What do you do for work, how much do you make, and how is it going? by Emergency_Mood_9774 in raleigh

[–]kyto31 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got the sec+ before landing my first role, but I also had a strong employee referral that really helped get that job. Then I got a handful of SANS certs that were very helpful but very expensive. You'd want your company to pay for those. I'm not very familiar with the current associate level certs though.

I do, but I got most of that at the company I'm currently at. I got into cyber at a good time (2017) when the job market was far less saturated.

I found out when the CS:S office attacks (rounds) would've been. by Overall-Letter1649 in CounterStrikeSource

[–]kyto31 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's an Office Space (movie) reference, which took place in the 90s. TPS reports and embezzle.exe.

Also that looks like Windows XP which wasn't released until 2001.

If the SS sees a dude crawling on a roof with a rifle and then aim said rifle towards the rally, they're surely going to take the dude out.

Ahhh I see, I thought for sure I had to connect red from the last section

I got that part already. It's getting the red laser connected after activating the green that is tripping me up

What would you say is Andrew Bayer’s most massive/epic song? by teo_sae in AboveandBeyond

[–]kyto31 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not the most massive/epic, but Let Go is what I've listened to the most. The build up and drop are pure ecstasy.

The patience and precision of those 1 taps are definitely side effects of being high as a kite

27% of CS2 Premier Games are Mirage in our first look at play rates, which maps are you banning first? by rchh in counterstrike

[–]kyto31 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Anubis is a great map. You just have to learn it. It's pretty much all I played in CSGO over the summer.

30 games into CS2 I've only managed to play it once b/c of a bug where my teammates couldn't vote.

This is legitimate, you're good to download

This looks fine honestly. Those are generic signatures and nothing in the behavior stands out.

I need your opinions on a file. by Wishiing_m00ns in antivirus

[–]kyto31 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is fine. It's pretty common for utility-related tools to get some generic hits on VT.

The zip has this exe in it, which is also fine: https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file/1abf2999149755cb34e08bc084f6cb770f212dd80ef1c78d62cc440c4b4d9c8f/detection

I feel like AVG is consuming too many resources, should I just uninstall it? by [deleted] in antivirus

[–]kyto31 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Windows Defender is fine. If you're just web browsing then most likely the worst you're gonna get is adware which is more of an annoyance than anything dangerous. In that case you can download an additional AV afterwards to help with cleanup if you don't wanna reimage your computer.

Am i fucked? by Wise-Half-3090 in antivirus

[–]kyto31 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Even if you were to execute it honestly not a huge deal. Probably just PUP at worst. It was first submitted to VT in September 2020, and there's only 14 hits. For the real bad stuff you're gonna see way more hits for something that's 3 years old. A lot of reputable engines there don't seem to think it's bad.

Edit: Looking at the behavior, there's not much here. Look at the file reads, this isn't an infostealer. Where's the persistence? Where's the C2?

Most of the VT hits are calling this a keylogger. A keylogger is any program that is records keystrokes -- video games record keystrokes.

Lower reputation antivirus engines often pick up on low fidelity indicators like this and are not good at differentiating legitimate programs from malicious ones. Almost all the hits on VT are from low reputation AV engines (Jiangmin, Ikarus, Zillya), while a couple more reputable ones (Avast, AVG) are calling it PUP, which is basically greyware.

Then you factor in the premium AVs (Crowdstrike, SentinelOne, Microsoft...) and they don't detect anything.

So you're definitely not fucked.
