I've recently got to create a Linux machine for some scripts testing - and I've installed Debian on my VM. After year of working on Kali and long time ago, on Ubuntu - I must say Debian itself is like a rough diamond. I definitely advise someone just starting with Linux to leave Debian after they will feel more comfortable with some Ubuntu for example. Well, also for more advanced freaks - there is a project called Linux From Scratch ! PS. Never completed more than couple chapters from LFS :D

I did a quick look on available options and what I was able to establish: Kasm Workspaces has support for both Ubuntu 20.04 and 22.04 (https://www.kasmweb.com/docs/latest/install/system_requirements.html) You can download Ubuntu Desktop 20.04 from https://ubuntu.com/download/alternative-downloads You can also download Ubuntu Server 20.04 from https://ubuntu.com/download/server If there is no specific reason to use 20.04 I'd say go with newer 22.04.

Hi MacBobby Chibuzor ! I don't have a guide for that, but HTB have the Introduction to Lab Access help page. Quick summary - you are downloading the ovpn file from the HTB site, then on your Kali you are connecting to the VPN using sudo openvpn {PATH _TO_OVPN} . You can reach me out on the Discord, and we can go more step-by-step approach if above information are not sufficient.

Oh my god, finally I won't have to make it on my own every time :D https://blog.cyberethical.me/single-click-toc

Venketraman for some reason I didn't see the reply before. At the time of publishing this article, CTF was concluded, and it was only for the registered companies. See my write-ups here .

Well, that looks really impressive! What are the differences between Slickr and Canva/Stencil?

💡 Insightful!

Thanks! I did a test run of this setup this weekend on Business CTF and got some feedback if you are interested in.

That's a good question. I believe it is more important in some bigger or more significant projects, when you want to know if commits really come from a legitimate person. Because the private key (and passphrase) is known only to a specific person - by seeing that a commit is signed using that key, you can trust the content of this commit. Unless that person's private key is leaked and passphrase is cracked or obtained in other way, there is no possibility to create a malicious commit by an impersonating real author. Think about such big projects like Linux Kernels. These are wide used products and the opportunity to upload a backdoor or vulnerability can be really tempting for malicious actors.

Yeah, that fortunately should break the chain - because if someone carelessly enables content in unknown files is already vulnerable to other infections. Thanks for head-ups.
