Its things like this that got me into computers as a child in the 80s. There was like this secret world of PCs that the casual user never would experience. Whether it was just pirating software or hacking into networks it made you feel like absolutely anything is possible you just had to acquire the knowledge for it. Even to this day with how streamlined the modern PC experience is there is still a hidden world filled with programs and operations that even a well versed daily PC user has no clue they exist and I absolutely love it!
same bro.. my first pc ran DOS, and my class had two apple IIe's.. meaning i have never liked windows, learned to program in BASIC. i guess some folks like being sandboxed in by their OS under the guise of "security", but everyone should have the option to take control of their PC
Even thought the creators of the language said in their forum "please don't create malware with Nim" ... thanks for the video. It's nice when the language gets some attention. It is very nice, especially for the people who love Python.
Dude I love your content. You go very deep with basic language that takes me step by step. Good job and keep up the hard work :). Just want to ask you, why don't you make videos about cloud security. I know it is a massive topic, and I would love watching more about it, especially from you.
Any language than can be compiled into native executable (with relatively smallish runtime) will be used to write malwares. In the past: asm, C/C++, delphi. Now what: go, rust, nim, D?
Writing malware is easy. In an airgapped network, deploy AV, EDR, and IPS+IDS to a couple of VMs and at a gateway. That takes maybe 1 day. Now you have a lab. Write custom malware, deploy, and see what gets caught. Don't even need to be complicated malware, just basic functions that do what you want it to do. Now, be creative in how you obfuscate its code and operations. Live off the land. On one red team, I got Mimikatz to slip right past their EDR simply by prefixing the PowerShell with 200 MB of comments. It's too large to analyze, so the EDR didn't bother. A few months ago, I got a basic reverse shell to work by having the code hide itself in new LNK files that pulled the rest of the code from environment variables.
I’ve been studying exploit dev for the last month or so, I already have programming experience and work in cyber. I picked up Maldev Academy yesterday, and feel like it is going to give me a years worth of experience in just a couple weeks by how in-depth it is. It’s expensive, but I justified the cost by thinking about how many hours I’d spend researching to find all of the same info. The framework they give you for learning maldev is amazing.

@@rxtechandtrading lifetime access is $499, with Johns discount code it was $450. IMO I think it's very good. Like I said in my comment above, you can find all of the info from doing your own research, but the time save this gives is worth it.

I'm not a fan of malware (for obvious reasons), but if people will start learning Nim because of it, maybe they will see all that's good about Nim outside of it's offensive application. Good Video, as usual.
@@scootergirl3662 when I was younger I was into all things strategic warfare, biological warfare, WMD, stuff like that... it got to a point where I had downloaded every piece of literature that places like think tanks working for the US government, Janes, Los Alamos Laboratories and that famous Russian Biopreparat scientist defector allowed to leak in the public domain(I am not from the States but we are allied close enough that I still thank my lucky stars for not ending up in Guantanamo...)... I don't know why others study malware but I just love me some forced complex system disassembly... a string of code bringing a whole system down? I get off on that!!! I also once cried when I accidentally suffocated a praying mantis I had caught in a jar... holes in the lid, y'all... holes in the lid...
I have been wanting to learn NIM for a while. I might try to use it for my upcoming OSEP (I know that they want me to use python and C# but I don't think it matters.).
This is a nice video on how to read code manuals. A big thing I wish I was taught earlier is how to not rely on examples of code and be able to know what to do from the manuals.
on linux you can type --help after any command to get some help/optional switches/examples.. or put "man" before the command to see the full manual.. i copy the important stuff to the mousepad so i can refer back to it easily
First: do not use common required APIs, use something exotic that does same work. Make malware work slowly, do not trigger suspicious behavior. All that usual stuff is tracked by AV software, so do not use it. Use some zero day exploit, do not mass stuff, do slow polymorphic or metamorphic code encryption. But best way: if you can do all of it find legal job, get money there.
Seeing from the comments I can see anybody has no idea how to evade anti viruses really. So here is a hint Obfuscation is the key... we encrypt the strings compress them... And Change methods name into random string arrays, adding dummy codes, masking data... etc. Thats the most basic. The advanced obfuscation requires subjects like anti debug and anti tampering the most important of all inventing your own compression algorithms...
If I write a good App, it feels good to know it's out there providing values to end users. If I spend same amount of time writing a piece of malware, then it gets patched, as if never existed, it'll be feelsbadman. So, I don't know... Cool knowledge though.
lol, I don't know why but hearing anyone talk about this stuff (MalDev) enthusiastically from _this_ perspective is funny to me. I've learned all those things over the years for completely different reasons, in modifying games I encounter lots of stupid anti-debug tricks and have to learn the same craft as malware authors to circumvent the anti-debug surrounding a lot of games DRM. I don't even have any interest in pirating games, but that shit gets in the way 😕
