@spiral notch Hi am willing to learn

Hi

#

Anybody knows how to use open bullet?

mild quartz
#

hi, i just recently finished my internship at a cybersecurity firm which focuses on web security. after the internship, i don't think i want to work in web security, at least not as much as i want to work in something like malware analysis.

i was a research assistant for one of my profs, who specializes in malware analysis, reverse engineering, and iot security. and i love doing stuff related to reverse engineering and iot.

so i guess my question is would it be possible for a new grad to get a job doing reverse engineering and iot and malware related stuff without much experience in cybersecurity, or do i have to gain experience in other related areas like programming first?

another question that i have is should i go for a master's or a phd in the previously mentioned fields or is gaining experience more valuable?

chilly merlin
#

If you would like to get a job role as somebody who does solely reverse engineering, then probably not. However, if you are doing reverse engineering ( which is a large and crucial part of malware analysis ) you will need to understand and interpret the decompiled code...

#

Else how are you going to relay information on how a piece of malware works.

mild quartz
#

yeah that's what i wanna do, something that utilizes reverse engineering like malware analysis or iot security research and stuff, would it be possible to get job doing something like that right out of graduation?

chilly merlin
#

I said probably not within the context of someone who can read code, not write it or is going to be writing any.

chilly merlin
#

It depends what degrees or certifications you have.

mild quartz
#

i'd be graduating with a bs in IT

#

and i took all the cybersecurity classes too

chilly merlin
#

If you have a bachelors degree in CS and have studied or taken a course in cybersecurity at your place of education, then yes. You'll likely in for a higher chance of getting that job role.

mild quartz
#

along with many low level classes like OS, assembly, etc.

chilly merlin
#

Ok, but a large part of a malware analysts is reverse engineering. A large part of reverse engineering is knowing how to use disassemblers/debuggers like ghidra, ida, x64/32dbg, ollydbg, etc.

#

Do you know how to use disassemblers and debuggers.

#

I guess 'and/or' can be inferred there. But then you'll likely have to learn or work with someone else to do debugging and disassembling separately.

mild quartz
#

yes, i had to learn to use ghidra, x64dbg, gdb, and how to write yara rules back when i was working as a research assistant

#

i learned a bit of ida but i'm not really as proficient with it as i am with ghidra

Using ngrok means that you make your server publicly available.

ik

just curious on how this works

Than just create a webserver.

There is no need to expose your C2 server.

Hi all, i am a third year student currently studying cybercrime & IT security, sadly i have failed to find an internship for work placement for my second semester. i just honestly need some advice and guidance. i am looking to get some certificates and i am looking at the comptia security +. i am also to undergo a project as i couldn't get work placement, it is more like a mini one. not securing an internship this january has really affected me honestly, especially after all the interviews. i would greatly appreciate it if i could get some advice on certfificationns to pursue and what mini projects i could undergo.

Self-hosting a DNS server takes more technical know-how, but it gives you full control over things like your logs, blocking malware, and other customizations. On the flip side tho, NextDNS is cloud-based, so it’s super easy to use, but since it’s a third-party service, it might not offer complete anonymity.

Hello, I wanted to ask what types of projects I can work on as a penetration tester to post on LinkedIn, showcasing them as projects to attract companies and employers. I am struggling to find a job, even though I know I am a beginner.

I have posted a few things, such as bypassing the Windows 11 antivirus with malware (i learn it from a course). I’ve also written a ransomware, specifying that it was for educational purposes.

What other projects do you think might catch the attention of employers or companies for potential job opportunities?

I just suspect there's a better chance in that sphere, for some reason

just auditing a ledger, which seems a crypto bro task to me

Hi everyone !

Completely new to all of this but recently something scary happened, and I’m now trying to dive into the world of cybersecurity to try and stay safe šŸ˜µā€šŸ’«

If I were a hacker, I would probably be in the grey hat šŸŽ©

Nice to meet you all!

Greyhat is awesome

#

Guys any idea on how to hack a Facebook account?

vital robin
toxic lantern
toxic lantern
vital robin
#

First I put all my devices in the microwave because it was the only Faraday Cage I had access too.

#

Nah, you'll understand, don't worry.

#

I picked up a YOLO phone, think burner phone

#

I disconnected my home network

#

no modem no router no WiFi

#

I only used mobile data on the new phone and no other devices until I replaced EVERYTHING

#

New ISP, New gateway, hardware firewall, new router, new phones, new laptop

#

also got a faraday cage bag that fits in a case, it prevents anything inside from connecting to anything

#

can't post pics in here, but it's a big a pelican case

#

obviously I spent thousands on all this

#

if that's not an option for you

toxic lantern
vital robin
#

you know the metal grid in your microwave window?

#

that's part of a faraday cage

#

it may sound like a meme, but a decent microwave, especially a large 1500W one, has a cage that is good enough to keep any device inside of it offline and unable to connect to anything outside

#

My favorite brand is SLNT, but there are many. These days they make metallized fabric that does the same thing. You can get phone pouches, bags, backpacks, etc. It's nice insurance, but not 100% necessary

#

It's the type of thing that keeps someone from scanning your debit or credit card from inside your wallet or purse by getting close to you

toxic lantern
#

I’ll take a look!!! Thanks for the advice šŸ«¶šŸ» not necessarily needed but it’s better to be safe than deal with the consequences of thinking this guy isn’t insane enough to hurt me

vital robin
#

One last thing, I forgot

#

You're familiar with 2FA?

#

I started using Yubikeys to help secure all of my accounts. They are about $60 each, get two and keep them loaded identically. The second is a backup in case you lose the first.

toxic lantern
#

I am not familiar with it, no

#

I know nothing about this world 😭

vital robin
#

They can function as a second authentication factor, or as a passkey which is basically a way to sign in with no username or password at all.

#

They can also store timed one time passwords (TOTP), the 6 digit codes you get for verifying your logins sometimes also

#

It works with its own authenticator app

toxic lantern
#

Oh 2FA is two factor authentication! My brain didn’t load lol

#

I’ll definitely invest in it!

vital robin
#

It's the industry standard

toxic lantern
#

Not that I have much to steal, but idk what damage can be done if they get ahold of my socials lol

vital robin
#

Well, you can use it for Discord,Google,Amazon

#

pretty much everything to one extent or another

#

If you get them, do not get the FIPS version

#

Also avoid the fingerprint type

#

Stick to the Yubikey 5 Series

#

The Nano is too small, don't bother, you can't get it out of your phone again if you use a case

#

Stick to the large or mid size. The largest ones are capable of NFC, so you can tap instead of insert it. That's a personal choice, I avoid it, but it is convenient

#

I'm not a cyber security expert by any means, but I can assure you that this is sound advice.

#

You'll get different opinions on password managers and VPNs

#

I use Proton Mail, VPN, and Pass

#

you should probably switch to these also

#

don't use free stuff

#

the price for all 3 is decent

toxic lantern
#

I appreciate all the advice!! I’ve been very worried as of late, so this advice is helping my nerves 😭

#

I use nordVPN but that was only to watch different Netflix shows šŸ˜µā€šŸ’«

vital robin
#

I'm a firearms dealer too if you want that kind of advice

toxic lantern
#

Unfortunately I’m not in the US! Otherwise I’d have been much safer lol

vital robin
#

Ahh

#

Well, my cousin dealt with a guy like this

#

he was cop

#

former cop now

#

So I understand

toxic lantern
#

I was thinking of pressing charges, but I’m not in my home country and i worry it would escalate the situation

vital robin
#

I understand the fear

#

however, if you don't, you may later regret it

#

it also may allow this person to do it to someone else

#

You could speak to the police at least and see what your options are

toxic lantern
#

He has my address and work details, he’s threatened to send intimate images shall I say for a better word lol to my company and family too

vital robin
#

Yeah

vital robin
#

That's a common threat, I'm sorry you're dealing with that

toxic lantern
#

Which im sure is illegal but he would do it anonymously I guess

vital robin
#

Well

spiral notch
#

Interesting

#

I mean, get good at opsec

#

Easiest counter

toxic lantern
#

He already came to my apartment and attacked me lol so rn I just want to keep my cyber life safe lol

#

Opsec ?

spiral notch
#

Operational security

vital robin
#

operational security

spiral notch
#

Keeping shit safe

#

Before you get it breached

vital robin
#

you need to change all your passwords too

spiral notch
#

Basically your data, don't become public

#

Change emails and other things perhaps

vital robin
#

long, random

spiral notch
#

Make a new

vital robin
#

yeah we went over that

spiral notch
#

Social media acc

vital robin
#

that too

spiral notch
#

Or perhaps don't post on it at all

#

Oh oop

vital robin
#

it's all good, I may have forgotten things

toxic lantern
#

Do you have any recommendations for where to learn such things?

vital robin
#

I recommended yubikeys and proton pass, VPN, mail

#

youtube

#

honestly

#

there's a plethora of info, but not everyone will agree one specifics

spiral notch
vital robin
#

the basic parts will though

#

lol

spiral notch
#

Some basic opsec should be good enough

vital robin
#

it's how i got into all this

#

I think Yubikeys and switching mail provider, using a VPN, and password manager are all good starts

spiral notch
#

Vpn is forsure but like

vital robin
#

obviously changing passwords to everything using long, random, etc passwords is important

spiral notch
#

It's not like her ex will track her ip

toxic lantern
vital robin
#

he's in cyber security

spiral notch
#

Or start a mitm attack on her router

#

Or wait

toxic lantern
spiral notch
#

Technically...

#

Does he know your address?

vital robin
#

that's why I went pretty deep

#

yeah

spiral notch
#

Shiiit

vital robin
#

her ex

spiral notch
#

Cooked

vital robin
#

I told her all I did

toxic lantern
#

My work address too lol

spiral notch
#

I don't think I can even find a way

toxic lantern
#

I’m a bit worried in all honesty but for now the basics is a good start !

spiral notch
#

How she can protect her router if something

#

Oh she could use von ig but

#

Vpn*

#

Yea fair enough

vital robin
#

J, if you need help with anything that Im able to provide, feel free to ask

#

I replaced my routers

toxic lantern
#

I’m too broke to move apartments, and I can’t find a new job atm

vital robin
#

and gateway

spiral notch
#

Me too! U can dm me anytime

vital robin
#

got a new isp

toxic lantern
#

Thank you 😭

spiral notch
vital robin
#

Yeah, as a victim of this kind of thing, I would never want to see it happen to someone else

spiral notch
#

It's a browser that routes your connection across many servers

vital robin
#

bounced all around

toxic lantern
#

Oh I have heard of that! Something to do with onions

vital robin
#

yep

#

layers

#

of security

spiral notch
vital robin
#

nothing is 100% so you want to obfuscate and slow an attacker

toxic lantern
vital robin
#

well, I'm a firearms dealer, lol

spiral notch
vital robin
#

so I don't worry too much about that part

#

yeah

#

see i got ratd

spiral notch
#

Which if he does, she should use live os

edgy wren
#

Sup fellers

vital robin
#

I'd use Qubes

#

personally

toxic lantern
#

He came to my apartment not long ago, and stole my SD card to check for data it only had photos on it but who tf steals SD cards 😭😭

vital robin
#

but that's far down the line of things she needs to do inthink

spiral notch
#

That's like the biggest ks in the wlrld

#

Os*

toxic lantern
#

I am writing all these things down !

spiral notch
#

Do you have a laptop?

vital robin
#

she's getting hit with a ton of info

toxic lantern
spiral notch
toxic lantern
vital robin
#

it's a lot for anyone to absorb at once

toxic lantern
vital robin
#

don't be so self-deprecating šŸ˜†

spiral notch
#

There's this thing, your computer runs on an os

#

From an ssd

#

(Storage inside the laptop)

toxic lantern
spiral notch
#

Thing is, if someone takes your laptop, they can installa virus on there, get remote access etc

vital robin
#

it has no persistence, meaning nothing is saved to storage, which is handy for preventing an attacker from doing nuch

spiral notch
#

So there's this really safe method

#

Called a live os

#

Where you install it and do a couple things on a memory stick

#

That way - when you plug the stick in, the computer will run off the os on the stick

#

As soon as you unplug it automatically shuts down and no info is saved

toxic lantern
#

Oh wow ! okay that sounds like a good thing to invest in

spiral notch
#

And you can just keep the memory stick with you in your pocket and carry it always

spiral notch
vital robin
#

no need to invest really

spiral notch
#

5 dollars

toxic lantern
#

Oh ???

spiral notch
#

Max

vital robin
#

except for the USB stick

toxic lantern
#

What !!

#

Wow

vital robin
#

yeah

spiral notch
#

Usb drive, ever heard of those?

vital robin
#

a lot of this stuff is free or cheap

spiral notch
#

Its where you can put files onto

#

So that you can share them between devices

#

Like an SD card

toxic lantern
#

I do not own one but I will get one !

#

So I put the live os onto the memory stick and everything is ok ??

spiral notch
#

Yeah feel free to dm me so I can teach you to set it up

vital robin
#

It doesn't need to be that large. 64GB should be more than enough I think.

toxic lantern
#

Thank you!! I will!

toxic lantern
#

I assume we have be try different time zones though

spiral notch
#

If u run arch like 4gigs is enkugh

toxic lantern
#

Its currently 8:30am here

spiral notch
vital robin
#

Yeah, I err on the side of usefulness

spiral notch
#

My non existent sleeping schedule

vital robin
#

Plus those are not much cheaper these days

#

in my experience

toxic lantern
#

(But sleep is important)

spiral notch
#

šŸ˜‚

#

So yea probably prioritize investing in a memory stick asap

vital robin
#

Can you get pepper spray J?

spiral notch
#

That way you can carry all your data and anything you do on your laptop with you

vital robin
#

legally?

toxic lantern
#

No it’s illegal here 😦

#

I’m in Japan, any form of self defense is relatively illegal lol

vital robin
#

I can tell you that tazers and stun guns are trash and not consistent in efficacy

toxic lantern
#

I was thinking like, sharp hair pins

#

That might be the only option lol

vital robin
#

up to you,but if you can get pepper spray,I would risk it

small linden

but that's my final contribution I think, kvts knows the technical things better than I do

I don't know what kvts thinks in that topic, but for use with your phone at least, I think they are a good idea for you

#

your phone will be your biggest concern I think

He did try to take my phone šŸ˜µā€šŸ’«

#

It doesn't do automatic protection however the scanning feature is super strong

vital robin

I don't have a recommendation on endpoint protection

small linden
#

I have a question, my father got his ID copied and someone created a bank account and a telephone number with it and used them to scam people through bizum, my father is a computer scientist and knows how important it is to be careful with the information you give on the Internet, so the ID information has not been stolen there, but rather it must have been physically when giving a copy to sell the car or when he stayed in a hotel and someone must have stolen their data. Most probably that information is now in some leaked internet database. Is there any way to ensure that this is not the case?

vital robin
#

Does he have a service like LifeLock?

#

if not I'd be on top of that ASAP

small linden
vital robin

There's nothing you can do to prevent that from spreading

Now it's all about preventing more damage

And being vigilant. Checking the credit bureaus

changing passwords

# vapid hawk Hello, I wanted to ask what types of projects I can work on as a penetration tes...

Great to see that you're working an more sophisticated topics, especially seeing that you're a beginner.

It seems as though you've tailored your skillset towards more low-level hacking, this is fantastic. As you might know, pentesting/red-teaming has sub-disciplines within it, each pentester typically specialises in a few of these areas, such as;

  • Web-app
  • API
  • Cloud
  • Mobile
  • Internal/External
  • Network | AD
  • Thick-client

You should aim to align your skillset to what specifically interests you, seeing that you've developed bypasses for WinAV and been writing ransomware, you should look at more thick-client/reverse-engineering work if you want to catch companies eyes, it's a difficult skill-set to attain.

Regarding works that might catch the eyes of employers, things like setting up testing infrastructure is immensely valuable.

  • Develop your own Proxy or VPN solution, set-up a dedicated wireguard server.
  • Develop your own C2 infrastructure, develop a crude way to maintain persistence.
  • Develop your own Out Of Band testing solution, something to handle arbitrary XSS call-backs.
  • Develop your own multi-tool solution, take a domain/IP input, have it scrap crt.sh, shodan, etc, and return results.

But there are other things we would also be looking for.

Do you have any public works on github? Have you been regularly contributing?
Do you have any place where you regularly showcase what you're working on?

You'll have to explain to me what it is you're trying to do/learn. I can't promise you that I'll be able to answer all of your questions, but I will try.

My mom died of lung and brain cancer in 2021, my dad died last May after many years of dementia and other health problems. I took care of him for a long time. Was very unpleasant. I had a break in last June and almost ventilated three people. Had a car accident too. Girl I've loved for three years dipped. I got hacked. And now I'm here

That's why I do it. I've been in here less than 24 hours, lol. I just seem to end up helping people get started, which is kind of humorous since I'm a novice too. My area of expertise is firearms and a bit of physical security.

I wasn't gonna say all that, but sometimes it's helpful for people to know they aren't the only one neck deep in it.

lol hey no shame here bro

#

facts i agree

vital robin
#

Nah, I don't have shame anyway KEKW

#

If you want some books too, I have them in .pdf, .mobi, and .epub. They are all No Starch Press books I snagged from a recent HunbleBundle sale. There are 18, but I think only 4 might be suited to your current goals.

Hello does anyone have any good wordlist?

I believe there is a web tool for checking and making .PDFs safe but I can't recall what it is. I also don't know if I should drop them here.
