Cyber Security | CTF | Build Your Own Hydra with Python

🚀 In this video, I’ll show you how to build a custom SSH brute force tool in Python — simulating the functionality of the Hydra tool! 🔐 Our Python script can: Load username and password wordlists Specify SSH port Set the number of concurrent threads Use paramiko, threading, queue, and ThreadPoolExecutor for efficient multithreading Gracefully handle stop events during execution 🧠 We’ll walk through the entire code, explaining how to: Use queue.Queue() to share data across threads Implement stop functionality with the threading.Event() Manage concurrency using ThreadPoolExecutor ⚡ This tool is perfect for learning how brute-force attacks work and getting hands-on with Python-based penetration testing. ✅ For educational purposes only. Do not use on systems you do not own or have permission to test. 💬 Let me know in the comments if you want to see this tool extended to support FTP, HTTP login, or more protocols! #ctf #programming #linuxcommandlinetutorial #cybersecurity #coding #computersecurity #vulnhub #informationsecurity #computerhacking #kali #python #pythonhacking #hydra #ssh
