Coding in Cybersecurity: Beyond the Tools and Scanners | HackTheBox Coding Challenges

Описание: In this video, I’ll show you how to solve real coding challenges from HackTheBox using Python. If you're a cybersecurity enthusiast who wants to go beyond tools and GUIs, this one’s for you. This video focuses on coding-driven CTFs, especially those that require careful parsing, algorithmic logic, or exploit proof-of-concepts. The challenges I solve in this post are retired challenges and are listed below:
HackTheBox Threat Index
HackTheBox Oddly Even
HackTheBox Reversal
HackTheBox Addition
HackTheBox Triple Knock
HackTheBox MiniMax
HackTheBox Honeypot
HackTheBox BlackWire
HackTheBox Insane Bolt
HackTheBox Ghost Path
