TL;DR: A number of discussions have been had regarding the stealer log data dump known as Alien_Txtbase. One of these analyses was performed by Specops Software on March 27, 2025. You can use that writeup to compare to the new data. Before Breach Forums was taken down yet again, a number of new records were offered by a forum member, totalling about 126m rows. This data was not explicitly mentioned as more Alien_Txtbase data, however the files were named the appropriate filename, with the Alien_Txtbase header, consistent with previous releases. We will now perform an analysis of the data to investigate how real the threat is (and discuss the records therein).

TL;DR: I was preparing my tools for my first on-site assessment. The scope of the engagement included some possible wifi audit/site survey, figuring the Hak5 Wifi Pineapple (tm) is really popular, I wanted to see about bringing one to try it out in a real engagement. I decided on the Archer AC1750 as the hardware, and with some fighting did manage to get the Tetra firmware flashed over, there are some takeaways though; the documentation kicking around is missing some specificity, and in the end I don’t think the ordeal was really worth it compared to just carrying an Alfa.
