    Great video, really enjoyed. Also, very inspirational idea, I'm planning to implement 30-day routine as well.
    I agree with your recommendation for notes, that they should maybe include multiple attack paths in order to be more realistic. Regarding that, I also recommend you to watch some ipssec videos, he's kind of doing that on camera, so you could get some good ideas on what to do from him.

    "more like a 60 day process due to laziness.. 😅" bro, I've always appreciated your honesty/trasnsparncy in your content. Been watching you since December and I can truly say you've helped me solidify my decision to get into cyber security. currently enrolled in a coding BootCamp and should be done within a month and a half. Thank you so much for documenting your journey, it feels like I'm a kid growing up watching a tv show and seeing the characters age with me

      VERY tough. But not impossible with dedication. I started with TryHackMe and moved to HTB when I understood more of what was going on. I taught myself from scratch using these platforms and now work as a junior pentester.

    Awesome video…just a thing, you mentioned live boxes and basically providing the solution to them…that’s against the tos…though it’s a quick overview. Just want to be careful with that.

    • @collinsinfosec
      @collinsinfosec  Před 8 měsíci +6

      Thank you for letting me know, I wasn't aware. I was wondering why I continued to see the user, root flags, and the passwords blurred out in write-ups. Hopefully this video remains in compliance with their ToS.

    • @codebeta_cr
      @codebeta_cr Před 8 měsíci +4

      @@collinsinfosec oh yeah, and there are still people that post the writeups when they shouldn’t. Also, the user and root hashes are cycled on reboot of the box, so that’s another reason why they blur the hashes as they wouldn’t work after a reboot and won’t be accepted as valid.
