This Week’s Recap

3/7/2022

  • Created an index for book 1 and 2 of GCIH
  • Felt pretty good about the material and decided to take a practice test.
  • This was my first time taking a SANS exam with the new testing UI, it was fantastic compared to the old one.

3/8/2022

  • Created an index for GCIH book 3
  • Tabbed out all of the books

3/9/2022

  • Watched this crash course on golang.
  • My goal is to spend the rest of 2022 sharpening my python skills and 2023 to start learning a compiled language. I was thinking of learning C but I will probably end up learning Golang instead. It seems really fun.
  • Finished creating an index for the rest of the GCIH books using my SansTerminalIndexer program.

3/10/2022

  • Watched @rybaz give a talk about pentesting a decentralized network.
  • Created an outline for my talk at Wild West Hackin Fest. This is going to be a very very strange talk but should be very entertaining.
    • Are you going to WWHF? If so let me know on twitter

  • Took my second GCIH practice exam and scored an 81%. Not too happy with this score (especially since I made an 86% on the last one where I didn’t use an index…) but I have high hopes for the exam. My goal is to score 90% or above.
  • Scheduled my exam for 4/19/2022
