/cyb/ + /sec/: Cyberpunk and Cybersecurity General: OPs Back Edition

Good evening.

first for niggers

I want everyone who enters this thread to tell me what they are currently studying.

>>61636319
A mixture.
I'm currently living off of a trust fund, I spent between eight and ten hours a day studying physics, mathematics; chemistry, computer science and security and a smaller amount of time on electronic engineering and programming.

Daily reminder that you have the power and resources to beat the CIA/FBI/any US-puppet bullshit if you really want to.

>>61636319
I'm not in school anymore, but I keep learning at work every day. So, programming.

>>61636355
H-how?

>>61636319
Starting digital forensics, feels comfy man.

Between that and writing my novels I'm feeling good about things. Can't wait till I'm all trained up and certified.

>>61636455
Biochemistry is pretty interesting, to be honest.
Mycology and entomology is more of my bae though.

>>61636455
What do you want to use biochemistry for?

>>61636505
constructing bombs

>>61636576

Covering the Basics of CS (Self-study). I also am creating a personal curriculum that I want to follow, sort of like a skill-tree, which also branches out into other areas like personal fitness, social engineering, languages etc.

Basically, finding the closes equivalents of a cyberpunk hacker I can, and studying that stuff (while not falling into a delusion of course)

>>61636856
Write up the skill-tree, please, I'd be interested to see it?

>>61636867
Once it's finished I will. It's still work-in-progress and all over the place. Trying to find a nice template too, or creating one.

Officially as going to college nothing. In my free time I'm trying to learn to hard my server and to put some webservers, I guess after that I will try again some programming.

>>61636986
Everyone should learn C.
In fact, everyone should learn C as their first language.

>>61636986
learn python for now, it will suit you well enough.

Check any email addresses he has against dumps, and grab passwords.

The chances of reuse are very high.

If it's not straight reused, pump it into hydra and get a list to try with Jack the Ripper.

So, for folks that uses containers or VMs. Is better in /sec/ terms to use NAT or bridges with the virtual interfaces? I could get everything working with just the bridge but I'm feeling like NAT will give me some kind of extra security.

Little bump.

DNSCrypt encrypts DNS queries to DNS servers that also have it like OpenNIC non-logged name servers, DNSSEC authenticates DNS queries to root name servers, Unbound is a DNS resolver, and NSD is a self hosted authoritative name server. So:

DNSCrypt directing to an OpenNIC name server
or
Unbound with DNSSEC enabled directing to root name servers
or
Unbound directing to your own instance of NSD and enabling DNSSEC on that instance

What strategy is the best?

>>61640554
To be honest, they all sound equally valid.
So bump for extra input.

I could create a library from the amount of books I only read the first ~15 pages of before forgetting about them forever

>>61641588
Sounds like you need a book journal and a study schedule.

Looks like Unbound can be mixed with more than DNSSEC, also OpenNIC had me some problems, I am trying to see what could be.

While I experiment with DNSCrypt, contributing some DNS providers:

Russian law targetting anonymous services has finally been adopted. Under it, any service allowing access to banned internet resources will itself get banned and its access limited within the country. Obviously the biggest target is the TOR network where such blocks are impossible. VPN services if they want to continue operating within the country would have to block user access to specific resources accordingly.

No surprise, from Tsardom to Soviet Union, Russia was known for its censorship and with a former KGB officer in charge, it was only a matter of time.

>>61643815
Threads are pretty fast. Idk if you're OP, but any relevant new articles with dates could be posted right after OP and keep a window so it wouldn't overcrowd. Look at how it's done in this general: >>>/vr/4155993
Posters raise OPs awareness of new articles or content by replying to the OP.

>>61644217
Theres been censorship there since catherine the great. I wonder how the Russians will respond. There's already a lot of dissidence in that country, but there is also a cultural apathy, so who knows.

>>61644218

Also: get yourself a library with a comfy chair.

Reading is also more pleasant when you also enjoy a splendid cuppa tea such as Darjeeling tea. For more demanding texts I recommend Sencha.

The pasta is here: https://pastebin.com/9uYXMhVm

It appears that the word "Wullenweber" makes this pasta unsearchable also with Bing. Very strange.

I wrote that radio primer, I would be happy to update it if I get some inputs.

>>61644298
The cultural apathy really stems from peoples of that region preferring stability over freedom. It's the same reason why many mainland Chinese nationals view the Great Firewall as a positive thing. Their cultural equivalent of 1984 is not a monolithic authoritarian state -- rather, it's a weakened anarchistic state.

>>61644514
Imagine how harsh the censorship must be if even those cultures are starting to see dissidents speaking up en masse.

Web application security.

Did you know there was an exploit in the Tomcat servers on versions less than 6.0.18 that would allow cross site scripting on the server generated error page? You could theoretically create a link attempting to access a document titled:

documentTitle = "window. location. href = 'www. malicious website .com'" (surrounded by script tags, 4chan thinks i'm trying to set up xss on one of my posts and keeps rejecting it lol)

and upon viewing that link, it would take you to the error page, render that javascript and take you to the malicious website you linked to.

>>61645939
I skirted the spoilers.

However you mentioned "the book" so I think you are missing out on something. The origins (and this is no spoiler) is in the short story "Johnny Mnemonic", usually found in the collection "Burning Chrome".

The connections are there but not very relevant so you can read the Sprawl Trilogy before Johnny Mnemonic without any problems.


Anyway, I second >>61645989 opinion.

>>61645354
Check /r/computerforensic

Immense resources, and get the humble bundle going on too, the full $15 is worth it

>>61647272
>he origins (and this is no spoiler) is in the short story "Johnny Mnemonic", usually found in the collection "Burning Chrome".
Wait, I saw (and have downloaded since that day) Jhonny Mnemonic. Would you mind to elaborate?

You just made me search and seems like the film is based on a book from the same title.

>>61647340

Johnny Mnemonic was a short story of Gibson's written before Neuromancer. It, along with New Rose Hotel, and Burning Chrome established the sprawl before Neuromancer. It's worth reading them. The first two were turned into movies.

You can find a compilation of Gibson's short stories here:

http://project.cyberpunk.ru/lib/burning_chrome/

At a minimum you should read the stories I mentioned above, they're quite short. Burning Chrome is my favorite.

>>61647340
The movie was a mixed bag and critically it lacked Molly Millions, a disappointment for many.

Those who had read the short story did often not like the movie. It also dragged in features from Gibson's other books.

Many of those who had not read the story enjoyed the movie.

When the movie was made Keanu Reeves was starring in Speed which did well. SO the executives behind Johnny Mnemonic were absolutely set on also this movie having to feature a speeding bus. This tells you quite a lot about the Hollywood "thinking".

>>61647325
Someone posted a mega with it three threads ago

>>61647596
>if your PCIe bus slows down BELOW 60, it will explode!

>>61647514
>>61647596
Now I just learn Neuromancer has a film too lol.

I actually read a few months ago full Gibson's Trilogy, and it left me with mixed feelings.

I liked Jhonny Mnemonic because it is what (I at least) like to call "Classic 90s Cyberpunk" or "90s Sci-Fi" therefore I enjoyed (coming as I come from Matrix and Alien when I was a kid [Not saying Alien is cyb, just as a reference]).

But I think I will probably end up getting Jhonny's book for completing the prologue, although anon said it was not a must have.

I just checked and found this interesting update:
>Towards a High-Resolution, Implantable Neural Interface
https://www.darpa.mil/news-events/2017-07-10
>DARPA has awarded contracts to five research organizations and one company that will support the Neural Engineering System Design (NESD) program: Brown University; Columbia University; Fondation Voir et Entendre (The Seeing and Hearing Foundation); John B. Pierce Laboratory; Paradromics, Inc.; and the University of California, Berkeley. These organizations have formed teams to develop the fundamental research and component technologies required to pursue the NESD vision of a high-resolution neural interface and integrate them to create and demonstrate working systems able to support potential future therapies for sensory restoration. Four of the teams will focus on vision and two will focus on aspects of hearing and speech.

The Matrix is definitely getting closer. Future pilots and tank crew can be directly connected to their machines.

OK, let's pump up with some news. BBC is a good source. And here are a few tidbits relating to discussions earlier.

=== /cyb/ and /sec/ News

>It is easy to expose users' secret web habits, say researchers
http://www.bbc.com/news/technology-40770393
>wo German researchers say they have exposed the porn-browsing habits of a judge, a cyber-crime investigation and the drug preferences of a politician.
>The pair obtained huge amounts of information about the browsing habits of three million German citizens from companies that gather "clickstreams".

OK, so privacy = gone.


>Deception tech helps to thwart hackers' attacks
http://www.bbc.com/news/technology-40751656
>The same principles of deception and misdirection, albeit on a much smaller scale, are now starting to be used by some organisations to thwart malicious hackers keen to establish a bridgehead on internal networks.

This is about honey pots but adds some more interesting bits

yeah I know, they are mostly to pass around BTC in a physical form, no actual BTC transaction if I understood correctly.

>>61666323
yeah that's what they're for. still impractical to use for transactions as you have to break them to get the key.

Also, you have to transfer the btc to the wallet anyways so there's still a transaction :(

yeah as soon as I replied you I started wondering that you only save up on one transaction fee, you still have to put the BTC there and you still have to pay to pull it out.

give it to me straight, lads: assuming you don't fuck up and send out identifying info yourself, is TOR secure?

>>61668016
TOR has known vulnerabilities (timing attacks), but they require a lot of resources and coordination to pull off.
Unless some new zero day is used on you or you are high level target: Yes.

>>61668016
Every bust so far has either been some form of browser exploit, or shitty opsec. So step one, don't have shitty opsec. (this is hard) Step two, you need to defend your browser and system from zero-days. Ignore the devs' whining about usability and disable javascript. Patch your shit, you have zero excuse to have poor patch discipline. Use something like Tails that does things outside the browser to guard against deanonymization. (Tails sets up iptables rules to block traffic that isn't going through the Tor proxy, IIRC) Don't trust any files you download, I believe there was one bust that happened because someone downloaded an Excel file with a macro virus in it and ran the thing, and it immediately reported his clearnet IP.

You can hide from three-letter agencies on the internet, but it requires you to be perfect. You have to bat 1.000, zero slip ups.

>>61668148
Is Tails better than Qubes and Whonix?

>>61668016
Yes, but use a vpn inside the tor tunnel either on a box you control which is not tied directly to you or paid for anonymously.

>>61668196
Different, yes, but I'm not sure you can definitively say which is better.

>>61668196
Qubes is better from segregating your shit. I'm assuming you have gnupg keys, emails, logins and other shit you'd not like to get frog blasted so at least it separates these things in a different VM so they can't leak to each other.


Tails is an ephemeral system, you're supposed to use it once and then reboot/delete all evidence. Qubes is a permanent install. Try SubgraphOS though not sure the status of that project post Grsecurity going private patches

>>61668148
Everybody slips up though, that's why the only people still around in the game took careful precautions to either live in a country that it won't matter if they are discovered, or they carefully chose their market to avoid the US, and are equally careful cashing out their loot to avoid USD/US banks or payment processors like VISA/MC. This is harder than it sounds.

>>61668046
>>61668148
>>61668214

thanks for the responses, appreciate it

>>61668016
Remember, Tor is NOT a vpn.

This is a direct quote from Ciscos own training material. If you want security, bundle it with an IPSec connection to and from your vpn.

>>61668196
>Is Tails better than Qubes and Whonix?

There are fewer secrets in the use of radio bands than most people think. After all everyone have to make adaptions to fit in with their neighbours in terms of adjacent bands as well as harmonics and sub harmonics. So NATO countries cooperate to be compatible, and USA, Europe, Russia and China cooperate to protect navigational signal bands for GPS, Galileo, Glonass and Beidou respectively from interference. And the funny thing is that all these signals are very close to each other.

A lot of military bands are non-com (not for communications), such as navigation, positioning, timing, flight paths, radars etc. And that is hard to hide.

In any case, for practical use for hams and other amateurs you just need to know what bands to stay away from, what bands can cause you interference (like now the Iranian radar system), and what the bands is for. Even for an amateur band the band is sub divided into CW, digimode, SSTV, voice and more.

How much of that is real and how much of that is merely positioning to push salary levels down? Companies will go far, too far, to get salaries down. My former employer dumped everyone with 4+ years degrees and kept those with shorter degrees to "save" money.

That's exactly the point of the post-con system. Remember that prisoners are profitable. A private company gets paid to feed them, clothe them, build prisons, and often even run the prison. So, they have every incentive to get incarceration rates up as high as possible.

I have seen that a few times.

Sorry I should had been more specific.

Some anon posted a few Defcon chats in the previous thread, check the "Old Thread" link in OP.

Just for the record, fellow anons. Now is 0940 in Europe, so don't fear posting, we're awake.

It's currently 0040 Pacific Time in Burgerland; the only places still awake would be Alaska and Hawaii.

I am curious though, how popular is cyberpunk in Europe? Do you feel like it actively describes the political climate over there or are you passively interested because >cyberpunk?

>>61688456
It is ~1700 in Aus, closer to 1730 where I'm at

>>61688456
Then I guess the 4chan server are in the opposite coast, since it says 0350 in posts.

About your question, I think it is a very good question. Clearly as Islam related incidents happens, the climate around encryption, privacy and anonymousity (sorry if word is wrong) is growing tense. Although there has been a month or two without incident, GB is going away from net privacy and stuff, for instance.

As stream, I don't think /cyb/ is what you would say pretty popular, although I tend more to go into online stuff that irl, so I couldn't say with proofs.

I was referring to the US, but yeah, I'd kinda forgotten about you Aussies.

You close to Adelaide?

>>61688456
Europe today can be pretty dystopic. Media is too influential, politicians often weak, uninformed and planning only personal success and the financial system is in a meltdown.

Political climate has quite a few similarities with the 1980's and the world of Neuromancer, but not in a good way.

I think we are dystopian in every non tangible aspect of /cyb/. Obviously that doesn't include visuals.
