As a member of SWIFT’s (Students with an Interest in the Future of Technology) intern board, I helped put together a beginner friendly penetration-testing competition known as SCARE (SWIFT Crack Attack Root Event). The format was capture-the-flag (CTF) style. The theme was that a witch had turned all the competitors into frogs, so they had to use penetration-techniques to capture all the flags ...

Docker Volumes Docker volumes are used as persistent storage for containers to allow data to be stored even if those containers are stopped or deleted. This type of storage is separate from bind mounts and tmpfs mounts. Bind mounts are another form of persistent storage for docker containers. They depend on the host machine’s file system and OS, while volumes are “completely managed by Docker...

Background I was setting up Docker containers in WSL2 and wanted to access a self-hosted web service from my local network but was unable to connect to it. After speaking with my mentor, he showed me that it was because WSL2 required port forwarding. By default, WSL2 has “a virtualized ethernet adapter with its own unique IP address” (Microsoft Learn). This virtual ethernet adapter is hidden b...
