Working on exploitation. The road ahead.

Hello folks, this is 23rd of February, and I have no clue how do i sleep without making myself the hardest person to EVER penetrate. I am working on exploitation (the art of penetration testing) and by default, i had come to know bunch of things, which I really would love to share. I believe, this has to be shared, not because people didn’t knew it already, for it’s for this, the people who didn’t know this. The art of exploitation, and the road ahead in security industry has a bigger scope, but, this doesn’t mean ANYONE would fit in the foreign land.

Security, and being able to protect it needs a sheer amount of dedication, which you cannot buy from a market. It’s pure dedication to what you do, and with the things you love to work with. So, on a clean note, the art of exploitation, has always been about learning all the time, learning new technology, learning and research on past as well, imagining things and framing it to look better (the artistic part !). Good hackers and always good artists as well, they might live a low life but ARE generously good hearted people, and with the right mix of the sugar to the coffee, we get a delicious taste.

I had been researching on a lot of things, working all the time, which i love it, and also, been onto the midst of corporate people, which is now a part of my life. It’s always the career I had ever dreamt of, working with the computers has been always good part, and always will be. From a job prospective, this will be the most awesome job satisfactory I can get, which most of the people lack, and hence take a lead in what i already do. I never had fear of consequences, and will never have, because my life has been alway this way, and I know the art 😉

All about IT ethics.

Hey, I am writing this from my lab desk. SO here’s to what we call the “IT” ethics, never call a guy/girl with “maa’m”, “sir”, etc tag, always “first name” is to be used, said one of my seniors. So, from today we follow this, eh? but what about the ladies, I call them “jee” after taking there name, but that is not allowed, sad !

I don’t care about the ethics tho, because, my mind always trigger to call them by there name + “jee” or “insert_some_other_tag_here” name; but that’s okay, have to maintain and train myself to using ‘only’ the first name. So here are 2 girls (management sector of the company) + 1 my senior + 2nd senior + 3rd senior  = total of 5 + 1 (including me) = 6 members (closed ones core members).

So that’s all for today that I learned apart from the technical stuff !
Catch you people later !

3rd day at office

Responsibilities are BIG. Real work starts today.  So, today I went down the stairs down the hallway, and bingo came a call. We have clients to get their work done, well what is the work? the work i already do. So there are certain agencies that would hire certain people to do there work for, sometimes they may be illegal and they may be legal, depending on the situation. But we are sticking to do the legal ones, because we have to change from the bad side and come out to the good side and do good, and trust me, we are trained for this, but the moment you enter the office, there is a crap load of shit you can do, routers, switches (the big ones !) lease lines and much more. The plan has always been to do good and come to the market with advisories. But what when you find a bank full of money on a server ready to get leaked? do you possibly go over it which “would” down grade your reputation, at least in the real world but at the same time make out a full time black hat money? I had been down that lane, but nah, this isn’t the time, the oath i took to myself has been always persistent, has been intact to my beliefs. SO NO. There are always opportunities all around, but apart from it, what matters is ‘control’.

So this has been 3rd day in the office, things are secure, the lines are secure, no unusual activities, chances are we get in, get out, put up a designed framework for what methods we used to “get in” ! and then prepare a advisory, that’s it, simple, no lurking around confidential data, which would bring me profit for a real long time. Also, i love this job, knowing secrets, but, at the same time, “keeping” them a “secret” for “some” and “them” only. The day starts, and we are ready to step in. Roger that sir !

Onto the lights…

Onto the lights of the midnight, he codes, onto the lights of the midday, he executes, until the evening, he sleeps, and onto the dreams, she spells magic within him.

It’s a long journey since my college detention and up here now. There has been drastic changes, things that had molded me, shaped me to what i am here today. Things have changed for a better growth, and I accepted everything with a 🙂 there is nothing for regret. Also to add up, she comes in my dreams, cheers me up and when I get up, I stay tuned at the mobile screen to see her txt. On midnights, I rarely txt her up, not after 1:00 AM, but again, I wake up for the whole 6:00 AM. It’s got tough (the life) but “perfect” with the beautifulness of the codes in my brain.
