ProCodeCG – Private Training – Malware – 12 Sept 2019 – Day #1

Day #1 of Malware Private Training 🙂

Today we learned about what malware are, how do they infect, how do they hide, how do they propagate, and how to detect them in general 🙂

We tried to infect some files with our own virus too 😀

a virus in Python

the anti-virus

and we also take a look on how to dump some hex for a file 😀

we’re going to use Python for learning the general ideas and algorithms, but later we will use C to be able to access lower level 😉

Next week we’re going to do more investigation about viruses and dissect them 🙂

ProCodeCG Kids Coding Camp – Python Programming Day #3 – 31 Dec 2016

Day #3! We’re ready to create some virus, infect some files and recover them using anti-virus 😉

Zaky

Dea

Abit

and Arya couldn’t wait to see how viruses work 😀

We learned two virus today: a duplicating self virus and an encryption virus 🙂 For each virus there is an antivirus.

The code for each one is very long and cryptic

It took a while to type and debug it 🙂

Plus we have to be extra careful running the virus, otherwise the whole directory of python work for the last 3 days will be infected 😀

We had to quarantine the virus in a separated folder to make sure it only infect the files we wanted to be infected 🙂 Notes: running anti-virus will clean the virus file too 😀

This is how the kids look like after hours of virus-antivirus coding LOL

Dea had just lost her virus wiped away by the anti-virus, Abit start massaging his shoulder due to long typing, and Arya said “Ka, I’m giving up typing, can we take a break” for the tenth times 😀

So Capt. Zaki had to copy the virus file to Arya’s laptop after Arya promised he will type the anti-virus 😀

While Capt. Fizhan specialization is still: babysitting 😀

Here they are: our kids python programmers! Watch out world! They can encrypt, they can decrypt and they can create viruses that encrypt!!! 😀

The screenshots of our codes today 😀

Next week we will start Creating Apps and Arduino Programming Coding Camp 🙂 Will be reporting very soon! Happy New Year! 😉

ProCodeCG Kids Coding Camp – Python Programming – Day #3

The last day! We learned to create virus, and the antivirus of course! 😀

Before we learn how to create virus, we have to learn how to write to and read from a file 🙂

We also have learn how to find files in directory

or finding a specific file

Then we can start create the virus

The virus is not dangerous, basically it just makes a copy of itself to another file, and only .py files 🙂 The antivirus is simply deleting the virus body from the infected file

We also created an encryption virus using a simple substitution cipher

The antivirus is simply reversing the process which is decrypting using substitution cipher 🙂

Some kids arrived late so we waited a bit before starting the class

The class (only missing one kid who didn’t feel so well today)

Each piece of code is being tested. This is the view of Capt. Zaki laptop’s screen.

Lots of code needs debugging, Capt. Zaki handles two computers at the same time 😀

Busy captains

We finally finished all the codes!

So it’s a wrap! 🙂

Tomorrow we will learn how to create apps for android 🙂

This is us on the way home, fully packed on the back seat LOL

Until tomorrow! 😉

ProCodeCG Kids Half-Day Camp Virus AntiVirus Day #3

Wow, the last day of Kids Half-Day Coding Camp Virus AntiVirus!

Today we create encypting virus and its antivirus 🙂

The last day felt a bit different, because we knew tomorrow we won’t be doing this anymore 😥

The pattern for each coding camp batch (3 days)  is always like this: day #1 everyone tends to be very quiet because they still don’t know each other. Day #2 they started to make friends and talk to each other, share things etc. Day #3 they would have spent enough time to be best buddies and that’s exactly when the camp ends 😀

This batch is very interesting because ALL the girls are: serious, almost never talk to each other, very quiet, work alone and not demanding.

And the boys are: SUPER loud, play computer games A LOT, eat A LOT, always working in groups and very demanding 😀

When the shalat time comes, the girls have to wait until the boys done performing theirs because the boys will take up lots of space at the musholla while being very intimidating and loud 😀

These two girls sneaked up after the boys done 😀 They got dumped from the musholla by the boys the day before so they decided to avoid the boys 😛

Yeay, there have been more than 100 kids joining our coding camp since 2014! 🙂

One of our favorite facility at Digilife is the screen that can connect to Apple TV through AirPlay. A Mac can display the screen wirelessly and so an iPhone! 😉

Look. At. The. Boys. LOL

It took forever to gather all of them to get their pic 😀

Oh well…

… still not ready…

half-ready

we had to keep taking pics because each time somebody’s face was behind others!

again..

AirPlay disconnected so we decided to took more pic, again 😀

Notice that the girls stand still while the boys… *no comment LOL*

it was impossible to get everyone’s face on the camera, OMG 😀

so we stopped taking pics before this gone crazier 😀

We took some pics with parents

and with the student too 😉

while the others play games on the other side

this one insisted to stay on his corner 😀

“It’s nice here, a comfortable place with high speed wifi and air conditioner. Beside, I haven’t been picked up yet.” He said. 😉

Bye-bye kids, see you very soon on the next coding camp! *sob sob*

This is some screenshots of what we code today! 😉

ProCodeCG Kids Half-Day Coding Camp Virus Antivirus Day #2

Virus Antivirus Coding Camp Day #2!

Day #2 is always when the kids start to know each other 🙂

The girls tend to be quiet and consistently pay attention while the boys started to gather and make noises 😛

Today we start creating the virus, and see how it worked 😀

This one always freaked out about running the virus because he had just heard that the captain got python-based game stopped working infected by the virus LOL

But we finally finished testing the virus and created the antivirus to recover all the infected files 😉

We also learned about some encryption and decryption, because tomorrow we will make encryption virus! 😀

This is how the virus and the antivirus look like 😉

We’ll be reporting again tomorrow! 😉

ProCodeCG Kids Half-Coding Camp Virus Antivirus Day #1

Coding Camp Virus Antivirus Day #1! 😉

We amazingly got more girls in this batch! 😉

We got some kids from previous batches and some newcomers. Lucky that we have reliable captains especially the junior lead captain Zaki 😉

We got kids from elementary school, junior high school and high school

The younger ones like to play during the class which is allowed as long as they have finished the tasks being given 😛

Snacktime! (looks the same LOL)

The kids are very curious about coding and especially about virus 😀

On Day #1 we learn the basic of Python, and a little bit intro about virus.

As it always happens in ProCodeCG Kids classes, every kid is allowed to modify the code or explain the code in front of their friends. This is Cinta explaining how to create triangle numbers with nested loops 🙂

These guys on the back have learned some of Pyhon intro from the previous batch so they brought the problem to the higher level: building it with GUI 😉

We learned about creating files, writing to files, reading files, reading directories, listing files in directories etc. today.

Some kids got freaked up each time they run the code because they are afraid it will infect their computer and erase everything LOL 😀

We will learn about the virus code tomorrow. We’ve told the kids to back up tonight 😀

After the coding camp, some kids stayed to attend ProCodeCG codeMeetUp() about BitCoins 😀  Oh wow! 😀

And these are some of what we learned today 🙂

ProCodeCG Kids Programming Class 26 Sept 2015 – Making Antivirus

Today we created anti-virus for the virus we created last week 🙂

Some of the kids didn’t come last week so they had to catch up typing two files 😉

Cinta, after typing the virus, was prevented by Capt. Zaki to run it because she had not created any backups! So Capt. Zaki helped her.

And after that, she refused to run the virus LOL. She was afraid the virus will destroy the whole computer :))

This is Ardi typing the anti-virus code from the main source computer because he forgot to bring his glasses 🙂

And Cinta, insisted to type the anti-virus before running the virus 🙂 The antivirus later deleted all lines in of her files and she got very angry and told everybody in the class to not ever running the antivirus because “the antivirus is meaner than the virus!” LOL. We later found out that Cinta’s virus, due to the it’s directory structure and where it saved had replicate it’s body and thus infect other .py files with MORE lines and make other files bigger and when she ran the antivirus, it deletes almost everything LOL. But don’t worry. Capt. Zaki was there to fix it 😉

On the left side, is Nara, creating an agar.io game replicate with GameMaker. We challenge him to do it in GameMaker and he finished it in 10 -15″! We will learn how to do it on the next class, and will port it from GML to Python! 😉

The kids observing new games on the internet while thinking how to create it with GM or Python. They think differently now. Whenever they play game, they would wonder how to create the game, not jus how to play it 😉

This is not just a class. But a place when kids are socializing and make friends 🙂

And this is the screenshot of the virus and the antivirus

And this is the improved antivirus that will not recover itself (because eventhough it has a virus signature, it is NOT a virus 😉

On the next class we probably will create an encryption virus. Or create agar.io game. Or BOTH! 😉
