So if you have got your degree, or you are looking to get your degree and want some foundational training, you are probably looking for a reliable, easy way to learn about cyber security. This is partly because the field is literally changing day by day. The field is also vast, we are yet to see a single person that is the all powerful master of all that is Cyber Security. Universities are providing certifications for these roles but with the amount of students in this field, the more knowledge you know, the better your job opportunities.

Or rather it finds me multiple passwords corresponding to 2 users that don’t work anyway (with msfconsole)…I don’t know what to do If I use the user and psw provided to me in the resources and try to bruteforce both ssh and smb it returns nothing. I have tried connecting in ssh with Kira and LoveYou1 credentials but it doesn’t work, I also tried on SMB but nothing.
