What? A while back, I posted on this thing that we’ve been doing, trying to help out with teaching teh cybers to high school students. We set up a virtual environment for the students, and I wanted (needed) to take some time to document it. Why? Well, because I’m way (WAY!) behind on documenting our setup, and someone needs to…
CTF Flag time
So, here’s my favorite flag from our most recent EnRichMinds CTF, and a clear example of ‘haxors gonna hack.’ Since we cover core linux concepts in some of our labs, we wanted to include some linuxy-type stuff, but fun it up and get the students thinking a bit about how sometimes it’s important to see things in a particular…

So, I’m a…
Out with the old. . .
Just a link to my old blog on blogspot. I’m putting it here as a reminder of how far I’ve come with regards to the cybers, and also to remind myself that even as a new noob — a n00b(n00b) if you will — I had some pretty good ideas and a decent grasp of some core infosec concepts. But…
