Not specific to this video but you have helped me a lot. I've gotten burnt out many times trying to make big projects. just sitting down and watching a video for a break or in the background while im thinking really helps

[@xenostim]

he always gets me stoked about cybersecurity. esp when I am burnt out or have my attention elsewhere

[@P-G-77]

Fantastic job done this "website container". Amazing.

[@marine0341]

I'm currently working through maldev academy and A) its awesome and B) these videos really help with learning the subtle things so thank you for doing them

[@btarg1]

I wish there was a site like this for game dev stuff. I love using snippets and copilot to help with unity, but a site like this would still be a great boon. Malware devs got it good!

[@ak1ra492]

Great video, really cool way to rapidly develop poc code etc

[@jaden8573]

john, can you please drop a link to at least your main function, i have a maldev subscription, and just learned some c, and learned process hollowing. im trying to launch an instance of svchost.exe (which idk if thats what you used) with blockdll policy and it just errors out. im really confused with all this c, anything helps!

[@randamutako]

How is it signature and entropy-wise?

[@PrakashKumar-se1qk]

What if the detection service providers uses this feature as well to write the signature/detections for it 🤔

[@btarg1]

Would love to see some bypassing AV stuff too!

[@a7madalmla512]

More mal dev content please 😍🔥

[@jaden8573]

does anyone have a tutorial on how to complete the rest of the file? im brand spankin to c, where ive only coded in python and powershell. any help would be great.

[@user-bh9wq6es5j]

Is cpp necessary for cyber security

[@DevSecOpsAI]

If he can write malware as well as he screams he's definitely the best at it.

[@lerrz8969]

Legit never reached for the volume button faster.

[@DevSecOpsAI]

I can listen to music on the volume i'm at rn and it's smooth, but playing john's video I have to lower the video's volume down to 25%..@@lerrz8969

We need mooooooooore malware development.

[@SajidQureshi__]

did it bypassed Defender ?

[@Slickjitz]

Highly recommend MalDev Academy

[@terryd.smithiimba9442]

i just spend $499 on the lifetime course. the code search site is about an extra $180 on top of that, and its a separate logon.

[@itzlue3965]

really? And didn't you use the discount code? :)

[@terryd.smithiimba9442]

@@itzlue3965 i bought it before this video came out, i suspect the new cost would have been $449.

[@GlenBeale]

Not paying that much for content that is freely available on KZbin and google. The only thing they've done is curated all the topics together so it's easy to figure out what to learn next, but that doesn't amount to $500. Hoping the entire course will be leaked on PirateBay at some point.

[@707projects2]

This was a month ago, what's your opinion on it?

[@terryd.smithiimba9442]

@@707projects2 i ended up having to purchase sektor7's priv esc, persistence, and defense evasion courses to get a full understanding of what malware can do. i strongly advise anyone to just pay for the cheapest option for maldev academy and move on.

[@takatoekoe]

thanks, now I can be a real cyber criminal jippiee !

[@georgehammond867]

good work dude

[@guardian1384]

Me not understanding any of this makes me feel like I'm sooo far away from this knowledge :)

[@ancestrall794]

Don't worry bro, with time and effort you'll get stronger for sure 🦾

[@kidnamedfinger.productions]

Every piece of malware code getting on the internet is being added to the antivirus databases, so it's not a good practice to rely on things like maldev.

[@kidnamedfinger.productions]

There's also likely gonna be a lot of python garbage code from script kiddies

[@theErockonian]

It doesn't seem to be for master malware writers. Just for beginners to learn. Also, don't many databases just relay on hash values and signatures? Change 1 bit, you change the hash, change a few aspects of its functionality (which may or may not work), it won't be flagged by its signature.

[@kidnamedfinger.productions]

​@@theErockonian But actually good antiviruses are much more sophisticated. I would take a more legit snippet, lets say i want to make a ransomware, then i would search for snippets to quickly encrypt large amount of data.

[@theErockonian]

@@kidnamedfinger.productions Not to be mean, but this is a confusing response that doesn't address any of my points. It's a training academy, so obviously you can't rely on it. That's like saying: "I did the tryhackme boxes and now I'm ready to hack microsoft". It's for learning, not real world malware development. Also, can you give specifics on how AV techniques are more sophisticated? Like behavioral analysis? And yes, I am aware you can search for malware snippets, but that has nothing to do with what we are talking about lol.

NICE!😃👍

[@xJJM10]

I might be naïve, but what is the legitimate reason to want to develop malware?

[@logiciananimal]

Crypto note - don't use standard RNG for cryptographic purposes. :) Also, it would be interesting to see how the various Defenders and other products react to various "obvious examples". Good stuff - I hope I can convince my CofC to let me use Maldev Academy :)

[@kevinrodgers7208]

maldev doesnt allow me with a paid vpn.. no thanks 100%

[@tools.shoe.country.quickly]

thanks Jon Computer

[@r0b1n97]

is it safe to assume most of these malwares will get caught by most modern AV's?

[@minhquang3126]

yes

[@Agile691]

No, malware with known signatures will get caught only.

This is the way AI will be working with code in the future. Instead of generating code it will use existing code. Put it all together like some script kiddie and off to the races.
