pentesting red

[knotty valve]

I'm assuming pen testing

[sinful moon]

Yeah fun teaser, we shall see

[blazing granite]

even worst 😛

[sinful moon]

lol

CEO is my boss vibes

[brittle lynx]

In the blue team it was free for blue teamers, so the red team cert can i get a free one cause im a red teamer

[knotty valve]

@whole yew thanks for the insights btw 🩶

[twin ridge]

Gave +1 Rep to @whole yew (current: #11 - 840)

[river carbon]

Hello everyone ^^

[tight trout]

did i miss something lol

[tight trout]

hullo

[knotty valve]

For which part

[tight trout]

new cert?

[knotty valve]

Me thanking Juun or the cert thing?

[sinful moon]

yeah that’s just speculation on a teaser we got via email and etc

cert wise

[knotty valve]

#announcements teases it

Think it was that channel anyway

[whole yew]

Honestly, I've never been given a straight answer if the THM cert exams are proctored.

[sinful moon]

could just be a new path which I think is more likely

[whole yew]

If they aren't proctored to prevent cheating, the actual marketplace value for employers as a baseline of competency is going to be on the low end.

[knotty valve]

Either or, they're both nice to have

[sinful moon]

yeah I remember that coming up in chat, for the worse

[whole yew]

One of the reasons CompTIA is widely recognized is the standard of exam rigor they set, even if they are ridiculous multiple choice questions.

[blazing granite]

I remember people asking if they could use chat gpt for the cert 😂

[knotty valve]

Lmfao what

[sinful moon]

a user asked if the test was open book and it ended up they were using AI and it started like an hours long debate

yep literally that

[knotty valve]

Why not just study for the cert instead relying on an LLM

[whole yew]

My understanding is that the answers are graded by AI, so I think using AI to answer the questions is just as legit

[knotty valve]

Why AI graded????

I mean it's just a regression model if it's all multiple choice

But like

Why

[blazing granite]

What's the point of sit for a cert if ai will do the "heavy lifting"

[sinful moon]

Meanwhile I did actually finally have a good use for AI, “please write a professional sounding paragraph about [X] company, they are a partner of ours and I need it for my business’s partner portal page”

while they needed editing, the marketing friendly copy text did write its self with some additional light prompting and human editing

[knotty valve]

My latest use of AI was using it to just change text patterns

Then went through and verified it was still correct on all the information

Which surprisingly it was, so I wasn't expecting that

[sinful moon]

lol one example I can give for Lenovo, “talk about IBM and think-pads please”

We’re mainly Dell suppliers but for whatever reason, the company wants to move away

[blazing granite]

the use of ai in the younger generation is alarming, it looks like ai has replace their brain 😂

[knotty valve]

I mean, I'm building one

For behavioural analysis

[sinful moon]

yeah for real this is my second use of AI in two years professionally, I struggle to think of a good use for it most of the time

[knotty valve]

Outside of legitimate ML/AI research, summarising a set of notes, or simplifying complex topics, it's pretty redundant in my experience

Oh and medical

[sinful moon]

my first time professionally was trying to get me to understand some insane cybersecurity insurance financial stipulations that I didn’t understand (which I did provide a disclaimer anyways as I would have without, I am not an expert on this topic)

[knotty valve]

The use of ML in things like MRIs is amazing

[sinful moon]

indeed

[knotty valve]

We also use it in patient monitors for heart monitoring

Iirc that one works specifically off heat mapping

[sinful moon]

Oh fair enough

inb4 you work at the same health care tech company as an acquaintance of mine lol

[knotty valve]

Lmaoo

I used to be a nurse lol

[sinful moon]

Totally fair, I used to do special education and then home health care, just what I kinda stumbled into after high school

[knotty valve]

Primarily psychiatric care tho

[knotty valve]

Yeah I get that lmao

I enjoyed nursing but had to stop cause it was making my mental health worse

[sinful moon]

mhmm my mom was earning her teaching degree and told me about how easy it was to get into subsitute teaching. For Special Education there’s so much need for 1:1 that yeah if you do it long enough, you just get hired professionally instead of being a sub

totally fair

Extremely rewarding jobs but unfortunately the pay is awful

[knotty valve]

Yeah I can understand that, especially with kids that can't handle change

I was one of those kids

[sinful moon]

yeah basically with the sub jobs we’d eventually get enough of a reputation to be hired out to a specific school long term, before an actual professional job

so it would just be per-semester and etc

[knotty valve]

For me, they required us to work in ER/ED before going into Psychiatric cause of obvious things but also a lot of the time you're going to end up handling patients that have been admitted for mental health reasons either for short stay or long term admission

But I kinda went from Children's/Paediatric Ward to ED to Psychiatric

[sinful moon]

Mhmm makes sense, I did actually think about getting my nursing license but ultimately didn’t stay in home health care long enough to need it

[knotty valve]

Completely fair tbh

I'm still registered for another few years

I just don't work in it anymore

[sinful moon]

well I stayed for many years but even as a state employee yeah I didn’t need to be certified, just yearly HIPAA, bloodborne pathagen, etc certs

[knotty valve]

Yea

All your basic patho, CPR, etc. certs

[sinful moon]

mhmm

[knotty valve]

It's always funny, whenever I get my blood taken I usually end up telling the pathologist how to do their job 😂

[sinful moon]

although god forbid if I actually had to do CPR, but yes I know what to do for that or choking even if terrifying lol

[knotty valve]

They'll try and take from the wrong veins at the wrong angles

[knotty valve]

What's the saying? If you didn't break ribs, you're not doing it hard enough

[sinful moon]

lol my mom does that too just because she’s up with too much of the health tech

Yeah no that’s what I’m always afraid of but if it’s between broken ribs and a life saved, yeah we all prefer the latter

[knotty valve]

Yeah that's mainly where it comes from

But ofc you need to use caution cause a broken rib can easily lead to a punctured lung

[sinful moon]

lol I’d say don’t make it worse but yeah I don’t work in the field anymore

[knotty valve]

Ribs are meant to flexible anyway

So as long as they're healthy chances of breaking the ribs should be low

Infants/adolescents and elderly are at higher risk tho

[sinful moon]

I was actually resentful that I was paid… nearly x3 more to keep servers alive than I was to keep a human being alive but yeah I did get over it and look at things slightly more realistically… even if yes these kind of on the ground people need more pay

[knotty valve]

Or if they have bone marrow diseases as well you're not going to be doing CPR by hand

[knotty valve]

Yeah the pays horrible

50k a year on salary, or 32/hr

That's the options I was given between two interviews with hospitals

[sinful moon]

Ouch yeah that’s not much better than I was doing previously

[knotty valve]

I'm honestly glad I'm not still an ED nurse

Those hours were hellish, and so many rude and arrogant patients that were quicker to abuse than actually listen to medical advice

[sinful moon]

totally fair, I did absolutely love my time in working in special education and home health care. That was very appreciable benefit to your clients, felt good typically at the end of your day and just darn fulfilling. There were bad days sure, but not often. But yeah I’m just in IT office work for better and for worse

but lol my SO and myself could not have easily bought this house with such income

[knotty valve]

I'm gonna be similar when I get into tattoo artistry

Start out on shit all while you build your client base

I already have future potential clients tho which is nice

[safe heart]

How hard is a CTF?

[sinful moon]

lol interesting, yeah I nearly went into graphic design professionally but I was worried about the back and forth of client concerns and more

[knotty valve]

Depends on your skill level and how well you can research the topics

[sinful moon]

on THM they have difficulities assigned to them

[tight trout]

depends, some are for beginners, other are for the best of the best

on THM yeah they have difficulties

[safe heart]

Ohhh I didn’t know that

Thank you

[knotty valve]

CTF Time also show the weightings of CTFs posted there

Higher weights = harder challenges

[safe heart]

Ahhh

[knotty valve]

Lower Weights = easier challenges

[blazing granite]

graphic design, probably one of the jobs that ai will replace if it hasn't started 😉 😂

[knotty valve]

It replaces artists that were shit at their job

But a good artist won't lose their job to AI

[sinful moon]

I don’t actually believe that is true, even for something that may seem so simple

[knotty valve]

I mean if an artist presented me with a terrible stick figure drawing

I wouldn't use it 😂

[sinful moon]

we see “rebrand” as a single logo and think oh that was easy/dumb, but typically is entire brand portfolio of styles and sometimes custom fonts and more. Basically a guide of how to market with this brand

[knotty valve]

Yea

I think some rebrands are pretty cool tbh

I like Google's new proposed logo

The gradient is done really well

[sinful moon]

and meanwhile there’s today’s announcement that Max is now HBO Max again lolol

yeah the google one is actually understated and well done in a deceptively simple way

[knotty valve]

I prefer simpler logos imho

[blazing granite]

not completely but certainly will clear the field, the more talented will remain just because no ai/computer can match human imagination

[knotty valve]

Yea

My tattoo artist rejects people who send her AI generated references 😂

Quoting "this simply won't ever be possible on the human body"

[sinful moon]

Well most do, but that can actually mean many things, taken literally we do see a pushback at the all out minimalism we’ve been seeing, but simple doesn’t have to mean the same thing as the current trend

[knotty valve]

Yea I don't mean the current trends when I say simple

Like to me, materialUI is simple

[sinful moon]

It’s just not going to change anything that Canva and etc hasn’t already

[blazing granite]

yep, changing a name after so many years it's a bad move, people get used to the name internalise, everybody says google it nowadays, but nobody ever said yahoo it, or even remember altavista 😛

[sinful moon]

yeah that’s what you get for choosing the freaking Discovery CEO to take over in this merger

[frozen charm]

[shy vortex]

wtf thts so dumn lmaoo

wht was the purpose of even changing it then lmaooooo

[sinful moon]

as in it was an awful change in the first place lol

HBO had way too much brand recognition for them to drop it, it was an awful idea

so yes it’s cringe that they’re walking it back, but it is the correct choice

[frozen charm]

there's a shitty clothing brand too, named max

but y the heck hbo changed name?

[last harbor]

…

[sinful moon]

Because lol as above, the Discovery and not the WB/HBO side got to be CEO, so they de-emphasized the HBO side to promote a more family friendly brand, but that was a mistake lol

Like I can explain the reason, doesn’t mean that the Max rebranding was a good idea lol

[frozen charm]

Still HBO is more recognized

[knotty valve]

Imagine if THM rebranded

[blazing granite]

about 50 years I believe

[sinful moon]

due to his bias, he likely felt it would promote his crappy Discovery content more

but lol this has backfired in so so many ways

[blazing granite]

Honestly I can't remember a moment when hbo wasn't there 😂

[sinful moon]

iirc this was a leveraged buy-out assuming a ton of debt

which is why WB wrote off so many movies they completed just for tax benefits

and yeah never ending stuff like that

the character I have on my avatar, you can not stream despite being a Cartoon Network property, with the last two seasons exclusive to HBO Max

[blazing granite]

the same old story the more money you have the least tax you pay 😂 😛

[sinful moon]

they delisted it entirely as to not pay royalties

you can finally buy it digital only again, but only because that’s enough of a profit margin after actually paying the creators and etc

(Infinity Train from Cartoon Network, great show btw)

but lol you can’t find it on HBO Max

[knotty valve]

Iirc something similar to this happened with one of Bring Me The Horizon's first albums

[blazing granite]

I liked cd/dvd, now with streaming you just paying for the right to see, but you don't own sh*t tomorrow the decide to change something and bye bye film

[sinful moon]

lol I sure know and have heard that bands music but can not comment at all

[blazing granite]

once you bought that dvd is yours forever 🙂

[sinful moon]

yeah there’s a reason we now own over 1,600 movies lol

on blu-ray and UHD

[knotty valve]

It got released back in 2006 and basically disappeared from everything except for epitaphs YT channel until 2024

After, I believe, GMC took over rights to distribute it

[round onyx]

its time

[knotty valve]

Older Hoola hoop

[blazing granite]

Si vis pacem, para bellum 🙂 (If you want peace, prepare for war) but sound cooler in Latin 😂

[knotty valve]

I should go back to playing FP

[round onyx]

ngl i am very fucking lucky to stockpile on a lot of shit

Hi

[last harbor]

So u r a seeker hmm

Do u do a lot of thm?

[tight trout]

lmao

[knotty pendant]

Not a lot

[tight trout]

learned how to manually convert a decimal number to hex and back today, that was a fun challenge

[last harbor]

Oh mb. Srry idk how high the mage lvl is

Is it rlly high?

[last harbor]

Oh. Do u have a lot of knowledge tho?

[tight trout]

not really, its 0x9, but idc lol

[last harbor]

Nice

[knotty pendant]

A little

[last harbor]

Hmm

Wait

I think it’s higher than the hacker rank

So good ig

[last harbor]

When did u start?

[last harbor]

Do u have a lot of knowledge tho?

[knotty pendant]

Like September 2023

[tight trout]

i wouldnt say a lot, but i could probably hold my own weight here and there. I'm not a professional by any means though

[last harbor]

So not too old but also not too new

[last harbor]

Ph

*oh

Has anyone of u done any bug bounties till now?

[knotty pendant]

I tried one but got rate limited

😳

[last harbor]

Wdym

U got less money so u didn’t do it?

[knotty pendant]

They rate limited my ip

[last harbor]

Why?

[blissful snow]

I did some a while ago

[knotty pendant]

Idk

[last harbor]

And also u can get plenty of proxy IPs

[blissful snow]

never earned money tho.

[last harbor]

I personally have so many ips

[last harbor]

Why

[blissful snow]

I never completed them

[last harbor]

Were u using tor?

[last harbor]

Makes sense

Hru man btw

[knotty pendant]

No

[blissful snow]

I'm good wbu.

[last harbor]

Hmm. So ur ip got flagged hmm

U reminded me of my starting days

When my ip was flagged

On the fbi website

[last harbor]

I’m great as always

[tight trout]

mhm yeah?

[ancient plover]

[last harbor]

Yh. And I still kinda dk how it got flagged

[blissful snow]

That's good.

[last harbor]

Hello hacker rank

[blissful snow]

They're watching me currently

there are like four standing behind me.

[ancient plover]

hello

[tight trout]

[ancient plover]

i have a name though

[last harbor]

Why? Don’t tell me u got inspired by the shadow brokers and tried to do smth to the Feds💀

[blissful snow]

Nah I'm joking.

[ancient plover]

do you enjoy their presence

[last harbor]

Mb. I just gave u a nickname. Wat should I call u?

[blissful snow]

The only thing I did with the feds is trying to join the nsa.

[last harbor]

Ik lol

[blissful snow]

The only reason I was rejected is because I was to far 😭

[last harbor]

I have many people in cia, nsa and fbi

[blissful snow]

It was classes not actually a job there.

[last harbor]

Oh…

[blissful snow]

cool

I only know one that was apart of the nsa.

[ancient plover]

my handle ofc

[last harbor]

Oooh

[last harbor]

So is it rel?

[ancient plover]

👍

[blissful snow]

hel laggy ai takeing over

Nvm I'm good now.

[tight trout]

i for one welcome our new ai overlords

[last harbor]

I’m using ai rn for my history project

[blissful snow]

Why.

[last harbor]

You need to cut your nails. That's disgusting.

[knotty valve]

I'm sorry that the fact I have a relatively hands-on personal life upsets you 🙃

[tight trout]

lmaooooooo

[knotty valve]

Bro's never done anything with their hands or wears gloves constantly to not realise how easy it is to get dirt under your nails

[tight trout]

literally tho

[knotty valve]

It's worse when you're wearing acrylics too

That makes things even harder 😂

[last harbor]

[split plover]

Honestly only cut my finger nails for a few reasons and one of them is tapping on nails hard and rapidly is just uncomfortable

[knotty valve]

Even shorter for me

[last harbor]

Wait btw wat rank is master?

Is it hard to get master?

[knotty valve]

I constantly pick at nail polish

[last harbor]

Tday I almost almost broke my thumb nail just because it was lil big

[tight trout]

[round onyx]

i have so many questions as to why the majority of views for my blog are coming from Nigeria

[rapid merlin]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5JWh6BdbuiY

Im Just gonna leave this here.

Hello, and good evening yall.

[round onyx]

Nigerian prince

[knotty valve]

Yes

[blissful current]

[rapid merlin]

Pika Pi!

[rapid merlin]

Also the Go Library to create the GUI's will be available as a module soon.

[winged saddle]

hey, wondering if anyone knows a site, that properly teaches trojan.

[tight trout]

wdym by properly teaches trojan?

[knotty valve]

None because, under 99% of cases, malware development is illegal

If you're looking at malware analysis THM has a room for it

https://tryhackme.com/module/malware-analysis
Module, not room

[tight trout]

I don't think malware development is illegal in places like the US. Using it however is another story. But I dont belive the US has any laws regarding the development of malware

I could be wrong though

[dark mason]

Generating a trojan with Metasploit isn't illegal

But using it is

[tight trout]

yeah, that's the vibe i was going for

[dark mason]

(Depending on the situation)

[knotty valve]

Thought the development and distribution of malware was illegal

Distribution is obv illegal

[tight trout]

it def is in some places

[dark mason]

So Metasploit is illegal?

[knotty valve]

MSF isn't just malware gen

[tight trout]

like UK i wanna say has laws against writing malware

[blissful current]

[knotty valve]

Australia does too

With exceptions to military and intelligence applications

[tight trout]

ofc lol

[winged saddle]

nothing matters where i am. lol.

[knotty valve]

Tbf, much rather military making malware against other militaries than some random person making one and distributing it to civil

[knotty valve]

You can still be tried and charged in a foreign country if you're found to be attacking a foreign nation (either citizen or government)

[tight trout]

uh yeah it kinda does lol

[knotty valve]

Iirc US tried to extradite Maia Crimew for something

[winged saddle]

brother calm down.... its not like i am deploying it over .mil or the gov lol 😂

[knotty valve]

Doesn't matter who you're deploying anything against

[tight trout]

well you shouldnt be deploying it againt anyone period

[knotty valve]

^

Crime is crime, no matter where you live

[winged saddle]

need it for project

it's part of it

[tight trout]

what's the project?

[winged saddle]

let's just say, its fyp

[tight trout]

@cloud quiver

[knotty valve]

[winged saddle]

[knotty valve]

You're still on your own here

[winged saddle]

[cloud quiver]

Ayo

I'm taking my first cert exam in an hour and I'm nervous

Wish me luck y'all

[tight trout]

[arctic bison]

You can do it.

[rapid merlin]

Hey I need help I'm being stalked idk how but they leaked my nudes and I want to get revenge how are they spying on me

[cloud quiver]

Good luck on your exam 🙂 🚀

[cloud quiver]

We can't help you with that

[worldly cedar]

You don’t got this (jk)

[tight trout]

file a police report

[past sparrow]

Good luck!

[wintry flower]

No reason for being rude, just wish me luck

[past sparrow]

Cert exams are nervewrecking

[rapid merlin]

I have no proof

[past sparrow]

I was sweating alot on mine 😃

[worldly cedar]

It’s ok, it happened to me when I was 15 and the police did nothing so I learned how to decrypt their hard drive instead 😌

[slate wing]

Testing the profile update 😀

[rapid merlin]

I'm new to all this

[worldly cedar]

No luck, just the magic to believe in yourself 😇

[knotty valve]

File a police report, that's just your best bet

No one here has any legal authority to do anything

[rapid merlin]

Alright I'm off to learn

[worldly cedar]

I believe in you!

[past sparrow]

There may be hidden FBI agents spying 🥷

[worldly cedar]

Not so hidden after all

[wintry flower]

Vamoss 🫂

[knotty valve]

Even if they are, they can only do things they've been tasked to or have authority to act by court order or police report

[worldly cedar]

A donde vamos

[past sparrow]

That's true, someone first needs to file an issue

[worldly cedar]

I do what I want 👀
