7MS #430: Interview with Dan DeCloss

7MS #430: Interview with Dan DeCloss

Today we're thrilled to have our friend and PlexTrac CEO Dan DeCloss back to the program! (P.S. PlexTrac is launching runbooks as a feature - and you should definitely check out PlexTrac's upcoming Webinar about runbooks on September 9!). We also did a PlexTrac 101 Webinar with them recently!

You may remember Dan from such podcasts as this one when we first talked to him in 2019. Dan and I have a lot in common in that we both started security companies about the same time, so I had a lot of questions for Dan around how business has been going since we last talked on the podcast. Today our topics/questions include:

  • What are the (good) warning signs that a passion project you have could be a viable business?

  • Why "having all the jobs there has ever been" is a great way to figure out it's time to start your own business :-)

  • At what point does a side project have to become what you do for your day job?

  • How do you safely prepare to quit a comfortable corporate life to life as a small biz owner? Do you go 100% on faith? Do you save your $ for a year so you can "float" your business for a while? Some combination of the two?

  • How important is it to have the support of your friends/family when starting a new biz?

  • Once you start a biz what are the best/worst things about wearing all the hats (engineering, sales, marketing, accounting, HR, etc.)?

  • When is it time to hire additional resources or raise additional money to support your growing business?

  • What marketing efforts are fruitful for a new security biz to spend time/money on?

  • How do you decide what bells/whistles to add to PlexTrac? Follow your own roadmap? Let the customers drive your direction? Some combo of both?

  • What new bells and whistles are coming to PlexTrac in the Webinar on September 9?! (Spoiler alert: RUNBOOKS!)

7MS #704: DIY Pentest Dropbox Tips – Part 12

7MS #704: DIY Pentest Dropbox Tips – Part 12

Hola friends!  My week has very much been about trying to turnaround pentest dropboxes as quickly as possible.  In that adventure, I came across two time-saving discoveries: Using a Proxmox LXC as a persistent remote access method Writing a Proxmox post-deployment script that installs Splashtop on the Windows VM, and resets the admin passwords on both VMs, all from the Proxmox SSH console without touching the console on either VM If you feel some of this is better seen than said, on this week's 7MinSec.club Tuesday TOOLSday broadcast we show this in more detail.

7MS #703: Tales of Pentest Pwnage – Part 79

Happy Thanksgiving week friends! Today we're celebrating a turkey and pie overload by sharing another fun tale of pentest pwnage! It involves using pygpoabuse to hijack a GPO and turn it into our pentesting puppet!  Muahahahahaah!!!!  Also: This week over at 7MinSec.club we looked at how to defend against some common SQL attacks We're very close to offering our brand new LPLITE:GOAD 3-day pentest course (likely in mid-January).

7MS #702: Should You Hire AI to Run Your Next Pentest?

Hello friends, in today's episode I give an audio summary of a talk I gave this week at the MN GOVIT Symposium called "Should You Hire AI to Run Your Next Pentest?"  It's not a pro-AI celebration, nor is it an anti-AI bashing.  Rather, the talk focuses on my experiences using both free and paid AI services to guide me through an Active Directory penetration test.

7MS #700: Pretender

7MS #700: Pretender

Today is episode 700 of the 7MinSec podcast! Oh my gosh. My mom didn't think we could do it, but we did. Instead of a big blowout with huge news, giveaways and special guests, today is a pretty standard issue episode with a (nearly) 7-minute run time! The topic of today's episode is Pretender (which you can download here and read a lot more about here).  The tool authors explain the motivation behind the tool: "We designed pretender with the single purpose to obtain machine-in-the-middle positions combining the techniques of mitm6 and only the name resolution spoofing portion of Responder." On a recent pentest, I used Pretender's "dry run" mode to find a hostname (that didn't exist) that a ton of machines were querying for, and poisoned requests just for that host.  This type of targeted poisoning snagged me some helpful hashes that I was able to crack/relay, all while minimizing the risk of broader network disruption!

7MS #697: Pwning Ninja Hacker Academy – Part 4

7MS #697: Pwning Ninja Hacker Academy – Part 4

Today your pal and mine Joe "The Machine" Skeen pwn one of the two Ninja Hacker Academy domains! This pwnage included: Swiping service tickets in the name of high-priv users Dumping secrets from wmorkstations Disabling AV Extracting hashes of gMSA accounts We didn't get the second domain pwned, and so I was originally thinking about doing a part 5 in November, but changed my mind. Going forward, I'm thinking about doing longer, all-in-one hacking livestreams where we cover things like NHA from start to finish. My first thought would be to do one long livestream where we complete NHA start to finish. Would you be interested? Let me know at 7MinSec.club, as I'm thinking this could be an interesting piece of bonus content.
