My Favorite Resources
On this page is a list of resources that I’ve stumbled upon that have been helpful for my workflow. I’m not going to list super common tools like Nmap or Metasploit, just the ones that were unknown to me and really useful.
Reference
- Ippsec.Rocks: A website that allows you to search through IppSec videos for techniques and tools.
- Hacktricks: A huge compilation of techniques for exploitation and privilege escalation.
- pentestmonkey’s Reverse Shell Cheatsheet: A place to copy-paste reverse shells.
Tools
- Cyberchef: The best tool for dealing with formatting and encoding.
- UpDog: A great tool for exfiltration from a compromised machine.
- Joplin: The note taking app that works for me. It’s similar to Evernote and Cherrytree, but FOSS. Uses markdown formatting, so it’s really convenient for copy-pasting into Hugo or a Pandoc converter.
- Flameshot: One of the best Linux screenshot utilities. I used this app to take and annotate the screenshots for my OSCP.
News
- The Daily Swig: Security focused news from PortSwigger
- Schneier on Security: Great place for security news and opinion
