It’s wild when you accidentally step upon something intended, yet benign? Something like that happened a few months back when I was volunteering at DEF CON Delhi Group 9111, managing the CTF infrastructure. The story As any sane & quick CTF organizer, the approach was simple. Registrations and challenge descriptions hosted on CTFd. Challenges themselves were dockerized and deployed as their own containers inside a Ubuntu Server VM. A nginx reverse-proxy to handle traffic on the basis of FQD...| Mayank Malik

Objective The objective of this thermal paste evaluation was to assess and compare the performance of eight different thermal pastes under controlled testing conditions. The primary focus was to analyze their thermal conductivity, heat dissipation capabilities, and overall effectiveness in final performance available via thermal headroom. By conducting a series of systematic tests, we aimed to provide valuable insights and data-driven recommendations to aid in the selection of the most suitab...| Mayank Malik
What is Overclocking a GPU? Overclocking a GPU refers to the process of increasing its clock speeds beyond the manufacturer’s specified limits. The core clock, memory clock, and sometimes voltage can be adjusted to achieve higher performance levels. Here are the pros and cons of overclocking: Pros: Increased Performance: Overclocking can provide a significant boost in GPU performance, resulting in higher frame rates in games, faster rendering times in creative applications, and improved ove...| Mayank Malik
What is Undervolting a GPU? Undervolting a GPU refers to the process of reducing the default voltage supplied to the graphics processing unit. GPUs are typically set to run at a specific voltage by the manufacturer, but undervolting allows users to lower that voltage while maintaining stable performance. Pros Reduced Power Consumption: Undervolting lowers the voltage supplied to the GPU, resulting in reduced power consumption. This can lead to lower electricity bills and increased energy effi...| Mayank Malik

‘ Intel Owl’ is a one-stop destination for all your threat intelligence needs. This application, itself was designed on the idea of scalability and provides docker configurations for the same. What if, one needs to deploy it for their organisation, which actively performs threat intelligence, and need high performance application for the same? Well, Intel Owl deployed over GKE (Google Kubernetes Engine) might be able to perform well for that!!| Mayank Malik
