All of the content I am posting here is not necessarily meant to be educational or walk-throughs of machines. My main purpose is to eventually have as much as possible from my notes online for future reference from anywhere. Everything I am putting here is taken from my notes on machines, resources and environment configurations. My notes may also contain bits and pieces of info I found online. I will keep adding all of the resources I come across and use for my own training.
As you may already know, all the information found here existed long before I arrived. Before I arrived I always found myself at the edge of a cliff that went straight down, straight up, sideways and sometimes in circles spinning out into a vast world with no end. I knew it existed right there out in front of me for a long time, but I had no idea what it was like up close. It was all out there floating off in the distance doing strange things, dark and blurry and a little intimidating until I finally stepped off the cliff. Some very interesting people lured me into this mysterious world and eventually sent me deep into the unknown. I dove into the bottomless abyss of mystery and occasional madness with no thoughts about where I would end up.
Over time some of the knowledge slowly started to rub off and make sense as I tirelessly kept extracting as much as I could from the massive collective of amazing individuals who exist in the realm of cyber security. Although, as it starts to finally make a little sense, I still find myself 2 steps ahead and then 5 step behind. As I have heard, it's very hard to not feel the "impostor syndrome" even after you've accomplished a lot and started thinking you know something.
Anyway, I have tons of notes offline from the last 4-5 years that I am simplifying, editing, etc, and will keep posting new stuff here as much as possible, hopefully at least once a week or two at some point. Even though my original intention was mainly to put my notes online for myself, it would also be great if anything here is useful for anyone else who is making the same journey into the unknown.
