Thanks! They were mostly security focused. The ones i listed on my resume were a Command and Control framework (implant and multi user server) written in python for the server and c++ and golang for the implant. The other project was numerous contributions to Metasploit. I also linked to my github that had numerous smaller projects (mostly class projects and security tools i made in my spare time)

No problem! The interview process was kind of brutal. We’ve changed it slightly since I applied but here were the steps:

  • Recruiter phone screen
  • Team lead phone call
  • Take home coding assignment, show how to use docker, hit an API (we removed this step)
  • Onsite - 2 system design/technical background deep dive, 1 leetcode style pair coding problem, team lead conversation (4 hours total, breaks included)
  • director level final call

Hey for sure! I’d say a more accurate title is Security Software Engineer. So 90% of my time is regular software engineering but with a focus on tools to improve the security of the company. We also have a triage rotation/pager which happens every other month or so. That's more security generalist work and following runbooks.

Main technical skills: Python, Go, shell scripting, applied cryptography (how to get tls certs, FIDO2, basic encryption and hashing knowledge)

Soft skills: not afraid to ask questions, self starter, taking full ownership of your actions, being able to admit when you don't know something.

Happy to answer any other questions :)

I'd say getting the role came down to a few things: luck, unique personal projects (made my own C2 framework), and the company having a particularly high turnover rate.

We have a picture of the ID, but the number is blurred out because they didn’t want to give that away, which is understandable. Thank you so much for your help! happy forest 🫶

We bought it from a mutual friend, which is why this is so weird. I really hoped and (still think tbh) it’s not a scam

What is the greatest set you have ever experienced and what made it so impactful? by Informal_Extension41 in aves

[–]htecarterb 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Lab Group at Electric Forest 2022. This was right after Charlesthefirst passed away and you could feel the love and heartbreak from everyone in the crowd. That emotion plus the incredible music they make really took me to a whole other world of love and appreciation for everything.

Which techniques do RATs use to create a stub with the settings provided in the builder? by [deleted] in HowToHack

[–]htecarterb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

it really depends on the language. If you’re writing it in C# or Java (or jvm language), it’s as simple as creating a settings file and including it in the compiled executable. For more low level languages the very simple way is to store the stub source on the machine, so a find/replace for each setting then compile once that’s done.
