2014 : GPEN, GSEC, GCIA, GSE written

2015 : GSE, ARES, and … OSCP (I did the training in 2011 but I never sat for the exam 😀 )

If I will have enough money, and motivation … maybe one of the recon.cx trainings

2013: GREM, GMOB already done
GPEN in couple of weeks

2014: GCIA, finish OSCP, and ARES from eLS

I think that I have too many certs 🙂

I will probably go to it.

Is someone else interested/going ?

Congrats cr1p70 !

Just for my own curiosity, why do you want to do CEH ??

Thanks for the story.

I believe that the average quality of security pros is not increasing. The problem is that they just don’t keep the peace witht the advances in the field. I know is hard, and I know that it requires a lot of effort, but the ones passionate about this will pay the price.

I am just looking arround me and… things are not…[Read more]

Try editing the “virtualHW.version =” line in the .vmx file to your version.

It worked. Thanks !

I knew that must be something simple and that some smart guy on EHnet will figure it out. 🙂

I downloaded the VMWare image. When I tried to open it using my VMware Workstation 8.0.4 on Win 7 pro 64 bits I received the following error.

“The configuration file “D:VMwarekali-linux-1.0-i386-gnome-vmkali-linux-i386-gnome-vm.vmx” was created by a VMware product that is incompatible with this version of VMware Workstation and cannot be…[Read more]

Like anything, it’s about the money. China is about to overtake the US as the largest economy in the world. The have been doing it by stealing, manipulating currency, horrible labor practices as well as cyber warfare… you name it, China is doing it. This is why it always goes back to China.

I just wish we had the balls in the US to…

Thanks!

Sounds promising. I’m just wondering when I’ll have time for this one, too 🙂 ???

You know what I mean  8)

w00t! w00t!

Congrats!

It’s Saturday, so .. I suppose you’re not working 🙂

I love this site because you can find a little bit of everything.

You can find success storiest that motivates you, you can find different technical discutions, you can find help, and, most important, you can really find decent smart guys to talk to.

Have a nice year my EH friends!

I see that nobody commented on the movie. Last night I watched it with my wife. Here is my opinion about the movie.

The plot is very bad. The story have potential, but they didn’t make to the expectations.
The actors play really well, the images are nice, but … not enough.

My wife didn’t like it at all. Also, because it is only 35 minutes it…[Read more]

Thanks for the answers!

I’ll think about your opinions.

Hi Jim,

Thanks for the answer.

My idea is not to reduce the retention period, but to give an extra argument to get rid of many useless alerts. If they have to keep the logs for 7 years (as an ex), they must comply, but keeping garbage for 7 years…

Also, it will be a very useful exercise for all the analysts (and not only), exercise that will…[Read more]

I’ll try to be modest 🙂

– GFOR
– GCFA
– GREM
– GCIA
– GXPN
– SPSE during the summer

In the q4 probably OSCP 🙂

You know the saying “Aim For The Stars, If You Fail, You’ll Land On The Moon.” 🙂

I would say that it is better to start with 503. It will give you a good foundation in network intrusion analysis. Then, when you’ll master this level you can go to the next one.

What’s your goal?

Hey, congratulations! That’s a great score.

Back to the OSCP now?

I do not know if I’ll go back to the OSCP for the moment. Probably that I’ll try GCIA as it will help me in my current contract. Also, I’ll have to finish studying for SEC575.

I’ll go back to OSCP next year, for sure. I am wondering if they’ll have a new version.

I agree that the certs are addictive, but I also like that they bring you material benefit$$$  ::)

That’s an extra reason to keep studying.
