Katthaj left the server and blocked me on Discord, so I guess we'll continue without him ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Hey! I saw your reply, but I've been busy since then. Just wanted to apply with this first character (I'll get the longer infosec sheet done in the next day or 2) and reaffirm my interest in both this RP and your offer to go over what the real field looks like!

____________________________________________________________________________

Class
Hacker

Handle
Tagg

Name
Unknown

Origin
Canada

Organizations
(Previously) Jasper: A small group known for exploiting security gaps in medium-large fintech corporations and municipal governments, particularly where corruption is suspected. Although they generally steal little to no assets, at least one prominent board member or other standing authority has been replaced following the hack. Tagg is suspected of playing various, but no major roles in several hacks executed a couple years prior.

(Currently) Hermes: A larger group than Jasper, they typically deal in government leaks. However, they’ve lived up to their name- causing both amusement and outrage— with a healthy number of gadget and appliance hacks. Although harmless enough and even beneficial in exposing security gaps, end users have been less than thrilled. However, a year ago, successful probing of America’s power grid allowed them to cause a temporary black out in major cities across the States.

Known Details
Tagg portrays himself as generic mischievous gamer among online friends. Maintaining a chatty and carefree character, he often tosses around pop culture references and is known to spam one to many emoticons. His online friends and acquaintances are liable to receive messages at all times of the day/night. While many have been able to deduce he’s in his mid 20s and possibly an army brat, a select few online friends are privy to the information that he currently lives alone with a cat dubbed Ghost.

Just to ease any concerns, I don't expect any of you to run that in order to continue. You're absolutely free to because it does work and is completely nonmalicious, but I completely understand if you aren't willing to. I actually wrote the original as an "introduction to cyber security" program a little while back for college students interested in jumping into the field, and modified the story for this RP (you can find the original on Github if you look hard enough). Worst case scenario, OffByNone solves this puzzle. I do think you'd enjoy it, so you're free to look through the code to make sure that it's safe (since it's not doing anything tricky, mostly just printing text to a command prompt window).

In fact, you can cheat and solve it completely without running it at all (I was going to make cheating hard to pull off but that would have made it look really sketchy), but that's less fun =P. But if you don't want to or don't want to go through the trouble of using Python, feel free to have your character refuse and None will go ahead and run it for the lolz if nobody else wants to.

I can post the next recap and then we'll do the next wave of hacking attempts. After those, we can go ahead and start the blue team side of things (so CS's for those would be nice). I'm envisioning about one blue team post a week each if that works for you, and as they begin to pick up on the trail, our hackers start to figure out that someone is trying to sniff them out. They can play a few games of cat and mouse, and you guys will really be the ones who decide who wins in the end.

Still need to research and learn for the attack post. Here's the character sheet I meant to finish weeks ago though. Hopefully, this or next week I can get the post in. But it'll more likely be soon after I see the first one.

Class
InfoSec

Handle
Clickstream

Name
Skye Lassiter

Origin
United States

Organizations
Current contract- Red Zone Inc.
Previous contracts- White Ridge Analytics Inc., U.S. Army, Ray Solutions

Known Details
Since graduating four years ago from the California public university system in comp sci, Skye has fallen into independent contracting. These have ranged from networking to programming and web design to analysis in function. His contracts have eventually led him to the East coast, where he currently resides working for Red Zone Inc. He has done little to put roots down, and generally engages in his few hobbies or hangs out with a handful of coworkers or friends after work.

His primary hobby is broadening his skills in security to land a more permanent security job. This is fast followed by by his avid news tracking of security exploits and patches. In accordance, he does have articles printed out and mapped with red string for wall art. But somehow, the hobby that always seems to take up the most time is making montage game edits for his friends. It probably has to do with helping them collect footage and getting sidetracked.

To his coworkers, Skye is known as being laidback and easy-going. HRs are quick to recognize him as a team player. Always on time with a good attitude and an even better work ethic, he has no shortage of professional references. Comparatively, anyone who gets close enough to be a friend realizes that he has a competitive streak, and sometimes the spunk to go with it. Although he's unable to hold down a relationship for more than a few months, he has an affinity for sprite and pretzels.

I think it's fair game for anyone after the recap. I'll make one for OBN but don't feel like you need to wait for me.
