Hey friends, today we start pwning Ninja Hacker Academy – cool CTF-style lab that has you start with no cred and try to conquer domain admin on two domains!

This week I’m working on a mixed bag of fun security and marketing things:

• A pentest I’m stuck on
• My latest lab CTF obsession: Ninja Hacker Academy
• A cool “about 7MinSec” marketing video that was recorded in a pro studio!

Today’s episode is a downer! We talk about things you might want to have buttoned up for when you are eventually not alive anymore:

• Living will
• Buried vs. cremated?
• Funeral plans
• Funeral PHOTOS?

I also talk about how my dad broke his ribs while trying to break a chimpmunk, and how a freak 4-wheeler accident also had my ribs in agony.

Today Joe “The Machine” Skeen and I pwn the third and final realm in the world of GOAD (Game of Active Directory): essos.local! The way we go about it is to do a WinRM connection to our previously-pwned Kingslanding domain, coerce authentication out of MEEREEN (the DC for essos.local) and then capture/abuse the TGT with Rubeus! Enjoy.

Today I share some tips on creating a better purple team experience for your customers, including:

• Setting up communication channels and cadence
• Giving a heads-up on highs/criticals during testing (not waiting until report time)
• Where appropriate, record videos of attacks to give them more context

In today’s tale of pentest pwnage I talk about a cool ADCS ESC3 attack – which I also did live on this week’s Tuesday TOOLSday. I also talk about Exegol’s licensing plans (and how it might break your pentest deployments if you use ProxmoxRox).

Today I share some tips on presenting a wide variety of content to a wide variety of audiences, including:

• Knowing your audience before you touch PowerPoint
• Understanding your presentation physical hookups and presentation surfaces
• A different way to screen-share via Teams that makes resolution/smoothness way better!

Hi everybody. Today I take it easy (because my brain is friend from the short week) to tell you about the time I think my HP laptop was compromised at the factory!
