The Cyber Mentors: CTF Walkthrough: DEF CON Edition

www.tcm.rocks/certs-y - Sharpen your CTF abilities with the TCM Security Academy! Learn the cybersecurity skills you need to be successful.

Join Carlo from TCM Security for a walkthrough of several challenges that were originally part of the Noob Village CTF we recently did at DEF CON.

You'll see how to:

1.) Identify and decode a ROT13/Caesar cipher using contextual clues and CyberChef
2.) Decrypt a Vigenère cipher by finding the correct key from the provided evidence
3.) Analyze a SAM-style credential dump, identify NTLM hashes, and recover a password using John the Ripper

Along the way, you'll see why understanding the evidence in front of you can be just as important as knowing which tool to use.

Did you participate in our Noob Village CTF? Let us know in the comments!

Remember to keep an eye out for future challenges. :)
