7MS #688: Building a Pentest Training Course Is Fun and Frustrating
Today I talk about a subject I love while also driving me crazy at the same time: building a pentest training course! Specifically, I dissect a fun/frustrating GPO attack that I need to build very carefully so that every student can pwn it while also not breaking the domain for everybody else. I also talk about how three different flavors of AI failed me in solving a simple task.

7MS #687: A Peek into the 7MS Mail Bag – Part 5
Hi friends, we’re doing something today we haven’t done in a hot minute: take a dip into the 7MinSec mail bag! Today we cover these questions: If I’m starting a solo business venture as a security consultancy, is it a good idea to join forces with other solo security business owners and form a consortium of sorts? Have you ever had anything go catastrophically wrong during a pentest? Yes, and this is an important link in the story: https://github.com/fortra/impacket/issues/1436 What ever happened with the annoying apartment neighbor who stomped around like a rhino when you made any noise during COVID? What happened to the “difficult family situation” you vaguely talked about a few months ago that involved police and lawyers – did that ever get resolved?

7MS #686: Our New Pentest Training Course is Almost Ready
Oh man, I’m so excited I can hardly sleep. Our new three-day (4 hours per day) training is getting closer to general release. I talk about the good/bad/ugly of putting together an attack-sensitive lab that students can abuse (but hopefully not break!), and the technical/curriculum-writing challenges that go along with it.

7MS #685: The Time My Neighbor Almost Got Scammed Out of $13K
Today’s kind of a “story time with your friend Brian” episode: a tale of how my neighbor almost got scammed out of $13k. The story has a lot of red flags we can all keep in mind to keep ourselves (as well as kids/friends/parents/etc.) safer from these types of shenanigans.

7MS #681: Pentesting GOAD – Part 3
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.
