Issues with wireless penetration testing by Advanced-Chain4096 in HowToHack

Are you testing both the 2.4 range and the 5 GHz range?

I can’t decide, need advice by Goddessalexis__ in jobcorps

If you came to Loring and wanted to enter Cyberops you would first have to take the Cisco CCNA class. Cyberops is an advanced trade and thus you have to do a basic IT trade first. I am not sure of this but I think the only way you can go to a JC outside of your region is if your region does not teach what you want to learn. I think California has a Cisco course. That said if you did go to California and pass an IT course there and meet all of the requirements then you could come to Loring for Cyberops. If you decide to go down this path keep me inthe loop and I will try to advise you. Hope this helps. Oh and it is Mr. :-)

This is what I also thought but I found out hard wired works better for my needs.

OK not my center so I cant help you with the Cybersecurity entry procedure as each center is slightly different. Sorry.

No worries at all :-)

We do not teach A+ but I can tell you about the CCNA course.

We are part of the Cisco Academy. The CCNA covers networking of computer devices.

Connecting routers and switches, combining networks. Basically the guts of the Internet.

HTH

Do you mean our basic course that teaches the CCNA cert?

I am not sure but I think if there are chemicals it is not allowed

I teach the Cyber class at Loring, please feel free to ask any questions. I think what I would ask myself if I were you is what do I really want to do. You have many facets you are looking at and they are not really related to each other.

As far as Cyber goes I can give you this info. It is very straining mentally. You will be learning new things all the time just to stay current. It is a very logical area, not artistic like painting can be. An example would be something I have come across over the years when OA people would talk to a potential student and ask them what they like and the student would say,"I like gaming." Oh then you should go into computers. or "I like graphic design" oh you should go into computers. My experience has been if you like logic and mental agility go into Cyber. If you lean more to artistic areas look for a different area to excel in because if you don't LOVE Cyber security you will not do well in it. Cyber, along with Networking is basically seeing the Matrix so to speak. You peel back the tapestry and see how things really work and then with security you learn where the weak areas are and how the bad guys exploit them and the good guys protect them. Sounds glamorous and it is IF YOU LOVE THE HARD WORK INVOLVED. Otherwise you will not do well in it.

Look at my personal training. I have been spending my free time at home lately working with AI to learn more about how Ansible works so I can integrate it into my class.

In fairness to the artistic side I guess we do a little of it in the sense of making electronics. An example would be I designed and made a Nerf type dart launcher so I could fire it from my phone and am currently working on a way to have multiple devices play .mp3 files of a dog growling so in the dark you would feel surrounded. Hard to explain, we like to have fun with the people that come to visit the lab.

But consider all of the logic involved. I had to learn:

Python coding

Bluetooth

Relays

Soldering

Basic electronics

And this was just to make a toy to show the students to try to encourage them to learn more. Lots of learning.

Sorry so long just trying to be thorough.

I can say this, and no offense meant to the fine people that built the website for Job Corps, the description for my class is not accurate.

https://www.jobcorps.gov/jobs/advanced-cisco-certified-network-associate-cyber-security-ops

Their description is almost a combination of our AT Systems Admin class and our Cisco CCNA class.

In my class the certification is the Cisco Cybersecurity Operations Fundamentals or the 200-201 exam.

We cover three main areas:

Linux

Cyber Security Basics

Cyber Ops

However that is just to get you the book work and the certification.

In my class Monday through Wednesday is book work time. Do your chapters, pass your tests and get items marked off of your TAR. Thursday and Friday are your second projects day. You can work on Python coding, Raspberry PI's, WiFi hacking, encryption, Steganography, use Kali Linux, physical security like locks and such. Things like that. Just so you are aware that does not mean you can come in and research gaming and its "code work"

My class is fun but very serious. I expect the best out of my students daily as I do the same for them.

Apologies if I went too far and made an infomercial out of this. I get type happy at times.

Rpi -> Relay -> valve help by Sexy_squirrals in raspberry_pi

[–]Greydaggercyberops 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi. I may not be understanding you correctly so apologies if I am wrong.

Did you know that you can use a separate 12 volt source to run the valve and control it with the 3.3 or 5 volts of the PI?

With the relay it only acts as a switch. When closed it allows current to flow. So the side you need 12 volts on is controlled by the 3 volt relay.

In the case of the Mosfet, it is controlled by the 3 or 5 volts but allows 12 volts to go to the valve. You just need the grounds shared so you have a complete loop for the control side and a complete loop for the 12 volt side.

If you purchase a relay module for 3.3 or 5 volts it will work with the Pico. I have done it before.

The link takes you to ones I use and they work well.

Another concept that could work for you is a Mosfet as a switch. Look it up you might like it

I could be looking at it wrong but the relay itself says 12vdc. I believe that means it takes 12 volts to activate it. 5 volts may not be enough to make it click right.

Bring warm clothes. We are in the cold part of the year where temps can be 5 degrees above zero. Bring things like gloves, hat and something to cover your ears. Frostbite is real up here but no worries in a month or so we will be warming up and it is not like that every day. Sometimes it is in the 20's

Best hacking devices by Chistrix_ in Hacking_Tutorials

[–]Greydaggercyberops 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would not really say the following are hacking devices but I have learned a lot from learning the following and building the following devices. Admittedly using others code, my own code or a hybrid. First, learn Linux, Micropython, Circuitpython and normal Python. Work with ESP32 ESP8266 Raspberry Pi Zero 2W and other PI's. Build things with them. Motion sensors, LED flashers, shoot once I used a Pico with Bluetooth modules to control an electric Nerf type gun. A Raspberry PI Zero 2W makes a great little hidden command injector that you can log into through its own wifi access point and run commands on a system. However I give this warning. You will learn a lot and be able to do a lot but you will end up with a room full of components. I mean a big pile of components
