You Should Know:
1. Preparing for Cybersecurity Meetups
- Check Event Details: Use `curl` to fetch event details (if API available):
curl -X GET "https://api.meetup.com/hack-the-box-meetup-france/events/308333475"
- Network Scanning (For CTF/Workshops):
nmap -sV -A meetup.com
2. OSINT Tools for Attendee Research
- Harvesting LinkedIn Profiles: Use theHarvester:
theHarvester -d esgi.fr -b linkedin
- Metadata Extraction from Event Images:
exiftool event_image.jpg
3. Hack The Box (HTB) Practice
- Connect to HTB VPN:
sudo openvpn your_htb_vpn.ovpn
- Active Machine Enumeration:
nmap -Pn -T4 10.10.10.0/24
4. Ransomware Fire Drill (Bonus)
- Simulate Ransomware Attack:
mkdir ransomware_drill && cd ransomware_drill echo "Malicious payload simulation" > fake_ransomware.txt chmod +x fake_ransomware.txt
- Recovery Practice:
tar -czvf backup_$(date +%F).tar.gz /critical_data
What Undercode Say:
- Linux: Always update before events (
sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade -y). - Windows: Use `PsExec` for remote admin tasks in labs.
- HTB: If stuck, `gobuster` for web dirs:
gobuster dir -u http://10.10.10.X -w /usr/share/wordlists/dirb/common.txt
- Prediction: Increased focus on AI-driven pentesting tools post-LeHACK 2025.
Expected Output:
- Event confirmation email (check spam with
grep "Hack The Box" /var/mail/$(whoami)). - HTB machine flags (e.g.,
THM{LeHACK_2025_Rocks}).
