    Course 25 - API Python Hacking | Episode 6: Privilege Modification and User Impersonation

    In this lesson, you’ll learn about:Programmatic Privilege ModificationHow to use the AdjustTokenPrivileges API to enable or disable specific privilegesUnderstanding the TOKEN_PRIVILEGES structure and how privilege attributes are modifiedEnabling critical privileges like SeDebugPrivilege to allow advanced system accessPreparing for Token ManipulationIdentifying a target process or user through window handles or process IDs (PID)Elevating your script’s permissions to allow interaction with protected system processesUnderstanding why privilege elevation is required before duplicating tokensToken Duplication ProcessUsing DuplicateTokenEx to create a new primary token from an existing processUnderstanding how duplicated tokens inherit the identity and permissions of the original userPreparing duplicated tokens for use in launching new processesLaunching Processes Under a Different IdentityUsing CreateProcessWithToken to start applications (e.g., cmd.exe) under another user’s contextUnderstanding how impersonation allows execution with different privilege levelsObserving how processes can run with the security context of another active user or system accountKey OutcomeUnderstanding how Windows tokens can be modified, duplicated, and used for impersonationBuilding the foundation for creating tools that perform privilege escalation, impersonation, and advanced system interaction You can listen and download our episodes for free on more than 10 different platforms: https://linktr.ee/cybercode_academy

    Course 24 - Machine Learning for Red Team Hackers | Episode 6: Security Vulnerabilities in Machine Learning

    In this lesson, you’ll learn about:The major security threat categories in machine learning: model stealing, inversion, poisoning, and backdoorsHow model stealing attacks replicate black-box models through API queryingWhy attackers may clone models to reduce costs, bypass licensing, or craft offline adversarial examplesThe concept of model inversion, where sensitive training data (e.g., faces or private attributes) can be partially reconstructed from learned weightsWhy deterministic model parameters can unintentionally leak informationHow data poisoning attacks manipulate training datasets to degrade accuracy or shift decision boundariesThe difference between availability attacks (general performance drop) and targeted poisoning (specific misclassification goals)Why some architectures—such as CNN-based systems—can appear statistically robust yet remain strategically vulnerableHow backdoor (trojan) attacks embed hidden triggers during training or model updatesWhy backdoors are difficult to detect due to normal performance under standard conditionsDefensive & Mitigation Strategies This episode also highlights why ML systems must be secured across their lifecycle:Restrict and monitor API query rates to reduce model extraction riskApply differential privacy and regularization to limit inversion leakageValidate training datasets with integrity checks and anomaly detectionUse robust training techniques and adversarial testing to evaluate resiliencePerform model auditing and trigger scanning to detect backdoorsSecure the supply chain for datasets, pretrained models, and updates You can listen and download our episodes for free on more than 10 different platforms: https://linktr.ee/cybercode_academy

    Course 24 - Machine Learning for Red Team Hackers | Episode 5: The Complete Guide to Deepfake Creation

    In this lesson, you’ll learn about:What deepfakes are and how neural networks enable face, voice, and style transferThe standard face swap pipeline: extraction → preprocessing → training → predictionWhy conducting a local dry run helps validate datasets before scaling to expensive GPU environmentsThe importance of face alignment, sorting, and dataset cleaning to reduce false positivesHow lightweight models are used for parameter tuning before full-scale trainingThe role of GPU acceleration in deep learning workflowsWhy cloud platforms like Google Cloud are used for large-scale model trainingThe importance of compatible drivers (e.g., NVIDIA drivers) in deep learning setupsHow frameworks such as TensorFlow power neural network trainingHow frame rendering and encoding tools like FFmpeg compile processed frames into videoHow training previews help visualize model convergence from noise to structured outputsEthical & Professional ConsiderationsAlways obtain explicit consent from anyone whose likeness is usedUnderstand laws regarding impersonation, fraud, and non-consensual synthetic mediaConsider watermarking or disclosure when creating synthetic contentBe aware that deepfake techniques are actively studied in media forensics and detection research You can listen and download our episodes for free on more than 10 different platforms: https://linktr.ee/cybercode_academy
