Introduction Cybersecurity is a growing field in high demand; however, many estimates predict a shortage of approximately 3.5 million qualified cybersecurity candidates by 2021. This shortage is leaving many companies vulnerable to data breaches, ransomware, and other cyber-attacks. To address this shortage, the SANS Institute offers a program to help fill the impending cybersecurity skills
Hey guys! I figured that it would be beneficial to have an entire post dedicated to teaching some fundamentals about Computer Organization and the x86 Instruction Set Architecture, since I will be referencing this particular ISA (instruction set architecture) throughout most of my tutorials on Exploit Development and Reverse Engineering. This will be updated over
Part 3 of creating my Wargame to teach people exploit development and reverse engineering.
Introduction For years, Offensive Security (OffSec) certifications have been held as one of the gold standards in the ethical hacking/penetration testing community. Their certification exams have been praised for their difficulty and their “real-world” feel as testers are required to hack to gain their certification instead of the traditional multiple choice test. Having an OffSec
Video Walkthrough: Introduction: This week’s retiring machine is Bounty, which is a beginner-friendly box that can still teach a few new tricks. Bounty is rated 4.8/10, which I feel is pretty appropriate given the overall ease of the machine. In this walkthrough, we’ll do a little bit of dirbusting, learn a nifty trick to gain
Since making the switch from an Army Transportation Officer to a Supply Chain Management in the private sector and now working in Information/Cyber Security, I’ve done a lot of learning. Often, I am asked how I did it. Typically, I respond with the most hated two words in any language on the planet earth: hard
Video Walkthrough: Introduction: This week’s retiring machine is TartarSauce, which is full of rabbit holes deep enough to get stuck in. With a rating of 6.2/10, it’s not the most difficult of machines out there, but it definitely felt a little more complex to me than a 30 point box. Either way, we get to
A basic reverse engineering challenge for a CTF and a mini intro to RE.
For the last week, VetSec competed in the Hacktober.org CTF event, which consisted of challenges in forensics, steganography, programming, offensive tactics, web application, reverse engineering, cryptography, and more. I am happy to announce that WE WON! Our team consisted of the following members: Elliot Chernofsky (@emtuls) Reuben Booker (@reubadoob) Rob Fuller (@mubix) Myself (@hmaverickadams) The
