Software, blue team red team? @tight trout

[tight trout]

how long have you been in the tech scene?

[tight trout]

blue team one day hopefuly

[merry canyon]

Your professor must be proud of you

[tight trout]

he went through the 5 stages of grief this last semester

[merry canyon]

Abt to study

[merry canyon]

Hahahahaha

[tight trout]

cause i got my AA and am moving on to a 4-year school

[loud orbit]

What do u do then

[tight trout]

ive been into tech since right before i was 18, and into cybersec since last october

[loud orbit]

Did you ever think of going for soc and working up from there would be better or?

[merry canyon]

Studying since school, college, diploma and now uni, so apprx 10 years, but all theoretical never practical, but i just got sub thanks to Binary, so i guess real journey starts now?

[twin ridge]

Gave +1 Rep to @tight trout (current: #45 - 223)

[tight trout]

parents are helping with paying for school, so might as well get the education

[tight trout]

hell yeah!

[merry canyon]

Still studying , right now pre security

[loud orbit]

Damnnnn all theory so Yh it does for you bro

[loud orbit]

Ahhh okok

[loud orbit]

U think it was worth it over getting the hands on experience and working your way up

[merry canyon]

I never got the opportunity to do anything practical nor was i aware of it, like thm or htb, im from deep third world

Deepest you can say

[tight trout]

i've already had two IT internships, and i get a lot of hands on stuff with my school

[loud orbit]

Oh damn so only a year ago your started ?

[loud orbit]

Oh lucky

[merry canyon]

Mints it doesnt seem like youve done a year worth of work tbh

[tight trout]

built them a proxmox cluster, helped run a ctf, helped with creating their attack network kinda

[loud orbit]

What your plan and goals long term

[merry canyon]

seems like youre at least 6 years in practical

[tight trout]

more or less

[merry canyon]

Pen testing

[tight trout]

wanna know my secret?

[merry canyon]

Yes please.

[loud orbit]

Really good for a portfolio

[tight trout]

https://tenor.com/view/autism-creature-tbh-creature-yippee-gif-26840326

[merry canyon]

i actually do wanna learn from everyone as much as i can

[tight trout]

i shit you not lol

[loud orbit]

So did you know anything about cyber or coding etc before hand

[tight trout]

nope

barely used a computer at all

[loud orbit]

U in for a journey

[merry canyon]

Do or die situation for me atm

And not even kidding

[tight trout]

volunteered in my HS's IT dept for the last semester of my Senior year

[loud orbit]

Wowwww and within a year ,at this current point now ,what’s your skill set you can code etc …knowledge

[tight trout]

fixed a lot of chromebooks

[merry canyon]

Are you in uni now mints?

[loud orbit]

My advice learn blue along side were u can

[tight trout]

got covid and leanred html and css while that was going on

[merry canyon]

Thats what we had a discussion on earlier

Im starting with pen testing and then blue teaming

[tight trout]

then i started with the odin project to learn web dev

picked up JS (forgot it all by now) and ruby (my one true love)

[merry canyon]

I have 3 months of subscription, so i gotta make the most of it

[tight trout]

also learned pyhton from python crash course 3rd edition

[loud orbit]

Yhhhh for sure red team is the hardest to just do bc experience trust factors certs and you need references etc and they expect you to know blue anyway

[sullen kestrel]

yo

[merry canyon]

How was your first website

[tight trout]

shite

[merry canyon]

and compared to now

[tight trout]

liek first one ever?

shite shite shite

[merry canyon]

Show a glimpse of both

[merry canyon]

thats my first site lol

[loud orbit]

So currently I’m in a blue based theory bootcamp ,then with the help of the providers who run the course they have connections to employers etc I aim to go on a lvl 4 cloud apprenticeship

[merry canyon]

Oops

[hardy wharf]

chatgpt?

[tight trout]

no?

i did it all by hand

[merry canyon]

Goodluck!!!

[hardy wharf]

oh

[merry canyon]

And have you done pen testing etc?

[loud orbit]

Then long term mix that with red team cloud security +purple team ,love brooo

[tight trout]

you do not need ChatGPT for html

[loud orbit]

Try hack me

[mental ferry]

i dont know if its a compliment

[hardy wharf]

oh

[merry canyon]

[hardy wharf]

some don't

[hardy wharf]

real

[rapid merlin]

fucking noone is hiring

[merry canyon]

but everyday is a new day, you see new things, you meet new things, you do new things

[loud orbit]

That’s straight bullshit

[merry canyon]

no day is the same

[hardy wharf]

so real

[rapid merlin]

when it comes to hospitality and shit

[loud orbit]

Not all parents are shit idc

[rapid merlin]

like i got experience being waiter aswell

[loud orbit]

Mine wasn’t

[rapid merlin]

my parents arent shit

[merry canyon]

i am your age and im not living life that way either

[rapid merlin]

but they think i just play videogames all day

[loud orbit]

Them twats abandoned me my own parents so u be lucky u have ones who care

[rapid merlin]

they dont know im grinding out thm rooms

[merry canyon]

We all been there

[sullen kestrel]

i can relate

[elder hound]

Just keep grinding guys, keep building your skills.

[merry canyon]

keep listening from an ear and exit from the other

[loud orbit]

But you don’t need them to succeed and do what u wanna do ,to be your self

[sullen kestrel]

everyone in my plays games all day too and i grind thm

[hardy wharf]

show them lol

[sullen kestrel]

and they still think they better

[rapid merlin]

they womt get it

theyre in the boomer mentality

[hardy wharf]

thats the point

[elder hound]

Then you are doing something right.

[loud orbit]

Don’t show them

[rapid merlin]

im taking out £1k from my savings to buy a pc

[elder hound]

When you are grinding and not taking the normal work path life everybody thinks you are crazy.

[rapid merlin]

and they say “for what just to play more games”

[loud orbit]

When u living life and proof it to them with evidence then they’ll know

[loud orbit]

Damn bruh

Facts

[rapid merlin]

yea soon bro

[loud orbit]

Show them certs you going for

[rapid merlin]

i get my pt1 by end of the month

[sullen kestrel]

become succesfull and get alots of certs

[slow cloud]

could a i7-9750H and a 1650 run a small AI?

[merry canyon]

I believe in you

[sullen kestrel]

your hardwork will speak

[marsh lark]

just wanna ask, how hard do you think the PT1 is?

[rapid merlin]

idk seems hard

is cos my pc is slow

*laptop

[marsh lark]

are you planning on trying to pass it?

[rapid merlin]

yea

[hardy wharf]

are you going to pay for the thm pt1 cert?

[marsh lark]

did you buy it yet?

[rapid merlin]

yea

not yet

[merry canyon]

How much is the certificate?

[rapid merlin]

i dont feel readdy

[marsh lark]

are you able to solve some hard challenges on thm?

[hardy wharf]

dont if thats your first cert

[merry canyon]

and whats the value in the job hunting market of it

[rapid merlin]

i cant even do basic ctfs without a guode

[marsh lark]

then, probably don't do the PT1 yet

[rapid merlin]

eh security+ seems to be much harder

[rapid merlin]

yea

[summer escarp]

Yes, it's just a project and I aspire to document it. It's a complete penetration testing tool.

[merry canyon]

Its theory

[sullen kestrel]

it takes practice bro, me too

[marsh lark]

I would recommend the ejpt first tho

[hardy wharf]

not talking about security+

[rapid merlin]

im talking bout pt1

[marsh lark]

I know

[rapid merlin]

i trust thm

[marsh lark]

I mean EJPT is really good (apparently), and probably a better starting point

[rapid merlin]

it got me from 0 to basic understandings of pentesting and it

[rapid merlin]

yea thm certs are fairly new

[marsh lark]

I just think EJPT could be a great cert to start with

[summer escarp]

What is this

[rapid merlin]

i looked at ejpt objectives just now

[elder hound]

And the exam only is about 100 bucks.

[rapid merlin]

i have all the exam coverage skills

seems like all the stuff i learnt at cybersecurity 101 path

[marsh lark]

actualy 250 USD mate

[marsh lark]

Thankyou my favourite Donut

Do you feel any better btw?

[marsh lark]

yeah

my parents quite angry at the creators of the competition

they were only sad/angry I might not be able to go the camp for the top contestants

I could only go to the bathroom once in a 4.5 hour time

[sick maple]

@merry canyon search "suisei"

[marsh lark]

how can you focus when your bladder is going to explode

ans: you can't

[sick maple]

that's tough

[marsh lark]

yah, especially for a kid

also when you are nervous

anxious

[merry canyon]

It actually makes me focus more

[marsh lark]

wut

your bladder is about to implode

or explode

and you can focus better?

huh

[sick maple]

are you a kid?

[marsh lark]

how old are you?

ohhh

yeah, I'm only 14

[merry canyon]

genuinely wanted to thank snowie

[sick maple]

i sleep after coffee too. i don't focus on full bladder tho

[marsh lark]

ngl

[merry canyon]

Goodluck in 180

[marsh lark]

can I say what happened afterward

[merry canyon]

It depends on how full it is i guess

[marsh lark]

might sound... kinda gross

[sick maple]

after what?

[merry canyon]

You peed your pants

[marsh lark]

the contest

[sullen kestrel]

im on streak 4 lol

[marsh lark]

lol

[merry canyon]

Oh

I was right?

[sick maple]

oh

[marsh lark]

I shall not say whether you were correct or not

but I will say

[sick maple]

that's fine

[merry canyon]

hahahahah

[marsh lark]

after the contest

[merry canyon]

Its chill donut

[marsh lark]

I peed for 1 minute straight

[merry canyon]

Not bad

[sick maple]

that's fair for holding it soo long

[marsh lark]

my bladder was going to explode when 2 hours was left....

I had to wait for 2 hours....

it was torture

[sick maple]

and it's not soo good for health ig

[marsh lark]

not good for your bladder, yeah

[sick maple]

meanwhile me

[marsh lark]

Me and you

Pathfinders

[brisk ore]

I'm on a 3 day streak dw dude

Took a break after grinding hard for two weeks

[sick maple]

sounds like an scaling issue

[merry canyon]

What are everyones specs?

[brisk ore]

Just take it one day at a time and you'll be at 30 days before you know it

[sick maple]

🤝

[sick maple]

a break is needed afterall

[brisk ore]

My PC at home has a 5600X, RX 6800 and 32GB of RAM clocked at 3600mhz

[brisk ore]

That and I also started a SWE internship

[rapid merlin]

Out of curiosity, do you guys think AI pentesting will take off more in the future?

[sick maple]

cool

[brisk ore]

We've already got AI discovering exploits so...

It's a possibility

[rapid merlin]

Nah, I mean like LLM poisoning/jailbreaking/sensitive data exposure

[brisk ore]

Oh

Yeah I can definitely see that being a future attack vector

Especially as AI email summarizers in Gmail are already being abused to scam people

[quick blaze]

Not really...most closed source models are built by huge and secure companies who invest a lot on security, anything open source doesn't exactly need security either

[brisk ore]

Ehh, I wouldn't be surprised if mistakes would be made in the future.

Especially as companies are leaning more into using LLM code in production

[quick blaze]

Nowadays even if you try to prompt inject or try to make it spit out something its not supposed to, AI strictly goes against it, sometimes even follows along and makes you think you're succeeding but you just get thrown into a wall

[quick blaze]

what does AI jailbreaking/poisoning have to do with LLM written code?

[brisk ore]

nvm I'm being stupid

Ignore me

[rapid merlin]

Appreciate your guys insight

[brisk ore]

I was thinking something along the lines of the reliance on LLM code that could be seeping into model training

Which could introduce oversights as it doesn't exactly have the best security considerations by default

[rapid merlin]

Ah like if it was viewing/connected to sensitive data from the production environment?

[brisk ore]

Potentially

It already has a track record of misbehaving when being threatened with a shutdown

[quick blaze]

i mean tbf companies are implementing a lotta chatbots on their websites, those could potentially leak shit from insecure design, but most of these internal AIs are usually trained to respond to specific queries only so 🤷🏽‍♂️

[loud orbit]

Well Yh but when u check out college or whatever that offer certs up in Leicester u said right ?

[quick blaze]

What people don't tell you when they do these tests is that these models specifically have predefined prompt synthesis that makes them act in a certain way, as in testing behaviours

so when AI is told to..fight back, very clearly, it will fight back

[brisk ore]

Yeah I did

[quick blaze]

we do not have AI in the literal sense that it is intelligent, it is not, it just does as it is told, and that is all

[rapid merlin]

But what if my grandma passed away and the only memory I have of her is telling me about the companies internal secrets? lul

[quick blaze]

all AI is right now is a glorified pattern matcher

[quick blaze]

"I'm sorry. I cannot respond to this request."

[loud orbit]

What u do rn ? Then

[empty ember]

Network request error

[mellow narwhal]

I cannot stress on how much I agree with this and how much most people don't understand it

[brisk ore]

That works to an extent, like someone used that to brute force Windows 10 keys where it normally wouldn't try that under normal circumstances

[quick blaze]

Error in message stream

[brisk ore]

But yeah doubt it'd work for internal secrets lol

[loud orbit]

I always see you post Mad hacker shit and that …and I still don’t know what you do …?👀

[sick maple]

https://chatgpt.com/share/687ce77e-83f8-800e-9683-e33a76e0fcf9

Chatgpt prompt engineering

[quick blaze]

any mistakes made by the AI are also constantly fixed

[empty ember]

make it debug it for you

[quick blaze]

entire teams working on operational safety and regulations smh

[empty ember]

then they had a search bar

and some kid with xss

boom db gone

[mellow narwhal]

That's called a risk vs reward imbalance, where it focuses on which choice gives it a more 'rewarding' outcome, and in the tightly controlled case, it found not shutting down to be more rewarding. You just have to manipulate literal mathematics to get that outcome where it resists being shut down. It doesn't mean that the AI is being sentient or making decisions in it's interest.

[quick blaze]

F

[loud orbit]

You do it as a job ?

[brisk ore]

Wakey wakeu

[tight trout]

ive been awake

[ripe sleet]

https://tenor.com/view/fuwawa-hololive-gif-13840053388744213922

[merry canyon]

Mints whatre you up to

whats keeping you awake

im curious

also i wanted to ask you a few questions abt your os setup

[tight trout]

whatre the questions

[merry canyon]

i believe you are using arch?

[ripe sleet]

Hmm

[tight trout]

yes

[ripe sleet]

I thought I lost embed perms for a second there

[merry canyon]

did you build everything yourself?

[ripe sleet]

But it was just my internet

[tight trout]

mostly used pacman and yay

or downloaded the AppImage

[merry canyon]

i was wondering, thm attackbox will eventually become slower when i move to a bit more advanced and practical stuff

[brisk ore]

I love Pacman up until I haven't updated it in months and it just breaks everything

[merry canyon]

and i will be doing utm

any suggestions or advice before i decide to transition

[tight trout]

yeah, i keep it updated every few days

well at most

[brisk ore]

I didn't bring my PC down to uni, came back up to update it and it kinda broke lol

[tight trout]

save yo shit

make backups

[merry canyon]

and what factors to consider before choosing distros

[tight trout]

ease of use
comfort with maintenance
etc

my arch is really low maintenance

at worst it's take one day to set back up

[worldly tide]

My transition was like this: dual boot windows + ubuntu > only ubuntu for 2 months > arch linux

[merry canyon]

and lightweight?

[brisk ore]

That's more your DE

Than your distro

Generally you can interchange your DE no matter what distro you pick

[digital estuary]

sup ant!

[worldly tide]

Hey aaron!!!

[digital estuary]

bro

...

[merry canyon]

So how come a lot of users moved to arch?

[digital estuary]

😢

[digital estuary]

lightweight

and its just good

[brisk ore]

Because of how big the AUR is and the flexibility you have in your setup

[digital estuary]

you literally build it yourself

[brisk ore]

Just whatever you do don't use Manjaro

Any other choice is valid

[digital estuary]

OH YEAHHHH

LOOK WHO IS 0x8

[brisk ore]

Congrats man

[digital estuary]

i got my upgrade

[worldly tide]

Congratulations!!!

[merry canyon]

Congrats!!

[worldly tide]

Speaking of which, how useful is CAPA?

[quick blaze]

piss

[merry canyon]

What abt blackarch?

[digital estuary]

😢

[tight trout]

EoL

don't use

[sick maple]

pretty old tho

[quick blaze]

I DONT WANNA DO ITTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT

EEEEEUUUUUUUUGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

[worldly tide]

ParrotOS 😄

[tight trout]

not EoL

[digital estuary]

https://tenor.com/view/akira-leave-me-alone-leave-me-alone-meme-gif-6420351794930725971

[tight trout]

very much so maintained

[worldly tide]

I meant you advocate for ParrotOS

[digital estuary]

amateurs, use TempleOS

[tight trout]

i like it more than kali

[worldly tide]

But ofc, Kali Lincox is the best distro ever.

[ripe sleet]

https://tenor.com/view/do-it-star-wars-emperor-palpatine-palpatine-gif-799657800635657398

[tight trout]

don't daily drive the security edition yadda yadda

but the home edition is cool

ur still gonna be called a skid tho

cause linux users gonna linux

[worldly tide]

Have you used Capa

[brisk ore]

Actually no, don't daily drive Kali or any other distros like it either

Leave that shit to a bootable USB stick or VM

[tight trout]

https://tenor.com/view/fadding-cat-dance-gif-15524768750287997468

[tight trout]

nope

[brisk ore]

The chroot comes in clutch

[quick blaze]

im a skid :3

[sick maple]

what if we use a arch installed calculator

[worldly tide]

Sad, its in cybersecurity 101 and i really dont wanna do it. Specially because it takes a long time to work

[digital estuary]

huh

[worldly tide]

Have you tried capa?

[sick maple]

i was just joking lmao

[digital estuary]

non im far from it

[sick maple]

what is capa

[digital estuary]

😢

im on web hacking module

on SQL

[quick blaze]

https://tryhackme.com/room/capabasics

[digital estuary]

i got 2 more rooms to finish which i will probs leave for tomorrow and ill spend the rest of today probably doing random CTFS

ill do that once i finish SOC level 1 and Jr Pen Tester

[brisk ore]

Average British 14 year old

[digital estuary]

MIKU MIKU BEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

[quick blaze]

the easy challs aren't that hard tbf, but yes if you defo finish SOC 1 and Jr Pen Test you'd be able to solve almost all easy challs

medium though...

don't get me started

🤡

[topaz sedge]

I mean you can do HTB even after cybersecurity 101 but you'll need assistance regardless

[digital estuary]

what about insane...

https://tenor.com/view/uncanny-cat-canny-cat-gif-8275783885171617523

[quick blaze]

forget about it

literally

[brisk ore]

I've never used HTB tbh. I'm still grinding through labs on THM

[quick blaze]

don't even look at the insane ones

[digital estuary]

i looked at them

what will happen

😨

[topaz sedge]

They'll break your confidence

[quick blaze]

THM insane = HTB medium/hard btw

[digital estuary]

WHAT

[topaz sedge]

Yea gotta agree

[digital estuary]

?!?

[brisk ore]

Turn into stone

[digital estuary]

what difficulties are there in htb?

i assume there is no insane or anything like that

[brisk ore]

Jesus

[digital estuary]

... right?

[quick blaze]

Very Easy, Easy, Medium, Hard, Insane

[digital estuary]

Oh...

Oh GOD.

[topaz sedge]

HTB ngl is like the most realistic blackbox pentesting you'll get

[mellow narwhal]

True

[brisk ore]

They weren't kidding when they said HTB was a step up then

[marsh lark]

nope

[mellow narwhal]

I spent 8 hours on an HTB box today. I didn't hack it, it hacked me

[quick blaze]

if you solve HTB insane WITHOUT HELP you're already better than at least half of the hackers on the planet

[topaz sedge]

But it does feel very good when you crack a HTB machine

You get like an adrenaline rush

[brisk ore]

I still struggle on THM easy boxes so still got a long way to go 😅

[topaz sedge]

Not even half
Probably better than 80%

[digital estuary]

i get an adrenaline rush doing any CTF

[mellow narwhal]

I'll take that as a compliment
Current solved like 4 or 5 insane boxes, 1 of them on my own

[digital estuary]

doesnt matter

[mellow narwhal]

and another one nearly close to on my own, but I needed help in the end

[marsh lark]

you're better than 90% of hackers

[quick blaze]

that is crazy

[digital estuary]

im jealous

[marsh lark]

crazy 🙂

[brisk ore]

Honestly the most insane rush I've got was solving a Leetcode medium without any help

[quick blaze]

i was jus tryna undershoot, not break anybody's confidence

[rapid merlin]

Hades

[quick blaze]

but yeah

[mellow narwhal]

Props go to team for being able to crack open insane boxes in a day or two though

[quick blaze]

do NOT mention leetcode

[mellow narwhal]

The insane box I solved on my own took ~a month

[marsh lark]

jezus

[brisk ore]

😭😭

[topaz sedge]

HTB is reputed cause of its difficulty and it's realism

[rapid merlin]

Hadesssss!!! U will pay for ur crimes!

[brisk ore]

It's okay if you have trauma from it lol

[marsh lark]

the most insane rush I had was being 72nd in a Div3 in a Codeforces contest

[marsh lark]

lol why

[topaz sedge]

But yea it should be your endgoal sort of thing

[marsh lark]

Leetcode isn't bad
