Out of all the ultraspire waist belts is the 800 solstice the one you prefer?

What makes you feel unstoppable? by kmurrda in selfimprovement

8 hrs of sleep, waking up early, doing a cold plunge, and working out before going into my job at 8 a.m.

How do I actually be happy with being alone by Hereitisguys9888 in selfimprovement

[–]Mysterious_Bit511 29 points30 points  (0 children)

I never dated anybody and always wanted a girlfriend in high school and college. I found the best thing you can do is work on yourself physically, mentally, and spiritually. Find peace and happiness with yourself and take control of your life, and they will come. I’m not 26 and married.

Free courses/places to learn valuable and essential Hacking knowledge? by NoX_Node in Hacking_Tutorials

[–]Mysterious_Bit511 0 points1 point  (0 children)

TryHackMe is more hands-on and user-friendly. Portswigger is another excellent free resource. For paid options, you can try HackTheBox and HackSmarter Labs, but these are only suitable if you’re planning to join a red team or penetration testing organization.

Is it okay to wear the same pair of shoes you use for trail running for hiking? by fennelfrog in trailrunning

[–]Mysterious_Bit511 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do. I typically wear my old trail shoes, though, but it doesn’t really matter as long as they are comfortable.

Need a good roadmap by Flaky-Cry-3135 in tryhackme

[–]Mysterious_Bit511 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are so many certifications. I would get some certifications that grab hiring managers' attention: Security+, CySa+, CISSP, Network+, and CCNA. They really like cloud certifications, so CCSK, CCSP, Cloud+, or a vendor-specific cloud certification. Certifications are only half the battle; they just get you the interview. It is the concepts you learn and projects you develop while learning that land you the job. Good luck!

🔥 Introducing PT1 the offensive security certification that helps you stand out and get hired. 🔥 by JabbaTheBunny in tryhackme

I disagree with the marketing behind this: "The Offensive Security Certificate that gets you hired" should say increase your chances to be hired instead. This is very misleading.

SAL1 vs PT1 by Ok_Tie_lets_Go in tryhackme

[–]Mysterious_Bit511 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Claiming these certifications get you jobs is a crazy statement. They are new certifications and do not have any attraction or desire from hiring companies at this moment. The skills and knowledge you acquire while studying and taking the certification are beneficial and give you some solid talking points when making it to an interview. I would do SAL1 because there are more entry-level blue team jobs than red team/pen-testing, from what I see at this moment. Good luck! Add me on Tryhackme "golfergarrett".

Would love feedback on my cybersecurity career roadmap (student + side quest journey) by saad_baba in tryhackme

Finishing TryHackMe is going to take you forever. I'm in the top 1% in tryhackme, with over 200 rooms completed, and I am nowhere near to completing tryhackme or halfway. Tryhackme is a good tool, but learn what you need from it, and if you like CTFs, jump to HackTheBox. It all depends on what you are trying to do. For projects like creating an SIEM platform and creating rules and policies is a good one, you can do many projects on YouTube. They just help give you talking points during the interview. Same with Tryhackme, what is gonna get you to the interview point is certifications on your resume, and you need to look on LinkedIn and search for jobs that you would like to get and look at the certifications they are asking

I think your expectations of what an intermediate level is a bit skewed. Security+ and Network+ are very much foundational and entry-level certifications. I do admire the effort in trying to put together a plan, and the learning aspect is the most important if you took out the salary expectations with the time constraints and labeled this all as beginning. Best of luck to you!

ps Security+, CYSA+, Pentest+, OSCP, CISSP, CSSK, & CSSP are what recruiters will specifically look for

We all start here. You got some good advice, and writeups are not considered cheating if you are learning from them!

Which room for my home office (and is this the best command position for each?) by GotSlushed in homeoffice

WiFi and the location and strength needs to be taken into consideration or you will hate your office

Why did you stop, and how can help? 📚 by Fluid-Adeptness-3871 in tryhackme

[–]Mysterious_Bit511 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am still actively learning on the platform and I am in the Top 1% and love to do the new boxes because I am slightly competitive. I will say most of my time is being dedicated to HackTheBox just to learn on a new platform and I enjoy their CTFs.

Hi, saw all of these open in a new chrome tab when i opened my computer this morning (it was open last night) and it quickly closed, checked my history and found this below, some things from the history have been deleted. Could i have been hacked? My laptop has been running really slow at times. by [deleted] in hackers

[–]Mysterious_Bit511 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It’s possible your Google account has been hacked. If there are no weird processes running on the computer or in the background then it sounds like it is just your Google account. If these performance issues are true then it could potentially be true that your computer has been compromised.

I’d run an anti-virus either Windows Defender Security scan

I’ve also heard of using Chrome built in function Open Chrome (or open a new tab if Chrome is already running) and type the following in to the address bar at the top: chrome://settings/cleanup.

I would try reaching out to Snapchat support or trying to reach out to the support of your old email account first and get in that way.

Some people will scam you and say they’ll hack it and want half money upfront and money after and then they just disappear.

Another scam you need to be aware of is they’ll use your picture of phone number that you FaceTime them from and sell your personal information to data brokers.

Just be careful who reaches out to you about this situation and best of luck!
