MENTOR TRACK // M06
Think In Attack Paths
Stop asking 'what exploit'; start asking 'what leverage exists'.
Better questions
- What relationships exist between principals, hosts, and data?
- What trust exists and in which direction?
- What privilege boundary am I actually crossing?
- What configuration creates leverage (delegation, ACL, group nesting)?
- From here, what can I access, and what does that unlock next?
Combine to find a path
Information + permissions + identity + misconfiguration + network reachability + credentials + trust. Any single one is rarely the answer; the chain is.
Drill
Build a lab where no single vulnerability wins. Force yourself to draw the graph before touching keys.
