Programmers are people too…

May 6th, 2010

I was doing some packet analysis today and saw the following in an HTTP header from Facebook:

HTTP/1.0 200 OK
Server: MochiWeb/1.0 (I'm not even supposed to be here today.)

Nothing new, or ground breaking here, but gave me short lol in the midst of the daily static.

How Strong is Your Fu?

April 26th, 2010

Offensive Security will be hosting a Hacking Tournament May 8-9th.  Details can be found here.  For those who don’t already know, Offensive Security provides top-notch, hand-on, IT security training.  Last fall I took their Pentesting with BackTrack course and obtained my Offensive Security Certified Professional status.  Oh, and don’t forget that Offensive Security also happens to be the same people that bring us BackTrack.  BackTrack is one of the most well known and complete PenTesting Linux distro available on the market today.  And if you didn’t already know that, why are you even here?

At any rate, the tournament is coming up in a couple weeks, so register if you think your Fu is strong enough.  Free training is the prize, and it is well worth it.  The training I took last year consisted of some text and video that walked you through all aspects of a successful pentest using BackTrack… hence the title “Pentesting with BackTrack.”  Along with the course materials, I had 2 months access to the Offensive Security Lab which consisted of several targets to practice my newly acquired knowledge on.  I was even provided a lab machine to do some exploit development on.  Yes, you will learn the basics of fuzzing and writing your own exploits.

The final exam was to conduct a pentest.  You have 24 hours to successfully penetrate a new target network.  The lab and the exam were both great and my only regret is that I would love to have more time to hack at both networks.

I’m confident the Tournament will be a quality event that will be well worth the time of anyone who decides to sign up.
