Hey guys I am looking for relationships in Cybersecurity any recommendations where I can apply as I am unable to find company where I would get exposure

[digital pendant]

Hey Everyone , I recently purchased coursera’s annual membership and im trying to break into tech i was looking to get my foot in the door with Googles IT Support Specialist cert, and work my way into cyber security from there should i still take the Comptia A+ or should o focus on Network + since the Google cert is an equvailent

[marble bay]

I’m gonna be straight forward. Hi everyone my name is rondo, pretty much have an ok life story and I need help and getting into a certain part of the web 👀

[wet gate]

what "certain part" are you referring to

[weary iris]

Elaborate?

[marble bay]

DW

[marble bay]

DW

[wet gate]

dark web

i assume

just download tor from https://torproject.org

then browse to dark[dot]fail or tor[dot]taxi for hidden service links

its nothing special

[marble bay]

I thank you. But me and you both know it’s more to it then just tor right? Between me and you, if I can find the right way to do it discreetly, I’ll pay you and also help people struggling.

That’s why i said robinhood

[wet gate]

no

it isnt

its nothing special

[marble bay]

Oh wow really?

[whole patio]

really

[wet gate]

if you want more opsec while on tor, i gave you a chain you can run

use mullvad vpn, setup vm with qubesos, connect to vps/rdp, then proxy, done, then connect to tor

or just use tor directly on a separate VM, you dont need anything special

[weary iris]

There's nothing special @marble bay mostly dw you'll just download a malware and mess up your life 👌🙂‍↕️

No chance ...its not accepting it. I wrote CS ....maybe its a bug !

[rain knot]

You don’t have to even stop at one! Grab a couple!

[barren mauve]

hey everyone

[tender dock]

By your answers it looks like its a small issue that can be solved

[whole patio]

You asked this here right after I told you in another channel not to crosspost.

How about you enter instagram into the search engine and see for yourself how often the question comes up, and what is the same answer every time - also the one you already got

[lusty coral]

I am new here

what did i missed

[golden bloom]

Is it allowed in this server that someone helps for learning something to someone else against money ?
Not illegal things just like for example programming languages or other things in general ? I ask this because I want to have the best results for my college and sometimes I don't understand everything and it takes a lot of time to learn it from the web so idk if there are here people willing to learn things to others like a private course against a good remunaration ? Not for now but maybe for a time I would need it

[wet gate]

people won’t mentor you

but you can ask for resources

and ask questions and people will answer them for you

okay so heres the cryptography problem :

Encrypted Message:

Tool to Use: cryptii
HINT: Why did Person A specify the nature of the reflector?

And there's a conversation attached that provides the rings ect to use. but it leaves the positions and reflector unknown

the hint refers to that conversation, its a little long to send in the chat, but I have it as a pdf if anyone would like

[midnight osprey]

Im pretty curious, and also learning some cryptography, you can send it over @wary prairie

[wary prairie]

sent!

[oak robin]

Is it done

[wary prairie]

it isnt

[wary prairie]

were still stuck, its way too hard imo

Hi could anyone suggest how to master networking? I need to do the theory parts very well along with understanding stuff. It's one of the stuff I would be graded on in my upcoming exams. If ur kind enough it would be very helpful to get some resources and website links!

[bronze marten]

[golden bloom]

Do you know where I can find people to mentor me ?
I don't need it now but maybe in the future if I know college becomes too hard.

[whole patio]

No one will mentor you

There are sites that provide curated course material, thats about as far as you get

You could try what others have tried, and start your own learning community.. just be prepared that it will be flooded by people who are looking to get help, not provide it

[plucky basalt]

guys i have a phone number and i wanna know who's phone number is this , how to reverse phone number lookup ?

[wet gate]

you'd need to do OSINT on the number

or have access to intelligence databases like intelx, intelfetch, predictasearch

these usually cost money

[plucky basalt]

but i dont have linux or kali or all of that tools

[wet gate]

u dont need linux or kali or "all of that tools" to perform OSINT

you literally just need an internet connection

[plucky basalt]

so is there is no other way ? on the phone or smth , cuz idk anyrthingg about the OSINT

[plucky basalt]

oh then can u tell me where can i learn to do it ?

[wet gate]

send me the number in dm ill have a look, because no there is no other way

[wet gate]

For general chat, we have #💬・old-gen-chat , if you have questions then you can ask them here

[green ore]

yo the other day someone suggested to start with tryhackme cybersecurity 101 for learning but i am kinda stuck in that premium room shi so should i skip those rooms like would it effect learning or is there someway to access it for free

[wet gate]

u cant access them for free

i wouldnt say they effect learning

tryhackme like 28+ pages over 300+ rooms that are free that you can learn a bunch of stuff from

[green ore]

so i cant get certificate without paying them thats kinda sad

[wet gate]

thats usually how certs go

though there are a bunch of free certs you can go for

https://training.dfirdiva.com/training-listings?search_keywords=&search_region=91&search_categories[]=

[green ore]

so nice of you thank you so much ❤️

[whole patio]

But the usual addendum applies - free certs are worthless, when it comes to jobs

Great, if you have connections and someone who wants to hire you. Getting to the job interview stage with random applications.. no joy.. either the industry standard certifications, or you get sorted out

[green ore]

thanks man i didn't think of that icould you suggest some valuable learning wise i mean my prime focus isn't job by any sort i am just curious for cs and want to earn money by any ways ctfs or anything could you suggest someway to learn better for practical usage or something

i was meaning like an online tool😭

[wet gate]

notepad.exe

which is installed by default on your computer

or https://onlinenotepad.org/notepad if you must use a website

for some weird reason

[patent shale]

nah you lowkey right

that mightve been a stupid question lol

[hard blade]

Quick probably dumb question. I have the opportunity to buy a few Chromebooks for cheap cheap. How hard is it to wipe the os and put something better on it? Ubuntu, fedora, whatever. I've never had a Chromebook but I've heard the os is ass

[steady palm]

Iam here whats wrong?

[hard blade]

Oh bro nothing is wrong lol just curious as to your opinion to this. My bad man

wow im just asking bc this is like 4 time goin on the website looking for games informtion nd i just saw really dar stuff in there thankn you

dark

[wet gate]

just search google lol

4chan has nothing to do with game information it’s just full of creeps and weirdos

[thin palm]

i can tell is full off wierd stuff i just thought that website was like reddit to find info but i guess not

[wet gate]

nah

reddit is reddit

4chan is a cesspit

[fleet granite]

so guys i downloaded a certificate in my laptop and i thave transferred to my pendrive but when i tried to open later i found that it is corrupted to the point that it is unopenable

so how can i get into hold of that pdf

redownload it

[fleet granite]

i can't

[silk breach]

hello

I am stuc in this ctf https://play.picoctf.org/practice/challenge/520?category=1&page=1
is this beginner friendly ?

[opaque pelican]

Any way to check for sure if a number is a scam?

Free rather than paid

[slow edge]

Yes it is a beginner friendly web exploitation challenge with cryptography!

[slow edge]

Truecaller and Trend Micro check are good sites that I have heard of

[silk breach]

I just spend 2 hours on my first reverse engineering ctf

you think ctfs are good way to learn cyber ? or I should do courses ?

[slow edge]

If you are a beginner who has his fundamentals of programming, networking, and OS not cleared then CTFs will be a torture on you because you do not understand the fundamentals of the things

Doing a web exploitation challenge without having a strong fundamental of how web works is not efficient, you will hit here and there.... Better option is learn fundamentals from places like THM and HTB academy, clear your theory by reading books and article then gradually move to CTFs

CTF are really good, but for them who know what they are doing. They are not for learning, but a practice ground.
It is like for those who know stuff but want to sharpen their skills

[silk breach]

I used to do webscraping ,I studied networking and programming
I know some stuff about the web but I wouldn't call it strong fundamentals
thank you that's insightful maybe I should start with HTB and I will learn more from the CTF I do that way.

what course you recommend I start ?

[slow edge]

Linux fundamentals is good one
They also have networking fundamentals! I recommend start from any of that

[barren agate]

i try learning python but then i forget alot

any way to help?

[silk breach]

use less llms when coding

[barren agate]

llms?

[silk breach]

AIs like copilot and chatgpt

write the functions yourself and avoid copying code

[barren agate]

so i dont use any ai but thyen how would i learn stuff

[silk breach]

the learning happens when you think and try

copying code won't get you anywhere when it comes to learning

if you want to learn what a function do just try using it

you can start with easy problem solving problems

that's how I learn new languages

[barren agate]

should i start with tryhackme or learning languanges

[agile marten]

There’s a website called roadmap.sh (idk if links are allowed but you can google it if you want) and it gives you a pretty decent framework on what you should learn before moving on to other things.

Some might be better to start on THM, others might be good for programming languages. You don’t need to know ALL of it, but you should at least be familiar with most of it

[barren agate]

what would be better in ur opinion

[agile marten]

Wym? Between THM and learning programming languages?

[barren agate]

yea

for the first step

[agile marten]

I mean, what do you wanna actually do? Like what discipline do you want to get into? IR, SOC analyst, Red Team, etc?

[barren agate]

red team

[deft violet]

Red team is not typically an entry level field. Probably worth mentioning

[barren agate]

for entry then waht?

[agile marten]

Yea that’s a further down the line thing. BUT I mean you could get started on THM if you wanna learn fundamentals. Idk where you’re at with your knowledge or skill, but the first step into any discipline is to get IT fundamentals down

Entry is gonna be good ol help desk my man 😂 you could maybe get an entry level SOC analyst / junior admin position if you know some people and are good enough to do the job

But tbh, I think help desk is a great place to start. Even better if you can work for an MSP

[silk breach]

there are no entry cyber security roles ?

[agile marten]

Coming from someone currently at an MSP

There are, but the big cyber ship has sailed since COVID

[silk breach]

what do you mean ?

[deft violet]

Market is flooded

[agile marten]

Man 2020 was a year 💀 Sec+ was all you needed to land a very cushy job for entry cybersecurity

[barren agate]

tbh ik nothing about anything maybe abit of cybersec but other then that nothing

[deft violet]

Bug bounty can be an entry if youre good at it

[agile marten]

You got a degree? Or plan on going to college?

It’s okay if the answer is no

I don’t have a degree

[silk breach]

I am currently unsure I will graduate in one year as an industrial computer science engineer
I dont know if I go cyber or AI or IOT ...
all I hear is market is flooded both in AI and cyber...
but I think I have a better chance with cyber
or maybe I can specialize in industrial cyber sec

[agile marten]

I would go into what you’re more passionate about. Burnout is real and if you don’t like your job, you won’t wanna stay

Even if the pay is good

[silk breach]

I am passionate about cyber sec

[wet gate]

becoming a specialist in industrial cybersec is a very specific role and would require experience in the area

[agile marten]

Good. Find a discipline that works for you and start at the bottom in terms of your learning. Get really good at fundamentals bc that’s what you’ll resort to when all else fails

[barren agate]

nah i dropped out

[agile marten]

Ik that’s pretty generic advice but it’s something I wish I paid more attention to earlier on

[silk breach]

you thinq one year is enough for me to learn and get a internship in cyber ? I have decent knowledge in IT: programming/network/IOT

[wet gate]

yeah prob

[agile marten]

It’s hard to switch gears to a different industry later on in life, I went 4 years into my degree doing mechanical and nuclear engineering (god material science still gives me nightmares) and I dropped out and went into IT. Gave up 100k easy for literally half that in help desk

But I have a much higher pay ceiling now. Thank God I made this decision prior to having a family otherwise I would’ve chosen to be miserable

[silk breach]

yeah that 's good advice. is try hack me cyber sec 101 enough ? what else I should do ?

[agile marten]

Yeah you could, especially with your degree path. The biggest thing I can recommend to ANYONE is to network. Meet people in the industry and be their friend. You never know who could be your next “in” somewhere

I got my current job with no exp and no degree bc I worked as a concierge at a condo. One of the residents of my building is my current company’s president 💀 he liked me a lot and gave me his card. Saw a job opening and he threw me a bone and here I am

[agile marten]

Know your cloud environments (most likely Azure, but AWS is pretty big in large enterprise environments), know some networking, know how to use common tools, etc

[barren agate]

ok so i know nothing of any coding or and ik barely anytrhing of cybersec im just wondering where to start to learn more

[silk breach]

start with tryhackme

#👥・new-member-guide

[chilly merlin]

Professor messer for net+ and security+
Know how to use a siem
***Talk to ppl ***
And you'll get the job

[barren agate]

coding after?

[chilly merlin]

Coding is optional

[barren agate]

wouldnt i be very limited to what i do if i dont know code

[agile marten]

Programming is overrated in cybersecurity spaces. Know how to script repeat tasks and how to read code

[chilly merlin]

In a way but it's not end all be all

[silk breach]

thank you that's very valuable advice @agile marten

[barren agate]

do i need to know how to make scripts?

or just read

[chilly merlin]

That' shouldn't be ur priority

[agile marten]

You should know how to make bash and PS scripts yes. But ^^^^ @chilly merlin said it best

[silk breach]

you need to learn how to code to do that xD

[barren agate]

do i start with bash and PS then THM?

[agile marten]

No, lol don’t worry about that rn

You’re way too early on to need to care about that stuff

[barren agate]

so i do the fundementals of THM?

[silk breach]

start with THM learn programming along the way
just do some problem solving in parallel

[agile marten]

It’ll help down the line but you should get basic IT fundamentals down at this point in your career

[wet gate]

https://tryhackme.com/hacktivities

go through this path

pick one

[chilly merlin]

If u want to learn blue team stuff

Letsdefend
Btlo
Security blue team

These will help

[agile marten]

You need to know how to borrow code to do that 💀 jokes of course, but unless your in IR or forensics, you’re not gonna need that type of knowledge early on

[barren agate]

can i start with red team

[chilly merlin]

Start with networking

[oak robin]

@chilly merlin ❤️

[agile marten]

Lord please do. Subnetting killed half of our help desk staff when we had a company wide project

[jade raven]

Is termux good starting point?

[barren agate]

Security Analyst

Penetration Tester

Security Engineer

out of these 3 whats the best

[chilly merlin]

Those are three completely different fields

It's like what's better chemical engineering or building a car

[silk breach]

building a car

[barren agate]

ik but which should i do

[agile marten]

Whatever you wanna do. Look into those disciplines before making a decision

All of them can make good money, but again, pay should not be your #1 priority long term. It’s very important, but so is liking the work that you’re doing

[barren agate]

so all coding i learn after right

[agile marten]

For work, yes. If you like programming I won’t tell you not to program tho. Have your passions and chase them. But as far as a job is concerned, don’t put too much emphasis on it

[slow edge]

Starting with red team or blue team is a very weird question for me personally
I say start with both, who is stopping you? If you are a beginner and do not know where to go then just start with both

I mean how to exploit a file upload vulnerability and how it can be mitigate is not something too much to cover (just an example)

But before stepping into anything
Make sure to clear your fundamentals in networking, programming and OS stuff

[coral dock]

if i had 1tb of storage n i have 500gb of storage left, will that impact my fps at all

[wary crystal]

shouldnt, no. if you are running the game from anything besides an SSD or specifically NVME though you may have fps drops due to load speeds.

[coral dock]

what about 300-400

[frail burrow]

Is the CEH master worth it ?

I am getting this package for 530 usd
It includes :

1-Year Access to CEH v13 E-Courseware
6-Month Access to EC-Council's Official Online Lab Environment (iLabs)
EC-Council’s Certification Exam Voucher (valid for 1 year)
1-Year Access to Instructor-Led Training Modules with streaming videos, offering the flexibility of self-paced learning while receiving expert guidance.

Additional Benefits with C|EH v13 AI:
CEH Practical Exam Voucher (valid for 1 year)
Additional Exam Retake for CEH Theory (just pay the administration fee)
CEH Engage Access
CodeRed Ethical Hacking Library
Global CEH Challenge (New challenges each month!)

So is it worth it for me? I just got eager to do it after seeing many job offers requiring it even for SOC positions.

[midnight osprey]

if a SOC is requiring a CEH it aint worth it.. they might as well ask for a CISSP for an entry level (which I have seen before...)

Id just get the book and do online studies, try that out for a bit and see how it goes for you

[clever cairn]

Hi

[spiral notch]

no

CEH is useless

companies that ask for CEH don’t know the industry either

i need some help, i have a school project with a vm (linnux, unbuntu, version ubuntu 20.04 LTS (focal fossa) 64 bit) its is locked with 2 users REMnux user and admin. i need to get in. anyone got suggestions?

[bronze canyon]

hmmmm this is beyond my limits
but i guess how you do it will be an experience for me too

@steady palm yo can we get assistance?

[halcyon flint]

alr rn i went into the vms grub and enabled networking now scanning host only to try snd get its ip and maybe bf it

[steady palm]

Can't help with that here bro sorry.Read our #📜・rules

[halcyon flint]

hmm alr, there goes my grade lol

but thanks

[crisp star]

What do you mean you need to get in?

[halcyon flint]

i need to get in the vm but i dont have the password for either admin or the user

its my final ctf

[crisp star]

So you are supposed to turn on the machine and perform a scanning to see what port is open and depending what is open you have to attack it?

It is a bit strange that they mentioned REMnux

[halcyon flint]

yesss

[crisp star]

Else the default password for REMnux is infected

or malware

[halcyon flint]

we use remnux in schooll for all the projects

[halcyon flint]

yup both dont work

[crisp star]

Strange REmnux is usually something you use for malware analysis

[spice oak]

guys what do you suggest for OSINT

[halcyon flint]

ik

[crisp star]

Well I'm probably missing context

[halcyon flint]

alr i have gotten a vm called leaksitefinal.ova and this is the vm for a data leak site and now i need to penetrate the dataleak site and tske over a c2 server. so with this i guess i have tp get in the vm

[whole patio]

So either your course material prepared you for it, or it didn't. If the story holds water at all, consult your notes

[halcyon flint]

thats true, but im stuck and i have no clue atm

[whole patio]

We're not helping with exams, ctfs, homework.. those are not about "who can I ask?", but what you are capable of

Hello

[jade raven]

This is my second time asking, is termux good starting point

[brisk frost]

It's basically a terminal in a sandbox so there isn't much you can do in it, it depends what you wanna do

[spiral notch]

for?

such a broad question

[brisk frost]

What up vivi?

[whole patio]

Same as Black Friday?

[wet gate]

yes

What you wanna imagine

[wooden canyon]

@oak robin I just breaked up 😂👍🏻

Like in the morning

[rapid oasis]

Hello everyone. I am thinking to make finally some labs for pentesting. Is kubernetes a good choice? Honestly I never tried it yet. If yes - would you recommend some course you liked?

[tough nebula]

Everything boss

[brisk frost]

You definitely baited me

[tough nebula]

All about hacking

[wet gate]

sure if u wanna learn more about kurbernetes

[rapid oasis]

So ... i am thinking about having like docker boxes now ... since i would know vulnerability, and e.g. i would like to test some exploit

i have enough of theories, i need a lab xD

let's say, i know there is RCE on some kernel version; i want to run the virtual machine, but having like a completely new setup in virtualbox seems like overkill

I am just thinking if this is the correct way to go on, or if i have some flaws in this logic

[wet gate]

not really

ur testing it in the most legitimate way then

[deft violet]

Importing a vulnerable machine is pretty much the easiest testing method.

[rapid oasis]

I guess you are right, but I am not sure if to keep all these older vms, i probably would like to revisit them in the future and they could be space spending

and as far as i know docker offers to have set of OS and installed tools

it seems to me very optimal to make them

[brisk frost]

Why revisit

[rapid oasis]

well to learn stuff i need to play around a little bit, but also revisit and refresh knowledge

it's too much info for me to grasp everything at frist try honestly

[brisk frost]

You dont need the vm for that, write down everything, screenshot eneverything

[rapid oasis]

this is probably a good point tho ...

alright, i will try few ways to find what suits the best.

Thak you very much guys!

[brisk frost]

You play around, you break, you breach, and then you throw it away

Hey guys, looking to install aircrack ng. Trying to figure out if my laptops WiFi adapter is compatible or is capable of injecting packets etc.. I am on a new laptop and my card is no where online not sure where to go from here. The guides for aircrack insist on insuring this info before download so I assume i shouldnt download and test to find out? Any Ideas. This is the info i have on my wifi adapter.
ID PCI 8086:a840:8086:00e4
Class 02-80 »
Type net/wireless »
Vendor Intel »
Name Wi-Fi 6E AX231 160MHz
Subsystem Intel

[wet gate]

not compatible

you need an external wifi adapter

[sand cedar]

That was fast

Please explain how you know so I learn

[deft violet]

Google search for the adapter will tell you pretty quick.

"Adapter name linux compatible monitor mode" or something similar

Pretty much anything with a mediatek chip is usually a pretty good choice. Atheros is real solid too. Avoid realtek chips like the plague. They're awful in linux and entirely unsupported in kali.

Hello

Hi everyone, I’d appreciate some guidance.

I have a BE in CSE, currently pursuing an MTech in CNE, and I’ve completed a 4-month hands-on VAPT internship. My interest is in offensive security and penetration testing.

From a hiring perspective, is it worth completing certifications like eWPT and PNPT before applying for pentesting roles, or should I focus more on projects, labs, and real-world experience? Any insights from people in the field would really help.

Oh wait I think I might miss read that. You try to use Telegram as some kind of OTP?

If that's the case you probably have to read trough the bot dev documentation for Telegram.

[jovial zephyr]

yes like send sms from telegram to a phone

like spoof

Hi

[hollow raft]

Hello

[sleek python]

You guys doing good?

[hollow raft]

I was wondering if there a website or a tool that can be used for facial search and can bring up any information about the person in the image.
This is for educational purpose 😑

[hollow raft]

doing good

I will also like to know how to use shodan

exit

sorry muscle memory😅

[fast bough]

Google photo search does that

[hollow raft]

Thanks but that is limited. I can't exactly use it as a facial recognition search engine

[plain arch]

Should I read a book about python or cyber security first?

[hollow raft]

You can

[plain arch]

Which one?

[hollow raft]

cyber sec first

@plain arch Then watch tutorials to learn Python cuz chances are you don't need too many technicalities to using python to create a scripts but you will need to know the fundamentals of transmitting and executing the script in a targeted device

[sand phoenix]

For those with google fiber, is anyone aware of a way to access the router other than the app? I would like to use an admin interface of some sort. It's a router that was provided by google and seems to be the modem and router. The options within the app are very limited...

[plain arch]

I have a book do i read it?

[hollow raft]

@plain arch If it is for cyber sec sure. Frankly any goes, doesn't matter which comes first. One just gets you started with wat you want , which I'm assuming is cyber sec and the other is just a long and unnecessary path to the same destination

[deft violet]

Why wouldnt you?

Read your book I mean

[deft violet]

Hes giving you bad advice on skipping programming basics. Start with the basic python. You need a good understanding of basic programming logic.

[hollow raft]

Hey we don't run people's opinions down to look better than. What did I say that was wrong @deft violet

It's true that you need the basics of programming logic but to achieve what exactly. I noticed you just answered with "You need a good understanding of basic programming logic" and not provide what you will need it for.

@deft violet If he/she wants to do cyber sec he/she won't need programming first, they would need to know the fundamentals of how the internet works and various understanding of the theoretical backbone of the technologies we use today to run business, jobs, construction, entertainment and schools, and that is the internet so as to know how to protect it and not learning how to print "hello world" (no offence). Programming is only practical and not technical in this context

[chilly merlin]

Not true

Coding is optional in this field

For the most part

[hollow raft]

@chilly merlin Thank you

Gn world and pls, anyone that has answers to my previous question, not too long ago from this comment, will be greatly appreciated. ❤️

[chilly merlin]

There's a course in security blue team called intro to OSINT you'd benefit from it

It's free and doesn't take up that much time

[hollow raft]

Fr? Hook me up comrade

[deft violet]

Ain't exactly gotta be a dev but a basic understanding of python? Without it you cant even read a script and tell what it does.

[chilly merlin]

Search up security blue team on Google

Login and look for intro to osint

[chilly merlin]

I can think of several fields where u don't have to look at a script

It's a good to have

Rather than a necessity

[hollow raft]

Why would you if you don't even know wat that script is used for.
You have to understand that python is just another tool, cyber security is a field meaning it encapsulate everything that deals with gaining access to unauthorised system and protecting them from such attacks. It doesn't matter if it is python, go, C or Rust, if you don't understand the basic of the field you intend to use the language in, then forget learning a language to being with

[hollow raft]

Sharp. I sorry @deft violet Looks like you don't know this field too well and I am a cyber security graduate 😑

[deft violet]

Right, but youre saying "you dont need to know one" and im saying "you need an understanding of both."

[deft violet]

Can you write a script?

[hollow raft]

This all started with you accusing me of misleading someone, when all I did was to advice them on which comes first not which is better than the other. Both are good but cyber sec is necessary that a freaking programming language.

[hollow raft]

Yes wats ur point

[deft violet]

Look, I apologize for coming across condescending. Wasn't the intention.

[deft violet]

So basic scripting was part of the cyber security degree? They figured you needed to understand it?

We dont help with this and dont mass tag. #📜・rules

[sick rock]

Okay sorry my bad

[deft violet]

This part is a fair point.

[hollow raft]

No it wasn't. Common misconception is learn a language first then find a field. Truth be told, get a field then learn a language. Most especially now we live in a world where programming language is coming to a singularity and in a matter of years a lot of programming language would hv similar features with just different syntax. So bottom line, learn the Goddamn field then the language, cuz unless you are a software engineer you would be wasting ur time. learning a language first FACTS!!!

[deft violet]

You're tilted bud. Why the anger? 😆

[hollow raft]

Oh no, we cool, young blud. That's just the sound of me knowing I won u in this argument, 😊

[deft violet]

I'm not young. And we're at an agree to disagree, partially anyway.

Frankly, after years of seeing people come into communities like this with 0 fundamentals and way over their head, im probably a bit callous to it.

[hollow raft]

Oh well this is the best I can get. Whatever! I don't care what you think just don't go telling someone to learn programming language before cyber sec or u would be cooked

[sand cedar]

Hey guys, i was looking into practising network injecting and what not but i need an external wifi adapter to do that can i still watch traffic with an internal wifi adapter on my laptop? and what software would be used for that? This is done on an internal server my dad has btw so not illegal lol

[deft violet]

Cooked huh.

[hollow raft]

I'm genuinely sorry to hear that, but unless u got the backing that supports ur claim u are better off keeping it to ur self 😊

[deft violet]

Backing that basic scripting is core curriculum in any cyber security education?

Literally every platform teaches it

[chilly merlin]

Let's agree to disagree

[hollow raft]

Sounds like a cool proj @sand cedar . Unfortunately I don't hv a clue of a software that can help you with that, but you could try asking AI if that is ok?
Check back later. Hopefully the pros will be around

[hollow raft]

Doesn't mean it is the first to learn to be considered a cybersecurity expert or practitioner

I can call 5 careers under cyber security field that need little to no basic skill in scripting

[deft violet]

You just need the external and it needs to support monitor mode and packet injection. Assuming youre doing this on linux avoid anything with a realtek chipset. They suck and aren't supported in kali at all. Atheros chip or a mediatek works. Just need wireshark for the capture and whatever tool you choose for injection. Aircrack or the like.

[hollow raft]

Apology accepted btw. No hard feelings fam

GGs ✌️

[hollow raft]

Do you by any chance know any facial recognition search engine

[deft violet]

Google image or yandex come to mind for image searches. They're not specifically facial recognition though they look for specific images.

Just googled it and found a couple paid.

so you expect experts to waste their time on you

and only get half

for all the work they’ve done

[craggy tide]

hes prob gonna claim all the credit

sometimes

it depends on the service they’re running

it increases the ground you can attack on though

sometimes you can find a vulnerable service

uh

are you pentesting

bug bounty?

hired by owner?

yea i dont trust that 💔

[spiral notch]

no

that’s the worst scanner

it’s like

most hacking tools you learn, you won’t use them

you will never use metasploit

in a real world scenario

you will never use nikto

mostly, yes

you’ll want and know what you want, being more specific

no because the open tools are from the 2000s

or well sure, that too

no malware in metasploit will pass today’s antiviruses

windows defender, even android knox

you code them

it depends de on what la gage you’ll use and need

language

[craggy tide]

python?

[spiral notch]

mostly yes

i’ve been doing cybersec for almost 7 years and mostly have used python for any payloads or exploit i’d make unless it’d have something to do with firmwares or L1/L2

But it doesn't boot at all

Idk what's going on

It boots but shuts off and boots and shuts off

[wet gate]

fully undetected

[dusky pelican]

I disabled secure boot but that doesn't work..might go back to my other os

[rain knot]

oh, I was thinking something completely different

[dusky pelican]

It's making me not trust Linux installations

[wet gate]

u should just run windows with a linux vm

[dusky pelican]

Eh I have to reinstall win11 then.

But win drains alot of battery so I switched but yeah..ur right

[wet gate]

just keep ur laptop plugged in

[rain knot]

like thought it was the random propaganda that isn’t actually helpful intelligence

[wet gate]

nah

[whole patio]

Its usually because people didn't follow the installation guides

[rain knot]

TIL!

[dusky pelican]

And risk the battery.. ?

[wet gate]

fud is also a crypto saying though

batteries do not explode or go bad that easily

[whole patio]

Was political way before that

[rain knot]

gotcha

so like fully undetected Android exploit in this case, I suppose

[whole patio]

"Doesn't work" is not an error description. Did you flash the installation medium with the tool(s) the documentation told us to use?

[wet gate]

in this case hes talking about malware

[dusky pelican]

Yes with rufus

[rain knot]

thanks for clarifying, I use that term way differently

[dusky pelican]

Gpt/uefi booted cleanly through USB. Installed through the setup as said in the video but nothing

[whole patio]

The install documentation told you to use rufus?

Cause many/most linux distros strongly advice against it

[dusky pelican]

Idk this dude I watched got me into it lol. Step my step

By*

Using Rufus so I did too

But eh.. it's fine..ATM it's unbootable

Plus a haswell processor on a vm is struggling with other applications open unless I have the VM only...

But that too is a pain..due to.windows 11s requirement of physical 4gb to run fine

Was planning on using aircrack-ng or learning code. Through the installation but that went horrid

I’ve got years of experience as a cable technician, but the contracting company I worked for went bankrupt, so I’ve been pushing to find new ways to support my family. I’d really appreciate insight from people with experience — network techs, pentesters, systems folks, anyone in the field.

whenever i want to learn something from someone, i never get an answer, so i want to learn how to ask someone to answer you

[lean carbon]

Hhhh ok bro, I was worried that’s why I asked. If it felt bad to you all, then sorry 😞.

[spiral nacelle]

maybe the person i ask is wrong or anythhing can be , but i think the way i ask is not bad

[wet gate]

just ask ur question

[spiral nacelle]

am an AIML guy whose currently into uncensored local LLMs or smth

so which LLM is perfect for that ?

( local and open sourced if possible )

[rain knot]

the one you build yourself

[spiral nacelle]

...

a good idea, but currently i dont have the resources to build one

[wet gate]

deephat.ai exists, venice ai exists

pretty sure they are on huggingface

[dusky pelican]

Strange.. seems like it's correct. There's balenaetcher..alternatives I could use is Rufus and others..

Rest of the steps are same..idk imma just assume it's a hybrid with csm

[spiral nacelle]

whats venice ai ? never heard of it

[wet gate]

https://venice.ai/

[whole patio]

Believe me when I say - use balenaetcher - like the official documentation says, and not rufus

[spiral nacelle]

yeah already opened it

hows it private and unbaised?

[dusky pelican]

Won't go for the alternatives then. Thanks! But imma stick with windows

For now

[whole patio]

there is a reason it says this

[wet gate]

its just an uncensored ai dawg

[whole patio]

right from help.zorin.com

[spiral nacelle]

bruh it just ended in 3 texts? and demands a pro

[wet gate]

lol tough

try deephat.ai in that case then

what are u trying to ask it anyways

[whole patio]

"the hacks"

[spiral nacelle]

lol no

i mean kinda

[spiral nacelle]

things abt jailbreaking , custom uncensored ai and practical knowledge abt them and stuff ?

[whole patio]

aka "the hacks"

[dusky pelican]

Claimed it as an alternative..Rufus but thanks..🌸 means much luv

[wet gate]

uncensored ais dont know shit they're pretty useless

[spiral nacelle]

then ?

[wet gate]

jailbreaking is more focused on prompt injection, uncensored AI would only know about the documented versions of that, apart from it, you can look into other resources https://github.com/yueliu1999/Awesome-Jailbreak-on-LLMs

[dusky pelican]

You need a VPN for this or something else?

[wet gate]

then nothing

[dusky pelican]

Or just cmd?

/terminal

[wet gate]

vpn for what

[spiral nacelle]

and abt custom uncensored local llms ?

[dusky pelican]

For that

[wet gate]

for what

[spiral nacelle]

lol

these guys are interestign

[dusky pelican]

It's fine..nvm

[wet gate]

you can look into this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GyllRd2E6fg

[wet gate]

if ur asking if u need a vpn to use an uncensored ai or go on that github page, no, obviously not

[spiral nacelle]

yeah i saw this video recently ( last night )

[dusky pelican]

Oh so ur not able to get caught with this..nice

New to these things so I apologize

[whole patio]

"caught" doing "what"?

[dusky pelican]

Jailbreaking

Jailbreaking the llms

[wet gate]

no LE gives a shit if you jailbreak an AI

[dusky pelican]

Lmao

Oh okay thanks 🫂

[dusky pelican]

Then I'm def trying this on windows. Cuz I wanna see what I can do..

[native verge]

I just want to say thank you to whoever has been helping me, but I was curious if anyone could recommend where I should start learning how to better protect my network without owning a computer

[wet gate]

exactly cuz pythonis a interpreted language

you can use libraries like pyinstaller or nuitka to compile your python source into an exe

with all libs included

[quartz imp]

Hello guys i know i shouldn't be talking about personal stuff I'm master student currently studying master in cybersecurity at abroad im international student and its way too much difficult on getting part time jobs here and im really in trouble as i dont have living expenses i dont have much know on cybersecurity but im thinking joining as intern but still i get rejections can anybody give me some proper suggestions and best idea to get jobs or make myself better in cybersecurity

[wet gate]

for getting better at cyber, u just have to consume knowledge and train practically by testing your knowledge

to get jobs, literally just go get a job at ur local mcdonalds or local supermarket or something

not gonna get one as a beginner

[brave tendon]

Hello 👋

[quartz imp]

Do you guys know any reliable remote job site for cybersecurity

[wet gate]

go look on google

[quartz imp]

I tried many places sir but i can't get any lead

[wet gate]

tough perhap get more certs

[dusky pelican]

Eris.. think I found the reason it didn't want to boot. There's no grub.. Rufus isn't the issue..when I go to boot options zorin is there, indicating it is installed but it doesn't want to directly boot into zorin

Rather wants me to go to boot options and boot from there..got it running on the SSD

Pretty OS ngl..

Now where do I find device manager on hefe

[rain knot]

You can!

[dusky pelican]

Think without the gov we wouldn't have PCs to begin wih

With*

[rain knot]

anyone with enough determination and resources is probably going to eventually get in, why would the FBI or NSA be interested in you and the OS you create, though?

[dusky pelican]

Well ur gonna have to code for drivers..or else make a auto grabber for drivers

Needed to allow the hardware to run smoothly. So u can select the resolution u want

[wet gate]

are u capable of going to youtube.com and asking said questions

if so u will learn a lot

[dusky pelican]

Operating systems are cool. Just alot of works..

But don't let it discourage ya..u got this

Usually avx I'd run on 256 bit or a 128 bit processing. Due to.my.bootloader animated gradient. Which calls the GOP.. really cool..so after POST it calls the gpu to render. Not using umm(unified memory.managment) but an adaptive memory management system

Resetti what is this discord server without.you

[wet gate]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t-aRlwLI-b0

[dusky pelican]

We would be helpless by now

[dusky pelican]

Not Linux based but it called the gpu for processing and allows it not to freeze since it stops the processing and stops everything

[wet gate]

no because the NSA and FBI have intercepted underwater internet cable lines

[dusky pelican]

Or windows based or Mac based

[wet gate]

its just one thing

its just software that allows a computer to communicate with hardware devices

[dusky pelican]

Without the drivers it doesn't work properly as it's supposed to. Unfortunately

Drivers help it alot..especially dgpus on blender for rendering n what not

Consider designing ur layouts

[dusky pelican]

Got into zorin. What do you think? Impressed?

[wet gate]

what do i think about what

zorinos? never used it, dont know about it

the fact u fixed zorinos since you been having problems with it? congrats well done

[dusky pelican]

Thanks❤️. Means much🫂

I wouldn't say fixed cuzni can't directly boot into it. Assume the efi is missing or grub

[woven anvil]

ZorinOS is pretty nice.
It had a newer kernel when i used it than PopOS, but ended up on Arch(CachyOS) in the end.

[dusky pelican]

Oh damn. that's cool, is cachy worth it?

The os change sorry😭

[woven anvil]

at the time, yes, because i got a much newer kernel, which allowed me to play marvel rivals

but its an OS. it runs software. It doesn't matter too much which one you use. Learning about how it works in general is more important.

[dusky pelican]

Oh that's cool, yeah its def worth learning which I love. Tho. Mokka(arch) was almost my first os

[dusky pelican]

Lol nice

[deft violet]

Cachy have any repo issues with pulling aur packages or does it update libraries from the regular arch repos? I still have horror stories in my mind from trying manjaro years ago 😆

[whole patio]

You really should get out of the habit of asking Chatbots.. the short and long of it - yes and no.

Essentially no

Your "usb stick" could enter passwords, but it would not know when it was successful

what you are thinking about is colloquially known as "bad usb" device, and it has no back channel.. it just types blindly

you could, if you wanted to

but those are specialized devices.. not your usualy usb storage sticks

and yes, those can be attached to phones, too.. but those do actually lock pretty soon

[gray fiber]

chat I'm having a problem with my code in python

currently making a simple yt video downloader for training purposes and I'm confused by how I use the terminal to use pyinstaller

can anyone help?

[spiral notch]

yes

it is

i’ve made them and at some point almost finished a yt tutorial on how to do it

but you can’t do it with a normal usb stick

[spiral notch]

be more specific

what are you struggling with

first of py installer is unnecessary and only lacks it into an exe

second of all

you just open the terminal/command prompt

[gray fiber]

yeah because i want to make it an exe

and I'm using the terminal but im confused

[spiral notch]

and type pyinstaller and then the additional arguments for any configs you wanna do

and then the file name

after a few attempts

yes

that’s why brute forcing is the least efficient hacking method to exist

in the world

mhm

making usbs that quickly type stuff is rather useful for unlocked pcs

can disable antivirus gain admin permissions and install malware in a blink of an eye

[summer nacelle]

i bought one of the crappy expensive rubber duckies years ago. had usb c and usb A, been collecting dust in my drawer since then

[spiral notch]

there are

[spiral notch]

yes, it’s better to make a DIY one

rubber ducky is like 100 bucks

i made the same exact one fkr 4 bucks

no?

lmfao

also crazy “good” hackers existed/exist here to an extent

there used to be the founder of anonymous here asw

just why would one go around yapping abt how great they are

it’s a bit childish

go on

many

that’s why we don’t openly yap about our cybercrimes here

and have some decent logic

there’s obviously hundreds of feds here

i know

[lunar void]

Cybercrimes????

https://tenor.com/view/fbi-agent-gif-17540199569095667102

[spiral notch]

obviously

[wet gate]

there are hardly any actual threat actors that pull off large attacks/campaigns here

not many that talk here actively

there used to be some though they got banned

0

[spiral notch]

lmfao

so first

you ask about feds

[wet gate]

because they spoke about it

[spiral notch]

and now you ask how we find out

are you fr

[wet gate]

they are also known in the community from their name

[spiral notch]

fishy asf

no?

tf

are you one

[wet gate]

no

[spiral notch]

lmfao

[shadow fractal]

💀

[wet gate]

it’s a fairly advanced topic to understand so no surprise there

[summer nacelle]

Operating systems security is a super cool area of security. I hated learning it at the started but it was well worth it in the end. Also what finally got me from moving all my machines from W11 to Linux

[spiral notch]

@gray fiber fixed?

[gray fiber]

yeah

made the exe

[spiral notch]

coolio

grats

dont forget the different flag

s

they can be a gfame changer

--onefile --icon and so on

[gray fiber]

oh shitttt i forgot onefile

[spiral notch]

lmfao nice

now

if u move the exe

out of that folder

it wont work

anymore

x-x

[gray fiber]

oh

makes sense

thx btw

[spiral notch]

nws ;3

badusb devices are fantastic for awareness seminars, and you can do some fun stuff with them, but "brute force this login" is really not among them
I once wrote a badusb script to unlock those hardware keelog keylogger devices, if ever found in the wild.
Thats how I found an undocumented backdoor in them ^^

[spiral notch]

uhm okay?

[whole patio]

you really should get that idea out of your head

Oh well, I'm not your real mom. Do what you want

[spiral notch]

that

youre thinking of

omg

how do i put this

in the nicest way possible

[summer nacelle]

karmas a thing yknow Sasuke what goes around comes around

[spiral notch]

actually ill rather refrain

[shadow fractal]

@spiral notch Go ahead

😭

I want to hear

[spiral notch]

smh

okay

so

[whole patio]

If I were forced to say something, I'd say something along the lines of "You are more of an ideas guy".. and maybe put a little more foundation into it, before you say whatever is on your mind. All this may be a new world to you, it isn't for the rest of the world

youtube lied to you, with pretty much everything they presented to you. Those hacking channels are monetizing kids and young adults fascination portraying a world that is open to you if you just retype what they show you.. but those are pretty much all staged, faked, cut for engagement and making you sub to their channel.. thats the only reason they present it like its a secret they share with you

[spiral notch]

LMFAO

[whole patio]

Hacking means, in a nutshell, that you can bet on knowing systems, protocols, implementations and technologies better than the people that administrate them for a living

[shadow fractal]

Another thing to add since I doubt someone read the #📜・rules / this is ETHICAL server, not pushing keyloggers in to random pcs or wtv ur plan is (we do not have any proof and we will NOT be risking it)

[whole patio]

And this is not something that comes easy to almost all people

[jaunty kindle]

hello all - looking for any regular tindie shoppers who are hopefully either familiar with a particular seller… OR how accurate their customer rating system is for sellers? The item I’m looking to buy is sold out everywhere else or super backlogged, and the seller is in China. I have no problem with China, but I do reasonably have to worry about potential fakes & also how long it’s gonna take to ship to the US (😢) - I did find one other site that I was looking for, but it was located in Europe and while the prices were higher, I’m thinking that the shipping rates and time for the package to actually arrive would be significantly shorter… thoughts anyone?

oh, and I was not trying to be secretive about what I’m in the market for - trying to buy some of the evil crow cables since all the OMG ones are now multiple hundreds of dollars each 🫣

[spiral notch]

there is none

[chilly merlin]

Two 5090 pcs

[whole patio]

I was just checking for EvilCrow Cables ^^

Be prepared to find it somewhere else
