00:00:00,210 --> 00:00:06,150
Today, we will talk about the command and control meetings, this command is very useful and powerful

2
00:00:06,150 --> 00:00:09,180
at finding strength in any output file.

3
00:00:10,740 --> 00:00:13,530
Let's take an example on how to use this utility.

4
00:00:14,730 --> 00:00:17,120
I have a file here called Stuff.

5
00:00:17,760 --> 00:00:18,390
This file.

6
00:00:18,390 --> 00:00:19,970
We created the first video.

7
00:00:21,120 --> 00:00:24,750
Let's use the cab command to see the content of this file.

8
00:00:31,460 --> 00:00:38,120
From the content of the file, we see there is a user and password, but what if this file has tons

9
00:00:38,120 --> 00:00:43,160
of information inside and we only want to look for a specific keyword or a string?

10
00:00:44,990 --> 00:00:50,930
Now it's time to use the grep command, followed by any argument, followed by a string you want to

11
00:00:50,930 --> 00:00:51,370
find.

12
00:00:51,380 --> 00:00:54,850
And finally, the location of the file you want to search.

13
00:00:55,850 --> 00:00:56,570
Let's try.

14
00:00:58,100 --> 00:01:06,740
We will use the grid and then password as a string we want to find and then stop.

15
00:01:11,190 --> 00:01:17,890
As you can see, it filtered the output and now we only see the line which contains our strength.

16
00:01:19,260 --> 00:01:26,940
Notice we can add the dash dash color to end to the end of the command to give a nice color on our screen.

17
00:01:29,380 --> 00:01:30,160
Try to again.

18
00:01:35,260 --> 00:01:45,490
But what if we don't know the name of the file and we don't know where to look for in this case, we

19
00:01:45,490 --> 00:01:52,030
use the dash our argument and it tells the system that we want to find a file recursively.

20
00:01:53,050 --> 00:01:56,080
But first, let's try again using this command.

21
00:02:04,790 --> 00:02:11,210
Noticed I put a dot there because they want to tell the system that I want to look for the same string

22
00:02:11,750 --> 00:02:13,610
in our current directory.

23
00:02:19,100 --> 00:02:19,950
It didn't work.

24
00:02:20,870 --> 00:02:28,010
It expected the file name that we gave it to the directory to look for in order to fix this, we need

25
00:02:28,010 --> 00:02:33,530
to add the Dutch are arguing to tell it that we will use a recursive search.

26
00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:35,690
Let's try again.

27
00:02:40,970 --> 00:02:49,660
Nice, I have created another file inside the PSYOPS directory, which it has another username and password,

28
00:02:50,420 --> 00:02:53,210
can we use the recursive search to find that password?

29
00:02:54,500 --> 00:02:58,200
But we really use the recursive command before and nothing came up.

30
00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:05,420
The reason is the password string in the other file is is simply called past, not password.

31
00:03:06,230 --> 00:03:08,930
And then we search for password.

32
00:03:08,930 --> 00:03:16,310
It didn't show up, but now we can search for only pass and it should show us both things in both files.

33
00:03:18,620 --> 00:03:21,470
Let's first navigate into the PSYOPS directory.

34
00:03:26,940 --> 00:03:32,140
If we use a cab command, we see there's another password here.

35
00:03:33,420 --> 00:03:36,280
Let's go back using the card space dot dot.

36
00:03:38,940 --> 00:03:40,360
We're back to our directory.

37
00:03:41,910 --> 00:03:45,660
Let's search again using the past string instead of password.

38
00:03:54,710 --> 00:04:01,220
As you can see, we find both strength in both files, try to practice the great command as it's very

39
00:04:01,220 --> 00:04:06,390
useful and we will use it and use it a lot later and in all the other videos.

40
00:04:07,490 --> 00:04:08,120
Thank you.

41
00:04:08,330 --> 00:04:09,640
See you in the next video.
