Introduction File and Hash Threat Intel is a beginner-friendly blue team challenge hosted on TryHackMe, designed to help SOC analysts and cybersecurity learners build practical skills in malware detection, hash analysis, and threat intelligence workflows. This room simulates real-world scenarios where attackers disguise malicious files using misleading names and extensions, requiring defenders to investigate using hash
Introduction When most people think of malware, they imagine ransomware encrypting thousands of files or spyware silently recording keystrokes. Yet in recent years, a quieter and far more dangerous adversary has emerged: PS1 malware. These are malicious PowerShell scripts designed to execute in memory, evade detection, and blend into legitimate administrative tasks.Unlike a traditional Trojan,
Introduction In the world of network security, understanding how data packets traverse through networks is crucial. One of the most powerful tools available for packet manipulation is Scapy, a Python-based interactive packet manipulation program. Scapy allows users to create, send, and analyze network packets, making it an essential tool for network engineers, security professionals, and researchers. This guide will delve into the process of sending
Introduction Network monitoring is an essential practice in modern IT and cybersecurity, allowing organizations to maintain the health, performance, and security of their networks. As networks become increasingly complex, the need for effective monitoring tools has grown significantly. This guide will explore how to create a network monitoring tool using C++, focusing on capturing and analyzing UDP packets. By understanding how to monitor
Introduction HTML injection is a critical web security vulnerability that arises when a web application fails to properly validate or sanitize user-supplied input before including it in the HTML output. This flaw enables attackers to inject arbitrary HTML code into web pages, which is then rendered by the browser when viewed by other users. As a result, attackers can
Introduction Linux privilege escalation is a critical security concern that involves exploiting vulnerabilities to gain unauthorized access to system resources. This technique is commonly used by attackers to elevate their privileges from a limited user account to the root user, allowing them full control over the system. The root user has unrestricted access, enabling them to modify system configurations, install
Introduction In the realm of cybersecurity, understanding how backdoors function is crucial for both offensive and defensive strategies. A backdoor is a method of bypassing normal authentication or encryption in a computer system, allowing unauthorized access to data or systems. These covert pathways can be exploited by malicious actors to gain control over a system without detection, leading to significant
Introduction In today’s digital landscape, cyber threats are evolving more rapidly than ever, presenting serious challenges for organizations and individuals alike. As technology advances and our reliance on digital systems grows, attackers are constantly developing new and more sophisticated methods to breach defenses, steal information, and disrupt operations. Traditional security tools and reactive approaches are no longer sufficient to keep pace with
