Immunity!!!

Finally caught up, YEAY!!!! Ok so Last class we were taught about assembly and the program immunity. We were showed the immunity program by our teacher and he gave us a demo on how to use it. I didn't understand right away how to do it, even with the walk through I had troubles. Then I had a friend sit down with me and show me what I was looking for and explained what each step was doing. Once I figured out what to look for, where to start, what buttons to push, then it was pretty easy. I want to try more programs like this because it was fun. I heard that you can sign up at their website and they will allow you to try 22 more programs I think it was. So if I have time ill give it a try. till next time..

Python

Last week (i know still late:() we learned about Python which is a programming language that is used in a lot security tools today. He showed us some examples of the code then broke it down into 6 different types: strings, lists, dictionaries, tuples and integers/floats and showed use different examples of those a well. After that mt teacher started to talk more about what I know like conditional statements, loops and while/for statements. After that he explained how we can use Python code to receive information from websites. He then asked us to create a code that will communicate with a public server and had to get specific information like server banner, the date, and also a status code. I found it quite difficult but after had some class mates explain it to me a little more and I have a little bit of a better grasp at it. Till next time. TTYL  scott dawe
