Bandit level 0

Bandit 0
The goal of this level is for you to log into the game using SSH. The host to which you need to connect is bandit.labs.overthewire.org, on port 2220. The username is bandit0 and the password is bandit0. Once logged in, go to the Level 1 page to find out how to beat Level 1.

I'm using PuTTY in windows while doing this, in linux you can just use your terminal, your command will be something like this 

magic@WhiteRabbit:~$ ssh bandit0@bandit.labs.overthewire.org -p 2220
Okay so simple stuff. We use the ssh command, to connect to this host name with the "-p" indicating the port. Instructions for level 1:`

Level Goal

The password for the next level is stored in a file called readme located in the home directory. Use this password to log into bandit1 using SSH. Whenever you find a password for a level, use SSH (on port 2220) to log into that level and continue the game.

Commands you may need to solve this level

ls, cd, cat, file, du, find


Using username "bandit0".

The "ls" command stands for "list stuff" (or "list selection" if you insist on the proper terminology". I don't actually know what "cat" stands for but it's an old command and probably came from something like the word "concatenate" since it has to do with strings if this all helps you remember. The "cat" command lets you view the contents of the file your trying to open, kinda like if you change a file to .txt and look inside.

To get to the next level you type exit  and then ssh into the next level like so:


bandit0@bandit:~$exit
magic@WhiteRabbit:~$ ssh bandit1@bandit.labs.overthewire.org -p 2220

That's it, easy right? Glowfish Contrast

    You have shared here a nice article here about the linux commands to connect ssh using port number and linux screen command helps even if ssh session is terminated. Even its was simple command but it helped me to connect to port 😊. Keep sharing your excellent work.

Thoughts on ISSA talk on using AI to automate security

Recently I attended the ISSA presentation in MN, the description of it: The Power and Potential of Robotic Process Automation. And the Security Risks. Please join us on March 22 nd  as we explore the powerful and emerging Robotic Process Automation technology in regards to what IT security professionals need to know about RPA platforms . Robotic process automation (RPA) is a powerful and emerging technology that streamlines and standardizes many human user processes as well as harmonizes different systems across an organization’s environment. So what do IT security professionals need to know about RPA platforms? Very simply, it is a new attack vector and organizations need to start to understand their risk. Because RPA software interacts directly with business applications and mimics the way applications use and mirror human credentials and entitlements, this can introduce risks when the software robots automate and perform routine business processes across multiple
