If you follow this blog, you know that I did an article on the first stable release of Namp http://www.pccybertek.com/2010/01/nmap-5-20-released yesterday. Now that it has been out for a week, Fydor has already released another update, Namp 5.21 which is also a stable
release and not a beta. It’s mainly just a bug fix release. So I have updated the download section here with a link to the 5.21 release, which is on the right column about 3/4 of the way down the page. My download link is directly to the file on the insecure.org website or you can go to the Nmap download page yourself.

But I don’t want to just tell you about the update, I’d like to offer you some more since you took the time to stop by here. So here is a link to Iron Geek’s Baisc Nmap Tutorial video. And if already know the basics and would like to move on to some more advanced lesson, here is Iron Geek’s Nmap Video Tutorial 2: Port Scan Boogaloo Happy port knocking.

If you are running Word Press, or are just thinking about using it, you owe it to yourself to give this site a look.

Even though it’s only been up for maybe 2 months, there’s a lot of great content. There’s plenty of How-To videos, for beginners to advanced users. There’s videos about administration, set-up, widgets, publishing, media, plugins, themes, custom design, and more. There is also a section of videos from Word Camp.

I wanted to write about Word Press TV when it first went live, but I haven’t actully spent any amount of time on it, untill recently. Most of them are using vimeo to host their videos, so the quality is execlent. Theses aren’t some junky, pixalated Youtube videos. They are high quality and when I viewed them with HD turned on, the screen captures of in the how-to videos was perfect and crisp and easy to read the all the text in the videos.  Even when not in full screen or HD you can read them easily. If only everyone made instructional videos at this quality. Check out the example below.

When it comes to hacking, video tutorials, this site is one of the best. Irongeek’s Hacking Illustrated Videos
    can be found at, where else, Irongeek.com
    There’s a lot of them and he has been making them himself for years. He also has a tutorial on how he makes the videos. This site isn’t the prettiest sight around but it more than makes up for its looks with great content. From the Basic Nmap Usage, Sniffing VoIP Using Cain, Metasploit Flash Tutorial, Using SysInternals’ Process Monitor to Analyze Apps and Malware, Creating a Windows Live CD for System Recovery and Pen-Testing with Bart’s PE Builder,
    and so many more. There’s bound to be something of interest to all but the most seasoned veterans.

    While Irongeek maybe best known for his video tutorials, he has also written some nice netowrk security articles. His latest, State Hacking/Computer Security Laws, is very informative and was posted at the end of December of 2007, so it’s current. How To Cyberstalk Potential Employers “This article is less diabolical than its title might imply. Essentially, I want to give the reader some tips for finding more information about a potential employer than the job listing may reveal.” And he does. It’s well written and I like his inclusion of screen shots.

    If irongeek.com only had the video section, that would be enough alone for me to recomend it. I’m sure he laid the ground work and inspired others to make hacking video tutorials. There’s also a couple scripts/apps that he wrote, some reviews, and don’t forget the clips of him working out. And if my word isn’t good enough, there’s also half a dozen campuses that use his material. And here’s a nice little link that shows you all the info that can be seen from your browser.

    This one is a keeper. Definitely worthy of a bookmark and some time for further exploration. I tip my proverbial hat to Iron Geek. Well done sir.
