: Day 26 : Today's advent of cyber challenge is sorted. Poked at the new release. I'm not grokking, but now the interruptions are minimized. So maybe some focus will get me there.

: Day 25 : Today's advent of cyber challenge is sorted. Worked through the next section of Responsible Red Teaming. Tinkered with my zsh prompt. Need to try out sysmon for linux and the logging recommendations in my lab.

: Day 24 : Today was a grab bag. Pulled off today's advent of cyber challenge. It was not what I was expecting, but I expect the difficulty to ramp up as we go. Tuned into @Alh4zr3d@twitter's twitch stream. Target looked familiar.

: Day 23 : Read more on Responsible Red Teaming. Two more sections down. Legality, ethics, responsiblity, and opsec. Good stuff to keep in mind.

: Day 22 : Took a break from awkward. Poked around at Vortimo OSINT Tool (osint-tool.com/) and related integrations. Anyone w/search.censys.io accounts getting 500s after logging in? That's weird. Also played around with hashcat some more and tinkered with using masks. Next I want to play with combined masks and wordlists to see what that gets me.

: Day 21 : More again. Still chipping away at awkward. I'm likely running around in a rabbit hole. Better here than on a job, I reckon. Time to look through the forums.

: Day 20 : More . Worked on awkward and got user. Still working out root. Also worked on carpediem, but didn't get any further than last time. Then went down a password cracking rabbit hole. Trying out JtR and incremental filters.

I don't follow enough international football. I had no idea was pretty good. Based on the previous US and CAN game before the , I reckoned would have won today. Canada looked bad.

Yes, this is The Onion’s brief to SCOTUS about parody. Yes, you should read it. And not just because Ricky Gervais liked my tweet on the bird site today. 😁

: Day 19 : release day. Worked on Precious an "easy" linux box. Pretty straightforward.

@InfoSec_Valkyrie Is that whisky only good with a cola? Sounds interesting.

@ghostrodeo I've been smoking my turkey(s), but I really want to try this. A friend has a fryer he's offered to lend me. Maybe next spring.

: Day 17 : Where I was going to go with the crypto challenge is not the path I took. @[email protected] gave me some advice and I managed to sort it out. Compared to other crypto challenges I've worked on, I'm happy to have gotten to a solution. I've not seen one like this before.

: Day 16 : Still banging at the crypto challenge. I've gotten a big push, by the implementation is still escaping me. I've focusing on the decimal values of the ASCII char set. Maybe tomorrow I try with hex values and see if that leads to a breakthrough.

: Day 15 : Looks like matactf.com's Thanksgiving CTF is only the five challenges. I'm hit and miss with crypto. I've managed to work out part of the plaintext. Gonna keep noodling on it.

: Day 14 : Took a crack at metactf.com's Thanksgiving CTF. It's multiple days. Today there are six challenges. I've gotten 5.

@__p__e__t__e__ I saw the announcement for Responsible Red Teaming in Discord (taggartinstitute.org/p/respons). Signing up for that!
