This is going to sound fishy.

Recently getting into cybersecurity things and have been pretty interested in looking at malware and maybe making some myself to get the hang of it. Do you guys know any good repositories with malware to learn from? For example, if I wanted to make a credential stealing program, there's a lot of different programs that may have credentials that are valuable. Or, maybe writing a keylogger? I took a look at a rust crate that can record keystrokes but has kind of a weird (or at least not as easy) type system because of different OS implementations, but how do different types of malware consolidate those differences?

I guess the broader question I'm getting at specifically is looking at how already made programs get around different technical obstacles like detailed above.

Thanks

I went to my local library today and noticed there's a lot of networking, cybersecurity, tcp/ip books from the early 2000s. Now, I want more modern versions of these types of handbooks. Does anyone know any good modern handbooks that deal with networking or network security standards?

Thanks :)

I wanted to get others' takes but it seems like the only real way to get a non-spying car is to get an older car without any sort of telemetrics. I saw a video about different car companies' security policies, well specifically the new Mental Outlaw video, and it just blew me away how even our cars aren't safe. Anyone got tips for how to anonymize their car?

I've seen a lot of different enterprise and personal use distros for servers, but what do you guys use?

I'm planning on using Debian but was wondering if there are any other good free options to consider.

I've been looking around to find a good, privacy respecting way to sync my messages between phones. I decided I'm going to use SyncThing so I don't have to mess around with a server. The only problem with this is that I haven't been able to find any apps that work on modern Android that routinely backup and import messages from a file/folder into the messages database. Does anyone know any app that might do this?

I recently purchased a domain for myself as a why-the-fuck-not purchase and I need some ideas for what to put on there. Some ideas so far include: Small Blog Personal S/FTP server to sync back to Minecraft server

Does anyone have other ideas? Thanks :)

Smooth breath

I beset from your bated breath

Unless the stress that's given to me clear

Resides unfound and unclear

The key to my restitution lies in recognition

Opaque and sticky, defiance. Then remission

Upset and overreliant on bad positions

The lever's balance is set on a dud pivot

Problems unseen stay while shit thickens

While the root is left untapped

The branch kindles

When the words barely whisper

And the songs known forgotten

When the seldom well wished

And a stone throw's the bottom

When the once well trodden

Is soiled down and sodden

Accept the well wishes of ones who once wished

And song without a singer like food without dish

And sing those well wishes to your brother on a lake

Stoning throws, hitting water, showing off for the sake

I've been trying to find something that allows me to see performance visualizations in my rust programs, but I haven't found any so far. I'm looking for something that's like SnakeViz in Python, but for Rust. If there's a better way to get about doing this, I'm all ears.
