Recently had a similar issue with Via, the app for keyboards. Basically, there was an issue with chrome talking to the hardware…Except some lifesaver recommended plugging my keyboard directly into my machine, bypassing the docking station (the thing causing me issues) and fixing my problem. So I’ve technically still never had a driver issue, only a shitty docking station experience.
OpenVAS is a vulnerability scanner. Metasploit is a penetration testing framework.
First one does what OP wants. Second one less so, and is more hands on.
See dirbuster for automated dumb searching of web directories, gives you response codes to tell you if a page is accessible to the outside world. See nuclei which I haven’t used myself but seems to get good reviews for automated vuln scanning from the command line - has nice output and seems simple to use.
They’re both easy to use and install on something like Kali Linux.
I’ve got no experience with it but at first glance it seems like a very positive direction for the project:
Collaborate, not Compete
We are proud of our community and closely interact with projects around it. If we build a platform feature that can be useful in an upstream project, we prefer to contribute it to that project, rather than keep it in the platform.
You don’t hear that often enough these days, everyone seems to be siloing information.
Counter point, set the ‘swappiness’ lower than the default 60. I’ve set mine to 30 and the system boots a lot faster. You could research and consider 10-20.
100% agree, that is a “totally for fun” exercise
For added funs run an SSH tarpit to fuck with the attackers, something like endlessh.
Yeah like if it even partially functions as intended, it is not a brick. I once attempted flashing firmware to a motherboard, only for my power to go out midway through. Kaput, $200 down the drain, I no longer had an electronic device, I had the world’s most expensive paperweight.
I’m thinking data entry for threat hunters, and integrations with our other platforms apis but I couldn’t say anything specific. SSDs are a good shout, I might have tried setting it up with hdds if you hadn’t said.
Did you find it easier to add connectors in seperate docker containers or within the main octi container?
It feels like there’s a pretty high ceiling for this platform and the data you can generate. Do you find it easy to create good data? Do you have any habits?
I’m pretty keen to learn so feel free to answer what you can.
Really don’t care much about my cv. This program is a great way to learn about the STIX protocol so no idea what you mean about “no actionable skills”. STIX is an interesting information sharing method, the program is well designed to educate the user on it and seeing the format it imports and exports data will teach me a buttload.
More to the point, maybe could you be less cynical and share some advice. I’m not going to flex my qualifications cos they’re mediocre but I’ve got smart people around me who just don’t know this particular program and I’m interested to hear from those who do.
Do you run this program at work or at home? Have you learned anything interesting from using it? Are there avoidable mistakes I could not repeat from hosting it? Answers to those questions would be very useful.
I dont see myself doing too much configuration with connectors to begin with which brings some of the difficulty down. I was asking to see if others run anything similar in their home configuration. I’ve met people who run MISP from home before so it sounded feasible to me.
I was also looking for the community aspect of this, I already knew they had a docker-compose config. I wanted to know who had attempted this before and what they’d learned, that sort of thing.
User name checks out
Imagine if a romantic partner said “I will send you a unique string, probably exactly 8 characters” to verify that I am your partner. You would laugh and remind them it takes less than a second to generate every 8 character combination possible.
Instead, your SO makes a key and keeps it with them at all times, and you promise to talk to them using a machine that makes secret messages only their key can decipher. For fun, they give you a key and make a machine too… Explaining this shit is complicated I’m sorry for what you’re about to read.
They send “heyy”, You send “whatup”, They send “send pics”, You take one, encrypt and send the pic, They say “huh? Wtf?”, You remind them about the secret key, They have no idea what you’re talking about -fail OR they send something in return back (which you decrypt) -success
That’s basically the same thing as authentication with a passkey oversimplified and only slightly wrong but good enough. There’s shitloads of devices that do it, yubikeys, authenticator apps, but they’re all doing that.
