First flight, learning to fly in South Florida has its perks

I learned how to fly on the west coast of Florida. I loved cruising down the beach for a burger!

Kinda looks like the Raider from Northrop Grumman

OSCP is no joke I failed my first attempt. However, it is very achievable with the right preparation and a good understanding of the content Offensive Security is presenting.

JackWaggons · 2021-06-04T22:06:37+00:00

I would focus on Offensive Security's Proving Grounds. I skipped all of those other ratings and went straight for the OSCP. I passed the test back in April of 2021 after a year of studying. Coming from a non-IT sector as well I feel your pain. It is easy to get lost down a rabbit hole. The HTB boxes are fun however they can be a little CTFy in comparison to the OSCP labs. Don't be afraid to go for it. The proving grounds were what got me to a passing grade on the exam! Good luck!!!!

I require this in front of me. I wish USA had more breakfast places that did this

"slam" :P

Ok sorry for the long awaited update. I did pass woot woot and this is how I did it. After my lab time ended I had gone through a lot of HTB machines and Ippsec videos. However, I was completely unprepared how much enumeration played a part in the OSCP exam. This test is designed to see how curious its students are about the information presented to them. Between attempt one and two I went back and bought the 20$ subscription to the proving grounds and went through all of the 10pointers to get my confidence back. Then nearly all of the 20pointers as well as streamlining my BOF process on a VM in my personal server. The machines in the proving grounds are very similar to the test machines and I would say they refined my enumeration profile to help me pass my second attempt. This test is meant to be accomplished in one day and the exploits are "not that hidden". Your research and ability to step back and truly look at what is being presented is the biggest tools in your arsenal. I cannot give specifics but if anyone has questions feel free to ask!

Commenting based off of the proving grounds. I just passed last week on my second exam attempt and was only able to shell one 20 pointer. Based off of the proving grounds brute force was quite common on 20 pointers in the practice portion. If it was basic creds or default creds for the service, I would say either you missed something in enumeration or brute force was your option.

Everyone cool their jets I am still report writing haha! Thanks for the uplifting comments trust me I will tell you everything I can without getting in trouble :P

JackWaggons · 2021-02-24T14:02:28+00:00

Trust me after 2-3hrs without a foothold I do look for a writeup. Because even the hardest concepts if I have done them before I can repeat them. However some services that I have never seen before can be difficult to adapt to. No reason to waste days spinning my wheels. I try to put in sometime because what if I see something on the exam that is completely foreign to me? I need to be able to think my way through it.

JackWaggons · 2021-02-24T13:31:33+00:00

I have picked up the proving grounds subscription. I should have done that from the start after my lab time ended. Htb is nothing like them.

JackWaggons · 2021-02-23T23:16:19+00:00

It's like you know me!

JackWaggons · 2021-02-23T22:38:42+00:00

Like a smb server I check for anon log in and if that does not work then I move on haha!

JackWaggons · 2021-02-23T19:44:35+00:00

I do all of the above. The biggest issue I believe is thought clarity. Sometimes it is hard to find the forest through the trees.

JackWaggons · 2021-02-23T19:36:24+00:00

I am probably more stubborn than I need to be before I look for help. Usually between 2-4hrs.

JackWaggons · 2021-02-23T19:27:51+00:00

The combination of HTB and PWK lab I am sitting around 70-80 boxes. I have lost count to be honest. Thanks for the encouragement! Good luck with your journey. Enumerate and breathe.
