Tight reporting timeframes may also produce difficulties. “Smaller organizations will struggle to comply within the timeframes...Larger organizations may struggle to comply based on complexity of the investigation," said @k8em0

The most important skill to ultimately learn in digital forensics is how to research new artifacts and perform necessary testing. The field moves too fast to expect everything to have already been accomplished for you.
Forensic pet peeve of the day. "Forensic guessing". If you don't know what an artifact means put in the work to figure it out! Ask colleagues, reach out on groups, test it yourself, but please please please stop guessing and presenting your guess as fact.

Linux forensics will always be my favorite thing, because inevitably I end up building a findings table named "angry admin or hacker?" which is just a series of cmds and args filled with profanity that could go either way.

By appending a VBScript to a DLL signed by Microsoft, you get an HTA (Html Application) polyglot that can bypass Applocker. This is still used in the wild.

Heh. I was often told I had a “bad attitude” and “was not a team player” when I expressed frustration at the stupid decisions company management was making. They just didn’t like people pointing out the emperor had no clothes.

Fun for targeting threat actors using Cobalt Strike servers with the leaked private keys. Also potentially fun for messing with the red team.
I made a small PoC. cs-mitm. py is a mitmproxy script that intercepts Cobalt Strike traffic, decrypts it and injects its own commands. In this video, a malicious beacon is terminated by sending it an exit command. The beacon uses one of the leaked private keys.

Exploitation gets cooler every year.
Linux kernel exploit technique idea: if you have an arbitrary kfree and need a leak - Use @vnik5287’s setxattr technique and block on the last byte of the copy. then, free the buffer and reallocate another object, unblock the copy and leak contents of the object using getxattr

Very kind words @bettersafetynet, thank you. I’d like to mention @strandjs — great practitioner, great human being, doing a lot of good in the community.
@hal_pomeranz is a stone cold killer on the keyboard, but is a legit boon to multiple fields of computing.
