Also Not Hacking (or Cool):

Blue Team, This is not what is looks like:

Occasionally It Looks Like This:

But Mostly It Looks like This:

Hacking Def:

• To modify a system from its original function to be used in a way not intended by the designers –funsized

• To use one's skill in computer programming to gain illegal or unauthorized access to a file or network –dictionary.com

• Whew. I feel so much better now.

Real Hacking (computers):

• The art of trying the same thing with tiny variations a million times.

• Not Super Exciting At First.

Tools of the Trade:

• Backtrack 5• Metasploit• SET

Backtrack

Metasploit

How can I do this?

• Learn how things should work first, so that you can learn how they shouldn’t work

• Practice! Set up systems that you can manipulate.

• Practice on home routers: often they are linux-based systems that you didn’t set up.

Dispelling the Myth:

• This may be hard to hear.• Just wanted to warn you first.• Okay, here goes: Hackers are not infallable

• Actually, it’s pretty hard to get into your systems.

• Unless you really screwed up. Then it’s easy.

My Red Team Experiences:

Hacker Culture

• Tight Knit Group• Unlikely to share• Speak the language• You should probably like electronic music (techno, dubstep)
