Music

Speaking

Head to my business Web site for information on upcoming YouTube livestreams, training sessions and other speaking events.


Virtual Machines

Billy Madison
Billy Madison is a vulnerable virtual machine, hosted by Vulnhub. To successfully pwn the box, pentesters must undo modifications to the system and recover Billy’s 12th grade project. Otherwise Eric and his weasel laugh will take over Madison Hotels!

Tommy Boy

Tommy Boy is another vulnerable virtual machine, hosted by VulnHub and based one of my all-time favorite movies. To complete the CTF, pentesters must bring the Callahan Auto brakepad ordering system back online before the company goes out of business.
