This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

You hope it'll set off alarms. Sometimes it doesn't, mostly because they don't have monitoring setup.
Pen tests aren't cheap. Even basic ones are ~$20k. There's only 2 types of companies that bother with them: ones that care about cybersecurity and ones that have to do it for compliance (PCI/CMMC/etc). Both will have some kind of IDS and a SIEM.
Or because you hacked into the wrong company. This has happened multiple times.
That's what happens when you do off the book stuff on company time. Got to organize yourself better.
I've even heard stories of physical pen testers entering the wrong company. Oops.
