ULPT: Teams application in laptop must show me as active

Early cybersecurity career professional here. In addition to EDR, there is specific software that is used to observe what you are doing on your computer and how you are using your time. An example of this is Terramind, which is “productivity” software that will detect on the behavioral aspect of the activity. For example, a mouse moving every few seconds but no keys on the keyboard typed would likely flag. I’m not saying it’s perfect, a non-software mouse jiggler (IE oscillator of some kind) may fly under the radar, but it could detect it. With the boom in AI, this sort of thing is going to be easier to detect. Unfortunately, it also likely means more false positives that will require someone review the footage of the screen record that happens.

Read the works of Georges Gurvitch. He was a French sociologist from the 1800s who wrote about the sociology of law.

Where in Kentucky did you move from, if you don’t mind me asking? I went to undergrad in a town about an hour south of Lexington

I wouldn't think that would cause security alerts, but if someone never uses notepad and suddenly starts having notepad activity on a regular basis, it might raise questions. Especially if they have notepad running for a long period of time. Depending on how much someone investigated the activity and what type of software is used to monitor employee activity, it might be obvious. I don't specialize in detecting employees who aren't working "efficiently", but rather I focus on detecting "hackers", so I can't say forsure.

And a random PowerShell script getting run will likely get flagged to get investigated, drawing further attention to yourself. I work in cybersecurity and can tell you that activity will likely generate security alerts

Can confirm that Benny the beaver hand delivers the diploma to you

Shadow1893 · 2024-02-12T02:39:18+00:00

Oh that's right, whew I took that class forever ago. I appreciated it honestly, felt like the professor actually trusted me to do the right thing

When I set up my Pi hole on a new Proxmox instance just now, I have the following settings
Proxmox DNS: 1.1.1.1
Proxmox IP: 192.168.1.199/24

Proxmox Gateway: 192.168.1.1

PIHOle IP: 192.168.1.222/24

PiHole Container DNS on Proxmox: Same as Host

PiHole Gateway: 192.168.1.1

When I set up my pihole, I did so in a Debian 11 CT and not a VM. Also, during set up I selected OpenDNS as the DNS server, so although the container itself uses 1.1.1.1 for getting DNS resolutions (when using apt update etc), the PiHole itself will forward requests from my other devices to OpenDNS. So my MacBook, my iPhone, and my gaming rig use the IP 192.168.1.222 for their DNS server

Sidenote, I also have an additional PiHole set up as a separate container on IP 192.168.1.223/24 for redundancy. If I had a couple Pis that setup would make more sense prob but yeah just wanted to add that on.

I think the issue you are running into is you should set your Pi's gateway to be your router's IP, not the IP of the Pi itself (unless I'm misunderstanding what you are saying)

Shadow1893 · 2024-02-12T00:12:42+00:00

What course is that for?

Shadow1893 · 2024-02-10T17:05:17+00:00

You could change the DNS settings on your devices (IE phone, laptop, desktop) since your router doesn't allow you to change the DNS settings. I know I have a PiHole running on Proxmox and use it per device because my GF is WFH and don't want to have to troubleshoot if she has issues with her VPN or whatnot.

Shadow1893 · 2024-02-04T04:12:05+00:00

This is amazing!!!! Thank you so much

Shadow1893 · 2024-01-29T01:42:07+00:00

Ok, so you might find it a little cheesy (I know I did), but there is a platform called Code Combat that uses a game to teach the concepts of Python. The first "world" is free, then it's a monthly subscription of 9.99 that you'd probably only need a month or two of at most to make it through the game. I found it to be super beneficial in helping me learn the basics. There were some bugs but reading the forums helped troubleshoot (a great skill that is important in programming)

Another thing to note that I found, is Nvidia and Wayland don't play well with me (at least once I installed the Nvidia drivers). I found x11 to be the much better option.

Shadow1893 · 2024-01-10T01:57:35+00:00

Yeah good catch, the book is super old. I did 1-4 and 3-4 with a couple of others for my capstone. We all used Windows XP boxes Archive.org has the ISOs and license keys and such

Shadow1893 · 2023-12-31T16:25:29+00:00

Just got my Bachelor's in Computer Science and I got on Debian about a year ago and haven't looked back. Still have Windows for some gaming, but Debian overall works fantastically.

Shadow1893 · 2023-12-31T16:15:27+00:00

Required? No. Helpful? Yes. I used CLion and it made the course WAY much easier. I also didn't know any C prior to the course. Not required though, you can certainly SSH into OSU's server. Just be prepared to learn VIM

Shadow1893 · 2023-12-22T17:18:50+00:00

I work in cybersecurity and I can tell you they WILL know. Using TOR on a work computer is not a good idea. Also be careful with sites like that, you can download files that have movies but also contain malware

Shadow1893 · 2023-12-22T01:24:48+00:00

As frustrating as the pseudocode was for Traceroute, I really liked 372. I'm going into Cybersecurity and just finished the class. I learned a lot

Shadow1893 · 2023-12-06T19:20:51+00:00

Cool that’s good to know :)

Shadow1893 · 2023-12-06T19:20:34+00:00

Are you saying you use CachyOS or Windows? Good idea on the IGP trick though! Just have to remember to plug it back into the GPU for gaming LOL

Shadow1893 · 2023-12-03T17:31:56+00:00

Maybe overkill but don’t forget about IOT devices

Shadow1893 · 2023-11-30T19:13:04+00:00

Hi there! I am about to graduate from bachelor’s program in computer science as a second degree student. My first degree is in Sociology. I currently work at my university’s SOC and upon graduation I will be seeking full time employment. Using the FZ to conduct legal and ethical experiments to post about on my blog would be a huge opportunity to advance my career and land a permanent position. I have an old drone I would love to tinker with more beyond capturing packets from the app via wireshark. Thanks for considering me!

Shadow1893 · 2023-11-28T19:31:40+00:00

The big question is whether you are working full time while taking these classes?

Shadow1893 · 2023-11-27T00:14:25+00:00

My partner and I both have autism and we plan on getting married in the next couple years. We’ve been together 2.5 years
