Prepare your Setup

Prepare your setup to eCPPTv2 certification.
Here I will explain my setup, for me, it works. I hope it will work for you too.
We know the basic access is through a VPN I configure my account on a router and connect a switch to It.

Local LAN for Exam Build

Router

This router will connect to my main router and firewall and I will configure the VPN connection to the Lab on it. I can get a more stable connection this way and avoid network/performance problems on the attacker machine.

Switch

Just a cheap unmanaged switch to connect all machines needed to perform the exam.

Buffer Overflows - Windows 7

Then I connected my Windows 7 machine dedicated to buffer overflows to the switch and my attack machine. Equipped with Immunity debugger and Mona.
And Ghidra in case I am stuck...

Attack Machine - Kali

Kali machine is fully updated, I know most people don't recommend this. After fully updating I start configuring all the Operating Systems and tools as I like.
I wrote a script to this for me, you can use it:

Cracking Machine - Debian

I've my cracking machine prepared with all wordlists, keys, hashes, rainbow tables, and all the tools needed to create new wordlists.
And is connected to online APIs in case I can't break it at home...
