thank you for these videos/playlists, theyre INVALUABLE!

Thank you!

*Thank you* for that explanation of what an NMAP ACK scan actually is and what the point of it is.

[@stuffy24]

Thank you! I think that is why people struggle with security because most teachers make it harder than it needs to be

[@adsfwef1331]

GPT-4 explanation about -vv versus -dd for noise in Network: From a network noise perspective, neither -vv nor -dd will cause more network traffic than a normal scan. The -vv and -dd flags only affect the verbosity of the local output that nmap provides, not the actual amount of traffic being sent over the network. So, these flags in and of themselves won't make a scan more likely to be detected. If you're concerned about evading detection, consider using techniques like decoy scanning (-D), fragmenting packets (-f), or timing options (-T) to adjust the speed and pattern of your scans. Be aware, though, that more stealthy scanning techniques can take much longer to complete.

Haha that's awesome!

damn bro, the zombie part nailed it :)

Thanks so much!

Nmap is fun, I cant wait to master it. I see it is usually step 1 for CTF's so I'm excited to get comfortable with it.

[@stuffy24]

Ya ctfs are fun games but not super realistic for real world pentests and things. It's Def not step 1 for pentesting

@@stuffy24 currently studying for PenTest+. Yes I know it’s kinda useless but it’s $50 for the V3 beta so I figured might as well and next up I’m going to do HTB cert for pen testing. Is CTF not useful at all? At the moment I am sharp In my fundamental but no actual hands on experience. Any guidance?

[@stuffy24]

@alechernandez5506 I'd hop in the discord so we can discuss but what fundamentals do you have ?

I love your explaining

Thank you

Great video bro, helped me and Thank You.

Thanks for the video you should do more firewall evasion,bypass is the most overlooked area for pentesting tutorialvideos but is the first line of defence

[@MrZhongguoliliang]

thank you for your video！But I want to ask a question, in task4,in tcp window scan, how did you know 1 flag was set？Thank you

[@stuffy24]

Hey thanks for the question. Can you throw it in the discord questions with a screenshot. I am not sure which part exactly your asking about or which flag specifically your asking about. Thank you

[@MrZhongguoliliang]

@@stuffy24 ok thank you.
