    Linux Malware

    I downloaded a malware binary for Linux lately and unpacked it. Tried to run it as root, but it didn't work. Googled for 2 hours and found out that instead of /usr/local/bin, the malware unpacked to /usr/bin, for which it doesn't have any write permissions. I found a patched .configure and .make...

    Please can some one explain this diagram ?

    This is a horribly overcomplicated diagram - I love it. I'm going to steal it (alongside Jarrel's great explanation) to freak out my class :D

    I'm getting disillusioned

    I'll chime in here with my two cents. I agree that there are many people who want to cut corners and just get certified - mastering a subject matter area is irrelevant to them. However, I've seen this since the 1990s when braindumps and "paper MCSEs" were rampant. At the same time, I think...

    Cybersecurity Employability

    Employability is not directly correlated to certification. There are people who are highly certified that can't land a job because of other deficiencies, and people who do not have any certifications that can easily land a job. Remember that the primary value of certification is that it...
