What is the best /sec/ language to learn first?

My advice might be a bit outdated but python was a good first language for me and I still use it when I need to throw something together ASAP.

If you have no programming knowledge already, you'll want to understand the fundamentals first. Python works for that, but plenty of people (myself included) started with C, which isn't difficult to learn and essential to specializing in security.

Following that, you'll want to study up on computer architecture and get your feet wet with understanding assembly most likely. There are many good books that teach x86 assembly from the ground up. To supplement writing assembly, you should practice opening up programs in a debugger and stepping through the disassembly to try to grok what's going on. The IDA Pro Book is good for learning IDA, but it's more about learning IDA than learning assembly, so you should know your assembly well before you get there.

If you get that far, you can figure out where to find more material to learn on your own.

>>61199148
He didn't ask what languages to learn to write websites. He asked what language to learn first to get into security. A grasp on assembly (and by extension C) is fundamental in order to reverse engineer binaries and develop exploits. I'd also like to add that while Python is perhaps a simpler language to understand; it is more sensible to learn C first and work your way up to Python as you get more comfortable with the fundamentals of computer architecture; as these concept transfer into many higher level languages, but will likely seem abstract if studied at that level.

>>61194960

because only gatekeepers maintain and post them. Philosphically you can consider /cyb/ + /sec/ threads to be the gateway between two vastly oppositional and dissimilar lifestyles and mindsets.

System76 is VAR (value added reseller). They just repackage/re-brand chinese makers stuff. The name of the maker escapes me, but if you're interested I'm sure google will help you.

A person would be better served by buying some later model Dell/Lenovo/HP laptop for a fraction of the price, in my opinion. If it breaks there'll be tons of replacement parts on eBay.

Since the US legalised space mining I guess the action will be in private sector. That could still turn hot. In fact many have set their eyes on Psyche, an asteroid which is so dense it probably is the remains of the core of a planetesimal. This would mean it is so full of precious metals that it would make the Chinese stranglehold on precious and rare earth metals implode overnight.

Unless of course the Chinese shot down the mining expedition. Given they probably gunned down 3000 students in 1989 this would just be par for the course.

You cryptofags are hilarious, refuse to even acknowledge the huge problems with crypto.
USD can only be manipulated by the Fed, and if we switched back to the gold standard that wouldn't be a problem. Cryptocurrency can be manipulated by any country or organization in the world with enough money, which is already happening. The only people pushing crypto are NEETs trying to make money.
Paypal and banks require personal information for their users, its only a matter time before crypto is forced to require the same or be banned, which completely defeats the one advantage crypto has, anonymity.

And? It doesn't have the same ramifications as money backed by reserve currency.

>The only people pushing crypto are NEETs trying to make money.
A lot of crypto requires a decent amount of startup capital, something NEETs wouldn't have, so try again.

>Paypal and banks require personal information for their users, its only a matter time before crypto is forced to require the same or be banned
Whoa, nice statism.
You know banning stuff (certainly digital) doesn't work right?
And even moreso when it is DECENTRALISED.

>which completely defeats the one advantage crypto has, anonymity.
Crypto isn't anonymous, logs last forever.
The only way to be anonymous using it is general /sec/ implementations, like degrees of seperation (VPNs, proxies) and also using new wallets as often as possible.

So, all I've gathered from your post is, that you have a superficial knowledge of the subject that seems to be gleaned from poorly written 'articles' on it.

Not him but your definition of sophist is wrong, therefore your interpretation of a faux-sophist could be held true.

afaik sophism posits truth couldn't be limited to just one side of the argument but if you're preaching to the choir at least bark at the right tree.

Most seem to be apathetic about the philosophical implications of the uncanny technologies of the near future as the existential issues invoked by artificial intelligence, transhumanism, and the technological singularity continue to evade our collective consciousness."

>>61207513

a sophist is a teacher and were held in derision because they hindered progress, therefore sophists took a negative connotation

since you took the position of a teacher using words that he didn't understand you became the sophist however qualifying him as a faux-sophist (non-argument and faux-sophist are double negatives) from his retort of "Not all technological advancements are advancements." because he himself admitted he speaks in memes therefore an opinion which again is derided to put philosophers in better light offering true knowledge

so qualifying him as a sophist and teacher and saying he's not a teacher while using non-sequitur, not addressing the argument is ad hominem

therefore since the context of a sophist is erroneous since he did claim to be a sophist using memes >>61206037
then being a faux sophist, not a false teacher can possibly make him a true philosopher

hope you get this, it's logic

You do know a word can have more than one meaning and those meanings can change because of semantic drift?
Not to mention, I just clarified the definition of the word I was using (the modern one).
In other words, you argument is a non-argument as it simply doesn't apply in this case.
I also linked several dictionaries with the modern definition of the phrase.
So no, your 'argument' and 'logic' are not applicable in this, sorry.

>>61205643
>>61207902

>falsified everything you said and you've made a non-argument as your faux-sophist retort.

falsified, non-argument and faux-sophist

I understand your semantic drift and your intention isn't fundamentally wrong but I'm underlining that since what you determine negatively combined then can become real because sophism isn't positive esp. with regard to crypto

I speak French and the word faux means false and sophism exists. The false discourse, the one of sophists exists, therefore one would need to use Parmenides forbidden way where the non-being is, in a way
nothing exists
even if something exists, man can grasp it
even if man can grasp it, he cannot formulate or explain it to others

it's just that you dismissed his discussion by claiming to falsify everything he said which is a loaded word in currency and crypto (another point of discussion is why did you falsify everything he said and not tell the truth?) his non-argument (not addressed) and calling him a faux-sophist so it's effectively absurd

there is no such thing as a non-argument because you would have to prove this in dialectic discourse and dismissing everything pulls a chain reaction of negatives, my point being that one should focus on the truth rather than falsehoods supporting truth

Truth as the highest value, proposing that it could be discovered through reason and logic in discussion.

Sophists required neither logic nor proof and the faux-sophist could be real (real sophist or philosopher is again another discussion). This is the Socratic method to show that a method that leads to a contradiction; thus, forcing the withdrawal of the hypothesis as a candidate for truth.

The LG Google Nexus 5 was very popular for a while. I myself am highly interested in the Neo900 crowdfunded reboot of the Nokia N900, built with modern-ish open-hardware. But really, anything with that supports pentesting over both the 5GHz and 2.4GHz band frequencies (which is most phones these days) can be used.

It's good but it's a little slow. I just upgraded from the x200 to the x220. The reason was because the x220 supports 16GB of ram @ 1866MHz which is great for doing my network lab tests as well as code compiling and just plain faster overall. Also having a displayport and usb 3.0 port (got the i7 version) is pretty nice.

Too bad they're not sending people into space any time soon.

This essay is being shared in many security-centric sites online.

It is also being retweeted and shared by multiple InfoSec/NetSec professionals, including Weld Pond and The Grugq.

It maybe good for the paste as it covers alot of info about getting into penetration testing, and Info/NetSec.

Quiet a bit of general methodology is shared as well.

In the interest of transparency, I am the writer; however, I generally dread attention and do not share much online (though lately I feel it is extremely important to do so).

I also do not own the site it is posted on and do not gain financially in any way through its distribution.

I love this general OP; I consume hours of InfoSec/NetSec/Cyberpunk media everyday.

This general is one I actually always look forward to and almost always completely enjoy.

So thank you very much Op and everyone who contributes here.

The CIA often has physical access to targeted computers, that's what makes them different from the NSA (which focuses on remote attacks). CIA has networks of people willing and able to physically compromise a target, so the software they develop often reflects that.

that's actually pretty cool man, thanks for the stories
I want to get into this field of work, I think I'd have to get a CompSci degree to even be considered (im not skilled enough yet, anyway)

Any tips for self teaching? I'm using some online sites to teach myself programming, youtube tuts etc on how to work linux distros and pentesting tools. I'm not just installing kali and changing terminal text color to green btw

>>61212125
It's different for everybody. My best piece of advice would be to play to your strengths. Are you a coder? A sysadmin? A hardware guy? Play to your strengths.

I was CS but it really doesnt matter what degree you have. Get good at something. Coding, windows sysadmin, nix sysadmin, doesnt matter. Get really good at it.
Once you're good at it and can build it, then you can start learning how it breaks.
I wiped away windows and installed Ubuntu and used that for all of college. I got pretty good with Linux.
I did a lot of boot2root challenges (vulnhub.com), since they're all linux based
I did some CTFs (CCDC, Pros vs Joes)
My last year of college, I flew out to Vegas for Defcon, and got hired by a company that does pentesting/IR/forensics. They paid for me to take my OSCP which took about 6 months to get, but if you want to get into pentesting you're going to need that. Forget about Sec+ and CEH and those other bullshit certs.

>>61211017
Thanks man; eye-opening piece.

>>61212174

>>61212074
I'm a junior sysadmin that recently made it out of helpdesk hell and I hate (and enjoy) reading shit like this because it's so disheartening. The company I work for has so many bad practices and there's only so much I can push for to try and change without getting the "yeah yeah it's been working fine all these years go away" bs. It's so bad literally half the company has the same password that never expires and I always fear some shit will happen then get blamed for it.

>>61212263

Do you have a resume? Is it a single page with no bullshit (nobody cares about the bible camp you did in high school)
If you need stuff to fill, put some CTFs you did. There's a lot of them. I think i saw the list in the sticky somewhere.
Put all the code/scripts you've written on github and have a link on your resume.
Start a blog. Blog about shit you research, CTFs you did, etc. It doesn't have to be new, or advanced, but it has to show your knowledge of the subject. This will put you ahead of 80% of the competition in my opinion
If you're an overweight neckbeard, that can sometimes be OK. You need to know how to talk to people. The stereotypical basement dwelling autismo will never get far in the security industry. If you're an autismo nerd good luck, you better be wicked smart.

>In college? Hell nah, i went to a real shitty school. Besides, i was still green in college and not the badass i am now
Phew. That's a big relief for me, honestly. At least I still have time, even though I constantly feel like I don't...

I'm going to defcon too this year, and I'm hoping I can finally find the right inspiration (which I once had when I was in HS) to actually get better at what I'm actually good at by objective measures.

I seem to have plateaued in my skills in that I 'want' to learn more and git gud, yet I have no motivation or inspiration to put in the work. I mean, I'm one big knowledge accumulation sponge and I <know> about so many things, but I've yet to put a lot of those things to practice. Although, it was those things I put in practice that gave me what I know...

Fuck I'm a convoluted mess. I just hope I can figure myself out, or at least find somebody to give me the right direction, before it's too late.

>>61212506
not quite basement dwelling autismo, but not on the doing ctfs and having a ton of code on github track either, kinda too much of a slacker to get the extra curricular thing, which puts me in the middle of the pack i suppose.

I dropped out of college after a few days after I realized I could teach myself all the coursework in a much shorter period of time, and you learn better when you teach yourself.

>>61213286
It gives me pacing, structure and direction I tend to struggle with on my own. I'm able to network with other students (almost got a job off one), and I can clarify/ask questions/get details from the teachers - which is something I'm finding myself wishing I could do with my current online math course, which is pretty much 100% self-study. All well and good except when I run into a problem and have nobody to ask to help work it out.

I know post-secondary education is mostly a meme these days, but I'm not in debt and it has helped more than hurt me so far.

Neighbor bought a used laptop and asked me to put Microdick Wangblows 10 on it. It looked stolen so I declined but not before I tried harvesting all the private data on it with a live-USB distro hoping for someones private nudes.

>>61216152
Yagi is a type of antenna, not a brand, and they are good for this frequency band. You can make these yourself using the NEC antenna design software.

Higher gain means greater directivity so you need to be more careful with the direction you point this in. Also **NEVER** look along the beam, even the reflected wave can be harmful.

If you do not know why you do need to read up.

>>61211928
I'm glad this turned from anther pointless insult of its kind to solid substance.
>>61212036 :
To elaborate a bit on the substance for those starting out:
1) Scraping/dorking for naming conventions then a spray attack vs. OWA (especially within a large enterprise or any company with high employee turnover)is viable and will be for the forseeable future,

2 Ruler is an awesome, flexible choice for any network where Exchange is in play. It doesn't get the credit it deserves (likely because you need to put some actual thought/strategy into maximizing Ruler's potential (kind of like Nishang's relationship with Powershell; Ninjacopy is an unsung hero).

3) Also, Responder (and DNS in general) has been helping pay my bills for awhile now. Netbios and LLMNR poisoning are magic (especially if GPO/LGPO is configured to make any allowances for NTLMv1 or LM).

4) If you figure out general quitting time for a shift (and the other strategical conditons are right), WPAD poisoning can reap wonders at 4:45pm on a Friday (I see very few DNS entries for .dat, employees will click right through the prompt on their way to the weekend, minimal occurrence of reporting to IT, clear text creds under the right conditions).

5) I have sat through numerous "security presentations" in the last 9 months from my employers Microsoft Rep:

Along with Pass the Hash (the more common techniques usually utilizing circa 1999 PSexec and the younger PSexec_psh versions), Microsoft is finally (evangelizing) taking mimikatz seriously 10 years too late (though Credentialguard is still mostly a joke vs the hype).

i read through whatsapp's end to end encryption details and it seems safe.
i'm not a security expert, what do you think? os whatsapp safe?

>>61212272
If you want something done about it, you need to exploit the issue yourself to make them aware.

>>61218282
Well don't do this but maybe write something up to show something is possible. If you have a dedicated netsec team just notify them through email and it's not really your problem anymore.

>>61218272
no, its still proprietary shit
only runs on backdoored devices anyway, so you should already be careful with what you say and who you say it to

>>61219913
therefore it doesn't matter that the encryption method is open source?
also, does that mean i shouls abandon hope in terms of searching for a safe chat app on android?

>>61220672
The problem is never the encryption algorithm, it's the implementation. It doesn't matter how secure your encryption algorithm is if the app itself is compromised. Proprietary code can't be independently independently audited, so it's a crapshoot whether the encryption matters at all.

Glad to see at least one other person here who could hack their way out of a paper bag

The non-ops people at my company have been saying credential guard will be the end of network pentesting as we know it, as 90% of my pentests are what i call "the credential theft shuffle"
I think not. Not only are there pretty strict requirements for enabling credential guard that will limit rollout, but it breaks a lot of SSO capabilities. Plus its not on by default.

As much as I enjoy network pentesting, I dont see myself doing this for very long. Once you've done a few pentests they really are all similar.

As a continuation of >>61220766, if you MUST use a phone, use a cheap burnerphone, that isn't tied to name through a bank account or the such like.
I'd also advise to change it periodically, at least every month, though weekly or fortnightly would be best.
And to avoid tower pinging to be able to be used to trace the route taken with the associated number, have an agreed timeable for when the phone is on and off.
For instance:
>6am
>12pm
>6pm
>12am
Or:
>9am
>12pm
>3pm
>6pm
>9pm
Something along those lines.

I understand how NetPen in many shops could get redundant if you aren't there just to collect a check (especially testing Windows networks); for a few years (and sometimes still) it was/is ingress/Local privs then some combination of priv escalation, persistence, hash/creds exfiltrate/capture/dup, Pivot/PsExec/WMI/WMISpray, lateral movement/some variation of Pass the Hash to the win.

Now in many cases (and probably for the next 5- ten years) it can easily be ingress, than some combination of Responder/CrackMap/BloodHound/DeathStar (and whatever Powershell framework, tool or custom module/script you may need to fill in the gaps).

Fortunately I get a really varied amount of engagements, many with PLC, SCADA in play on critical infrastructure, which raises the stakes on a fuck up a (challenge I am eternally grateful for).

Credentailguard is the crusade of eyeless managers leading the blind; it sounds impressive to the manager and their managers when the Microsoft rep demos it. Meanwhile, they have 200 issues with GPO/LGPO that would better secure them but won't be touched during the Win 10 implementation.

ANd when they/their customers do get exploited, they can blame it on an "advanced actor able to circumvent Credentialguard!"

All of the latter are why I am trying to help those who really have an interest in this field.

I'm not certain if cyberpunk automatically equates with anarchist tendencies, or whether anarchists and criminals use the underlying principle of decentralization as a utilitarian motive to justify a perceived oppressive threat versus some unlawful activity, which self-reinforces the notion of "us versus them" black and white thinking.

The government isn't fundamentally threatening under a premise of authority, but serves as a structure to regulate society and civilization. While unfairness, injustice and criminality may exist within the system as a double standard to protect lobbied interests to prosecute under an aegis balance, condoning a black market is one thing but having organized crime use it as a destabilizing leverage under the lofty security of technology is another. The government wouldn't pose a threat if the activity is deemed legal. One would need to look into the ethics of realistically why the law is in place. When people overcome "the threat level generated by the state" then a destabilizing reform is in action and beneath this is an organized interest. As one may consider that black markets could be condoned as more profitable when stocks run out with competition weeded out. When you look at the rule of law, it's important to note that this is applied with the power of discretion which means that one doesn't just autistically apply everything by the book but it's a matter of rule. When people want to rule themselves let it be with morality of intention, but the very moment a step is taken outside of hubris and naiveté one may ask whether organized groups control a higher level of decentralization within a centralized structure as the mirror image butterfly effect is shown within an artificial ecosystem of darker markets. afaik the oppression would stem from machines and transhumanism mainly.

>>61224807

You've mentioned DPR, see how the founder of KAT got arrested.

>>61225225
I see, that would explain it

I don't know if this is a silly question to ask, but is there a surefire way to quickly build experience?

If I want to get better at grokking assembly and find low level vulnerabilities, should I be writing my own assembly code, reverse engineering existing software, analyzing malware, or something else entirely?

>>61225237
>Implying I support anarchy.
I don't.
I understand the need for the state.
Also, state authority is derived from threat, laws only function by offering a threat based incentive.
However, not everyone wants to break the law, yet that doesn't mean that people don't exploit it on a day to day basis.
Using means to decrease the threat level, such as a VPN, or a proxy, is part of the reason why much criminality occurs online.
Anything else?

>>61225248
I'm sort of in the same boat as you currently, my approach has been to read about exploit development with books like Shellcoders Handbook and get better at knowing how to code something in a secure way so I can recognize when something is not coded securely (Secure Coding in C/C++ is a good book for this).

After you get a foundation, just start doing old CTFs and try your hand at vulnerable VMs. Also, learn basic reversing and play around with binaries in a debugger like GDB or Immunity Debugger to get a feel for what is actually going on at the lower levels.

>mr3040 is in use, and can't get to it right now

703n the blue one, I use that for overnight wps attacks, nothing too special, I might swap that out for rpi zero, idk yet.

>>61225305

I'd say as a reversal laws function as a constraint by offering a freedom based incentive. Not everyone wants to be constrained within that freedom and the exploit of an edge is to make a change or equalize a vulnerability to use as a tool to threaten or gain an advantage.

VPN/proxies are just tools and more a matter of security and privacy without being triggers for criminality to occur although the natural proxifying agent of digitalization may induce that behavior. Criminality exploits and uses any means that decrease the risk of detection from law enforcing factors. With regard to BTC and cryptocurrency, at the same where the fundamentals can be right but the use can be nefarious, a capitalization on that edge occurs based on a cashless society with transparency predominant, where all laws would need to be respected. This lack of middle ground and incentive for personal gain is made possible in a bubble of middle-men rather than within the system. One may ask if birds of the same feather really flock in the same direction.
