Love him or hate him the culture at Facebook seems to be one that a lot of IT companies could learn from!

I love the quote on the posters:

"Move Fast and Break Things."

Love it!

Actually, one of the most significant problems is the amount of unskilled people that are offering these services. There's an abundance of charlatans passing off copy-pasted Nessus reports as "penetration tests." I even saw one assessment where the consultants made a huge deal out of two systems that were in fact their own systems that they included in the scan on accident.
 

I would not limit this to just Infosec... I have found that a lot of the IT guys I have worked with claim to have this cert and that training but in the real world they don't have a clue! Training in Inforsec and IT has become such a HUGE money spinner that every man and his dog wants a part of it.

Strongly agree with you. Its not just limited to Penetration Testing but also to the Infosec education being offered.

What many don't understand is that it's absolutely not easy to find a job.


I agree! It's so hard....  Cry

Good advice ajohnson. I have run a company as well and know how much work is involved in getting it off the ground and then keeping it going!

As anyone who has been hanging around on this forum for a while will know one of the most common questions is “How do I get into the industry?” and as always the users on the forum will go out of their way to give helpful advice.

I have a slightly different question.

It seems to me that a few of the guys (and girls) on forum work for themselves or as consultants in the industry.

I want to hear from a few of you as to the challenges you faced while starting up your company.

How did you get your first client? I imagine its hard to convince someone to let you perform a pentest on their network when you have no rep in the industry.

Has it been worth it?

What advice would you give to someone on the forum who is thinking of starting up there own company or working as a consultant?

if no luck i just might go to computer store myself and have them break into my account to delete it..

You do understand that MySpace is not stored on your computer… Hacking into MySpace even to delete your own account is illegal. It’s like hacking into a bank to close your savings account. You need to take the advice of the users here and just contact MySpace

Also what's with all the commas?

Commas are the new full stop…

Counter Hack Reloaded is a great book. Read it and when you can follow along with that Ed is doing..... it will give you a great all round intro into hacking and each chapter builds on the next so starts out with a great into of networking, so if you have no networking skills this is a great start.

25  Ethical Hacking Discussions and Related Certifications / Forensics / Re: TrueCrypt System partition or entire system drive? on: September 26, 2012, 08:42:59 PM
As far as I know (and I could be wrong!) the recovery partition is protected and the user can't (most of the time) write files to it. When you use it to recover it will just blow your system partition away and it will be like a new one.

So if that is the case then there is no value in encrypting that partition as it holds no user info, just OS, drivers and the bloatware that Dell provide.

Again I could be wrong...

I would be concerned that if you encrypted the Dell recovery partition that it would no longer work... most of the recovery partitions are just press F12 at boot and select Recover or drop the CD in the drive and off it goes.
27  Features / Book Reviews / Violent Python on: September 25, 2012, 12:12:16 AM
I was hunting a new Python book when I came across this , it's not out until November but figured I would let you guys know...

Violent Python: A Cookbook for Hackers, Forensic Analysts, Penetration Testers and Security Engineers

Quote

Violent Python shows you how to move from a theoretical understanding of offensive computing concepts to a practical implementation. Instead of relying on another attacker's tools, this book will teach you to forge your own weapons using the Python programming language. This book demonstrates how to write Python scripts to automate large-scale network attacks, extract metadata, and investigate forensic artifacts. It also shows how to write code to intercept and analyze network traffic using Python, craft and spoof wireless frames to attack wireless and Bluetooth devices, and how to data-mine popular social media websites and evade modern anti-virus.

What city are you in?

Hey , I am in Brisbane.... don't want to move, love it here too much. One day I guess if the right job came along I would look at moving.

Thanks for the welcome :-)
