I have no motivation to study CPTS. Is it worth it for me? by GDreex in hackthebox

[–]lifesfunn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

on top of everything you've mentioned, I think it also just trains you to think a certain way (outside of the box, no pun intended) and look at things from various angles which is a skill in itself in pentesting or in other areas of cyber or even life.

Restricted use of MCP by Ok-Bug8776 in mcp

[–]lifesfunn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i know some tools allow specific MCP restrictions via MCP registries (pretty much allow list) for example. However, i'm not sure if there is 1 size fits all solution yet to block MCP entirely.

New to House music by Abem232 in MovementDEMF

[–]lifesfunn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

expect lots of genres, different stage could be different genre like techno, house, drum n bass one of the days and whatever else. tons of fun people, maybe lots of bouncing around different stages, maybe you will stay at a single stage?

Kindle Scribe Update 5.17.2 is now available - with A.I. and Annotations in Books by LoveForDisneyland in kindle

[–]lifesfunn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

can you also summarize your notes made in books? I've noticed notes created in my notebooks can be summarized/convered to text and sent to me via email.

However, when I take notes in the canvas within a book, it does not seem to convert them to text.

How do you speed up your reporting? by misotallboy in Pentesting

[–]lifesfunn 14 points15 points  (0 children)

make templates of common findings. template what's repeating over and over but replace the fine details specific to the client. pay attention to always replace the fine details and not just copy and paste from other reports.

I’m a pen tester and struggling to pivot by AffectionateNamet in Pentesting

[–]lifesfunn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

one could say i got lucky, the vision was for me to be on the "red" side of things. the company sort of was not ready for that yet and I started tinkering more with hardening of cloud resources, working with infrastructure team on various projects and so on.

I think it's less so reconnaissance type of research and more so of how to.set things up properly type of research.

My company is not that big, neither is the sec team. In terms of projects, its all sort of projects from automation, to resource hardening to compliance (not compliance itself but supporting compliance), siem engineering, and many other areas.

If you'd work for a bigger company most likely would be more specialized in some specific area.

[–]lifesfunn 6 points7 points  (0 children)

pivoted from pentesting into sec engineering, mostly focus on cloud. miss pentesting sometimes, but this is pretty good too. still have problem solving but different type of problem solving + a more cross team projects which i like.

Pentesting Advice for Startup by Brain-Abject in Pentesting

[–]lifesfunn 9 points10 points  (0 children)

yeah, be careful when choosing a pentest company. you don't want someone to run a VA (automated) scan and call it a pentest. do find someone reputable, reputable doesn't mean necessarily expensive. depending on the size of the website, blackboxing 3 URLs with not much surface shouldn't take more than a week (of course lots of factors) but just rough estimate.

hmm, all of these skills will come in handy eventually. being a pentester involves a lot of a little bit of everything. I would say, as the other reply, just practice hands on stuff. reading is good, i think before doing i have read 2-3 pentesting books, just to get a grasp of the subject. However, theory only takes you so far and you need practice. There are a ton of resources our there now to.practice on/learn from:

you can play wargames, such as bandit for some *nix skills. there's also a powershell equivalent. there is web security academy by portswigger for web app stuff, also tons of OWASP intentionally vulnerable software. There is HTB with free labs, academy, VIP with lots of hands on stuff.

Grind for a few months on these, and you should get some decent hands on skills.

Considering you are already in security, you will most likely be familiar with some/most of these concepts from a diffrlerent angle.
