7MS #350: Interview with Lewie Wilkinson of Pondurance

Today's featured interview is with Lewie Wilkinson, senior integration engineer at Pondurance. Pondurance helps customers improve their security posture by providing a managed threat hunting and response solution, including a 24/7 SOC. Lewie joined me via Skype to talk a lot about a topic I'm fascinated with: incident response! I had a slew of questions and topics I wanted to discuss, including:

  • Fundamentals of threat hunting

    • What is threat hunting?
    • What are the fundamentals to start mastering?
    • How can someone start developing the core skills to get good at it?
  • How can sysadmins/network admin, who have a busy enough time already just keeping the digital lights on, handle the mounting pressure to also shoulder security responsibilities as part of their job duties?

  • What training/cert options are good to build skills in threat hunting?

  • Lets say you know one of your users has clicked something icky and you suspect compromised machine/creds. You pull the machine off the network and rebuild it. How do you know that you've found/limited the extent of the damage?

  • Are attackers on networks typically wiping logs on systems as the bounce around laterally?

  • Anything to add to the low-hanging hacker fruit list?

  • Why is it so critical to not just have logs, but have verbose logs with rich data you need in an investigation?

  • When does it make sense to outsource some security responsibilities to a third party?

The very important Github issue that helped me better understand BPFs and WPA3 attacks TrustedSec article on WPA3 downgrade attacks

Hey friends, we’ve got a short but sweet tale of pentest pwnage for you today. Key lessons learned: Definitely consider BallisKit for your EDR-evasion needs If you get local admin to a box, enumerate, enumerate, enumerate!  There might be a delicious task or service set to run as a domain admin that can quickly escalate your privileges!

7MS #650: Tales of Pentest Pwnage - Part 65

Oooooo, giggidy! Today is (once again) my favorite tale of pentest pwnage. I learned about a feature of PowerUpSQL that helped me find a “hidden” SQL account, and that account ended up being the key to the entire pentest!  I wonder how many hidden SQL accounts I’ve missed on past pentests….SIGH! Check out the awesome BloodHound gang thread about this here. Also, can’t get Rubeus monitor mode to capture TGTs to the registry?  Try output to file instead: rubeus monitor /interval:5 /nowrap /runfor:60 /consoleoutfile:c:\users\public\some-innocent-looking-file.log In the tangent department, I talk about a personal music project I’m resurrecting to help my community.

7MS #649: First Impressions of Twingate

Today we take a look at a zero-trust / ditch-your-VPN solution called Twingate (not a sponsor but we’d like them to be)!  It also doubles nicely as a primary or backup connection for your DIY pentest dropboxes which we’ve talked about quite a bit here.  In other news, we’ve moved from Teachable to Coursestack, so if you’ve bought training/ebooks with us before, you should’ve received some emails from us last Friday and can access our new training portal here.  (If you THINK you should’ve received enrollment emails from CourseStack and didn’t, drop us a line here.) In the tangent portion of our program, I give a health update on my mom and dad, and talk about some resources I’m exploring to reduce stress and anxiety after what has been a tough week for many of us.

7MS #648: First Impressions of Level.io

Hey friends, today I’m sharing my first (and non-sponsored) impressions of Level.io, a cool tool for managing Windows, Mac and Linux endpoints. It fits a nice little niche in our pentest dropbox deployments, it has an attractive price point and their support is fantastic.
