This site is inspired greatly by . However, do not expect to see such great work here. This is just a place for me to accumulate my notes and thoughts. I do not plan on doing much in the way of explaining things. However, I do plan on creating another book that will provide more explanation on things via Hack the Box or other boot-to-root write ups.
This site is an accumulation of knowledge that I have acquire elsewhere. This means that much of this is not from my own head but gathered and placed here. I will do my best to have references to the original sources though I will not be sighting everything like this is a college essay.

This almost seems to be an obligatory of any "hacker" documentation so I will oblige. My name is Arron Patton and I go by man715 most places online. I initially started my hacking journey when I was in high school but stopped lost motivation and interest in later years. I'm not sure what happened or why I gave up but that seems to be a running theme in my life in general.
As of late my passion for technology and hacking has reemerged in my late 30's. My curiosity is running rampant. I have completed SANS GPEN, GSEC, and GCFE. As of now, I am also studying for the OSCP.
Some bullet point history:
13 Years in the United States Air Force as a Munitions System Specialist
Bachelor's Degree in English Education
Teaching was not for me
Systems Administrator and Endpoint Security Administrator
Why do I feel like creating this book? Quite simply for me. I am enjoying the process of learning and hacking into boxes on Hack the Box, TryHackMe, and in the OSCP Labs. I want to create a resource I can use to look back at the skills, tips, and tricks I am learning. Plus, I cannot remember everything and continuously googling for the same things over and over is a waste of time. There are some great resources out there like HackTricks and PentestMonkey, but I wanted something of my own. I wanted to create something that helps me solidify some of what I am learning and doing. Lastly, I hope that this resource can be of some help to someone else out there in the hactiverse.
Actions have consequences! Make sure you are willing to accept the consequences for your actions. Remember, play stupid games; win stupid prizes!
For those who need it spelled out: Don't do illegal things!
