I recently came across a tech professional advising a user to take some plaintext of their choice, run it through one of these ciphers, convert it to Base64, and then use the result as their master password on LastPass.
Howe… Continue reading Do ciphers and encoding schemes make passwords more secure?
hi all i need help for this passage i got a request but i don’t know what can i do:

So I bought this GVM-560AS LED photography light on Amazon. It is a really good light for the job; but to control it remotely you have to download a really dodgy APK from the GVM website, a package which flagged red across the board on Vir… Continue reading Problem with Reverse Engineering GVM light, possibly encoding issue
When attempting to obfuscate strings in a modern program, xor is probably the most common option. By this I mean running each char of a string through a function which xors the char with some given number. This is popular bec… Continue reading What string encoding options are there besides xor?
An application that I’m working with is transforming IPv6 addresses into an alternative format and then storing them in a SQL table. I’d like to read the SQL table and translate the data from its current state back into the … Continue reading Determining data transformation approach [on hold]
There is an encoded text with a ‘=’ at the beginning, middle and at the very end. Does that mean something in the world of cryptology?
Note: The ‘ = ‘ symbol is also at the end but also in the middle of the encoded text.

I’m trying to decode a piece of code which has 6 equal signs at the end, i know 2 signifies base64, so does anyone have any idea what 6 signifies.
Here is the code:

Can someone explain to me how can I use this encoder encoder/x86/bmp_polyglot?
Via msfvenom its not possible because it doesn’t give the possibility to set the encoder options (BitmapFile).
For instance:
msfvenom -p windo… Continue reading Metasploit encoders

The title I think gets the point across. Lets focus solely on these hypothetical situations:
Basic Auth headers when making API calls with user:pass
Storing passwords in an SQL database
