  1. Just curious is there any legality issues using it just to watch whats going on a network.

    All I want to do is see what information is coming in and out of my network. I know you can use wireshark but what makes the pineapple different?

    Also how user friendly is it?

  2. So its come time for me to get a new laptop.

    I don't know if I should get a 13" or 15", retina or no retina, maxed out specs or not.

    Heres what I aspire to use it for.

    • Programming ( Java, C++, Swift, ect..)
    • I plan on working in the security field, network and mobile.
    • I want to be able to run programs and such to create algorithms for cryptology.
    • Occasionally run VM's

    If I was to get a 13" I would also get an external monitor to use as well.

    Since I am in college I tend to travel a lot between Georgia and Tennessee. So portability around campus and travel is important. I only mention this because if anyone could tell me if there is a big difference in the 13" and 15" retina weight! Thanks!

    SWWEEEETTT, I give you the ugliest code but yet functioning! Thanks for the help! Definitely excited to learn to code!

                    case 2001:
                           System.out.print("2001");
                        break;
                        
                    case 2000:
                           System.out.print("2000");
                        break;
                           
                           
                    default:
                           System.out.print("Invalid Year, Try Again.");
                    }
            
                
    

    So I know there is probably an easier way to go about the years but I found copying and pasting to be easiest for my skill level. ONLY problem is how would I combine all of the public static void groups together to get it to run as on continuous program?

    So it would ask for the month, day, year, then at the end spit in out all together in MM/DD/YY order?

  5. So I'm in an Intro to java class and I'm struggling to write a program.

    Basically I need to write a program that when given 09/26/2012 or ANY DATE (1-12/1-31/2000-2015) gives an output of September 26th, 2012.

    This is what I've done so far for the months. I'm trying to use the switch method. But I don't know how to ask for user input and make it into a variable so that it would became a month.

  6. So I have a 15 inch Late-2011 MBP i5. I'm looking to put in a 250 GB SSD into it. I only have about 170 GB of memory being used on my mac, half of it is files that need to be deleted. My question is should I replace the CD drive and use that space to put in the SSD or remove the org. HD and put in a SSD. I have a 500 GB external drive I could store my files on a keep stuff on my mac to a min.

    I'm not so good with hardware so someone who is, I would appreciate the advice!

  7. From my understanding I think its like a key. If you don't have the most up to date version the university servers "quarantine" you and you're not allowed internet access unless you're updating norton. I feel that there may be a way to by pass it but from my understanding the schools system is very solid.

  8. Well just to be safe I switched to my other computer, I'll have Apple look at it. I'd rather pay them to look at it then have something burn my computer out and have to buy a new one. Thanks for the help everyone!

  9. I have to keep Symantec to be able to use my university wifi. I've done all of this except removing Symantec and my Mac still is going nuts. I think I'll cave in and take it into the Apple store. Anyone want to give a rough estimate on how much this may cost?

  10. I just updated flash, didn't know it was out of date but I don't think that could have been causing my mac and fans to go crazy.

    On a side note, I don't have a whole bunch of important documents and programs on my mac, should I move everything I want onto an external drive and re-install the OS?

  12. My MBP keeps getting really hot and the fans will fire up at full speed with nothing but Safari open. I can post some pics from my activity monitor if that would help anyone determine what causing my mac to freak out.

  13. True, if I wanted to have an easier target Android would be the way to go. It's reportedly the most vulnerable OS in the mobile industry thats widely used, with Apple right behind it. But the reason why I want to focus on the iPhone is because I have access to one. Unless you have any suggestions of a relatively cheap Android device that can be used.

  14. So recently I watched a video on Motherboard, about hacking cellphones and what not, interesting video. I also watched this video on youtube by CNNMone . I want to know how would you go about intercepting in coming and outgoing text.

    Theoretically could you use a wifi pineapple to conduct a man in the middle attack with a cell phone being the target? Or just by setting up using your own wifi network and then using programs to preform such task?

    I noticed one of the guys in the Motherboard video was using Kali linux (I think) to steal cell phone info. Can you use kali linux for mobile pen testing?

    This is where I'm stuck at with all of this. I don't know where to start, I need help getting pointed in the right direction. I'm not asking for someone to type up the whole experiment for me but rather give me a starting point.

    *Must add, this is for research purposes only, I have no intentions of stealing or spying on others information. I would be using my own iPhone and network for this test.* If possible learn how the vulnerability works and build an app to combat the threat.

  15. Just a side note, I have no intentions of using TOR. I guess I was just curious as to what others thought about it. I mean yes TOR is much more secure but that doesn't mean its impossible to track it back to the original source. I watched a video earlier which raised the question of who exactly runs TOR? If people voluntarily allow their computers to be used as nodes then it should raise some concern, right? Also on the black market and in general, hackers hack each other probably more than regular users of the internet. Overall how do you know who ever runs TOR isn't stealing info and credentials?

    Cooper: I have to give you credit, you're knowledgeable about a lot of things and give very in-depth answers. Your answers help me a lot as I'm sure they do for other users.

  16. To what extent do y'all think TOR works? From what I've seen in videos its nothing but a bunch of illegal stuff. Theoretically it may mask your IP but can't your service provider still see what your doing?

  17. I always see guys running a shell with all of a devices activity showing up thats running in the background. For example if I were to connect a cell phone (i-phone 5) to my network, how would I display it and what its doing in a shell? (I'm on a MBP)
