7MS #357: 7 Minutes of IT and Security Tips

Today I'm launching an ongoing series called 7MOIST. It stands for:

  • 7
  • Minutes
  • of
  • IT
  • and
  • Security
  • Tips

The wildest, craziest, nuttiest part of this series is that each episode will be 7 minutes long!

I know, I know! You're saying, "Wait a sec, bub, isn't that why this podcast is called 7 Minute Security in the first place?" And yes, you'd be right.

Basically, this is my way of going old school and getting back my podcast "roots" by delivering an episode before we had an intro jingle, interviews, sponsors, banter about hot cocoas or an outro song. Nothing but delicious content today friends, Enjoy!

Today's theme is:

Windows command line shortcuts and tips: Creative ways to play with cmd

Basically, you can do Windows Key + R then type cmd and Enter for quick access to command line.

But lets do some more fun stuff. Wanna open a command window from the desktop and launch a command in one swoop? Try this:

cmd /k

For example:

cmd /k ping 192.168.0.1

The cmd /k part opens a command window, and then ping 192.168.0.1 can be whatever command you also want to run on the fly.

And if you want to start programs and/or open files right from the command line, you can do that (in most cases) by just typing the program name, like:

notepad

Or, get really fancy and add a document name after the command. For example:

notepad meow.txt

If meow.txt doesn't exist, Notepad will simply ask you to create it!

Finding files faster

Call me crazy, but the Windows find/search feature sometimes doesn't find stuff that I know is there. So I still like using old school DOS commands for this. I might do something like:

cd \ dir /s *brian*.doc

The dir stands for directory, and the /s tells the system to search recursively.

See 7ms.us for the rest of today's show notes!

7MS #604: A Two Tool Teaser

7MS #604: A Two Tool Teaser

Today we tease two upcoming tool releases (shooting for Q1, 2024): TCMLobbyBBQ - a Python script for PC players of The Texas Chain Saw Massacre game to help players get out of lobbies and into live games ASAP! The script uses PyAutoGUI to take screenshots of what part of the game you're in, then make appropriate key presses and mouse clicks to get into lobby queues, then alert you when the game actually starts! EvilFortiAuthenticator - this tool will allow you to steal administrator API tokens from FortiAuthenticator which can lead to full compromise of the physical device. Happy new year!

7MS #603: Monitoring Your Tailscale Network with Uptime Kuma

7MS #603: Monitoring Your Tailscale Network with Uptime Kuma

Today I look at potentially replacing Splashtop and UptimeRobot (check out our episode about it here) with Tailscale and Uptime Kuma. The missing link (which I'd love some help with) is answering this security question: how can I setup Tailscale so that my 7MinSec testing box can connect to all these NUCs spread around the globe, but those NUCs cannot connect to each other (in case one is compromised)? Got some ideas? Let me know please!

7MS #600: First Impressions of Using AI on Penetration Tests

Hey friends, today I share my experience working with ChatGPT, Ollama.ai, PentestGPT and privateGPT to help me pentest Active Directory, as well as a machine called Pilgrimage from HackTheBox. Will AI replace pentesters as we know them today? In my humble opinion: not quite yet. Check out today's episode to hear more, and please join me on Wednesday, December 6 for my Webinar on this topic with Netwrix called Hack the Hackers: Exploring ChatGPT and PentestGPT in Penetration Testing!
