THE CYBERFORGE β DAY 14/60 π
Today I learned DNS with TryHackMe β DNS in Detail.
Covered DNS hierarchy, gTLD/ccTLD, subdomains, DNS resolution, and A, AAAA & CNAME records.
Also completed the practical tasks. π

π DAY 2: ONE LOCK ISN'T ENOUGH
Multi Factor Authentication proves it's really you: something you know (password), something you are (face, fingerprint). Even if your password leaks, attackers still can't get in.

π THE CYBERFORGE β DAY 12/60
βStrengthened my networking foundation today:
β’ UDP & TCP
β’ OSI & TCP/IP models
β’ Ports & Subnetting
β’ TryHackMe practice
βRevised earlier concepts too. Still building! π

Day 10/60 #the_cyberforge
βKey takeaways:
β’ Client vs Server: Role depends on software, not hardware.
β’ ISPs: Connect LANs using cellular, fiber, or satellite.
β’ Fiber Grid: Undersea/underground cables form the internet backbone.
βOnto Day 11! π₯
#60daysofcyberforge
CyberForge Day 08 re-do! βοΈ No shortcuts in mastering networking foundations.
Covered the OSI vs TCP/IP models, watched Data transform into Segments β‘οΈ Packets β‘οΈ Frames β‘οΈ Bits, and played with command-line switches for Ping and Dig.
Ready for Day 09! π
#TechJourney#Networking
CyberForge Day 8: Networking Bedrock π
Hit @TryHackMe's Intro to LAN rooms today.
β’ IP vs MAC: IP = phone number (can change), MAC = physical fingerprint (can be spoofed).
β’ Protocols: ARP maps IP to MAC; DHCP automates IPs.
β’ Verified connections via ping.

@MicrosoftLearn π» PowerShell Enumeration:
β’ Tested it hands-on! My lab environment runs Windows 10 IoT Enterprise.
β’ Ran network commands and saw listening ports like 445 & 135 wide open. Real eye-opener for hidden entry points!
On to Day 7! π #CyberSecurity#the_cyberForge (4/4)
Day 06/60 #CyberForge Challenge π³π¬π οΈ
Massive day! Cleared the Computer Types lab on TryHackMe/Medium + bagged my @MicrosoftLearn "Explore Computers" achievement badge.
Dug into computer history and ran some deep PowerShell labs. Thread π (1/4)
@MicrosoftLearn π§ History & Hardware:
β’ Mastered the 4 pillars: Processor, Memory (RAM), Storage, & Network adapters.
β’ Learning how scientists used old magnetic memory before HDDs/SSDs exists is mind-blowing. Kudos to those early scientists ooo! (3/4)
@tryhackme 𦴠The Motherboard:
β’ Think of it like a human skeleton. It holds everything together and acts as the communications highway so the CPU, RAM, and storage can talk to each other.
On to Day 6! π #CyberSecurity#TryHackMe#the_cyberforge (3/3)
@tryhackme π§ CPU & RAM:
β’ The CPU runs on a strict Fetch, Decode, and Execute cycle to process commands.
β’ RAM is temporary memoryβit holds what you're doing right now and wipes when power cuts. Long-term files stay safe on the hard drive. (2/3)
Day 05/60 #CyberForge Challenge π³π¬π οΈ
Going under the hood today! Completed the @TryHackMe "Inside a Computer System" room.
Before analyzing malware or forensics, you have to know how the hardware actually talks. Breakdown π (1/3)
