The last part when you turn on music is insanely cool, thanks a million

well said Tyler

THM prices are way better. However, HTB Academy Modules are a little more in-depth, and the writing on HTB is significantly better. I'm about 40% through both pathways, but I stopped HTB Bug Bounty path because I didn't want to pay the steep price to renew. I think the HTB Silver/Gold subscriptions are only worth it if you are going after the certs. But if you are after certs, TCM Security offers the best bang for your buck. Which is why I decided to go PWPA before CBBH. Cubes are not terribly hard to understand, but they are unnecessarily complicated lol.

The thing with sponsors in my opinion: Promote products and services that you already use yourself and brands that align with your values. Or products you think could truly help your audience. Pretending to like or use a product to get sponsors is not authentic. Your authenticity is why you are where you are at, people are tired of un-authentic content creators. Authenticity is the new gold. Sponsors are ok, but you have to be picky with who you work with. If one of your viewers buys a product you promote, and they have a bad experience with that product, you're reputation takes a hit. You're reputation is worth more than any amount a bad brand wants to pay you.

Thanks for making this video...I had just ventured to HacktheBox Academy (HTB Academy) literally two days ago, saw your video and have now ventured over to TryHackMe (THM) and I must say, I seem to enjoy their learning interface better. Thanks for this video!

One of the best THM room walkthroughs - can't wait for the next one!!!! Many thanks

❤❤❤

I know in your intro you mentioned that you do this live without any prep but I think it would be good to add as well that "while I do this live I may also get help from chat". This is because when other people try on their own with no guidance at all and they get stuck, they get stuck and wont move on. Some people solve it but longer than 1hour and 30 minutes. Like for example you were given the payload to use in chat for SSTI. This is not me trying to throw hate but just to not give the narrative to people watching the video he solved it in x amount of time doing it live with no prep. Like in an exam you do not get assistance, you either know it or you do not. If you do not know it in the exam, that's it. You don't get assistance. I think it would be good if u include timestamps of where you get stuck and just cannot move forward at all/where you got assistance. This will help people know that they are not the only ones who struggled. Like when boxes are active you do it by yourself, and if you cannot do it. Then you wait for it to retire or writeups become available.

I doing CASP+ and its really technical management level. CISSP focus are different. but for me, CASP+ / X is equivalent and could be better than CISSP.. Very Hands-on with simulation / performance based question. Learn a lot from it

HTB 250 usd/month, to afford this you need to have good paying job

Str8 genious thank you

I finished Jr. Penetration Tester at TryHackMe and got CBBH. Hack The Box and Jr. Penetration Tester Path were very great. Hack The Box also has a Senior Web Penetration Testing Path. The CBBH is more valuable than the Certificate of TryHackMe.

i thought you clean shaved ( shows in thumbnail )

thanks man! Super helpful. I use THM and love it; HTB's price point has kept me from jumping in. I do really like THM though and especially the access to walkthroughs to help me learn when I get stuck. Also, hard agree: I hate when I click into a Medium article and get the answer blasted into my eyeballs with no explanation of how to get there. I'm looking for a lesson, not an answer sheet. Anyway love your videos, thanks for posting these.

The pricing structure for HTB is insane and honestly pushes me away from their platform. I gladly pay for a yearly sub to THM, and even when I fall off for a couple weeks/months at a time I still feel like I get my money's worth.

Thanks for the thoughtful comparison between the two topics cover on THM and HTB! I've always found the layout of the HTB academy materials to be quite a bit clunkier than the rooms on THM. What's your opinion on the UI and user experience for the two platforms?

Hi Tyler, I like the content of your videos. Please research into the sponsors and accept them if you feel good at heart in vouching for them. Keep your money safe for rainy days. Life comes with surprises. If you still have more money, you can do more grants through your church.

Hey what are the best resources to learn pen testing , with 0 experience completely for free

Thanks again for another great video to save the day. Nearly flipped my desk trying to solve Task 3 Q2. LOL

Cors & sop in arbitrary flag i found but it's consider wrong which is Right please give it me.... And in last ctf second flag for i can't found sing in page i try /access but connection error show.. how to complete?

Thanks Tyler! Nice to hear the feedback

Bro, you're just too good!! Love your content❤

HTB Need to modify their fee system and the conditions so learners have mode confident to come at. Its scary to learn When Its hard to get help or When you know after one year no mode access to what you paid for. THM For learning AWS need ~350$ for 3 months why no plan for only one month?

Hi Tyler! Where is my HTB voucher?

I'm a student and I'm one skill assessment away from finishing the cbbh path on htb. Really worth the money. Idk if I will go for the cert as well. Is it worth it? Already employed, so no need to add sth to my resume. On the other hand I like and pay for thm as well, cause I like their byte sized lectures comparing it to the wall of text on htb. Anyways both are doing a great job. Thanks for the video, Tyler!

your not allowed to stream retired content on HTB?? i know you can do walkthru videos, but im not sure about live streaming. its more about the points system for players, Active content gives points for flags, retired content doesnt.. nice flick tho bro

Burb Suite on HTB academy is not easy. But they cover every features.

I will explain how cubes work. Cubes represent the amount of money you use to unlock each module. After completing a module, you will receive a refund of a specific number of cubes. Each tier of the module requires a different number of cubes to unlock. If you subscribe to the Silver monthly plan, you will have a total of 200 cubes. For example, the Bug Bounty Hunter path requires 1,370 cubes, so it will take seven months to unlock the entire path at the Silver subscription level. Alternatively, you can spend $106 on a Platinum plan and one Gold plan to unlock this path. The Senior Web Pentest path costs $514 to unlock. Once you unlock a module, you will have permanent access to it. However, with the Annual or Student plan, access will be lost once your subscription expires.

I am very new to ethical hacking and also completed Tryhackme web app pentesting path recently. It was great and HTTP smuggling I found it easy 😅

Hi thanks for this informative video. I believe that the cubes in HTB Academy is used to unlock the modules permanently; that being said you can access the modules if there is any future updates to it. When the Gold/Silver subscription ends I believe those modules are no longer accessible.

The HTTP smuggling was indeed the most difficult for me as well, but due to the friendliness TryHackMe provides, I managed to wrap my head around it in a slightly more advanced levell.HTB coming next along with Port Swigger.

thank you very much for this video! it's true that if you're a beginner and you're doing an advanced part, you leave with a confused head. However, I still do it because I’ve noticed that even if I don’t fully understand everything and am still learning, revisiting these concepts-still unclear to me-gradually helps to clarify them. Over time, they become less and less confusing.

Hey Tyler. How do you manage all these with a family?

I have done intro to cybersec, web fundamentals, red teaming and cyber defense(still not completed), and junior pentester on THM, I come from a totally different background in motion graphics and editing. The platform is great and beginner friendly straight to the point for total beginners like me. HTB was a bit hard whenever I tried it, but of course great for those who already have some background in cs, IT or cybersecurity

Hey Tyler pls review Pentesterlab as well....thanks❤

Tryhackme teaches ffuf in Jr Penetration tester path but not really in depth

motivation to not google answers is needed, its tough when a new google tab is a click away...

i am currently doing pentester path on HTB. and its great. and its more in depth than THM. and i am loving the suffering of not finding the proper writeups of HTB😄

About 30% of the way through the Active Directory Pentester path on HTB Academy now myself (though there's 14% overlap with the CPTS role path, so that's what I started at). Curious if THM has anything similar - all I'm hearing about is web. Also, does THM have any practical exams or do they just award the cert the instant you're done with the path? Because the latter approach is probably not the best way to teach either.

Busy doing the CPTS path on Hackthebox,but doing it by buying cubes and unlocking the modules as i dont have a subscription,but do have a subscription to Tryhackme...lol cant do both😂

Completed Red Team Pathway on THM. Pretty solid and deep. I like the format compared to most of HTB academy (great but, less leading). Both have their quirks and I like to do both for reps and recommendations for others. Will start this soon.

Im currently taking the Web app path on THM as well as HTB Pentester Path, thank you for this cool overview!

:)

Can't wait to do all of TryHackMe's paths

Thanks! Learn a lot from your videos. Respect 🫡

But how do you know how to write that code like how do I know what API to use

And the flag is shown😅

What about someone coming back to IT after being away for 2 years? Would I need certs? If so, which ones? If it helps, I am trying to get back into IT support to start off.

This is the glorious king who beat me on vr boxing

One of the best creators🎉
