7MS #662: Pentesting Potatoes - Part 2
Hi friends, today we're talking about pentesting potatoes (not really, but this episode is sort of a homage to episode 333 where I went to Boise to do a controls assessment and ended up doing an impromptu physical pentest and social engineer exercise). I talk about what a blast I'm having hunting APTs in XINTRA LABS, and two cool tools I'm building with the help of Cursor: A wrapper for Netexec that quickly finds roastable users, machines without SMB signing, clients running Webclient and more. A sifter of Snaffler-captured files to zero in even closer on interesting things such as usernames and passwords in clear text.

7MS #661: Baby's First Hetzner and Ludus – Part 2
Today we continue our journey from last week where we spun up a Hetzner cloud server and Ludus.cloud SCCM pentesting range! Topics include: Building a Proxmox Backup Server (this YouTube video was super helpful) Bridging a second WAN IP to the Hetzner/Ludus server Wrestling with the Hetzner (10-rule limit!) software firewall When attacking SCCM – you can get a version of pxethief that runs in Linux!

7MS #660: Baby's First Hetzner and Ludus
I had an absolute ball this week spinning up my first Hetzner server, though it was not without some drama (firewall config frustrations and failing hard drives). Once I got past that, though, I got my first taste of the amazing world of Ludus.cloud, where I spun up a vulnerable Microsoft SCCM lab and have started to pwn it. Can't say enough good things about Ludus.cloud, but I certainly tried in this episode!

7MS #657: Writing Rad Security Documentation with Retype
Hello friends! Today we're talking about a neat and quick-to-setup documentation service called Retype. In a nutshell, you can get Retype installed on GitHub pages in about 5 minutes and be writing beautiful markdown pages (with built-in search) immediately. I still absolutely love Docusaurus, but I think Retype definitely gives it a run for its money.
