• Boosting Your Terminal Productivity: Shell GPT

    As developers, we spend a significant amount of time in the terminal, executing commands, writing scripts, and trying to solve problems. But, how many times have you found yourself stuck, trying to remember the correct syntax or flag for a command, or spending hours looking for a specific code snippet?

    sgpt "nginx default config file location" # -> The default configuration file for Nginx is located at /etc/nginx/nginx.conf.

    sgpt "docker show all local images" # -> You can view all locally available Docker images by running: docker images

  • From research to practice: I created a portal to run virtual machines with vulnerabilities

    Hello, Habr. I have been involved in vulnerability research for many years and have realized that it is a global and dynamic field. It's impossible to describe it in just one book. Every day, I gain new knowledge about technologies, as well as their security flaws.

    For me, the main source of knowledge is reports from other researchers in this field. When reading reports, I find interesting techniques that I later apply in my work. Usually, it's not enough to just read the report to understand the root cause of a vulnerability. That's why I started simulating situations in which the described vulnerability may appear. I began creating virtual machines with vulnerable web pages. Initially, I published them in my Telegram channel, but it was inconvenient since virtual machine images weigh around 1GB. People had to download the image and install it in VirtualBox.

    Therefore, it was decided to develop a portal where users could run virtual machines with vulnerable pages with just one click. After many months of development, I am pleased to introduce the website hackerhub.pro. On the website, you can run virtual machines and hack them. Tasks are provided in the CTF format, where you receive a flag upon successful hack. When submitting a flag, you are offered to specify the difficulty of the virtual machine, which will be helpful to other users.

    The website is ready for use, but there is still much work ahead. Since there is no paid content on the website, I would be very grateful for material support in developing the resource.

  • Mail.ru Cloud Solutions announces Mail.ru owned solution for automating Hybrid Cloud deployments based on AWS



    Mail.ru Cloud Solutions (MCS) has launched a new solution to enable Russian companies, as well as international companies operating in Russia, to automatically deploy federated Kubernetes clusters simultaneously using Amazon Web Services (AWS)and MCS resources.

    MCS will enable enterprise businesses operating in Russia to use hybrid cloud architectures across both providers. This solution will automate Kubernetes cluster management in MCS and AWS using Kubernetes Federation, which allows clients to deploy clusters simultaneously on MCS and AWS. The application management layer will be run within Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon EKS).

    MCS customers will be able to create a hybrid cloud with the help of a solution tested and meeting the standards of both providers. A VPN between two cloud infrastructures will be automatically provided by MCS to account for a secure communication channel, which increases federation security. The solution enables simple deployment of the federated Kubernetes clusters by automatic means.
