You already are, you just don’t know it yet

Day 1 building a C program (FileID) that identifies a file's true type by reading its first few bytes (its magic byte signature). The "printf("x ", buffer[i]);" is just confirming that the fread() function was working correctly. Most important thing I need to implement tomorrow: -A signature table (I'm too n00b to create my own dictionary so looking for other way). Read so much today, im probably going to forget a lot of if but i'll keep tabs open to revisit tomorrow.

Any Detection Engineers or Threat Hunters want to come on an episode of DE&TH Diaries?? Would be awesome, please let me know 🙏 #DFIR

Today, the FBI is announcing Operation Riptide, an ongoing, coordinated law enforcement campaign targeting cybercriminal actors and the key services they rely on—their infrastructure, their tools and services, their communications platforms, and their money. Operation Riptide is a collective effort that implements the priorities set out in Executive Order 14390 and the National Cyber Strategy. In recent weeks, the FBI carried out a broad range of enforcement actions against cyber threat actors, serving search warrants, securing indictments, arresting suspects, and dismantling criminal infrastructure. This marks the beginning of a focused, sustained 60-day national effort. Cybercrime carries real-world consequences, and the FBI remains committed to disrupting malicious cyber activity and holding cybercriminals accountable.

Besides this CS50 course, what’s an effective way to progress in C besides potentially contributing to an open source project? (My intention isn’t to be some crazy C programmer)

Earned my Investigating Windows Endpoints (Gold) credential from @13CubedDFIR . Amazing training. #DFIR #DigitalForensics
