Bash isn’t just an interface to your daily laptop - it’s a weapon. In this hands-on workshop, we’ll push bash beyond its typical use, leveraging it for hacking, data processing, automation, and real-world security applications. Whether you’re crafting exploits, analyzing massive datasets, or automating reconnaissance, this session will equip you with the skills to turn bash into your ultimate hacking tool.
- Master advanced bash scripting techniques for automation, and hacking.
- Process terabytes of leaked password data and uncover real-world security insights.
- Use bash to manipulate and extract intelligence from logs, network traffic, and system artifacts.
- Generate graphs, automate reports, and convert file format entirely from the command line.
- Learn how to replace GUI-based tools with bash scripts for speed and stealth.
By the end of this workshop, you’ll be able to:
- Automate and accelerate security tasks with powerful one-liners and scripts.
- Use bash to analyze, manipulate, and exploit data in security research.
- Apply bash in unconventional ways, from image processing to document forensics.
