My son is taking a cybersecurity class at the career center, he is normally a C/D student - straight A's in cybersecurity.
He had a pop quiz today and he was like dude, these things are so hard. I was like - "OK just fire off the quiz questions to me."
Mason: "Whats telnet port?"
Me instantly: "23"
Pop3 / 110
RDP? 3389
FTP? 20/21
DNS? 53
HTTP? 80
HTTPS? 443
Mason: "alright tough one... what steps would you do if you couldn't RDP to a server?"
Me: "port scan, is it open? No? Firewall issue or RDP isn't enabled on that system or... using old version of RDP due to CredSSP."
Mason: "OK, you the goat. Dad, you actually know your stuff."
"And you can too, just keep going dude, I started from the same point you did, all about stacking that knowledge."
