What’s up?

In this post we will learn how to secure our VPN so that it doesn’t leak any traffic.

If you have ever used a VPN for geolocation specific sites or applications, you might have run into the issue where your VPN turns off and suddenly you are connecting to that application using your main connection which can lead to minor interruptions from that site or application or even becoming blocked.

A solid setup can be the differential preventing this from happening and that is what we will learn how to configure in this post using some basic Windows firewall rules.

Let’s begin.

In this post, we’ll check out file transfer in Python 3 with file size verification check.

In many Python scripts you’ll come across the need for sending and receiving files over the network, so I decided to make this tutorial for a simple yet stable set of scripts to implement whenever needed.

We’ll only use standard Python libraries included with a default installation: socket, time, os and sys.

One nice little detail we’ll implement is file size verification, so that the receiving party can be sure they received the file with the exact amount of bytes the sender intended.

Let’s check it out!

Hello guys.

In this post we’ll take a look at how to setup Apache, MySQL and PHP on Windows and Linux. This setup is mainly for a series of SQL injection labs that I’ll be posting in the upcoming days (you’ll find the link for the HTML/PHP below). For this reason, it will be a development setup not a secure one. 😉

What will be covered:

• Installation of Apache, MySQL and PHP
• Configuration of each service where needed
• Creating MySQL user, database and grant privileges
• Download HTML/PHP pages and configure it properly

Since I’ll be doing a series of SQL injection posts, I figured it would make sense to create this post given that understanding the installation process, database users/permissions all contribute to the vulnerability.

With that said, let’s begin!

What’s up guys!

Hope y’all been alright lately. I’ve been studying a bunch as part of a certification package I was awarded – focused on network security. While I’m excited to do it and learn a lot of cool stuff, it’s also draining pretty much all my free time.

While I’ve been doing this certification I’ve had to dive deep into a lot of theory-oriented network stuff like frames, packets and all those meaningless terminologies. It’s so much theory that I had to install Scapy just to see some of these packets in action and get hands-on with the damn thing – I mean seriously if you’ve taken some of these certs you’re probably used to how dry and boring it gets just reading about protocols and not actually doing anything.

Anyway we are here to talk about Scapy today and not my boring life 🙂

What is Scapy?

To put it simply, its a packet sniffing and crafting program. There is a lot more you can do with it like decoding certain protocols and interacting with Wireshark captures among other cool things (see the documentation page).

Howdy!

In this post we’re going to take some code from a previous post ‘Port Scanner in Python 3‘ and converting it into a program with a graphical interface that you could run from a mobile device or desktop.

You can watch the video above to follow along with the programming. I am using PyDroid application for android to program and test out the code.

Mostly everything should be explained in the video, but if I missed anything just leave a comment below and I’ll definitely help you out. 😉
