Made my wife a surf and turf special Mother's Day dinner tonight. Lobster tail, filet mignon, and asparagus. Everything else homemade. Purple mashed potatoes, au jus, and garlic butter for the lobster tail.

Movie night with my daughter. What awesome movie that I love am I sharing with her tonight? Tonight I can introduce her to Mel Brooks.

Daughter named our family chat "COOL PEOPLESSS." I just updated it. Wonder if she'll notice.

Finally got around to ordering.

I was joking around and started to blast Eazy-E before we got there. Man that shit is racist. I had to turn it off. What were we listening to in the 90's 🤣

I'm going to be dropping of my daughter at her 8th grade dance soon. I'm playing her some songs to drop her off to. This includes Prodigy "Smack my bitch up, " Cypress Hill, and Easy E.

I want to post my write up from the past couple days to my blog but want to cover my ass so I'm asking my boss for permission. It is heavily redacted and absolutely no link to my work. I don't see why he'd say no, BUT I'm debating on doing it anyways since there's no link back.

Hacking my work the past couple of days has relieved me of the imposter syndrome I feel everyday. It's such a nice feeling. People really feel like this? I know it will return after this "high" is gone but I'm really liking this.

Anyone with experience escaping a DEV AWS instance into another AWS instance or environment? I'm pretty new to this and have questions. Can you DM me? Thanks.

They dismissed my access saying it didn’t mean anything. I hope this is true, but, as a hacker, I don’t agree with the immediate dismissal that there is no way to pivot to another machine. I got written approval from my boss to keep going to see if I can pivot to other machines.

Full fledged incident investigation as I suspected. I did get to show the steps in real time how I got my full admin shell so that was pretty cool.

Ok that's enough work for tonight. Good night. Successfully got a full admin shell starting from an exposed AWS bucket. 17 page report written. Will be presenting tomorrow. Wish me luck.

Aaaannnddddd.....shell......

So I found yet another vulnerability here at work. I was able to find aws session keys and connect via AWS CLI. I asked chatgpt what commands to run and it gave me "What you should do Immediately. Do not run:" advice. What do you think the very first thing I did was?

Just drove by a busy intersection by my house and there was like a 9 year old kid holding a sign that said "I stole $40 and this is my punishment."

This might be my new favoate whiskey.

🤣🤣🤣🤣Yes this is actually real. "Especially if you're over 40." I can't get over that line. 🤣🤣🤣

Well I got bitched at again today by our temp CISO consultant. My boss threw me under the bus. This happened before my one on one with my boss. I 100% stepped out of my comfort zone and didn't hold back. I have zero trust in anyone at work and fear I'm going to be let go Monday.

@pits666.bsky.social scree out kids. I found a summer camp for us. www.idtech.com/bots

I don't have enough characters so here is a screenshot of what I wanted to type.

Just read a post stating this and it's true. Cinco de Mayo falls on taco Tuesday this year.

Holy shit. Now that's a pay rate.

I'm at a bday party for my 6yo. His friend has a baby brother. I was giving him a thumbs up and he gave me the finger.

Lol. There is. Trump protest by us and one sign said flip is off if you're a pedophile

I applied for a pentest job and am trying to find a contact to follow up with to show my interest. I mentioned to my wife that I should just hack them and invite myself to an interview to prove my skills and she did not agree at all.

Anyone here by any chance work for Cyber Defense Technologies?

Not gonna lie. I'm out mowing and a government played car just parked in front of my house. Freaking out a bit from my hacking shenanigans.

Question for those in charge of hiring. I know sending a follow up email re-stating my interest and asking if there was any other info they needed from me is a good thing. What I don't know is how long should I wait before sending said email?

Bought myself a little something today. My last TV would get really dark no matter my settings making some things impossible to see.

I actually found a Jr. Pentest Position with actual Jr. description. Not like all the others that require 7 years experience and a master's degree. I applied and now impatiently wait.

Work has kept me away for a few days. Hope I didn't miss anything good. On a good/cool note, I had a call this morning regarding an incident that was possible site defacement. Turned out to be a single user BUT I volunteered to work with the user to make sure nothing malicious was installed.

I'm an idiot. I'm ssh'd into the victim machine. Need to look for a user's credentials. I'm manually looking into files one by one. Grepping here and there. Why the hell am I not running Linpeas to do the hard stuff for me?

Spent my morning updating and uploading my new and improved resume to all the job sites. Also sent it to the recruiter I spoke with yesterday during my reference call for my friend. I'm feeling excited.

For all my exes (none which are on here to my knowledge) this is what you left. Couldn't decide between pink or red so I got both. Reason? Just because.

Awesome!! Just got a call as a reference to my friend that was fired a couple weeks ago. The call went fantastic and it kinda turned into an interview and ending with us talking about our cats and dogs.

Isn't there a switch in linpeas to have it display only the critical findings or things you should look into? I looked through the help but didn't see anything. I swear there was something I used before so I didn't have to read through a bunch of stuff.

Bullshit.

I know the debate on certs. For me they are important. I never went to college & certs are validation to my self that I know my stuff. I'm not getting 100 of them, not doing it to make my signature longer or pad my resume. It's all for me personally. This shit is ridiculous.

Oh my God!!!! I was walking by the meat counter looking at their cuts of meat. A guy came out and asked if I needed any help. I just replied without thinking "No thank you. I'm just admiring your meat"

I Pixar-ified my wife and I for her birthday.

Probably the whiskey speaking & it being almost 1am, but I feel so lucky to have found such an awesome group here. I don't know what I'm doing, I shit post, talk about hacking sometimes, yet you all welcome me. Thank you. You are all awesome and I love you all. I'm off to bed.

After such a shitshow of a week and horrible horrible day (yes work is getting worse and worse every day) I've decided to take the night off and do things I enjoy. I cooked, am drinking whiskey, and am listening to ska.

Um.... Five (12) years? At least five (12) years of experience with NIST Risk Management Framework (RMF) supporting technical assessment (vulnerability scans) of control implementations and continuous monitoring post-system Authority to Operate (ATO)

Tried to spruce up my desk since starting next week I'll be here 3 days out of the week but was told to take it down.

Sweet, found a job posting that included the HackTheBox CPTS cert I got in their good to have section.

Just got this text. Gossip is that someone in marketing presented to the board, & was chatting with one of them who asked how things were going. She mentioned about people being pretty unhappy about the 3 days in office. She was subsequently fired and escorted from the building.
