Go ask Hackerman

overthewire.org

check websites with ctfs rankings

Thanks, that's useful.

is hackthissite still a thing? start there

a lot of your hacking skill will derive from your technical knowledge overall, so keep up to date.

learn C and assembly. learn how networks work. SQL, PHP/HTML/JS. hone your Python and bash skills, you'll need them in a pinch.

oh, and learn how people work. social engineering is easier and more effective than hacking through solely technical methods

CTFs are great experience. maybe find a team?

install gentoo

Thanks, but what is a CTF?
>>57231324
Is a linux OS used to hack, right?

>>57231345
CTF is capture the flag, https://ctftime.org/ctf-wtf/

hack what?

games, software, webapps?

there's no such field as "hacking", if you mean all then it will take along time to be like, "ace of all trades"
of hacking, which is nearly impossible.

find a field, then develop yourself in it, if it's software hacking - reverse engineering/exploitation techniques,
of course, C/C++ and assembly is vital, the API of the OS of the applications you're auditing also an understanding of TCP/IP
too if you want to exploit binaries remotely.

webapps? well common web server-side languages, JS will help too, if you want to be able to perform client-side
attacks.

there's no perfect introduction to hacking, well being good at code is the introduction, don't be one of these retards
that bootups kali linux and believes learning all the tools will make u a 1337 mr.robot hacker. learn to fucking audit,
find your own vulns and be able to exploit them - this is what true hacking is and by this and by this - you'll find ways in
that a pentester would normally miss, harvesting 0day is vital to a hacker, also you'll learn how to bypass a lot of security precautions
which with most tools will leave you stuck with, it doesn't pay to be a skid. if youre some network admin that doesn't want to waste time
then the "kali linux" route isn't bad, but if you're looking to be an actual hacker, then it is bad. destroying bad habits straight away will benefit you in
the long run.

not op, how far will i actually get learning this stuff? i usually go like up to 12 on bandit but get distracted and never finish

if i knew its extremely useful i might go all for it

>>57231216
Find shitty sites with SQL injection vulnerabilities.

I have some interest in hacking too, specially in malware development. Im planning to learn Assembly this year and then go to C/C++. I already know Python. Any tips?

>>57231216
Here is a good one. Slot of information to read and a community of help. They encourage you to test your knowledge on their site. Hope this helps www.hackthissite.org

try HackMud. It won't teach you how to hack, but at least you'll get to pretend and have fun.

>>57233755
can i get the multiplayer aspect of the game without buying it

>>57236354
Yeah just hack it

>>57231216
Specify the category of what you wanna hack. There is too many things to do everything by yourself.
For example if you wanna write rootkits you go with assembly and kernels knowledge or if you wanna hack people via web you need to know about ethernet, firewalls and shit like this.

>/g/ actually being useful and replying unironically in a "gee how to be 1337 h4ck0r?? xdxd" thread
Have we made the full circle now?
Is this good or bad?

i Will Ask here

i'm a dba, and I becoming quite interested in the security field

Which route would you suggest me to take?

I've done some sql injections for shits and giggles my past

if you have to ask you will never be better than a script kiddie.

I became a third year student and took Junior electives in penetration testing, network security, and software vulnerabilities.

>>57231216
Get some books on ethical pentesting.

So this is somewhat related to hacking, what is something fun to do after getting root access?

DVWA - Damn Vulnerable Web Application

There is a new mooc Fi course on cyber security that just started today, you should check it out

Sometimes people get so bored of shitposting they give helpful advice instead.

How I can get into malware analysis/development? I currently know C at a decent level and I'm learning C++.

I bought the CEH v9 book and the gray hat hacking book, But, the gray hat book had a readme on a link, does anyone know where I can get previous files? The link: www.mhprofessional.com/getpage.php?c=computing_downloads.php&cat=112

If you have access to the readme file could you post it please?
