[topaz steeple]

[muted vector]

[distant robin]

Why?

[muted vector]

its basically just saying fuck you to microsoft

basically "stop taking my data"

[distant robin]

Yeah I saw that lol

[topaz steeple]

finally

[muted vector]

i might use winhance

[distant robin]

Sorry my brain is not braining now.

[tired wolf]

if its such a concern, why not migrate to linux?

[muted vector]

i need a ssd.

i want to move my important files

to an ssd

[river garden]

[tired wolf]

every device of mine runs linux in one form of another

Hi folks! I’ve been working on AI-driven crypto products: smarter trading dashboards, on-chain analytics summaries, and assistants that explain contracts/transactions in plain English. Big on safety and transparency. Excited to learn what you’re building.

okay

oh sorry misread that. For me thm is enought right now though

I have stuff i have to do for work too

one project at a time is usually enought for me so i don't start a bunch of things and never finish them

[tired wolf]

Use kali-undercover, or kali-undercover --halloween

kali-undercover disguises your kali with a windows look. The --halloween switch gives it a halloween theme 😛

[proven quartz]

You're welcome to use blackarch or pentoo if you like

[tired wolf]

for pentest work?

i’ve hardly ever seen any of my colleagues use anything aside from kali

(one guy uses ubuntu)

[proven quartz]

Well the thing about a pentesting distro is that you only need it to be stable until you get the data you need for your report. You would be starting a new pentest with a fresh machine. But essentially whatever works. And yeah a lot of people use Ubuntu or similar. Whatever is stable and effective

[tired wolf]

yeaahhh i snapshot a distro anytime i need to use it for a project

[river garden]

im here

[tired wolf]

i might need to update the images though

/ the channels

its been a fair few months

[river garden]

hi here, i'm Zack

[loud marlin]

did you just reply to you self ?

[river garden]

would never

[half relic]

that's what i was wondering

[river garden]

thats a different guy

[half relic]

okay

[tired wolf]

he replied to here, didnt he?

[river garden]

thats what he introduced himself as yeah

[proven quartz]

Yeah I keep snapshots of my machine, occasionally a clone incase things go funny

[tired wolf]

i have funny vm experiences with certain distros up to the point of me giving up and installing them on a spare laptop i have

(notably nixos)

[proven quartz]

Yeah some distros have their own funny quirks. Always good to have a safe place to see their funny behaviours

[tired wolf]

im building a covert hardware implant as part of an internal RT development project and using nixos as the host distro

much because we only need to configure it once

it being an already niche distro has it's effects when paired up with an aarch64 architecture raspbi

[proven quartz]

Yeah I can imagine it's quite funny. Nice little experiment. I remember using a few RPis in a data centre to do some monitoring. Their failure rate was quite high but it was an interesting test

[tired wolf]

It'd be nice if raspberries were to get better support all around

almost everything i end up needing to do, has either never been documented before or is not possible on a raspberry

[proven quartz]

Always fun going down a rabbit hole like that and being the first to do it. Interesting to be an explorer in new domains

[tired wolf]

Then in the end, choosing whether to write documentation or not....

[proven quartz]

Always good to make notes as you're doing something. How well you organise them is up to you, but even though it can be a tedious task at times, knowing precisely what you did will make it easier the next time. Of course, sometimes that just means keeping a backup of certain config files, sometimes putting notes about it in those files, and sometimes a long, rambling runbook document with screenshots and notes and discussions of what particular settings do

[odd knoll]

Hi

[proven quartz]

A lot of the time, making notes, you never read those notes again. But sometimes making notes means you have a deeper understanding. Pretty much what you're doing when you study as well... And handwriting some notes, even a few keywords can be very helpfuil

[odd knoll]

I need help to land my first job in soc analyst L1

Confusing in choosing technology

Splunk or sentinel

I have comptia security+ and tryhackme soc level 1 hands on but still I didn't get any interview message

What can I do does any thing I need to do more

[muted nova]

https://tenor.com/view/dog-sniff-gif-3199815179106739551

[proven quartz]

You should do the SOC L1 path, and/or the recommended learning for the SAL1. Knowing the theory is the main objective. Maybe consider doing the SAL1 certification. The tools you actually use in different comanies can differ, but they're similar enough that either will do. Playing with both would be better though

[muted nova]

Nahh 😭😭

[proven quartz]

https://help.tryhackme.com/en/articles/6495858-discord-how-do-i-verify-my-tryhackme-account

I can't afford to buy SAL1 EXAM 😶

Any other way to make me high possible to land job

[tired wolf]

i do document everything related to the project for my successors

[river garden]

what u want katie

are you genuinely interested in working a soc role or are you just following some career roadmap

[proven quartz]

Aim for the L2 stuff as well. No harm in being better than expected

Anyone messing around with networking equipment, need a kinda simple little router for my office to mess around with, VLANs and stuff. Was thinking Mikrotik, don't wanna go all out with Ciscos and their premiums. Anyone got any suggestions?

[quaint ferry]

i have the isp provideed one from 2014 if that makes you fell superior

12 down 0.1 up

[slim ember]

I had this until today lol my parents allowed me to remake the house's network and got me a better router alongside a switch and some stuff

[topaz topaz]

so do I, it's just that in my office that won't quite cut it as I need environment isolation for malware analysis

[topaz topaz]

That's beautiful, congrats!

[slim ember]

Only problem is that the modem is integrated in the isp router so its on bridge mode which slightly bottlenecks the router but its whatever

[quaint ferry]

the other home have wifi 6 one with a wpa3 so it's kinda better also its fiber

they dont let you change it in my country

[slim ember]

If i may ask

You've heard of DownDetector.com - The site that tells you when things go down. But what if DownDetector goes down!? That's where Down Detector's DownDetector comes into play.

[elder marsh]

can grab a small office router level thing - C1111-4P is mine of choice; still has updates & is pretty decent for playing around

just make sure to have a console cable

when it comes to coding i must kindly disapear cus i dont know nothing

then e.g. c++

[wintry zealot]

Im miserable

[half relic]

i think literally half the class dropped the c++ class in my community college

[quaint ferry]

hello mate

[half relic]

there was an option to use java instead

so they probably did that

[quaint ferry]

[half relic]

but even in the university i never had to write a compiler

nah, you must know atleast printf("Hello world");, System.out.print("Hello word");, or print("hello world")

html 5 was out but it used xhtml

i made a horribly ugly web site lol

i don't know what i was thinking lol

good thing i didn't take graphic design lol

[quaint ferry]

i made websites but i needed wordpress and elementor

[half relic]

i did make someone a website for his business with wordpress that looked okay, but he abandoned it

he did work on my house so i made him a website

[languid aurora]

i dont like webdevving but ive sworn to myself to never use wordpress or wix. I just dont like the idea of drag and dropping than actually creating something yourself.

[half relic]

i know what you mean, but you can get a fully funcitonal website up fast

[quaint ferry]

some people dont want to take time much and do more freelance

i did that with my freind

[half relic]

and the important thing for him was he could make changes himeself and not be dependant on me

he's a cursor addict now

[languid aurora]

vibe coder

[quaint ferry]

yeah he dished all his jobs to vibecode apps

[half relic]

i know you can make it editable by the end user but why reinvent the wheel

[languid aurora]

cuz cool

and experience learning from the process

[river garden]

i dont like the ai ides; once you go cc u dont go back

i must learn python this year no matter what

[languid aurora]

u can do it

[quaint ferry]

1k for an app is huger in my country that's why he does it

[half relic]

i think i want to learn more bash but i keep second guessing if its worthwhile

[river garden]

no, i just mean claude code > ai ides like cursor

[languid aurora]

im learning 2 languages atm

[quaint ferry]

i understand what you mean that's why i need to learn scripting so i dont use dolphin

[half relic]

which 2

[quaint ferry]

if you had to teach me how to learn it what would you recommend ?

[languid aurora]

python (for personal stuff) and java (cuz uni curriculum)

[half relic]

ah i used to know java but i forgot a lot of it

i like the documentation

[languid aurora]

1. bro code on youtube. dont just watch passively but follow along with your ide.
2. ask AI to give you problems/idea to code. DONT ASK FOR THE SOLUTION.
3. hop on code wars.

[half relic]

swing is terrible though

[quaint ferry]

also is boot.dev decent or a waste of time on free tier

[languid aurora]

JOptionPane is kinda fun. first time experimenting with gui

yes

[distant robin]

and I would appreciate some feedback before I post it online

[quaint ferry]

oh nyo dont steam ly points

[distant robin]

Good luck, atoon.

[distant robin]

I can send it to you too for a try

[quaint ferry]

im on the cryptography section so sure

[loud marlin]

@quaint ferry first print. not totally ok. but now i making changes

[sly pelican]

sup guys

[candid merlin]

how’s it working out for you? i wanted to do software development but last minute found out cyber security always been my passion

someone PLEASE i need eJPT study material so i stop being a lazy bum

[gritty bane]

just

start hacking

there is no magic material that will help you get better

go study and put it into practice

there is no secret sauce

[quaint ferry]

best of luck too mate

[proven quartz]

Do their course. Do the THM paths. Get the work done. Sitting down and doing the work is the only way to do it

[ivory saddle]

why be a virgin DevOps when you can be a chad DevSecOps

[distant robin]

@quaint ferry you given up?

@gritty bane took 10 minutes to crack it

[ivory saddle]

on an unrelated note, i did a thing today

its time for sc-200

[tardy dome]

hi

[loud marlin]

i have hash for ppl to crack =/

[gritty bane]

i love crack

[ivory saddle]

cristal better

[loud marlin]

crack this

[ivory saddle]

thats gonna take john the ripper approximately 350 years

[gritty bane]

ragebait...?!?!?!!

[loud marlin]

nop... real hash to crack. 7z

[gritty bane]

are you serious

i think it will go through like 5 phrases per second with jtr 😂

[oblique harness]

hashcat > john 🙂

[gritty bane]

hashcat is uglyyyyy

[loud marlin]

i'm even thinking to rent grpu server and do it. is nothing important, jsut wish it

[loud marlin]

@polar spoke !!! lol

[gritty bane]

if you do that can you also crack a rar file for me

[loud marlin]

make it nice lol

[gritty bane]

i have lost media from like 1990s of a cool local betting app

[gritty bane]

its just my preference

i dont like hashcat ui xD im more comfortable with john

[oblique harness]

its like.. i HATE ffuf, i prefer gobuster 🙂

[loud marlin]

i'm just burning chik3nman. he is one of creators of hashcat

[gritty bane]

who would hate ffuf

[gritty bane]

i know

[oblique harness]

the sintaxe makes my head hurtttttttt same thing with hydra

[gritty bane]

huuuh

you are just not used to them

ffuf is easy as hell man

i prefer using ffuf over gobuster xD

gobuster can make it easy but ffuf is more flexible with anything web related

[oblique harness]

uhmm makes sense

[quaint ferry]

this has to be ragebait lol

[gritty bane]

??????????

literally a few days of grinding thm crypto rooms you will solve this in less time

[river ore]

hey hey

today has been a good day

[candid merlin]

the thing is learning random hacking stuff won’t get me certified

[gritty bane]

its not about random

build a foundation first

[river ore]

we all have to start somewhere yanno

[gritty bane]

if you want you can subscribe to thm but god forbid that happens it will give you a solid foundation

[river ore]

i mean some ppl cant afford a sub but there is plaenty of free rooms on here

[distant robin]

You put a lot of salt in it lol

[gritty bane]

sadly all of the informative ones are premium

[candid merlin]

real

[gritty bane]

i think this may help

https://github.com/uttambodara/TryHackMeRoadmap

[loud marlin]

if i did it i will not need to crack it 🙂

[fading perch]

MORNING ALL

[distant robin]

Ok let me have at it

[river ore]

hello

[loud marlin]

nah. don't even try. it is not english password 90% in first place

[candid merlin]

i love you so much bro i wanna kiss you

thank you so much

[gritty bane]

please dont

[candid merlin]

fine

[river ore]

woah woah

whos kissig who in here

[gritty bane]

i am kissing my cat on the head

[candid merlin]

@gritty bane said he wanna kiss me smh

[quaint ferry]

the motivation i told you earlier now i feel like im needing it

[river ore]

i knew atoon was that person lol

[gritty bane]

whaaaaaaaaat

????!!!!

[distant robin]

Lol well I did download a file of it but it seems to be an image file

[candid merlin]

atoon you don’t know it but that github might’ve just changed my life rn

[fading perch]

yeah you need support system

[candid merlin]

so if i ever land a cyber job ill find you first thing

[gritty bane]

trust me

you will need a miracle from god himself if you wanna find a job

[loud marlin]

is 7z, but yea when donwlaod is iso

[quaint ferry]

wallahi im dumb

[distant robin]

Yes but when I open it in Notepad++ it's all garbled

[quaint ferry]

@distant robin what is that compression winrar, 7zip, winzip or windows sucks asss

[candid merlin]

heyyy why say that. is it that bad

it depends your country no?

[distant robin]

Zip

[gritty bane]

probably not as bad as i am making it but it is not a good state right now

[distant robin]

Winzip

[loud marlin]

you need to extract from .7z

[quaint ferry]

bruuh

[loud marlin]

you can't just open it

[quaint ferry]

the worst one lol

[candid merlin]

pen testing / red teaming specifically? really?

[distant robin]

I mean atoon managed to unzip it fine

[gritty bane]

they are in high demand worldwide ofc

[candid merlin]

i always thought cyber jobs are easy to land i mean they’re not as competitive as software development degrees

[distant robin]

It has to be you @quaint ferry

[gritty bane]

but the thing is the demand is for people with skill not just the average dude

[gritty bane]

https://tenor.com/view/sorry-bro-hand-on-shoulder-gif-11963500747147243380

cyber jobs.. easy.. LOOOOL

[river ore]

lol

[half relic]

why do you say that? i always thought it was worse

[candid merlin]

so ur telling me my OSCP cert will get me into a warehouse job

[distant robin]

You thought wrong, it is very competitive in the market

[sand trench]

anyways shadow is now gonna go take a bit long multi hour nap where they go sleep sloop to the beep boop while meep mooping

[gritty bane]

oscp is kinda the bare minimum for an offensive position

[candid merlin]

BARE MINIMUM?

[gritty bane]

yes

there are other factors

[candid merlin]

isn’t oscp like the father of all these certs bro what

[gritty bane]

such as publicly disclosed work

bug bounties, projects, ctfs

[distant robin]

Good night, beep boop meep moop sleep sloop

[candid merlin]

you guys are killing me

[gritty bane]

by itself it will get you noticed but may not be enough for a job

[half relic]

man i hate looking for any job

[gritty bane]

unfortunately the way these corporate idiots think is very bizarre

[river ore]

facts

[half relic]

that seems to apply to any job too

[candid merlin]

here i thought id be able to make a cv after getting eJPT and PT1 atleast

[gritty bane]

https://tenor.com/view/jgmm-monkey-think-monkey-meme-ponder-monkey-idea-gif-6401133862108294696

they just prove you know the basics

[distant robin]

Mostly corporate jobs

[gritty bane]

dont waste money on them

no point

[candid merlin]

i just wanna stack them up. they do boost your cv from an average joe

[gritty bane]

ok man if you have spare pocket change lying around go for it

[half relic]

i remember looking for my first job and they all wanted things like experience using a cash register and counting money that anyone can do

[gritty bane]

but i would not recommend it personally

i would take it if it was given to me for free but i am not paying money to prove i can do something 😂

[candid merlin]

then how would you say someone gets a job in cyber without atleast going for certs? i mean im in first year uni rn

[gritty bane]

man

lowk

dont think about it too much

for now just enjoy it

[distant robin]

Employers pay for that shit

[gritty bane]

forget job this job that

it can be fun if you are going at it your own pace

but unfortunately for me i have grey hairs at the age of 19 and am slowly balding

[distant robin]

Right I am out of here. It's 1am and I need to get some sleep

[candid merlin]

i turned 20 a month ago 😂

[gritty bane]

it is not fun for me cause i take it competitively

big mistake

dont do that

[candid merlin]

that’s actually a mistake i wanna do

[half relic]

my cousin went bald before he graduated from college but it made him look more like a scientist which he was

[gritty bane]

dont

not worth it

[candid merlin]

being competitive in a field like this is worth it ngl

[gritty bane]

it is good to always strive to be better than your current level but

[candid merlin]

always trying to be better than the rest

[gritty bane]

competitive shit is unhealthy for the mental health

[sand mason]

https://tenor.com/view/eggman-dr-eggman-dr-robotnik-grin-evil-smile-gif-6322877342430580680

is this your cousin

[half relic]

not quite

[gritty bane]

you will always want to be better than one guy then when you are better than him you look to the next guy and so on

[candid merlin]

it is not healthy yes. but it is good for growth

[gritty bane]

never ending cycle

[gritty bane]

AT WHAT COOOOSTTTTT

MY HEALTH IS MORE IMPORTANT

[candid merlin]

at the cost of you feeling like a bad person because all you do is compete

the pro outweighs the cons bro

keep going

compete and show you’re better than everyone

have that ego

[gritty bane]

then you will die at the age of 40 from stress and a heart attack

gg

[candid merlin]

But you aren’t 40 yet

by then you’ve known all you wanna know

probably planning retirement

[gritty bane]

at the cost of giving up the best years of my life

gg

[candid merlin]

but seriously thanks for that github bro i’m on it rn

good information

[arctic spruce]

GitHub?

And hello 👋

[narrow yew]

set up a homelab so you hve something to talk about during interviews

[candid merlin]

blue!

[narrow yew]

mention that you keep up todate with cyber updates, CVEs, Tools, do some bug bounty

[candid merlin]

name sake

✌️

[narrow yew]

nobody will ask about the certs

[arctic spruce]

Sooo GitHub is basically our portfolio!

[sand mason]

this is a trap. the homelab will take over your life
(it's actually good advice tho, seriously)

[narrow yew]

your first job will not be a pentester

[arctic spruce]

I feel like getting certs is for your own benefit right?

[candid merlin]

i’ve never understood what a homelab is am i dumb? i mean i only use my laptop with kali for my stuff nothing too fancy

[arctic spruce]

?

Isn’t it pretty much your own lab with VM?

[candid merlin]

nooo he gave me free study material on github

[sand mason]

i was joking that you'll end up spending all your free time doing homelab stuff

[sand mason]

can be. mine runs physical hardware tho

[arctic spruce]

Litterally feel like it haha since I used to game on desktop

[narrow yew]

so you can learn how to set up things, try set up your own enviorments, vm, AD server, run a local XDR, patch via central setup. etc

Things to talk about

[candid merlin]

this the type of trap i’d willingly fall into

[narrow yew]

look at SC-200 and AZ-500, those will land you blue team work, JR SOC, Soc Analyst, etc

no problem

[candid merlin]

i’m going red team

[narrow yew]

you will change

[candid merlin]

wdym

[arctic spruce]

Purp is the way to go

[narrow yew]

Blue is the way in

[candid merlin]

Red

[narrow yew]

then pivot to red with skills learnt while working

[candid merlin]

yes i’m the way in

[narrow yew]

I wish you luck then

[arctic spruce]

Isn’t it like blue then red then purple and then black or white? Haha

[narrow yew]

All white hats turn grey with time

its just a fact

[arctic spruce]

Can see that…it honesty depend on how you view it

[narrow yew]

I view it from the I-have-a-cyber-job part

and you dont 🙂

I am old, and all the elder here will tell you the same thing

[arctic spruce]

Any tips for interview haha

[arctic spruce]

If you know how to use technology then age is just a number

[sand mason]

yeah but tech is just a tool. its use is derived from the person wielding said tool

[arctic spruce]

You are right about that, it’s more of how people understand what the tools are use for and how you can teach other am I right?

[narrow yew]

@arctic spruce With the skills you learn, you use this to do bug bounty to practice your trainings and things learned with certs.

Just studying certs and not practicing what you learn. It will get you nowhere

[arctic spruce]

Next thing you know it we are pretty much like doctors for the AI haha

[narrow yew]

Well I tried

[arctic spruce]

That’s the plan trying to start doing ctf

[narrow yew]

what will that teach you

[sand mason]

that, and to math's point about white -> gray hat. that's all based on intent of the person using the tech. Plus you can use it for different functions (e.g. blue might use nmap to search for what devices are on a network to reconfig, red would use it for vuln hunting)

[candid merlin]

genuinely how are software dev jobs easier to land than cyber tho they’re so saturated

[arctic spruce]

It’s well for starters dev is like for creating something

While sec is more of monitoring

[narrow yew]

blue would look for vulns also to remidate them

I have thousands of servers I can pentest at work

but we manage them with XDR and monitor with SIEM

so I kind of dont have too 😄

[narrow yew]

If you want to be a pentester, look at bug bounty

then you have real targets

[sand mason]

they absolutely would. I was just trying to draw a starker contrast (i.e. points of access visable from, say, a subnet to compartmentalize a network, rather than purely hunting for CVEs)

[narrow yew]

and there is an endles amount of them

I validate everything myself we get reports on, our bb program, SIEM flags wit CVEs with exploits etc

[oblique harness]

too much free time ;-;

[narrow yew]

that is a few hours?

[arctic spruce]

How many hrs is that lol

[sand mason]

bro speedrunning thm

[oblique harness]

13 🙂 lmao

[arctic spruce]

Omg

[quaint ferry]

@gritty bane yo you still here

[distant robin]

He’s right, I went from red team to blue team and I’m old too

[sand mason]

has anybody here messed around with low level stuff much? I've been playing with some ESP32s lately and I can't really wrap my head around certain things

[narrow yew]

I have a bunch of esp32 but it's been a while

Finding: CORS Misconfiguration with Arbitrary Origin Reflection + Credentials
Severity: CRITICAL (CVSS 9.3)

Its fun to set up a nice LMM chain

[candid merlin]

why did you run from red team

[narrow yew]

we dont send random friend requests here

[arctic spruce]

Oh mb I was going to ask you to add on thm

[candid merlin]

i’d tell you to get a job but this could definitely get you a job

[narrow yew]

Oh I have added nobody from here

[candid merlin]

doesn’t hurt to have an extra buddy

[gritty bane]

Ye

[arctic spruce]

But it’s understandable

[narrow yew]

you can be friends with atoon and Val

[gritty bane]

nvm i got it but damn you were fast

[gritty bane]

It's an easy challenge

Maybe don't post it here

[quaint ferry]

lmao im fried

my bad

[gritty bane]

You run into these encoding often during practice so you know what to do

[quaint ferry]

didnt even think abt it

[gritty bane]

Next time you will solve the next crypto challenge 2x faster

[quaint ferry]

*is that pattern recognition or what i had to doublecheck step 2

with claude

[sand mason]

all the GPIO pins output 3.3v data transmission right? so if you're running longer stretches like 10-50ft, what would be the use cases for things like signal amplifiers, rs485's, and level shifters? or would you actually need to use all 3, depending on length of run, impedance, etc.?

trying to not wall-of-text data dump on you and keep it simple without getting too vague

[gritty bane]

It's all just memory

As is everything else in life

[quaint ferry]

my memory is goldfish

If I manage to spit fire from my mouth, would that make me a dragon?

[distant robin]

Because SOC analyst is in my blood

[languid aurora]

sorry for low pixels. it's from humble Bundle.

[rapid merlin]

can I use hydra to brute force my own network? and in my network attacks for PT1

[loud marlin]

if you own a devices yes

[sand mason]

wym by brute forcing your network? like for wifi?

[loud marlin]

but bruteforce wifi is not the way lol

[rapid merlin]

yes for ethical purposes to see if this shi will acc work

[rapid merlin]

ofc not

its for pt1

36% is network

i need specific frame workds

for web app (40%) network (36%)

im shit at priv esc for AD too

[sand mason]

technically speaking I'm sure it could work, tho practically it'd be a major PITA and a real bruteforce attack would take lifetimes when you factor in the WPA auth process time

[rapid merlin]

intresting esp when everyone uses wpa3

i seen people do it to wpa2 but noone uses wpa2 like that in 2k26

[sand mason]

WPA2 is still pretty common and attacking wpa3 is pretty much just a downgrade attack to wpa2 anyways. I was just referring to the wpa in general, not the first iteration of it

[rapid merlin]

how is wpa2 common

[rapid merlin]

https://tenor.com/view/dexter-gif-1878760417600646737

[half relic]

"wpa2 is used in most wpa2 deployments" what?

what do the other 1 percent of wpa2 deployments use

[sand mason]

i'm actually digging thru the sources to see where that came from lmao it's on an actual website

[sick grail]

https://tenor.com/view/speaki-speaky-trickcal-squish-press-gif-16011458567083559618

[sand mason]

...with roughly 99% of WPA2 deployments being the "Personal" version.

[half relic]

ah ok

[half relic]

that's why it's a good idea to click the links and check the source

one reason

[timid orbit]

Did they iron all the vulnerabilities out of WPA3 yet?

[sturdy sequoia]

nope

[timid orbit]

🤦‍♂️

+rep @sturdy sequoia

[twin ridge]

Gave +1 Rep to @sturdy sequoia (current: #57 - 193)

[sturdy sequoia]

its more secure but there are still some attacks that work against it

[timid orbit]

I know deauth was a big one that WPA3 was supposed to prevent

Buuuuuuuut

At least when it came out…

[loud marlin]

it does it

i try do shit loads of attack with pineapple. not rly make it. i got partial handshake, never full

[sturdy sequoia]

the problem is a lot of devices dont support wpa3 so the APs have to also have wpa2 support for those cases

[timid orbit]

Yeah cuz a majority of devices are older than WPA3 lol

[sturdy sequoia]

exactly. so downgrade attacks will still work

there are some other interesting attacks against wpa3 but i havent done enough testing yet

[timid orbit]

What do you personally use to test?

[loud marlin]

hammer

[sturdy sequoia]

lots of stuff. i try to avoid the automated tools, so i use things like aircrack, reaver/bully, hostapd, are probably the ones i use the most

[timid orbit]

Sweet. I haven’t gotten to wifi exploitation yet but it’s interesting

My buddy in high school had a WiFi Pineapple

He thought it was the coolest damn thing

[sturdy sequoia]

im actually in the process of writing up a full wifi hacking tutorial/workflow. to me pineapples are way too expensive. it can all be done with a cheap rpi and decent wifi antenna

[timid orbit]

Yeah most sell as little SBCs

[quartz drum]

Hi

[timid orbit]

I’m not a big SBC guy so I can’t spit the specific name out

[loud marlin]

for start

[timid orbit]

What is that? What are you doing?

[sturdy sequoia]

haha my lab is too messy to take a photo of and share here

[loud marlin]

proxmox server with proxmox backup. 2 wifi pineapple and router

[timid orbit]

Why 2 WiFi pineapples 😂

[loud marlin]

i mean last two released

not two same heh

[sturdy sequoia]

[quasi dome]

What those words even mean

[glacial cove]

The best part is I'm not ethnically english

[loud marlin]

then i rly do not understand

And i thought skibidy is the weirdest word ever being made

Anyone got any room recommendations for CMS / Word Press boxes

[loud marlin]

the pentagrams ?

[quasi dome]

Anyone got good project ideas

Good ones not building os or kernal from 0

Im not TTT anymore

[glacial cove]

Building microkernel from 0

[quasi dome]

TTT = terry the terrible

[quasi dome]

Bruhhhh

[glacial cove]

Terry made his monolithic but that's so last-year if you know what I mean

And then you do it in Rust

No i mean stuf like some project to apply concepts

Jokes aside, there's half a dozen potential projects out there ranging in complexity, and you usually stumble upon the correct ones that appeal to you when you find your niche in Cyber or a temporary core interest

[loud marlin]

one for windows shit that i need. one is personal, one that i hate for kali

[quasi dome]

Real hackers dont use technology and just growing up some animals and have a lovely farm otherwise its all scam and false information to make hackers look cool

[glacial cove]

Like, start off with finding some area you think is cool, do some research, find thing to do tied to it, build it and horse around with it

[quasi dome]

I have one in mind but im just trying to yk seeing all the dimensions of it to be applied and then twll my instructor about it

A zero trust simulation with autonomous honey pot with mitre att&ck mapping

[loud marlin]

make website in assembly

[quasi dome]

Is that a thing?

I can make simple python code never did anything related to assembly

[loud marlin]

try lol

[quasi dome]

Cpp too and java basic but i hate java because of the output function

[glacial cove]

I like SDR

I research SDR and radio protocols

I think cellular protocols are pretty cool, let me build a lab to poke with 3G or smth

Lab built, fun had, I understand protocol better now and an old phone with a defunct SIM is talking over my radio in a faraday cage. Wooh

(I haven't done this yet but intend to after figuring out the legalities and obtaining a radio license and equipment.)

Yep that works, don't know if zero-trust fits in that description though

if you're going to honeypot though, some considerations need to be had. I'm actually considering the same project on a larger scale 😅

Two biggest bits:

• Legalities
• Personal safety

Vet all of your projects through those before you do 'em

[quasi dome]

Its simple one

[sturdy sequoia]

its really good to hear about peoples projects. love the enthusiasm

[quasi dome]

Im still studying how to implement that it kinda hard even for basics adaption only

[glacial cove]

For a honeypot, probably the biggest concern is your exposure and the effectiveness of your isolation.

• Can the malware escape your sandbox?
• Will you be exposing it to the public internet? How can you do so safely? (don't use your ISP!)
• If something goes wrong, do you have a contingency plan?
• Do you have a contact with experience who can give guidance on all the above?

Etc

[quasi dome]

I dont think i have worry about isp while useing vms only

Using *

And yeah i have instrctor that i talk with

[glacial cove]

Nicest way to start out is doing it on malware that's entirely isolated from the network, on a throwaway device. If it can't ping home and it can't physically reach your other devices, you're safe regardless of what you do as long as everything on that device stays on said device

[quasi dome]

Yeah sure and the it gonna be isolated noone want to ruin his day by himself

[glacial cove]

Hypervisors use virtual network devices and NAT to bridge your device's internet connection to VMs by default. They keep your host OS safe (to a reasonable extent) but you still gotta watch out for how they're configured

[quasi dome]

Sure i will note that

[glacial cove]

Problem with isolated payloads is that they're usually multi-staged and ping back to a C2 to unravel properly. If you can extract artifacts from online sandboxes safely however and transfer them onto your honeypot, it's all fair-game

Plenty of advanced malware self destructs or goes inert without phoning home however, so it might not be the most interesting. But infostealers and simple RATs will demonstrate to you various creative obfuscation/persistence techniques and other behaviours which you can document and learn about

Guys is the vpn server down?

Yes yes

THM VPN service

[karmic sierra]

Good evening everyone, my name is Max and I need help with a frustrating situation that happened to me. I'm currently unemployed and my mother was scammed; they took all the little money we had in the bank. I'd like to know if anyone knows or can track down scammers?

[spice yacht]

For me its also running but I'm unable to connect to target machine

[sturdy sequoia]

contact the police

[karmic sierra]

They did nothing but file a police report; I feel wronged.

[spice yacht]

I tried regenerating but no luck.

[karmic sierra]

But anyway, thank you very much for your attention.

[spice yacht]

Openvpn

It was working perfectly a few hours ago.

[quartz drum]

this dumbahh bot

[spice yacht]

Alright I will try this. One weird thing is that the access page in THM is showing me that I am connected but I am somehow unable to ping anything in their network

FIXED

[quartz drum]

i am trying to complete this osint task and they are asking to find electricians and stuff but i cant find since they are behind license registration page and no public registry exists

[spice yacht]

The issue was that I didn't close openvpn properly upon my last visit had to pkill it

[languid aurora]

woah, how did we get from Barbie to Racism

[sturdy sequoia]

just another day in general chat

[quartz drum]

is it racism to talk about how one specific community of people comes to your land builds stuff and bars you from entering it

[languid aurora]

I mean you mentioned racism

[glacial cove]

Speaking of OSINT, these are some funny whimsical opinions you hopefully aren't tying to a main alias/account

[dark wolf]

Yes. That is not a community doing it, that's an asshole with money doing it and people buying into it without realizing what happened

[quartz drum]
