Long story short, I let my Security+ expire and now I have to go renew it. The newer version of the test I've heard is quite a bit harder with a huge portion on encryption added in. I suck with remember protocol ports and acronyms, so I whipped up a quick flash card system for myself.
Very basic, hardly worth making a code snippet. Just sticking it here to remind myself to make an actual app out of it one day.
Type Card
q as String
a as String
EndType
cards as Card[]
addCard(cards, "FTP", "20-Data, 21-Control")
addCard(cards, "SSH, SCP, SFTP", "22")
addCard(cards, "Telnet", "23")
addCard(cards, "LDAP", "389 / 636")
addCard(cards, "DNS", "53")
addCard(cards, "NetBIOS", "137-name service, 138-datagram service, 139-session service")
addCard(cards, "HTTPS/SSL/TLS/FTPS", "443")
addCard(cards, "TFTP", "69")
addCard(cards, "SNMP", "162")
addCard(cards, "POP3", "110 / 995")
addCard(cards, "IMAP", "143 / 993")
addCard(cards, "SMTP", "25 / 465")
addCard(cards, "RADIUS", "1812 or 1645 for authentication, 1813 or 1646 for accounting")
addCard(cards, "TACACS/TACACS+", "49")
addCard(cards, "RDP", "3389")
addCard(cards, "Kerberos", "88")
dim deck[cards.length] as integer
for i = 0 to cards.length
deck[i] = i
next i
x = random(0, deck.length)
showAnswer = 0
total = cards.length + 1
n = 1
do
print(str(n)+" / "+str(total))
print("")
print(cards[deck[x]].q)
if showAnswer = 1
print(cards[deck[x]].a)
endif
if getRawKeyPressed(32) = 1
if showAnswer = 0
showAnswer = 1
else
showAnswer = 0
deck.remove(x)
if deck.length > -1
x = random(0, deck.length)
inc n
else
end
endif
endif
endif
Sync()
loop
function addCard(mycards ref as Card[], q as string, a as string)
c as Card
c.q = q
c.a = a
mycards.insert(c)
endfunction
Honestly I don't even know why I posted such basic code....
