In this video we access the security of a door I found while out in the field..
We also discuss this doors roll in penetration testing scenarios inside shared facilities and off the street in various setups and attack paths.
Want to learn Black Teaming / Physical Pentesting?
This is a live over my shoulder shadowing of Embedded Recon portion of a physical pentest you would perform for black/red teaming engagements. Enjoy..
I cover analyzing your target
Recently hopped on the layer 8 podcast to talk about hacking and social engineering..

This video goes over a ton of options and demos on how to attack Pin Code MFA based RFID readers during a physical penetration test. Social Engineering attacks, Physical attacks and Electronic Attacks.
This is an interview I did with cover access team covering things for example:

Hacking is basically just abuse of foundational knowledge.
Seriously, its about foundational knowledge. So learn it!!
So the new kids don't come from CS and EE backgrounds as often anymore.
With
just surface level attack knowledge you might be able to hack at an
intermediate level and than one day you will hit a wall and that will be
your hacking knowledge failing to propel you further, due to lack of
foundational knowledge letting you see the unseen. We need to fix this.
The
kids never listen but I always scream it from the mountain tops. and
then I hear cries that they didn't go to school so poor them its not
their fault right? Wrong, it is your fault because information is free
cheap and in abundance, but at least your interested so cheers to that,
lets move forward.
There is an easy fix to this dilemma
You
don't need a CS or EE degree because you will self teach one in 1/4 the
time frame without curriculum bloat. (universities are inefficient)
Instead we learn relevant foundational skills to your career, interests,
objectives so you can progress quicker. You need to learn math? No
problem khan academy.. You need to learn about network protocols or
programming no problem there are full YouTube playlists / books / labs
for this that are better then university classes by far
The Fix:
Choose
a foundational item of interest and roll with it daily, this can even
be as little as just 20 minutes a day with your morning coffee. Sadly
that's more efficient then a university class lol
Base your choice 75% off your interest and 25% off what you actually might use it for.. Lets give a few examples
1.
Programming - You can use programming in literally every single part of
infosec. Pick a general purpose language like "Python" to learn and
code useful things.. Or a specific language if you have a specific
interest for example, "solidity" if in blockchain, or "C/C++" if doing
exploit dev / Reversing
2. Assembly /
Computer Architecture - Choose this if you have any need / want to dive
into reverse engineering, exploitation or even old school game dev
3.
Hardware / Electronics stuff - Choose this if you want to work on fun
projects and see how those 0's and 1's function while using your general
purpose code do neat things as a way to progress into more IOT /
Hardware hacking etc. This could be as simple as buying some arduino
kits / books and learning about circuits and creating them and building
devices etc
4.
Protocols Protocols Protocols... Learn all about network protocols and
how they function and how to interact with them and send raw sockets
and assemble various protocols from standard network protocols to
Bluetooth zigbee, blockchain, sub-ghz etc Scapy anyone?
5. You can choose any other foundational thing you feel that is holding you back maybe Linux cmdline?
Choose
1 thing and spend 6 - 18 months daily learning a bit and playing with
it each day, building things with it and coding things related to it etc
In this video we run through creating Keygens from binaries to bypass
software restrictions using AI prompts where relevant to help us code
our own keygens and understand algorithms.
