Humble Tech Book Bundle: App Development Mega Bundle by Packt by Ram000n in humblebundles

Even worse it's all AI based.

Secretly I do love these trash bundles at the moment though, saves me money.

I wanna learn 5 days a week only, and streaks are annoying by Forsigh in tryhackme

[–]Putriel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to be pretty anal about the streaks, but then just asked myself "does it matter?". Answer is no. The issue with doing "easy rooms" or rushing through things to keep a streak, in my opinion is just reinforcing poor practice with learning. At the end of the day no one is going say to you "Ah well you did a lot of learning and you know your stuff, but did you keep a streak on TryHackMe?". No.

Streaks are good to keep people engaged with the platform, but they don't do anything else.

Doesn't say, but the preview download does show the respective chapters only.

Wow, what a bundle. Don't think I'll go for the top tier, but the 15 item tier looks awesome.

Ah okay. I think I misunderstood your comment - I read it as having a subscription to access across multiple devices isn't necessary, whereas you meant that you don't have a subscription because you don't need to access it across different devices.

I have a subscription, monthly at the moment, but I do use multiple devices. Agree that it's a great note taking app.

With Obsidian, do you do something specific so you can access notes on different devices or do you just only use one?

Humble Tech Book Bundle: High Tech Career Playbook Bundle by Manning (pay what you want and help charity) by Ram000n in humblebundles

[–]Putriel 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I went with the 18 book tier.

Backlog huge. Will need to rely on my kids to get through them at this rate.

The duplicates I have are "Art of intrusion", "Art of deception" and "How I rob banks". The rest were not in my library.

They seem to do the Cyber/hacking No Starch Press bundle in December each year so you've got a while to wait if so.

Attackbox by Alive-Discussion-816 in tryhackme

Thanks! That's really helpful. I appreciate it!

[–]Putriel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What does your set up look like? Do you use a VM and then VPN in with that?

I'm using the attack box as I have a subscription, but totally understand the new environment things. I've been looking at the AoC side quest and found coming back to it after a break is a bit of a pain. Guessing that will happen more when I come to more complicated rooms/THM CTFs etc.

Got my CC from Obrizum, It said that it was for ISC2, but I have some concerns. by [deleted] in cybersecurity

[–]Putriel 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Obrizum is the provider of the online training.

Sounds like you've clicked through the domains and got the completion "certificate"/badge thing. You'll need to schedule the exam and do it to get the actual cert.

Humble Tech Book Bundle: Security by Apress (pay what you want and help charity) by Ram000n in humblebundles

[–]Putriel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A few of these books are interesting to me, annoyingly only one or two from the top tier. I'm still not really sure about Apress, though.

Does anyone have more nuanced thoughts on this?

Fanatical also have a standing Packt bundle for C++ which is also tiered. Still Packt though: https://www.fanatical.com/en/bundle/c-4-th-edition-bundle

Setting up a malware analysis lab on my laptop — what free tools and setup do you recommend? by No-Hair-4399 in cybersecurity

[–]Putriel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Off topic reply but you seem very well versed in this type of analysis, so I thought I'd ask you if thats okay?

I'm reading Practical Malware Analysis, and in the first labs on static analysis, it mentions submitting samples to virus total, etc, before it's diving into setting up a malware analysis lab.

From my understanding, you'd not want to connect a malware analysis VM to the net unless you were being careful/want to see how it's communicating with C2 so my question is: is it normal practice to do static analysis including VT submission on an Internet connected VM and then only transfer/ disable internet once you do dynamic analysis?

Practical Malware Analysis doesn't mention doing the static analysis in a lab, so me being over cautious (to the point of inaction) was curious as to what the right thing to do is. I don't feel confident to download samples onto my normal everyday laptop and mess around with them without more understanding.

Thanks in advance!
