Fixing gaps around terminal windows Burpsuite

Fixing gaps around terminal windows Burpsuite

If there are empty gaps of desktop space outside terminal windows, it is likely due to the terminal’s font size. Either adjust the size until finding the ideal scale that closes the gap, or toggle resizehints to 0 in config.h.

This will cause dwm to ignore resize requests from all client windows, not just terminals. The downside to this workaround is that some terminals may suffer redraw anomalies, such as ghost lines and premature line wraps, among others.

Penetration Testing Methodologies

Penetration Testing Methodologies

The steps a penetration tester takes during an engagement are known as the methodology. A practical methodology is a smart one, where the steps taken are relevant to the situation at hand. For example, having a methodology that you would use to test the security of a web application is not practical when you have to test the security of a network.
