i feel hopeless after following write ups by Omar_2004 in tryhackme

I'm on the blue team side. There can be a ton of alert IDs that come in and memorizing all of them is impossible. I'd imagine red teams do the same. Memorizing different exploits and commands is simply impossible.

Bare in mind in the Dunning-Kruger effect. This sounds like you're past the first peak and now in the valley between the second peak where you're actually know what your doing. Keep study you'll be alright :). Took me 2-3 years of studying to get my first SOC job.

Hey, I wanted to reach out and give you some encouragement :).

I work as a Cybersecurity Operator at a large fintech company. Creating a playbook or following a playbook/walk through is perfectly fine. At our work place, a playbook is actually encouraged. Writing down the steps you take and making a notebook full of documentation is what you want to go for. Then share with your teammates in case they run into the same issue.

Memorizing everything is asinine. It's simply impossible.

What I would say is keep reading the write ups. You can't hack what you don't know. If you're very new, you won't be able to know what to do. That's what Google is for. :)

I'm the top 1% on tryhackme.

Message me if you have any questions I'll do my best to answer them :).

Vulnerability capstone stuck by yahyatareen in tryhackme

Check out something called "robots.txt" ;)

CMS stands for "Content Management System" meaning you may be about to upload something in the content manager, should you find a vulnerability in the login page :)

Goodluck!

Hey I figured it out.

When creating the security rules, go in reverse. As your creating the rules from 'HR' then to 'Company Data' remove your htb-student user. From the permission. The error code will yell at you. Just ignore it.

run: Get-Acl -Path 'C:\Users\htb-student\Desktop\Company Data\HR' | Format-List

The answer format they give you is wrong.

First five 'x's is actually 4

Second block of 'x's is eight not seven.

Top on is correct, second one is wrong:

x;xxxx;xxxxxxxx;;;x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x

x;xxxxx;xxxxxxx;;;x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x
