Learned about Passive Recon which is the process of gathering information on an intended target to prepare for an attack without alerting the target. This can be done using resources such as Search engines and databases to find publicly available information, as well as Leaks that target has sustained.
Week 5: Debian-Single-user-mode-Hack
Reflection: Most of my own passwords are not guessable as they are randomly generated. Due to random generation I don't use repeat passwords. I keep my passwords as secure as I can but there is always the possibility that some services do not keep our passwords safe. I could improve my password tradecraft by increasing how many characters my passwords contain to make them even more difficult to crack. My password managers and randomized passwords have greatly increased my personal password security.
