If you're into hacking and linux for fun, you're most likely a weeb or display weeb behavior at the least.

i have like 3 laptops, a tablet, and a PC. how would i go about setting up a little cybersecurity testing network to learn pentesting on

[solid onyx]

[night dew]

does it matter that im on a private network through my apartment, and not my own dedicated connection through an ISP?

[west river]

who codes like that 😭

[night dew]

i mean i did voluntarily commit myself for a week at one point

[sly ridge]

I regret that

[lethal zodiac]

Private network is what you want when pentesting
Things can easily get out of hand if you're connected to an ISP and you accidentally do illegal stuff

[rapid merlin]

Oh maiii gottt Ray

[brisk ore]

[night dew]

id like to stay on the white hat side of hacking

[rapid merlin]

I like your about me 😁

[lethal zodiac]

Best is
Get a cheap router (tenda/dlink/tplink etc)
And just do your cyber sec stuff on that private network

[west river]

Are you doing python for cyber security or for fun/hobby?

[west river]

[night dew]

both

[west river]

or perhaps hacking the Pentagon

python.pty

[brisk ore]

guessing you get the logic and syntax but when you're tasked to program something out of it you don't know what goes where?

this looks like a much more broad version of leetcode

[west river]

i suck so hard building and stuff that you'll rage
cod and cs player

won't say valorant

[lethal zodiac]

Honestly yeah that's with most of these platforms

[west river]

i personally still do leetcode only

cpp

[brisk ore]

I did leetcode for a bit but now that I got my internship...

I'm not touching that for a good while until I need to again lol

[night dew]

i took one look at leetcode and was like "nah. i clearly have not learned enough yet to attempt these."

[lethal zodiac]

I did leetcode
Now I'm focusing on CTFs only (need to get my first job using CTF hehe)

[sly ridge]

You're gonna have to go back to it when you start to apply for jobs unless you remember all those stupid algo questions by heart lmao

[brisk ore]

how much have you learnt out of curiosity?

[brisk ore]

yeah ik it's dumb

[west river]

those random test cases with 1M elements in array 😭

[brisk ore]

but I'll get to that when I get to that

[brisk ore]

[night dew]

still very early beginner level, like learning about if statements and elif and that

[brisk ore]

ahh okay

[west river]

u can't suck more than me

[lethal zodiac]

Anything above medium is boo

Honestly I don't think it's required in real life unless idk you're building something from nasa

[brisk ore]

wdym my polynomial solution isn't efficient enough for you

[tight trout]

[sly ridge]

It's required for job interviews

That's really it

[west river]

O(n^100) wdym

[rapid merlin]

Well it’s not a contest

So

[sly ridge]

Though, you should understand DSA if you want o ACTUALLY be a software engineer and not just someone who can code

It's like the difference between a skid and an actual pen tester

[night dew]

but i dont know if I should just focus on cyber and networking basics and the like, vs coding later. the only reason i want to learn how to code is develop and analyze malware

[west river]

okay I'll download it
but then don't rage on me
I'm just a bbg

[brisk ore]

My algorithm just recreates the halting problem to search a binary tree wdym you can't accept it

[west river]

bfs dfs who

[night dew]

and cuz coding is cool as shit to me

[brisk ore]

I think if you're specifically learning for a cyber sec perspective. You'd be better off learning networking fundamentals first

and learning how to operate a terminal

[night dew]

youre probably right

[night dew]

like linux navigation? bandit wargame?

[west river]

check out professor messer's free course on yt if u want... that's so sick for networks

[lethal zodiac]

Honestly I was going to say this before

Learn what kaeini said, and then learn frontend web dev (namely javascript)

[sly ridge]

Networking >>> in your case. You don't need to know deep things about SE to be good at cyber sec whereas you do need to have a good understanding of networking.

[brisk ore]

Mainly Linux terminal navigation yea. Since you'll need it for the vast majority of tools you'll use for completing CTFs

[lethal zodiac]

You'll prolly perform way better knowing fullstack development and basics of network+terminal+server admin

[west river]

Home | Linux Journey https://share.google/SbqGlSXV29OJ6GtiW

[brisk ore]

i.e. nmap, ncat, gobuster, etc.

[sly ridge]

Obviously it's best to know both to a decent degree, but if you HAD to pick one, do networking fundamentals first

[west river]

my internship is in full stack and in my linked i have written cybersecurity engineer
💀job market is f-ed

[solid onyx]

Sorry to chime in. But it's also good to understand at least one programming language (I'm learning python so that I can use it to make tools) is also recommended.

[night dew]

does anybody here use Obsidian to take notes? i kind want to go back through the networking basics of the TryHackMe presecurity module and actually take good notes

[lethal zodiac]

Yes

[grizzled sky]

i highly recomend checking out logseq;

[west river]

@rapid merlin 130 gb
oh hell nah

[grizzled sky]

obsidian isn't foss while logseq is;

[night dew]

thats kinda what i figured. does PowerShell scripting count as a lnguage?

[night dew]

i do not know what FOSS means

[solid onyx]

But, really, you also need to understand that enumeration/reconnaissance is also equally important

[brisk ore]

Fully agree yeah, especially since understanding code can help massively in some problems

[brisk ore]

Free and Open Source

[grizzled sky]

FOSS = free and open source;

[night dew]

oh

duh

[sly ridge]

I agree with this. I only said networking > because he was asking which to learn first. You should definitely have at least a fundamental understanding of how programming works in order to either defend or break it.

[lethal zodiac]

My prev internship is cybersecurity but half of my work is fullstack cuz I'm redoing stuff to improve performance/security 💀

I learnt Go on the fly cuz of their api

[brisk ore]

Shit I'm having to learn Go and Angular too

[solid onyx]

If you're making ps1 scripts, yes. If not, then not really.

[west river]

money aint that important to me

Just a lil guy

[west river]

just a lil guy 😭

[night dew]

ive just always thought hackers/coders/programmers were the coolest thing ever, like wizards. technomancers.

[brisk ore]

He's gonna be responsible for quite a lot of trauma for my first internship I can already feel it

[grizzled sky]

for notion i would try using Appflowy since it has same features as notion and can be self hosted so it is more privacy centric;

appflowy and logseq are both great options if you value privacy;

[west river]

turns out they love anime and tentacle hen-

[night dew]

Go is another thing i was wanting to get into learning. is it beginner friendly?

[solid onyx]

Turns out, they just got bored and wanted to see what they can break

[west river]

never heard of appflowy but I'll check it out

[night dew]

yeah ive notcied theres a lot of weebs and furries in the tech space

[lethal zodiac]

Yes and no

Honestly

And I say this with the best of intent

Focus on cyber sec basics then get into web development

[sly ridge]

It's more beginner friendly than C++, it's less beginner friendly than Pyhton

[solid onyx]

I thought that was common knowledge

[west river]

wdym @solid onyx

@sly ridge

[brisk ore]

Ehhh, syntax wise it isn't bad but it introduces concepts that other languages abstracts completely for simplicity

[lethal zodiac]

Namely MERN stack

[night dew]

Revy from Black Lagoon is best waifu

[grizzled sky]

i'm weird, i started with web dev and went into cybersecurity afterwards;

[brisk ore]

so it'd be better learning something like Python as a first language then delving into Go

[sly ridge]

Why did I get @ after you replied about weebs and furries? LMAO

[grizzled sky]

now i am hoping to get into appsec long term;

[west river]

i.e. pointers which I'm gonna have to confront at some point lol

highly recomend watching serial experiments lain if you want a good anime to get into for cybersecurity;

You should know how the http request is working with the front end, backend and API

[real lichen]

i hate when a language doesnt have them

it's okay...

theres cybersecurity anime??????

no 😭 can't we play anything else

[night dew]

we really do be living in the future

[lethal zodiac]

There there

It's ok to be in denial

[west river]

bro is handing down trauma

read Berserk peepo

[lethal zodiac]

That would be elfen leid

[night dew]

which one is hostpital bed jack off man

[real lichen]

Ghost in the Shell!!!

[lethal zodiac]

I watched it as my first anime when I was 11

Didn't touch anime till I was 16 after that

[west river]

this is legit tho

[sly ridge]

Listen, I am a degen, but I'm not a weeb.

[west river]

Boku no pico?

[lethal zodiac]

same thing

[night dew]

please no

[lethal zodiac]

Elfen leid

I was watching anime not degen

[west river]

wdym isn't it about guys sharing ice cream and stuff

very wholesome

[night dew]

😦

[real lichen]

gotta watch old ghost in the shell first

its been around forever

[night dew]

Perfect Blue and Akira are peak kino

[west river]

my first anime was silent voice (koe no katachi) wnd then your lie in april

[west river]

akira is actually peak

read Berserk seriously

[grizzled sky]

Akira is better as a manga;

[real lichen]

watching the drama tear jerking stuff

[grizzled sky]

the anime cut out a lot of critical backstory;

[real lichen]

My first ones were Princess Moninoki and then Ninja Scroll

[grizzled sky]

Ergo proxy is another good choice for cybersec fans;

[real lichen]

not counting Dragon Ball because everyone watched that lol

[grizzled sky]

most people only watch z, imo db the original series and manga is funnier;

z abridged is peak though;

[real lichen]

it is

[west river]

just play watchdogs and forget about hacking anything after that

[lethal zodiac]

Which was the one in which Goku becomes a kid again and the world is kinda destroyed

[real lichen]

and if you havent seen Berserk it crazy as hell

[lethal zodiac]

Dragon ball ultra?

[grizzled sky]

gt

[lethal zodiac]

Ah yes GT

[grizzled sky]

that one is anime only because its not cannon to the manga;

so its effectively filler;

[lethal zodiac]

The most confusing anime moment in my life

[real lichen]

GT is not cannon though

[lethal zodiac]

Yes

[lethal zodiac]

I know

[real lichen]

they have a new one

[west river]

anyways thm is up again
bye guys
have a good day/night whatever timezone u r in

[grizzled sky]

super is cannon;

[real lichen]

yes

They have a new one that is everyone got turned into kids again

[sly ridge]

Daima

[grizzled sky]

also one piece is based;

[real lichen]

takes place after Super

[real lichen]

yes

[grizzled sky]

technically one piece and toriko are in the same universe as dragon ball;

[lethal zodiac]

3am

Imma crack another monster

[grizzled sky]

toriko is mid but one piece is peak;

[real lichen]

later

[lethal zodiac]

This reminds me I haven't played war thunder in 1 month

[real lichen]

[grizzled sky]

isn't war thunder that game that people have leaked confidential tank specs just to prove a bet?;

multiple times iirc;

[outer rivet]

IpadOS26 looks good

I want to download so bad

[lethal zodiac]

Yeah

[outer rivet]

[grizzled sky]

linux tablets are best tablets imo;

but there aren't that many cheap ones atm;

[lethal zodiac]

My samsung s6 lite is the best

[outer rivet]

Nice nice

[grizzled sky]

i like my s6 its good for drawing just like ipad;

i user those mostly just for adobe and the like that i don't want anywhere near my desktops;

[lethal zodiac]

I have a business windows account

So 1 tb storage and all

One note is pretty nice for cross platform stuff

[grizzled sky]

kotatsu is a nice android app too, i use it to track web comics to read on my colour ereader tablet;

[lethal zodiac]

And it was cheap (I got it for around 100 dollars new)

[rapid merlin]

Like mobile games?

[grizzled sky]

for that much you can buy a nas;

[west river]

anything

[grizzled sky]

and then self host your notes;

as well as everything else;

you can even find some used laptops to use as nas;

[west river]

which ain't 100 gb

[rapid merlin]

How good are you? I don’t like losing 😭

[rapid merlin]

LOL

[lethal zodiac]

No I needed a tablet for note taking

Student+lots of offsite work

[west river]

in what
I'm so so in everything

[lethal zodiac]

Tablet >>>> notebook

[grizzled sky]

logseq works locally on android and then you can set up cloud backup;

[west river]

but i get kinda competitive if it's smth like fps or stuff

[grizzled sky]

and all that can be done for cheaper than 100;

you can get the tablet itself for 100usd;

[west river]

even multiplayer co-op games r fine too
doesn't have to be a competition

[grizzled sky]

appflowy you can also self host in a docker and then connect with your tablet from anywhere, if you need notion features instead of wiki features;

[lethal zodiac]

Yes
And I have free cloud storage and all anyways so don't need to drop 100 dollars more

Also where I live a NAS is around 500 dollars

And a cheap old laptop would still come around 50-200 dollars

And then there's an added fee to keep my ip static

[grizzled sky]

anyone selling you a nas for 500 is scamming you;

you can literally find laptops at the dump;

i got like 10 old laptops from the dump once;

depends on the place you live, i'm in vancouver where lots of windows users throw away good computers once windows doesn't support it;

[lethal zodiac]

Here the dumps get picked clean by second hand market peepsn

[rapid merlin]

That’s very honest 😭
I’m not the best at playing games either

[lethal zodiac]

Oh yeah no here most peeps I know are using laptops till they die and then sell them at scrap

We have a decent and easy system to sell laptops for scrapping rather than to just dump it

[grizzled sky]

look out on ebay when windows 10 loses support;

we're about to get an avalanche of cheap used enterprise pcs;

[west river]

i just dont get much time now a days to grind a game

[crystal mauve]

Shhhhhh don’t tell everyone

[rapid merlin]

Lemme think of something tee hee

[rapid merlin]

I get what you mean, Mr or Miss Ray

[west river]

mr
but just ray is ok

[lethal zodiac]

Enterprise PCs never make it to ebay (our version of ebay is different but same idea)

They instead get sold to second hand vendors who already have contacts with them

And most of the time the same people who sold it to them take it back

This is in Asia

Idk bout NA and EU

[grizzled sky]

depends what you are looking for and if you are in na i guess. for hdds for instance i got 4 enterprise grade 12tb hdds recently for my nas that were cheaper on ebay including shipping than the cost of new 8tb consumer drives;

i guess in asia people are wiser than they are here when it comes to used electronics;

at this point i have stacks of used computers that i should flip or use to create home media nas for people as a part of my it work;

[lethal zodiac]

More like
They don't like to spend alot

Once you get let's say a nice hard disk

You'll prolly use it till it dies

(We still have a CCTV system HDD from 2016 running on our sound system)

[grizzled sky]

one of the ways i have been making money is finding seniors and helping them get their cybersecurity improved and setting up local stored files like their home photos;

and the old laptops and desktops i will restore and throw a linux media distro on with docker containers for whatever services they need;

trying out connecting to local small businesses too like coffee shops wanting their wifi secured, been making some decent money that way even if its less stable than if i can find full time employment in cybersec;

[lethal zodiac]

Oh I've done the same with seniors but for schools and stuff

[grizzled sky]

long term my goal is to find an isp to work for once i can get certified with sec+ and ccna or network+;

[lethal zodiac]

Last time it was setting up a network of 2 computer labs with firewall

[grizzled sky]

IT in senior homes especially is a great way to make money, most of the management there usually has next to no knowledge in my experience;

[lethal zodiac]

They wanted central admin control and only allow access to their website, wikipedia and python website domain

Did that by setting up ipfire on 2 machines

[grizzled sky]

Here there its mostly setting up XYZ lab

More IT than cybersecurity

Me knowing cybersec is a plus

[steep mountain]

What are some coding languages needed for I.T or Cybersecurity?, I know html, css, sql, and python

[rapid merlin]

Okay Ray Ray 🌝

[rapid merlin]

You could easily google this

[west river]

depends...you should know how to read a language before everything and it comes eventually...like i recently found a bug in a source code analysis which is written in ruby and i cant code even hello world in ruby

and if u r talking about being able to program smth in a lang then imo python and C is enough to get u started

eventually u can pick up go and perhaps scripting langs like bash and powershell

[steep mountain]

I did but I ask other opinions

[west river]

and much later assembly for rev eng..i myself am learning assm atp

[west river]

GAME GAME GAME :p

[steep mountain]

Wouldn’t you forget the other languages if you’re leading that many languages?

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1311087570511331370/1319069555070603296/togif.gif

[west river]

u dont have to remember anything
u can always google the syntax and stuff

just be comfortable with one lang and then move on to the next

no need to learn everything together

to start i think either python or c is good enough

i started with c

[steep mountain]

Got it, python getting a bit boring sometimes so that’s why I ask

[west river]

well u can try C ...it takes u through a lot of harware lvl stuff and u can even use C knowledge for malware n rootkit dev

[steep mountain]

I was thinking C then Go cause you can learn exploit tools with Go right?

[rapid merlin]

I see, in my personal opinion love language is the best

Gotta find a free IDE to use on macOS to begin learning python

[brisk ore]

just tried the openvpn VMs

fucking night and day difference compared to the attackboxes holy shit

[knotty valve]

https://research.checkpoint.com/2025/ai-evasion-prompt-injection/
Amazing

[knotty valve]

Iirc PyCharm is free, I believe Visual Studio should have Python support, you can also build VS Code into an IDE if you want, etc.

I wouldn't really recommend using an IDE for a scripting language though, it's too heavy for no real benefit, so sticking to a normal code/text editor with syntax highlighting is fine

Google SecOps

[knotty valve]

Ahhh

[scarlet nimbus]

Please somebody kill me

[knotty valve]

We have our own in-house IDS and IPS

So it's overly pedantic but in a good way

[scarlet nimbus]

Nice, I think that in the next years we will start that type of project

[knotty valve]

Normally you don't unless in-house has more use than MSP

A lot of the time MSP stuff have everything you need

[scarlet nimbus]

We use 14 monitoring systems...

[knotty valve]

We've got a few as well

But it all routes to a central mainframe

[scarlet nimbus]

Same

[solid onyx]

Will do. Thanks for the unmute. Anyway, I was gonna say that most in the tech industry watch anime and (some) vtubers. You might even see references of such popular media in their rooms in TryHackMe.

@knotty valve I will tell you from a lot of experience... the majority of MSP's dont hire quality and dont keep up with their promised deliverables.

[knotty valve]

The sec eng team explicitly stated not to touch the mainframe cause it's an amalgamation of yes

[knotty valve]

I know lol

I work in cyber

[sharp plume]

Same, I worked at MSP's as the "Security Manager" and almost destroyed my liver

[knotty valve]

But MSPs don't support what we need in any capacity so we had to build most of it ourselves

[lime shell]

is it common for windows VM's to just kinda yk, die?

[knotty valve]

Not unless you do something to it that would cause it

[west river]

how much ram have u given

[knotty valve]

I've got a windows VM from 2017 that's running fine

[lime shell]

it's runningi n my kali vm with 10 GB ram under xfreerdp

so it's a vm in a vm

[west river]

shouldnt die then uk

[knotty valve]

That's gonna be prone to issues

[tight trout]

mmmmmmm yeah that'd might do it

[knotty valve]

Nested Virtualisation is hell

[west river]

wait what

[lime shell]

it's for the windows privilige escalation box

[knotty valve]

Nested VMs

[west river]

so kali is in vm and inside that u have windows vm ?

bruh why

[tight trout]

lmaooo

[sharp plume]

so if its a vm in vm you only have 5gb for the system instead of the 10 that it shows

[knotty valve]

You can just setup a VM LAN lmao

[lime shell]

well I run Kali in a vm because why would you not, then I need to 'attack' a windows machine I run on freexdp

[west river]

windows natively needs a lot of ram just t o run the sys files

[knotty valve]

Just set them up separately and connect them on their own private LAN

[lime shell]

I dunno man, you don't want to know the dumb shit I do with my kali vm

[tight trout]

it's pretty easy with virtualbox as well

[west river]

so just make a vm of win parallel to kali ... not inside kali

[knotty valve]

And VMWare too

[lime shell]

fair enough

[knotty valve]

Same with Qemu

[tight trout]

i don't have as much experience with that so i'll take your word for it

[knotty valve]

Fair lol

Nested VMs are never sane

Unless you're doing it with Proxmox and have shit tons of ram and compute to support it

[sharp plume]

@knotty valve VM's are never sane, nested are like eating mushrooms when you first wake up.

[knotty valve]

VMware also does fine with nested as well if you have CPU and RAM to accommodate it

We do it at work but we have a massive scale to accommodate for it all

[tight trout]

your work is massive lol

[knotty valve]

Talking a collective RAM size of a good 1TB

[knotty valve]

Yeah lmfao

What's hell is virtualising satellite systems

That never goes right the first time

It took us ages to get it right and it still breaks

[sharp plume]

why not centeralize and create a hub and spoke via the firewalls?

[scarlet nimbus]

Windows VM with wsl

[knotty valve]

The last satellite I did maintenance on had a glorious 4GB of ram

[knotty valve]

Cause sats don't work the same as normal computer systems

And we need to do a bunch of tests before testing on grounded hardware

[wheat hare]

nice 😅

[knotty valve]

Nice

[sharp plume]

ah tests.... I sacrifice a goat every now ant then also...

[knotty valve]

Our tests are cursed

We haven't touched most of them since five years before i started

[sharp plume]

get a goat... sacrifie... fixed.

[knotty valve]

And whenever we tried fixing the tests nothing works

And yes, all teams working on it are SATCOM certified

[wintry steppe]

My grandpa wanted to run a specific 3D Printer slicer on Linux. Went to their GitHub and all the cmake files are screwed up and random bits of code don't work.

When EggTrayIcon.c keeps ruining your compilation

[knotty valve]

So we know how it should work

Does it work when we write the test cases properly? NOPE!

[tight trout]

why should it lmao?

basically i fucked around all my files in my desktop got deleted, folders and files

[solid onyx]

https://tenor.com/view/darwin-charles-gif-18451809

Plz tell me you had a backup

[steep mountain]

where can i backup

i look in recycle bin my files not there

i lost my shat cause i had notes on python in my desktop

[solid onyx]

usually, if I'm doing something that might screw with my files in my computer, I will keep a seperate drive with a backup.

[night dew]

did you have any kind of cloud backup set up? google drive, onedrive, anything?

[steep mountain]

you mean a usb drive?

Oh yea yea i have one drive

[solid onyx]

If it can fit, then yes

btw, with someone with little to no python knowledge. I was able to update the python2 exploit to work with python3

for a machine on tryhackme

[steep mountain]

fuccckkkk i dont got shit

[night dew]

oof

[steep mountain]

brb im gonna crash out

[solid onyx]

which I do want to address that some machines need to be updated

[solid onyx]

have a safe crashout

[steep mountain]

like i lost my coding projects...

all of it

[solid onyx]

Understandable if you want to cry

I would to

*too

I might post this on the original github and ask if I can post the python3 update

[night dew]

how hard would it be to build a program in Python that would scrape cooking websites for sandwich recipes and compile them into a big sandwich database?

[pliant bronze]

Am i the only one who got the glitch in Dark Mode -- Like Many texts were hidden, i had to highlight them with my mouse to show up ...

I just noticed today, And didn't knew how much things i just missed reading...

[solid onyx]

That's a lot of threads my guy....

Then again I ain't one to judge

[night dew]

?

like CPU threads?

[solid onyx]

So, for something of that scale, you would need to use python's threading to go over all the websites. then you will need to type out keywords that the script should pick up on so that it shows you only the recipes.

[night dew]

oh

[solid onyx]

Again, I'm no python genius, I just barely started, but even I know that something like that would be daunting for me.

It's not a glitch.

[solid onyx]

[sick lance]

The text just hasn't changed colour.

[solid onyx]

You would need to have some extensions that do that.

I recommend dark reader

https://tenor.com/view/dark-reader-dark-mode-my-beloved-meme-gif-6494651542471745108

Isn't it glitch if dark mode is enabled text isn't turning white? Like the black text just get hidden... And have to highlight them with mouse..

straight to the point. And it holds your hand enough to just let you do it yourself when you want to.

[ashen condor]

It does tend to beat around the bush sometimes , but if you look past it , thm isnt a terrible resource tbh

[solid onyx]

If you want to diversify, I've used portswigger for specific vulnss

[chilly veldt]

I'll be busy too, I am organizing a 40 person meetup 😭

[tight trout]

[chilly veldt]

We are going full focus on Google CTF

Which is also happening this weekend

[marsh lark]

ohhhh, we’re also doing that as well

[marsh lark]

It’s fine

[chilly veldt]

Nice, good luck

It's usually fun challenges

[sick lance]

Looking from the breach task, I was right. 👀

[chilly veldt]

We are trying to qualify for the finals again

[marsh lark]

[marsh lark]

[chilly veldt]

Thanku, we qualified the last couple of years

Won the qualifiers last year

[marsh lark]

Wowwwwww

[marsh lark]

craaaazy

[chilly veldt]

Yeah, it was a fun time flying 20 people to Spain for the finals

[marsh lark]

Goodnesss gracious

Wait, does google pay for our flights and stuff?

If we go to the finals?

[chilly veldt]

No, top 3 wins money, but since we are such a big team we got sponsors and other winnings we put together to pay for travels and stuff

[round onyx]

Hmm maybe

I think I just gonna focus on Google CTF for now

[marsh lark]

maybe join our team for now, if you have the time, you can do it, but you don't have to do it if you don't want to 🙂

[marsh lark]

yeah, it is a bigger contest anyway

[marsh lark]

what if we are a small team?

[marsh lark]

btw, when does the Google CTF start?

[chilly veldt]

Then you might have to pay yourself

[round onyx]

tmr iirc

[chilly veldt]

Tomorrow at 20:00 CEST

I hope they have throwbacks to last year's finals like they had last year

Last year they teased the game for the finals in challenges

[olive berry]

Hi everyone mine names Clpzy, I’m new to hacking and recently started the oHSINT challenge, I’ve managed to complete all the questions except find the users password, now I’m not looking for the answer just hints towards it, they make you extract the SSID using the BSSID and I feel like that’s a key to the answer I’m just lost as to how SSID’s can extract the password, any hints as to ways I can extract the password ?

Any help would be greatly appreciated

[tight trout]

@tight trout thanks so much will check it out

Gave +1 Rep to @tight trout (current: #89 - 94)

I'm gonna attempt the industrial intrusion CTF event thing. I've only been working at learning pen testing/ethical hacking for a couple weeks now

What could go wrong?

[knotty valve]

Absolutely nothing

Use it as a learning experience

[chilly veldt]

Worst thing that can happen is that you don't learn anything

[tight trout]

and you dont have fun, remember to have fun

[cloud quiver]

Please don't self-promote 🙂

[sly ridge]

Thanks! That was the goal anyways

[twin ridge]

Gave +1 Rep to @knotty valve (current: #78 - 115)

[sly ridge]

I'm bound to learn something because I will look into writeups after a bit and just write down what my throughts were and if I was on the right track at least

That's why I plan on doing it solo. I just want to get a feel for where I'm at. I work in tech, and I've had a few years of web dev (personal project experience) so the topics in THM's courses aren't too overwhelming

if I get even one flag I'll be happy

[tight trout]

that's a great mindset to bring to it, best of luck!

[sly ridge]

Thank you!

[white lava]

Hello gentlemen

[cinder ember]

hi again

[tight trout]

hiya!

[sly ridge]

Ello ello

[cinder ember]

I'm also going to attempt it, maybe I don't have enough skills, but why not, nobody forbids me to just try

[marsh lark]

hello Ashlynn, ready for Google CTF?

[sly ridge]

Hey, there's only one way to find out! No harm in trying it at all.

Maybe you'll surprise yourself

[cinder ember]

Maybe we'll work together?

in one team

[sly ridge]

Maybe in the future, but I want to try this one solo to test myself and see where I'm personally at.

[cinder ember]

Ok that will be good for us

I will try this in solo too then
