Yeah he should really take out the beginners from the title. He just sped by this as if you already know how to build a script in Python.

@@Beyondlimits_400yeah i know its ridiculous! we should all demand a refund!!

@@theuxofai3907 Yes it’s free lol, with that my point is that it’s a bit of a shitty course if it’s aimed at people who have never coded.

@@Beyondlimits_400if you find it shitty literally stop watching and choose among the other 1000s of free python courses at your level lol. You think he can make a single course for literally where every single person is at? Hilarious entitlement lol.

@@Beyondlimits_400this is extremely simple btw, if you are looking for an INTRODUCTORY course, just look for that.

thanks friend. the opening scene wizard is from a game called stone story. i made all the animals looping ascii gifs in AE, my girlfriend made the "explainer" animations. x

@@faanross awesome, thank you! The videos look so smooth

@@f1shh-sec really appreciate that <3

hey patates, thanks for the comment - appreciate it. to be frank this is just a labour of love, i originally started it to help me break into industry and land my first job - it already succeeded in that regard. now i'm just continuing because i genuinely enjoy it, it's a way for me to still practice design, animation etc. so not really chasing views, just getting nice comments like this is more than enough for me. hopefully i'll help a few people along the way. keep well.

Huge compliment coming from you, appreciate it.

sure, anything specific you’re interested in?

@@faanross defense evasion Powershell obfuscation ....

you mean the background animations - skull, jellyfish etc? made them in after effects.

also, the backgrounds they are superimposed on are from 'tektronix' - old analog animation.

hey, thanks appreciate it. this is a great point and you are 100% spot on. i guess i was stuck in C# paradigm where, since it's compiled to CIL, function/variable names are retained. but yeah comments always stripped, not sure what i was thinking perhaps referring to the fact that i changed the printf output. when i "massaged" i also changed order where i could, order of variable declarations, and for example where before initially some of the local variables were initialized to NULL and only assigned later, i just initialized them to their values immediately. my process was somewhat chaotic, i just went through it making changes and retried it, it worked first time, so unsure where the "line" was, but of course you could use defendercheck to ID what part exactly is triggering the detection). hope this helps, obvs feel free to compare the hellshell output to the code i linked above since its pre- and post changes i made. and thanks for pointing this out, i'll pin a correction to top of comments, and will attempt to clarify in a future vid. keep well.

Finalizing the script, it’s coming! IPfuscation with HellShell x

Bro develop,a adware ,spyware,a randsomeware plss prepare vedio for me bro?do for me bro

@@user-lv1py8zj3i hey bro i'm DEF never ever going to do any adware, scourge of the earth. i'm currently developing an entire course on creating a RAT in C#, it will have keylogging, screen capture etc so will scratch your spyware itch. As for ransomware, it's something i'll eventually get to maybe, my real focus is on what occurs immediately following exploitation. thanks for the suggests.

thank you friend 🫶🏻

thanks amigo 🤘

thanks amigo, appreciate that

thanks amigo, i appreciate that. i currently have about 5 vids, on my C# payload mastery playlist. also working on a full C# RAT course, probably dropping later this year.

@@faanross well I am not familiar with c# but since you explain things clearly I will definitely give it a try.

all good bruh.

yeah i spent some time now just fully immersed in the windows basics (well "basics" being quite relative here, perhaps fundamentals is a more apt descriptor) teaching from pavel yosifivich - got all his books and been spending about 2 hrs/day on his pluralsight courses. an absolute G. so much of what i presented here is my distillation/re-representation of his essential lesson on processes. but i do find for me too these things are so abstract and just seep my through my mind less i create some kinda story or narrative. this one was developed walking in forest with my pooch - good time to speak to "myself" since nobody else is around (mostly). as always, really appreciate your feedback. also please feel free if there's ever anything you think i can improve on etc - i'm happy to receive your critique. goal is to +1 with each iteration with the hope of making this as great as it has the potential to be. poco a poco. doing another short theory (or malware development foundations) vid on 'what is process injection', and then back to main C# course for a whole mini-series (within the series) on process injection, hope to touch on some more modern/advanced stuff too in that. have a great week. x

@@faanross oh nice i didnt know he had pluralsight courses, def gonna check those out. If youre open to content suggestions a video on your learning and notetaking strategies would be interesting. As an advanced persistent noob I struggle to find the right balance between taking excessive notes vs useful notes. Everyone says to take detailed notes as you are learning stuff but it feels like it makes the learning process so much slower. I for sure have saved time being able to reference notes from previous but i also have pages and pages of notes I never looked at again. Hard to shake the feeling of always playing "catch up" and so having your learning be optimized is critical yet difficult to achieve.

​@@wonkafansonly2005 yeah def the most affordable way to access his content, and there are 5 new courses there, totaling about 30 hours, dense af so can keep you chewing for some time. dude i TOTALLY feel you on the note-taking thing, it's something i still grapple with tbh but one thing that made a HUGE difference is earlier this year i switched from notion to obsidian. now to be clear there's nothing inherent in obsidian that magically fixes this, but i spent a lot of time then watching obsidian tuts and the imbibing whole PKM/zettelkasten school of thought. i mean that's a rabbit hole that can be a danger in and of itself (the distinction between path and goal becoming blurry), but i did notice that before in notion i was essentially just hoarding notes, and never looking a them. so they were essentially pointless. then i decided instead of copying my notes over from notion (about 2 years worth, so quite a bit), i was just gonna start anew, and make them "living note" - ie consolidate around specific topics and explain them as if to someone. and the intention is to eventually put them on my site (obsidian makes this easy too), so instead of having for example 4 different notes on process injection depending on the resource, i have one master page where i am explaining it as if to someone else. then when i learn something new about process injection, instead of just adding a new note, i'll just find ways to integrate it into my existing notes. anyhoo on my daily note this is my reminder to myself, kinda gets to the gist of it - "seek to understand, rewrite in own words, don't just mindlessly copy. this is not just an info dump to gather dust, but living notes that reflect your own understanding. write ideas down in your own words, not lists of info you can look up in google in a second - 0 point." something else is i used to immediately take detailed notes from the go, now for most things - let's use pavel's video as an example, i'll just watch it through first, staying as mentally engaged as i can. then i'll rewatch, engage (ie do it myself where relevant) and take notes. if i'm gonna take notes, i'm really gonna take them, which is an investment so it also means i'm 99% sure at this point this should be worth taking notes of. meaning i've created more of a system/mindset to be selective of what i take notes of, and then if i do i really make them my own. i'd rather have 10 pages of notes that are a product of my own thinking, than 1000 pages of copied and pasted notes of others. i can go on about this for some time, but yeah i think that mostly encapsulates it. no i'm super happy and grateful for content suggestions, tbh this is an idea that has been floating in the back of my head since i had a similar discussion with someone on x a week or so ago. so thanks for that, and please whenever you feel inspired to share a suggestion i'm very grateful - you are in many ways the most engaged/engaging and articulate viewer i've had to date, so really value your feedback.

the "no more drugs for that man" from face/off, ya stumped me on the first part... qui est jenny?

@@faanross famous song with that number in it :) czcams.com/video/6WTdTwcmxyo/video.html

oh yeah and was curious is your handle a reference to the office ep 'golden ticket'?

well thanks to you good sir.

@@faanross bro i have issue , i writed c# script then i build msfvenom in csharp , then when i compile windows defender is detect , can you help me , i can share source code of c# in my github .

​@@Jamaal_Ahmed hey unless you've taken specific actions to avoid defender this is to be expected - you did not do anything wrong. i've not gotten to the point in my course to deal with that, still just setting up fundamentals. so to be able to test and run etc without worrying about defender interfering i recommend: 1. set up a windows VM to do all your testing in 2. run 'windows defender remover' script by ionuttbara, you can find it on github. hope this helps, and don't worry we'll deal with EDR/AV evasion specifically in more depth soon, since this is a beginner course i need to cover intro topics before we can meaningfully discuss that.

@@faanross i got it thank you so much brother .

@@Jamaal_Ahmed anytime bro

Maybe run your code in a IDE like PyCharm and go to settings and add 'scapy' in 'python interpreter'?

man i just appreciate your comments so much, on so many levels. like you gets it, fr. have my gf to thank for the new visuals, she's digging it and will be more involved, gonna put more emphasis on that. yeah the visual id is coming together, i look fwd to evolve it further. next vid in motion tomorrow, hope to publish by eow. keep well fren. x

@@faanross appreciate you too my friend. looking forward to the next one!

@@wonkafansonly2005 awesome amigo. we're a few days away from publication, trying something a little different and included a lot of new animation. have a lovely day. x

cool man glad you found it useful, i saw you commenting on the other video re: scapy, but the message seems to be gone, not sure if it's a glitch or you deleted it lmk if you need help there.

yooooo - thanks for the epic comment brother <3 appreciate it. C# is a great choice to cover your OOP/high-level base if you're gonna attack windows. also a great vehicle to get going in windows maldev, it's very "plug and play". would also suggest learning at same time, or shortly after, C/C++ for lower level stuff. they compliment one another, and i actually find learning both at the same time and comparing them helps me learn each individually. LOTS of overlap in any case, for example here in this code we're using a lot of unmanaged (aka C/C++) functions already. but yeah having a solid C base is really imperative, i chose C# for this course because 99% of the training out there features C already so i wanted to bring something new to the table. and like i said - it's an awesome tool for the toolbox if you're gonna be attacking windows. keep well bro.

thanks - been noticing all your enthusiastic comments, appreciate it! happy haxorcizin' bruh!

together, we shall overcome 🫡

@@faanross I will eventually get a meterpreter past it haha

@@theman-mo9er godspeed.

@@faanross yo i got a meterpreter and a havoc listener past defender! thanks man

@@theman-mo9er nice bruh, let me know when the course is dropping i wanna attend

totally normal, key skills to develop are note-taking, commenting code, and knowing where to look to find information when you are stuck. Different things will click the more you do stuff but there will always be a component of forgetting and circling back to things you have already learned. IMO feeling discouraged, stupid, and overwhelmed at times is all part of it. Imagine you are a mountain climber, it never gets "easy" but you can get skilled enough to climb any mountain you choose and go where others cannot :)

@@wonkafansonly2005 epic response dude.

yooooo, no it's SUPER normal lol. the above advice is excellent, i would add: - don't just do tutorials, obvs watch them, follow along but then also "make them your own". look at my code, how can you improve things, or perhaps change things - find out what other encryption standards there are and change from say AES to RC4. just get involved - it will allow you to look at the material in another, "deeper" way. i always look at any lesson and ask questions, make changes, tinker and see what results. it's just going from consumption to expression, it helps a lot to develop insight. - and then tbh i would say, and you can't do this for everything because it's too time consuming, but find the things you REALLY want to lock in and teach it. this has becoming trendy known as the "feynman technique", popularized by the author of a book called "ultralearning", though apparently feynman himself never really articulated it as such. but just the simple idea in that when you explain something to someone you'll really discover where your knowledge breaks down, and then you can go ahead, fill in those gaps and create a cohesive mental model. so whether you give a lecture to an imaginary person, write essays, or create videos, just force yourself to explain it. this is one of the main reasons why i create these videos - by the time i've published this video i've not only researched multiple sources, but i've thought about it, re-articulated it in my own words, and probably gone through the ideas 5 - 7 times. and tbh dude even then i sometimes have to refer back to my old videos to remember things lol. so no it's totally par for the course, there are probably some special "rain main-esque" people out there that can read stuff and remember it instantly, but i'm a decidedly average person. but the thing is - i really love this, so learning, forgetting, re-learning - this is just a fun adventure for me. progress is painful and slow, but as long as you're intrinsically motivated it's really all gravy. thanks for the comment and keep well.

most welcome bro.
