whois

First and foremost, I am dad to triplet boys, who gave me the opportunity to become something great; as well as someone who has the potential, drive, and the ability that is required to make a future for myself and my children. Highly capable SE, observing and analyzing social behavior; 10+ exciting years of social engineering, rapport building, and risk taking experiences. I found it necessary to go out and find the information in order to learn the things I am interested in.

Several of traits that are self-taught outside of IT are, portrait photography, and woodworking. In both instances I used my ability to focus as well as resources from internet, to learn the skills necessary to make a grind for myself.

I’ve now had several small business ventures as well as work full time as a cabinetmaker at T&T Caseworks. I was sought out and offered a job, having never stepped in a cabinet-shop before; where I quickly David Cannan 2

established myself as a highly effective employee, by challenging myself and tirelessly aiming for quality.

Looking to shift my career path into IT, I believe that the amalgam of my experiences are best suited for that of a risk assessment, although open to other position opportunities. I am currently studying for the CompTIA Security+ & Juniper (JNCIA) certifications. Skills, framework, and method.

A curious and creative, critical thinker. Excellent solving skills, and a goal oriented learner. Have an understanding of security methodologies and big picture ideas. An an excellent learner, in that I absorb any knowledge that I can manage to be exposed to. My next step in life is to proceed in finding a job that will help me grow my knowledge and meet other likeminded people.

Great with Linux command line, and understand how the Linux filesystems are structured.

Top notch communication skills; patience, empathy, and understanding. Self-aware and capable of challenging own my beliefs (mental flexibility). I know the basics of coding languages, come to know some: BASH, Python, C++, HTML/CSS, JS, JSON, as well as how to format things like YAML and Dockerfile. Creating Practical Experience for myself build

target and replicate environments to hack.

Implementing attacks using ESP32 microcontrollers at home, to build target and replicate environments to hack.

Example Setting: 1 host device, and 2 or more clients (host programmed to have a WPA2/hidden network & clients communicate with each other). David Cannan 3

Example Attack: Preforming a beacon attack to retrieve the hosts hidden SSID. Using the gathered information to spoof/intercept handshakes from the client devices and crack the hash to gain the credentials needed to access the host from the threat device.

Result: Access has been gained to the network; from here ARP or DNS spoofing can be implemented to direct traffic and phishing can begin. Building Labs in “the cloud”

Using Linode Cloud Computing (and other SaaS) for building and securing my domains and servers behind services like Cloudflare.

Allows me to practice penetration testing from the comfort of any browser that I have access too.

Spinning up Linux servers to learn backend and teach myself how to create and manage VMs.

Using Docker Container’s to host entire networks all on one server and practicing my attacks.

Portainer, Kasm, Kali Linux, Parrot OS, Metasploitable, WordPress, Tor, etc… Reverse Engineering IoT hardware to learn about UART, serial connections and data streams.

Currently learning about onboard memory and recovering firmware from everyday devices with the goal obtaining root privileges.

OSINT and Recon

Google dork and scraping APIs with tools like Maltego. I’ve had several successful OSINT searches and found information on targets (gov salaries, police records, and property searches) for friends and family members. Ran home network through vulnerability scans using tools like NMAP and Metasploit and patched the problems that I found.

Familiar with Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) and web application attacking. David Cannan 4

Successfully “hooked” browsers by copying trusted HTML pages and injecting BeEf’s JavaScript webhook.

Stress tested and exploited my own domains and servers through BurpSuite. WI-FI Data Collection

WI-FI is so open air, it’s important to be precise when throwing out attacks, the Wi- Fi Pineapple is great for that, makes EvilTwinPortals super easy and AP enumeration is incredibly easy with its GUI.

Built a Pwnagotchi from a Raspberry Pi, great for generating WI-FI hashes. Built a WarDriving rig from an ESP8266 and a GPS module designed for a drone. Allows me to plot Wi-Fi signals with its GPS coordinates. Great for collecting the data needed in order to overlay WI-FI targets on a map (using Python). Home lab (Home network)

Flashed my home router with open source firmware ( OpenWRT) Setup multiple VLANs which are categorized by device. Followed the rule of least privilege.

Hardened default passwords and hostnames.

Adjusted wireless signal power to prevent outside connections. Synology NAS server running docker to host things like Minecraft servers, and hosting other in house hosting.

Assembled Windows Active Directory and Domain Controller. Setup an environment in a as VMs, using Windows Server 2019 as domain controller and Windows 11 clients.
