general

[steep tangle]

I see, alright thanks

[sinful moon]

But the last time I was doing Bloodhound stuff was prior to this whole change

Honestly, I do a lot of blue team stuff at work and only a bit of offensive, so just a decent AD audit tool like PingCastle/PurpleKnight goes a long way in clearing up low hanging fruit

[blazing granite]

yes, Bloodhound is not a soft I use often but I've heard about the shift

[sinful moon]

PingCastle has been invaluable in helping to secure the couple of AD enviroments we have left, we used to have way more, but you know how things are going

[narrow yew]

Nananananna

[blazing granite]

me too I used to do more blue than red

[steep tangle]

would you guys consider PingCastle to be better than Bloodhound? given that I only have the community edition

[sinful moon]

I found freaking Kerebostable Domain Admin account due to being used to run an SQL service back in the Win 2000 days, which, those servers obviously don't exist anymore.

No, different scope and purpose

Both are AD auditing tools but PingCastle is more focused on "here's some major things wrong with your AD setup", compared to BloodHound which is a good bit more flexable about digging even deeper

[steep tangle]

I see...

what about plumhound?

[sinful moon]

Couldn't tell you, I'm not familiar

[sinful moon]

Anyways that was satisfying as heck to resolve, massive security issue that had been lingering for 20 years

[blazing granite]

probably still out there somewhere, you should be surprised. A few months back I read an article that said that a lot of the air controller still run on win 95 🤣 after reading that I don't want to enter a plain in my life 😛

[sinful moon]

And yeah no real way that would be obvious without actually using auditing tools or doing pentesting

[steep tangle]

I see, thx for the info tho

[night peak]

[sinful moon]

All this being said, I find AD/GPO monumentally easier to manage than Microsoft reinventing (and constantly renaming) the wheel as with Azure/Entra ID

Plus, "whoops, you want this common feature that you had on-prem, guess you need an Entra P2 license for it" and things like that

Or "gotta use Intune for all the things that GPO did better"

[blazing granite]

air controllers is critical software, to update they need to shutdown the airport so the cost of doing that is astronomical, it's a miracle that plains still on the air I must say 🤣

[sinful moon]

Microsoft rarely does something well but AD/GPO is an example of how it was already perfected over 20+ years. And it's just all thrown away. That's not to say it's secure by default, sure isn't, but doesn't take a lot to get it manageable

That's fair, I have some horror stories about administrating airports but won't get too much into that lol

Mostly smaller Fixed Base Operators though vs major public airports though

[pine bison]

I know this is cringe but does anyone have a good idea for what stickers i could put on my laptop? aside from the usual red team, bug bounty etc.

[grizzled sky]

nice! i mostly play retro games on my trimui pro. will have to look into if i can get retroachievements set up with it. latest retro games i have been playing is golden sun and mother 3;

[grizzled sky]

aesthetics is not cringe;

[sinful moon]

imho none, but from a young age when my younger sister put stickers on places they shouldn't go, I've since associated then with "gross"

[grizzled sky]

design is a huge part of what makes life worth living;

[sinful moon]

I can appriciate people who plaster their stuff with stickers but it's not for me

[blazing granite]

asking for stickers recommendation is cringe af 🤣

[sinful moon]

Hey I wouldn't go that far

[grizzled sky]

1 sec while i take a pic of my previous laptop (i still am deciding on stickers for my frameworks laptop i am currently using;

[sinful moon]

But yes, most of them are very self motivated by what tech and culture you are passionate about

no comment :/ (lol this is in reply to a deleted post)

[pine bison]

I'm from south east asia, So far, the only option i found is customized stickers with hologram finish. No one makes actual cybersec stickers

[sinful moon]

If you ask others what they are passionate about, then what are you even gaining by customizing your laptop like that

[blazing granite]

nice I wanted a framework laptop seems like a great idea sadly they don't ship to my country

[sinful moon]

Wow that's packed, but I respect your choices of media and etc

[pine bison]

ooh i would love adventure time. thanks for the ideas

[sinful moon]

Gravity Falls and Adventure Time are for sure among my faves

[grizzled sky]

Aliexpress is great for affordable sticker packs;

[sinful moon]

Needs more Steven Universe and Infinity Train but I am bias as you can see lol

[grizzled sky]

This was like 7 years ago laptop iirc;

[sinful moon]

(my avatar is Tulip from Infinity Train)

Oh and The Owl House, if we continue on the western animation thing

[grizzled sky]

Yup s1-2 i liked, 3 and 4 were a little weird though;

[sinful moon]

obvs love your Ghibli stuff but that goes without saying

Just fewer western animation fans sadly

[sinful moon]

lol of which, we mentioned a couple

[blazing granite]

your profile pic here reminds me of Dora the explorer 🤣

[sinful moon]

hush, again it's a character from Season 1 of Infinity Train

Dora has black hair and is a little hispanic girl anyways

[grizzled sky]

one of the things i most want to do with my quest headset is play around with virtual posters;

basically turn my walls with ar into postered walls using the various memes and posters i have saved;

[sinful moon]

or you know, you could do that irl, even in rented apartments without damage

[blazing granite]

I know but somehow that pic gives me Dora the explorer vibes 🤣 maybe it's just me because I have no idea what Infinity Train is 🙂

[grizzled sky]

i did back in uni, i don't have the mobility i used to;

[sinful moon]

Probably because it's been delisted saldy and flew under the radar as a result

[grizzled sky]

plus i like vr, its a part of the real world too;

[sinful moon]

HBO/Warner Brothers wanted a tax writeoff and not paying royalties :/

[grizzled sky]

real just means it exists, not that its materially existing;

that's why ideas are real even if they are all in our heads;

[grizzled sky]

memories are absolutely real too;

[sinful moon]

that is a huge ghost for sure

[wispy geyser]

I love this android feature

[grizzled sky]

anyway its something i do with mindpalaces already, so doing it with ar is the next logical step for me;

a friend of mine is working on stardust, a linux based xr os;

[blazing granite]

that's not Casper 🤣

[sinful moon]

Honestly besides getting to experience Rez in VR, nothing has really capitvated me

[grizzled sky]

one of the features i am most excited for is ar desktops and walls, where you can spacially arrange digital posters and even 3d video in space;

[sinful moon]

But fair we have much older VR hardware

[grizzled sky]

look up boneworks;

also if you like anime, highly recomend the series dennou coil;

[sinful moon]

I don't think you understand, Rez is a synthenisa inducing full sensory experience that was only enhanced by VR

[grizzled sky]

to me that series is what i envision when i think of what xr is capable of;

[sinful moon]

Maybe I misunderstand what it is, I just heard it was like VR chat or something

[grizzled sky]

if you just want cool vibes, the tetris vr game is good apparently;

[grizzled sky]

boneworks is a full narative video game;

[sinful moon]

Tetris Effect? That's by the creator of Rez, yes

[blazing granite]

with vr you can have blockout 🙂

[sinful moon]

VR is just too much hassle and I refuse to sell my soul once again to Facebook after I broke all ties with them years ago

[grizzled sky]

that's why i like stardust;

completely linux based alternative os;

its still work in progress but i am big friends with the dev for it and it gives me hope for what xr can be;

[sinful moon]

I'm not giving Meta/Facebook any money to even entertain the idea

[grizzled sky]

you don't need to use a quest to do vr;

there's other options;

[sinful moon]

That's fair, I just don't have a great need for it

[grizzled sky]

i happened to get a quest but that was a used referbished one;

and yeah for me i got it to help with testing vr on linux;

and to play escape room simulator;

[blazing granite]

blockout with vr sounds great 🙂

[grizzled sky]

vr atm is the main games i play that aren't retro;

besides genshin impact;

but that game is literally free for me;

i just play the game and explore the zones and i have gotten nearly every character i wanted in the game so far;

[sinful moon]

No comment

[sinful moon]

My feelings about gacha games are too complex

[grizzled sky]

huh looks like i can add retroachieves to my trimui pro;

might try adding an account so that it keeps track of the games i am playing on it and its achievements;

[sinful moon]

If you do, feel free to add me, but yeah this is old school so I have to add you back lol

For it to be reciprical

[blazing granite]

I'm not into games at all, for me game = solitaire or mahjongg, once I used to play carmen san diego, sim city and civilization 🙂

[grizzled sky]

also looks like it doesn't count it while i'm on the bus playing it unfortunately. ah well all the more reason for me to set up my gaming pc with retroarch so i can play it at the couch as well;

[grizzled sky]

i love board games;

to this day tabletop is some of my fav experiences in gaming;

[sinful moon]

I mean those are great games, yet you mention being huge into Genshin so, I mean that is a major mainstream game too

[grizzled sky]

unstable unicorns is a game i play a lot;

[grizzled sky]

nah that was me;

[sinful moon]

Yes I played a ton of tabletop RPGs with friends back in the day

[blazing granite]

board games I used to play chess and go when I was a child

[grizzled sky]

yeah i still want to learn go in more depth;

[sinful moon]

Oh I just saw the yellow and Replied to the wrong person lolol

[grizzled sky]

i know chess but there's so much bots and people who play chess online lately i feel like if i don't read books i can't even play at average levels;

also i am bad at memorizing;

[blazing granite]

a sea of yellow 🤣

[sinful moon]

Yeah I would rather not memorize a ton of Chess openings and etc lol

[grizzled sky]

i used to be good at it with memory palace stuff but haven't been practicing since too busy with notes;

luckily logseq has made notes a lot easier and i can use that to help journal;

[blazing granite]

I used to be a member of a chess club when I was a child/teen

[sinful moon]

hate how much that term is associated with freaking awful Steve Moffat Sherlock

[grizzled sky]

same, i was the worst of the school lol;

[dark wolf]

Play bleu in chess

[sinful moon]

It's very hard for me to hear memory palace and not think of Steve Moffat's awful showrunning but that's just my opinion lol

[grizzled sky]

its a real thing not just a tv trope;

its basically just the brain spacializing memories to make it easier to recall them;

[sinful moon]

Yes but it's been co-opted over the years in a way that I find distasteful and tumblrish

[dark wolf]

you didn't tell me you were working on a phd violet

[grizzled sky]

lol i'm not;

[dark wolf]

i'll add getting it set up on the 2 devices i game on most as a thing to work on tomorrow;

[sinful moon]

I get it, but I still personally dislike the phrase due to the normie pre-conceptions and how it's been memed. I do personally think I am on the spectrum with how insane I get with my obsessions amongst other things, but to be fair I have never been diagnosed as such

[grizzled sky]

i mean its a spectrum so most people are at least somewhere on that spectrum;

[sinful moon]

lol I don't think I can even add you when you have a blank profile

[grizzled sky]

its cause i need to verify my email apparently;

will have to check which one i used for it;

[dark wolf]

Random question incoming.

Hypothetical too.

[blazing granite]

General is in the house 🤣

[autumn crypt]

Hey...is there anyone in here have done Windows Event Logs room?

[dark wolf]

Say you worked at a gas station and another country was invading your country, and one of the attacking countries tanks rolled up to the gas pump in your country at the gas station you worked at and came in and wanted to buy gas. What would you do?

[sinful moon]

I used to work with ASD populations in education and health care and for some reason I bonded and did amazingly well with those individuals. But way back then I was told no, having a ton of empathy invalidates you. Obviously we have learned much more since then and I've had to re-evaluate things

[dark wolf]

Oh I'm on a spectrum allright

[grizzled sky]

i could answer but i worry it would be politically charged lol;

[blazing granite]

how much money are we talking about? 🤣

[sinful moon]

lol

[frozen gull]

https://www.ettercap-project.org/bugs.html

[dark wolf]

I just meant buy gas like a normal customer

acting like nothings wrong

[sinful moon]

If you require some assistance we have #room-help. But honestly Event Logs are not too hard to parse and filter and most rooms have guides and writeups

[frozen gull]

anyone here uses ettercap

and knows to emuulate it

[blazing granite]

f off 🤣

whew that's a name I haven't heard in a long time

Yo gm!

Since Badboi and Jack aren’t on Discord anymore, the #general chat feels dead. They were the ones giving it life. Now it’s just full of dumb trolls asking nonsense, so the smart people end up leaving because of the idiots.

[rain socket]

Why they leave

[slow cloud]

They might just have stuff to do

[night peak]

I’m not really sure what the reason is, but based on my observation, there are too many crazy people asking stuff in the chat, maybe that’s why it’s stressing them out.

[slow cloud]

oh damn jack left

[night peak]

Or maybe they’re just busy with whatever they’re doing.

a few things to check
#1: are you using the attackbox or using your own vm?
#2: if you are using your own vm, are you connected to the vpn?
#3: what do you mean by you can't reach the ip?
#4: how long did you wait for the machine to boot up?

Hey team

Can anybody help me with a coupon to subscribe for tryhackme for a year or month

[slow cloud]

what do you need help with @kindred pulsar

[kindred pulsar]

Is there running promo for coupons to subscribe for tryhackme

[marsh lark]

not right now I believe

[kindred pulsar]

Damn it 🤧

[marsh lark]

there is a student discount for annual

[kindred pulsar]

Okay, how do I get that ??

[marsh lark]

you need to be a student

[kindred pulsar]

I’m a student, I already signed up and I’m doing the course in Cybersecurity penetration testing

But I need to subscribe to continue

[marsh lark]

then if you get annual and set yourself as a student in your settings, then you get 20% off

[slow cloud]

i think you need to change the email of your account to your student email and then you can get the annual savings

if your school email is not recognized contact support

what a coincidence

[lone thistle]

🫶 thanks for the nice feedback, I'll pass it on, but you can't forget your own efforts. You put in the time and efffort, that should be celebrated 🙂

[twin ridge]

Gave +1 Rep to @eager marsh (current: #532 - 13)

[lone thistle]

heh yeah. I love PyTorch

so flexible

[marsh lark]

are you running it locally?

or through smth like google collab?

[lone thistle]

locally for dev

[marsh lark]

ah, nice 🙂

[lone thistle]

plus Ollama but yeah pytorch locally

[marsh lark]

oooooo ollama

I'm guessing either you're creating an AI model, testing an AI model, or fine tuning an AI model

[lone thistle]

all of the above 😄

[marsh lark]

BINGOOOOOOO

[lone thistle]

creating & training an AI model, that uses llama3.1 16b for user inference, via pytorch 🙂

training for some very specific context

[marsh lark]

ahh, nice nice 🙂

[marsh lark]

makes sense

[lone thistle]

😄

all good fun

[marsh lark]

yup 🙂

[lone thistle]

electricity company will love me over the next 2 weeks

[marsh lark]

but while learning AI stuff, realized I need to know calculus

[marsh lark]

[lone thistle]

24/7 running for training etc

[marsh lark]

ahh

sooo much energy

which GPUs are you using?

[lone thistle]

RTX 3090 for dev, has a lot of cuda cores

[marsh lark]

oooooo nice, nice

[lone thistle]

loking to offload to cloud A100s for prod / refinement

[marsh lark]

nicee

is it for THM or some other project?

[lone thistle]

Maybe H100s

we'll see

THM 🙂

[marsh lark]

ah

have fun 🙂

[lone thistle]

likewise!

im training via CNNS atm

[marsh lark]

ahh, neural networks

[lone thistle]

need to" populate" to offload for prod where it's X/Y/Z does A/B/C

jus training the

"X/Y/Z = A/B/C"

[marsh lark]

huh

ahh

[lone thistle]

as in like

"this means that etc"

[marsh lark]

I got it

yeah 🤣

I thought it too literally

[lone thistle]

then prod will have the trained model

[marsh lark]

-# will I get early access

me wanna see this PyTorch trained AI model 🤣

[lone thistle]

heh, potentially not, but it's for something very fun 🙂

[marsh lark]

I'll be looking forward to it 🙂

[lone thistle]

🙂 I wish I could say more haha

it'll be fun

[marsh lark]

lol

but it gotta be a secret for now

[lone thistle]

alas yes 🙁

[marsh lark]

that way it is a surprise

unless I ask skidy if I can get early access 🤣

[lone thistle]

think of it like a blue team assistant and a "auto solver" for a challenge

with source code review

[marsh lark]

I see

-# you sure you aren't giving too much info?

[lone thistle]

hah

nope 🙂

[marsh lark]

ah

don't want you out of your job 🤣

[lone thistle]

heh, thanks for the consideration, me neither

I am careful about how I word things 😄

[marsh lark]

nice 🙂

[lone thistle]

whattya pytorching?

[marsh lark]

just learning

currently about how to save your models through google collab (since it disconnects and you lose your progress with your model)

[grim widget]

yo quick question: Is it better to setup hardware intensive stuff (like john or hashcat) on my base machine instead of the kali vm which I use to solve rooms?

[marsh lark]

don't use your base machine for tryhackme rooms

thats my suggestion

you will be connecting to the VPN, which is full of hackers (technically, it is illegal and against the ToS to scan and hack other users)

but you always gotta be careful 🙂

so, in simple terms: use a kali vm

[grim widget]

im not doing that. Just asking for hashcracking tools

[lone thistle]

John is CPU-based, so it's whatever your assign CPU-wise to your VM

Hashcat is GPU (plus CPU based), so much quicker, but requires pass-through (i..e need to run T1 hypervisor such as esxi/hyper-v )

While I don't recc using your base machine for THM stuff, (or any cybersecurity platforms), I personally copy hashes/etc/ outside of the VM and crack via Hashcat etc on my host to make use of the hardware

[grim widget]

thanks. Was my first impulse as well to do it like that

[twin ridge]

Gave +1 Rep to @lone thistle (current: #10 - 942)

[lone thistle]

Yup 🙂

Use VM to collect the hashes

crack on host/base

would be my recc

especially NTLM etc

[mossy river]

Pretty sure Bee had a Discord bot hooked up to a supercomputer to crack hashes or something on those lines 😄

Just Bee things ✨

[marsh lark]

wow

[lone thistle]

StH

that shii was wild

but (very basically and not doing it enough credit) a massive DB of hashes

[loud orbit]

Is this only US based ?

[eager marsh]

I believe so

Don’t quote me though

[sturdy sequoia]

Is that what rainbow tables are?

[loud orbit]

Damnnnn

[mossy river]

I think this was a separate thing for CTFs

Might be switching the person up but it would rent a supercomputer everytime you used the bot to crack a hash

[lone thistle]

rainbow tables are more like reverse engineering the hash to find a possible "answer" compared to what the output of the hash is

like if you know x/y/z hash does it this way, reverse engineer it basically until you find the plaintext. a very TLDR thing

[sturdy sequoia]

Oh I thought rainbow tables were like a pre generated database so you could do a brute force like a dictionary attack

[lone thistle]

so if a hash algorithm does "hello" in a certain way, you can step back and find out the hash that gives you "hello" basically

[lone thistle]

sorta, but more like, databases to reconstruct a hash

[sturdy sequoia]

Interesting. Thanks

[twin ridge]

Gave +1 Rep to @lone thistle (current: #10 - 943)

[sturdy sequoia]

would that work with WPA2 hashes? or is that different?

[lone thistle]

sites like crackstation work because they have a big DB of hashes already cracked, TLDR

i.e. they know that certain hash = text

[sturdy sequoia]

yer i just assumed crackstation used rainbow tables

[lone thistle]

WPA2s are salted, so not quite so, rainbow tables wouldn't work, you'd need the capture the handshake to auth etc

[sturdy sequoia]

thats what i thought 🙁

[lone thistle]

like for example you can have two wireless networks named "CMNatic" & "ben" that use the same password bob1 to login

cracking/how the hash is stored would be different as it it's salted, so, for example, same password, different networks, looks entirely different

[sturdy sequoia]

so it would only work if you were planning on cracking the same AP name

[lone thistle]

basically yeah, but the AP itself

you're looking at the router/access point specifically

then there's the whole WPA2-PSK stuff for APs etc

gets a bit complicated heh

so you can focus on the SSID, you might just have APs that are "relays" for connectivity, it's the same salt

[sturdy sequoia]

yer i guess at that point its not even worth considering

[lone thistle]

you're better off capturing the handshake between client / router/ap / rogue APing and some other things that I dont think are quite for this channel

😄

[sturdy sequoia]

yer all good. thats what i already do but im always on the lookout for new methods

[lone thistle]

🙂

if you can crack PBKDF2 reliably and fast, there'd be a lot of people interested 😄

[sturdy sequoia]

im not that smart. ill just wait for someone else to do it 🙂

[lone thistle]

Guys I am curious where does people get data leaks for free

Anyone know

[sturdy sequoia]

what?

[haughty lark]

Data breach leaks

[marsh lark]

those are illegal

[sturdy sequoia]

that sounds illegal

[haughty lark]

My friend go them

So for education purposes only

[sturdy sequoia]

thats not how education works

[marsh lark]

that won't be for "educational purposes only"

there is no need to "get data leaks"

you can understand what they are, but getting the data from that is unethical and illegal

and no way can be used for "only eduational purposes"

[sturdy sequoia]

heres a tip: dont ask random people in a public discord server to help you with illegal activity

[marsh lark]

don't ask people to help you with illegal activity period 😄

[sturdy sequoia]

haha also a good rule to follow

they should teach it in school

[wheat hare]

Yeah, you gotta go find a dark web forum for help that, and good luck not just becoming part of the data that is leaked when you do 👀

[sturdy sequoia]

is there much, or any, thm rooms that are focused on attacking client side stuff?

been having issues with my old u530 lol

[distant robin]

I bought from Laptops Direct

[mossy river]

get a thinkpad

dont buy anything that advertises as "gaming"

[distant robin]

Any reason for that?

[analog sinew]

TAG check

[native pulsar]

I won’t be gaming on it anyway but I’d think it should be fairly powerful cause I’m doing cybersecurity and forensics at uni

[mossy river]

bumping the price for low quality components, rgb or otherwise taking advantage of people who don't understand components

[mossy river]

Thinkpad

[distant robin]

Lol I have a background in IT hardware and software so I know what I have bought.

It is better than my desktop which is 1 down from it.

[native pulsar]

I embarrassingly do not have any idea what I’m looking for, I owned a laptop once when I was like 12 to play Roblox but my little brother broke it lmao

[distant robin]

The normal price for this laptop would have be over £1000

[mossy river]

My advice wasn't specific to any purchase you have made 😅

Dual-booting? I used to do that on my desktop with 2 hard drives. I need to find out if I can add a 2nd ssd to my laptop

I had to create a dual boot loader for Linux and Windows

[analog sinew]

yeah, thought about getting another laptop but came across doing this. saves money and less baggage travelling around. my laptop is 18inch

[distant robin]

Truth to that

[native pulsar]

Ill need to try do some research but I don’t even know where to start lol

[mossy river]

Well first you need to understand what you're expecting to get out of the hardware

Do you need lots of storage? Do you need high RAM?

Are you going to be using more CPU intensive tasks? Or will you require a dedicated GPU? (Laptops usually use integrated graphics)

Are you going to be running AI? NVidia is better for AI than AMD

From doing a Cyber degree, I'd probably invest more into CPU and memory than GPU

[native pulsar]

I need lil bro to get me through my degree 🥲

[mossy river]

And don't cheap out on storage, you'll use a lot across your degree. You might be able to get away with buying a small drive for Windows but then buying an external hard drive to put all your university work on

That way you can also access your work on the Uni or Library computers

[marsh lark]

+1

you're gonna neeeeed that storage

don't make the mistake Jabba's gf did

-# or I guess her friend anyway

[mossy river]

We were comparing my specs with hers

and I crashed out on her using a hdd 🤣

[marsh lark]

I just understood what coding is doing to me

I saw HDD as HLD

a coding data structure

[native pulsar]

Would getting like a new windows laptop be good? I’ve got some savings from my part time job+dsa and my saas

[marsh lark]

🤣

[native pulsar]

So I could hopefully get a pretty powerful laptop

[mossy river]

Yes do Windows host

VM Linux don't daily drive it

[native pulsar]

I’m still learning what most of the computer parts actually do 😅

[mossy river]

Look at Thinkpads

Good performance for cost and they're reliable

No, you also need practice with projects and writeups, and it expererience, and ideally certs too;

[grizzled sky]

Then you can move towards networking and cyber;

not necessarily no

got a helpdesk role without prior internships or certs

[grizzled sky]

Depends, the cert itself most people dont care as long as you know the knowlege from it;

[trail sequoia]

but how do i prove the knowledge? projects are enough?

[grizzled sky]

Helpdesk is entry level;

They might test you in the interview but its not a hard job to get usually;

[modest charm]

certificates gets you interviews... thats the hr filter... then knowledge will be tested in the interview for sure

[grizzled sky]

At help desk level in practice most people dont care about a+ ;

Its mostly just that you know the foundation;

[trail sequoia]

so, what should i do?

[grizzled sky]

If you get a first cert, have it be ccna or network+;

[trail sequoia]

what should i study mainly because right now i just can complete a few thm ctfs lol

[grizzled sky]

Then from there work towards security +;

[hoary kettle]

[grizzled sky]

Security jobs arent likely to hire based on ctf participation alone;

[trail sequoia]

So should i get a cert or just study without getting any sort of cert?

[grizzled sky]

Tldr: learn the content from a+ using professor messer course online;

[trail sequoia]

that's it?

[grizzled sky]

Then apply for help desk;

Then learn network;

[delicate edge]

I have a dumb question, how can yall afford the premium sub?

[mortal ether]

A lot of countries, looking for vulnerabilities isn't allowed without permission. But some countries like mine recently gave more legal protection to ethical hackers. Don't always need permission under certain conditions

[lost pelican]

Pay for that sub, or find a way to earn money yourself to the subscription.
No one wanna sponsor someone they dont know.
