Prepare your Setup
Prepare your setup to eCPPTv2 certification.
Here I will explain my setup, for me, it works. I hope it will work for you too.
We know the basic access is through a VPN I configure my account on a router and connect a switch to It.
Local LAN for Exam Build
Router
This router will connect to my main router and firewall and I will configure the VPN connection to the Lab on it. I can get a more stable connection this way and avoid network/performance problems on the attacker machine.
Switch
Just a cheap unmanaged switch to connect all machines needed to perform the exam.
Buffer Overflows - Windows 7
Then I connected my Windows 7 machine dedicated to buffer overflows to the switch and my attack machine. Equipped with Immunity debugger and Mona.
And Ghidra in case I am stuck...
Attack Machine - Kali
Kali machine is fully updated, I know most people don't recommend this. After fully updating I start configuring all the Operating Systems and tools as I like.
I wrote a script to this for me, you can use it:
Cracking Machine - Debian
I've my cracking machine prepared with all wordlists, keys, hashes, rainbow tables, and all the tools needed to create new wordlists.
