Completed the " Starting Point " Tutorial on HackTheBox . Even though it was just the tutorial, it was a completely amazing and interesting experience. Here is a pic of the flag I captured from root.txt on the Admin desktop of the server. I have intentionally blurred out the actual flag because of the policy that users of HTB are not allowed to share flags publicly. Even though different flags are generated for every new hacker, I didn't want to take a risk. :) I can tell this is the start of something incredible .
