Well, you have the idea's ? and you can learn php in the meantime ?

Sounds like a fun project, I'll dive into it myself coming weekend. I don't mind doing a small project in PHP again ? If you'd like you can contact me so we can work on it together ?

Hey all, I am trying to find out more about the RA2 Security type in the RFB Protocol (VNC). I have found information on RA4, as defined in the RFB 5.0 specification from RealVNC, but I am doing research into the RA2 security type, as defined in the RFB 4.0 (or 3.8) specification. However, in all the documents and official specifications I can't find deeper knowledge on the combinations of encryption in the RA2 security type. I am guessing the RA2 security type is a lighter version of the RA4, which is an RSA key pair with an elliptic curve diffie hellman key pair, but I can't find any further details on this. I either get documents that do say RA2 is supported by RFB 4.0, but no deeper knowledge on it, or I get Red Alert 2 pages ? Anyone out here that might have some deeper understanding on this? Thanks in advance ?

Well, I started working with PHP before the frameworks came out. So I am a bit biased when it comes to using frameworks (I hate them lol). But you might want to take a look at the following PHP function: http://php.net/manual/en/function.shell-exec.php This allows you to run a shell command, and it will return the results that you then can integrate in the page. ? You better secure that page very well though ? EDIT: Also here is a good example and explanation of the shell-exec and exec functions: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/7093860/php-shell-exec-vs-exec

I totally agree, I used to work as a network / system admin, and my default first choice for an OS is and has always been Linux, so I kind of grew up with it ? Also I have basically grown up with the internet, first time I logged in through a 28.8kbps modem was give or take 25 years ago, and I was hooked from the beginning, as where I learned basic webdevelopment in (d)html and javascript 20 years ago. Now six months ago I finally found the road I wanted to travel, and have been working as a pen tester in a small company. Unfortunately, people nowadays really expect a program to run perfectly and smoothly right out of the box, and everything has to look beautiful and such. While I still do most of my work in the terminal ?

I first started out with Kali, just to learn about the tools and get familiar with some of them. Now I mainly work from Ubuntu, with the packages installed that I use most of the time. And if I do need something new, I google about them and test them as I go in a virtual testing lab.

Hey everyone, About a month ago I bought a Silverlit Excelsior drone (I know, just a cheap toy), and this is my first drone (hence the cheap toy, as I wanted to know if it was something for me...and it is). However, the app that comes with the drone, so you can have a FPV experience, just simply doesn't work. It connects, shows a still image, and then just keeps on showing that image, or goes black screen. As the damned thing is so cheap anyway, I figured this could be a fun exercise for me to puzzle my way through, and perhaps build an app myself for the drone. But I kind of got stuck a bit with the RTSP protocol, and how to interact with the drone's camera. I tried a direct VLC connect to the drone's camera, but got an error. I have already tried to contact the company for specs or a solution, but they simply don't reply. (I wonder even if they still exist, even though their website is still up. As even the suppliers here in Europe have no more working telephone numbers on their website). Do any of you have any ideas on how I should proceed?

I'm with digininja on this one. I have worked for 16 years as a web dev and IT administrator. Due to my ever itching interest in hacking and pentesting though I just took a chance last December and applied at a small company that is on the red teaming side of things. During my interview I clearly stated that I had no relative hacking experience what so ever, just coding and hardware skills. Now six months later I have learned a lot of things on the job, and still learning every day. I can say it is challenging and sometimes even hard, and mistakes have been made during the last six months. But it is also very exciting to do, as you get into real world situations on a daily basis. With certainty I can say that learning on the job is the best way of learning, but you have to be lucky to find an employer that is willing to take chances. ? Also I would suggest to follow courses on cybrary.it, which is free, but offers certificates on many subjects that are relative in the pentesting / hacking world. It are just the basics, and real world scenarios will test your ability to find new solutions to the challenges you will encounter (tech keeps changing on a day to day basis). In my opinion, being able to adept on the go and being able to quickly find solutions to problems, are the main skills needed in the field (next to of course knowing the fundamentals). Keep focus, keep learning, and stay open minded, and I am sure you will succeed ?

Cybrary.it offers free educations on many topics in the security field. From basic networking principles to coding and pentesting. Awesome site, and it is free ? Also you can get certificates ?
