Day 263: Professional Hacker Training

The only thing that happen today that was remotely interesting was the Hacking training I went in the evening. The guy who gave the class has 20 years of experience gave us a lot of insights

Among them are:
- Do not go and surf at questionable site. They could contain Ransomware. (Ransomware = a software design to encrypt your file system until you pay a fee to unlock it.. nasty stuff). There is a dangerous Ransomware called Locky which will encrypt all files and delete the original and will self destruct after finished.
- It is very easy to crack textbox username and password with a couple of free linux tools
- This is the best part. You can change the value of the payment gateway at your browser. You can actually give a value lower than what you spend.

Overall it was a good class... but it was just a slice. If you want more you need to pay the RM 5000 for the whole course which I doubt that my company is going to do that.
