I need some help on tracking the source of these RDP access attempts on our terminal server.
Port 3389 is open on the firewall (I know this is a terrible practice. I don’t want to hear advice on using a VPN for LAN access)…. Continue reading RDP Audit Failures Brute Force Attacks

I am bruteforcing a WPA handshake in offline mode in Kali Linux for a pentest. I know that the password is 10 characters long, with numbers and special characters in there AND that it is not completely random. I want to creat… Continue reading Generating a custom intelligent password dictionary of 10 characters [on hold]
I had an interesting discussion the other day about code written for an embedded system. I was speaking with Voja Antonic about ‘firmware’. The conversation continued forward but I noticed that he was calling it ‘software’. We later discussed it and Voja told me he thought only the parts of the code directly interacting with the microcontroller were firmware; the rest falls under the more generic term of software. It really had me wondering where firmware stops being firmware and is merely software?
The topic has remained on my mind and I finally got around to doing some dictionary searches. …read more
This is partly an exercise to see if I understand passphrase generation from a given dictionary using the DiceWare technique. But also for possible personal usage.
All three-letter word lists I can find generally involve wor… Continue reading Using a list of three-letter words with variable capitalization as a DiceWare dictionary
Taking inspiration from Diceware and the other passphrase generators, I took a dictionary of 20k English words and used a script to generate typos of them, resulting in 7M “words”, giving 22.7 bits of entropy per word compare… Continue reading Passwords – extended dictionary vs dictionary attacks
