Is it difficult to become a hacker? How to acquire hacking skills

This tutorial will cover the following two topics: introduction and hacker tools.

Introduction
Hello reader. A year ago I came to HZ, and really wanted to become a hacker. No one could explain many simple things to me, I saw many experienced ones, but literally only a few helped me take the path of a hacker. And I can name them: PinkPanther, DrWeb, R_a_ID_e_R. I studied on my own, not hoping for anyone's help, trying to describe my knowledge in articles for beginners. So time passed, generations changed... I don’t want to complicate the life of newbies, I have always treated them well, and I believe that newcomers have the right to know. Anyone who says that I am wrong, that “let them figure it out themselves, that’s the only way they will grow,” is both right and wrong. Yes, the persistent will achieve their goal, but a person who does not need this will simply not read this article. For those who still torment search engines with questions like “how to become a hacker,” I decided to dedicate a series of lessons, and maybe even a book. You will go from lammer to hacker, learn programming technologies, hacking and much, much more. Follow this path according to my lessons, and everything will be OK. This is the first lesson dedicated to the basics of hacking, it is rather enticing. Remember, these are all just toys, real hacking will come later. And at this stage you must decide whether you need it or not. Gradually we will study network technologies, you will learn how the Internet works, what you can find interesting on it, what is possible and what is not. Welcome to our world!
Hacker Tools
In this section I will describe a gentleman's hacker's kit. We will sometimes use these tools in the future.

Brute force
- Port scanner
- Security scanner
- Joyner
- Mail Bomber
- Windows password cracking
- View passwords
- Trojan
-KeyLogger
- IP hider (proxy/sox)
- HTTP request spoofing

Let's start in order:

[Brute force]. Bruteforce (translated from English as “brute force”) is used to select passwords from e-mail and ftp servers. There are many types of brute force programs, but their abilities are similar. When using such programs on dial-up connections, where the speed does not exceed 56 Kbps, the selection can be long and tedious, but when using high-speed Internet (ADSL, fiber optic, satellite, etc.) the selection speed increases, but then a lot of traffic is consumed. The best option is selection from a dictionary. The hacker composes a text document from the victim’s possible passwords, the program connects to the server assigned to it and takes turns searching through the passwords from the file. If passwords for a mailbox are being selected, you need to brute force indicate the server of the victim’s incoming messages, for example, if we break soap, then most often the server will be pop.pupkin.ru. If we break not an e-mail, but a site pupkin.ru, then we need to specify an ftp server, it will be ftp.pupkin.ru. Brute forces also have a lot of useful settings, for example, if you notice that your friend is entering a password of 5 characters, and its first character is L, then you need to use mask selection. The mask will look like this: L#### . I have given a general description, and for a closer acquaintance I advise you to download wwwHack.

[Port Scanner]
Since this lesson is an introduction, I will torment you with network technologies another time, but you still need to know this.
Port scanners check a given range of IP addresses on a given open port. If the port is open, this IP is added to the list.
Where is this applied? The creators of so-called "Trojans" sometimes include a port scanner in their creations. The point is that the server
When a Trojan lands on a machine, it opens a port in the system through which it receives client commands. For those who have not yet guessed, I will explain: Knowing,
what port our trojan opens, we "ask each computer in the range" if this port is open, and if so, then on this machine
Our troy is sitting - you can safely connect and control this computer. I recommend using Essentional Net Tools as it
good scanner with an additional set of functions. This is not just a scanner - keep that in mind. During its existence it became
legendary, and has not yet lost its relevance. It's paid. My brother bought and gave me the serial number from version 1.1:
Name: Jan Klaassen
S/N: 2957888021

[Security Scanner]
There are two types of pages on the Internet: static (HTML) and dynamic (PHP, ASP, CGI). If the page extension is htm, html, this means that the content of the page does not depend on the user and is always unchanged - “static”. Dynamic pages process data received from the user; roughly speaking, they can think. Naturally, there can be no talk of any holes in html pages; holes only happen in the scripts of dynamic pages. The most common vulnerabilities are XSS. They were well described by DrWeb in the article “XSS for Beginners,” so I won’t explain their essence. To automate the search for XSS vulnerabilities (and more), hackers use security scanners. I recommend XSpider.

[Joyner] - (English Join - connect, unite).
Joyner is a program that allows you to combine several files into one, with the ability to attach an arbitrary icon to the resulting file. Thus, using a joyner, a hacker can glue a Trojan horse with some useful utility and push it to the victim. That, in turn, when opening a file, believes that it is launching its own program, although in fact two of them are launched (three, four, etc.), the Trojan simply does not reveal itself. The disadvantage of this approach is that most joiners are detected by antiviruses.


This type of program is designed to “bomb” email, i.e. bombarding with a huge number of letters. Mail bombers are widely used by spammers. Personally, I am not a spammer, but I use Ganja Spammer to spoof the sender's address. Very convenient for phishing. I'll tell you what it is later.

[Windows Passwords]
I respect InsidePro's products and recommend downloading them. These are: PasswordsPro, MD5Inside, PWLInside, SAMInside. The purpose of the programs is already included in their name, but I will talk about each one separately.
SAMinside is a program for hacking the SAM file. In Windows 2k/XP, user passwords are stored in the windowssystem32config directory, and are called resp. SAM and SYSTEM, without extension. To copy them for decryption, you will have to use DOS or an alternative OS, such as Windows PE. So, passwords are stored in encrypted form, and in order to decrypt them, you must have copies of these files. You need to enter them into SAMinside, set the brute force method, and wait.
PWLinside - similar, only this is for the now dead Windows 95/98, where passwords (including for the Internet) are stored in the Windows directory in files with the *.PWL extension.
MD5inside - decrypts the MD5 hash used in many authorization systems. By decrypting the hash, you can get the password. By the way, in IPB forums approximately this hash is stored in cookies.
PasswordsPro is a powerful tool for working with passwords, it has all the functions of MD5inside, hash generation, and it can also show passwords hidden behind asterisks, for this you need to enable the corresponding. mode and point the mice at the password field.

[View passwords]
If you are interested in knowing what a friend is writing to your fiancee by e-mail, just go to his house and send him to make coffee, and at this time we take out a floppy disk and launch a program that shows all his passes, including soap. Magic? No! The whole point is that for convenience, to save you from the thrill every time you log in to the site, ICQ, etc. enter a password, browsers/ICQ/mail providers remember it. This is why they are punished). There are many programs that show all kinds of saved passwords. To see what IE and Outgluk Express saved there, you can use the PSPV program. For TheBat - TheBatPasswordViewer, for ICQ/Trillian/Miranda etc. - Advanced Instant Messenger Password Recovery, abbreviated as AIMPR.

[Trojan Horse]
Now we get to the most interesting part). This subspecies of animals is so called because it acts like the famous Trojan horse. Penetrating into the user's system, he gets used to it and works for the owner. What I mean? Unlike a virus, a Trojan is harmless if you are not online. It is activated when its creator sends it commands via LAN or the Internet, for example, it can send your passwords to the owner on command, and many other interesting things, it also allows an attacker to climb through your files and registry, in general, you get the point, and they have the capabilities Everyone is different. The most popular Trojans: ALB, NetBus, LamerDeath. But they’ve all been burning for a long time now. And my own is called LamerHack, you can search on my website, and it doesn’t burn, but now there is still a weak beta version available, and besides, the lack of fire is compensated by the size of the server.


Keylogger is Russian for "keylogger". It catches all your keystrokes and writes them to a file, after which it can send them to its creator, or save it to a screw. It is useful to set it with a friend - he will write down everything that she writes to on ICQ.


If you are doing something that is not entirely legal, then you are unlikely to be happy with the fact that your IP address will remain on the server you hacked, from which you can’t be identified. So what then? There is such a thing called a proxy server, or sox server. I won’t go into details and explain to you how they differ - at this stage it doesn’t matter to you. The essence is the same - your IP address is replaced with the address of the proxy server. This is used when there are some restrictions on your IP, for example, the amount of music to download, or a limited number of attempts to register ICQ. And for the very first case, you need to use anonymous or elite proxies. Their disadvantage is instability. They change every n hours. There is always a fresh list of proxies. I recommend as a program for using a proxy.

[HTTP packet spoofing]
I will also describe this in more detail in future lessons. All information on the Internet will be transferred to the so-called. "packets". Like packets of secret information in war, HTTP packets have a filling and an inscription: to whom/where, etc. , with the only difference that THIS information is not considered particularly secret, but is of interest. The packet header contains information about the browser, where we came from, and what data is transferred to which scripts. As you understand, we will talk about replacing this data. The question arises: “Why?” . And then. Let's take a better look at an example. In Dnepropetrovsk we have a very popular Internet provider “Alkar Teleport”. It contains several sites with interesting resources that are available only to its users. When entering from other provinces, they send a message. How do these sites check where I came from? By IP. If, for example, the IP is 212.15.x.x, then access is allowed. And if we replace the referer (where I came from) with the address of the server itself, then, most likely, it will not prohibit us from doing anything. The InetCrack program is used, download it.

Of course, not all programs were described in this section, but the main ones were described.

Vladislav Novik aka VladUha::HackZona.Ru

Otherwise, however, many want to learn how to master computer technology and have a perfect knowledge of the structure of networks, including the Internet, including their weak points and vulnerabilities. Such knowledge can be used not only to harm someone, but also for good, for example, to improve the protection of networks and programs hosted on them, etc.

You don't need superpowers to become a hacker from scratch. This is quite possible for anyone who has a penchant for programming and a technical mind in general (it will be difficult for a humanities student to become a hacker, but he is unlikely to have the desire).

To become a hacker from scratch you need: 1. Tenacity, perseverance, patience. The impulsive nature does not really correspond to the painstaking work of real hackers. 2. Graduate from a university with a degree in applied mathematics. This may disappoint those who wanted to become a hacker in a couple of months, but this point is absolutely necessary. Among the famous hackers, the vast majority graduated from university, and very successfully.

3. Find and carefully study literature on the functioning of operating systems, software, networks (tcpip, dns), security systems (depending on what area you plan to specialize in as a hacker). In addition, the necessary elements of a hacker's education are the theory of cryptography and the practice of creating and operating cryptographic systems.

4. Excellent knowledge of mathematical models of encryption and have experience in creating ciphers and encryption systems, as well as the basics of the functioning of encryption equipment and software and hardware implementations of cryptography algorithms, which is also a mandatory element of a hacker’s education.

5. Regularly and carefully read Hacker magazine, and also study past issues. This popular publication contains a lot of useful information, not only for hackers, but also for ordinary users. 6. Explore online forums where hackers communicate, for example, the forum at www.xakep.ru. This way you can learn the working algorithms and professional secrets of hackers.

Are you a beginner pentester or are you looking for tips on where to start or how to become a hacker from scratch? We encourage you to explore and get started with this list of scanning programs to study your target and network. We looked everywhere for a beginner's guide, but couldn't find anything that was all in one, so we decided to create this article for beginners. Everything will be presented briefly. Here are our recommendations for the most popular and effective hacking and scanning programs. If you know the programs better, please leave your opinion in the comments.

1. – There is both a free and paid version. This tool has many purposes, but the most important one is Indicators for SQL Penetration and Cross Site Scripting.

It also has a built-in script parser. This security tool generates detailed reports that identify vulnerabilities in the system. Many developers use it to identify vulnerabilities in their programs and systems. A very useful tool for both hacking and identifying vulnerabilities.


2. Aircrack-ng is a complete set of network security tools, which includes:
  • (used for attacks on WEP and WPA)
  • (used to decrypt WEP and WPA captured packets)
  • (puts network cards in monitor mode)
  • (Package injector)
  • (represents a packet sniffer)
  • (used for virtual tunnel interfaces)
  • (stores and manages ESSID and password lists)
  • packetforge-ng (creates encrypted injection packets)
  • airdriver-ng (includes methods to attack clients)
  • (removes WEP cloaking)
  • airdriver-ng (for managing wireless drivers),
  • (manages the ESSID and can calculate the master key)
  • (gives access to the wireless card from other computers)
  • easside-ng (allows the user to run programs on a remote computer)
  • easside-ng (means of communication to the access point, without a WEP key)
  • tkiptun-ng (for WPA/TKIP attack)
  • wesside-ng (for WEP key recovery).

3. Cain & Abel or simply Cain. A cool tool for those who are starting to write scripts. It is more used as a password recovery tool. This tool allows the tester to recover various types of passwords by listening to network traffic, and cracking encrypted passwords using either a dictionary or Brute Force attack. The tool can also record VoIP conversations and has the ability to decode encrypted passwords, detect WiFi network keys and cached passwords. When used properly, the tester can also analyze routing protocols. The security tool by its nature does not exploit any software vulnerabilities or holes but simply identifies security flaws in standard protocols. IT security students use this tool to learn APR (Arp Poison Routing) Man-in-the-Middle attacks (). New versions of this program allow you to crack the most used and popular encryption algorithms.
4. – there’s no need for many words here. I think to this day this is the coolest thing for a MITM attack. It uses ARP poisoning to attack. Allows you to see everything that is happening on the network you are on.
5.John The Ripper– perhaps the coolest name for this kind of instrument. A very popular security tool, often abbreviated simply "John" used to crack passwords. Originally created for the UNIX operating system, it currently runs on all major operating systems. Until now, this tool is one of the most popular for testing passwords and cracking programs that provide security. The tool combines various password crackers into one compressed package, which can then identify types of password hashes through its own custom cracking algorithm.
6. – is a security project that provides information about vulnerabilities and helps test and detect intrusions. The open source project - known as , is used by security professionals to execute code on a remote target computer - for penetration testing, of course! But Hackers love it very much; it allows you to work wonders.
7. Nessus is another giant for vulnerability scanning. Nessus scans for different types of vulnerabilities. Those that check for holes that hackers can exploit to gain control or access to a computer system or network. The tools also scan for default and general passwords, which can be used and executed through Hydra (an external tool) and launch a dictionary attack. Other vulnerability scans include attacks against the TCP/IP stack.
8. is another massive giant security tool that has been around forever, and probably the most famous. Nmap has been featured in many movies, including The Matrix - just Google it and you'll see what we mean. Written in C, C++, Lua Gordon Lione (Fedor) Since 1997, Nmap (Network Mapper) is the de facto and best security scanner that is used to locate hosts across a computer network. To discover hosts on a network, Nmap sends specially crafted packets to the target host and then parses the responses. The program is very complex because unlike other port scanners. It sends packets based on network conditions taking into account fluctuations, congestion and more.
9. Kismet is a wireless network detector, analyzer, and an excellent intrusion detection security tool. With Kismet you can monitor and listen to 802.11b, 802.11a, 802.11g and 802.11n traffic. There are many Sniffers out there, but what makes Kismet different and very popular is the fact that it works passively - meaning that the program does not send any packets, yet is able to monitor wireless access points and wireless clients. It is open source and widely used.
10. – has been around us for centuries and is extremely popular. Wireshark allows a penetration tester to put a network interface in promiscuous mode and therefore see all traffic. This tool has many features such as the ability to collect data from a live network connection or read from a saved file of already captured packets. Wireshark is capable of reading data from a wide range of networks, from Ethernet, IEEE 802.11, PPP, and even loopbacks. Like most of the tools on our security list, captured network data can be monitored and managed using a GUI - which also allows plugins to be inserted and used. Wireshark can also capture VoIP packets (like Cain) and raw USB traffic can also be captured.

If you are a Professional Penetration Tester or a Hacker, then you already know how to use these wonderful Programs. Hacking and pentesting tools are easy, neat, and fun to learn. The people who created them were brilliant programmers and made everything very convenient to use.

A large number of Internet users ask themselves the question: how can one become a hacker, and where should one start? As a rule, connoisseurs of this hobby are boys aged 16 to 20 years. Don't think that this is impossible. If you know some information, then everything can definitely work out.

Profession hacker

Hacker is a high-level programmer who works with ready-made software, and with the help of various programming languages ​​he tries to turn his own imagination into reality. For many people, this job is the whole meaning of their life. Such inclinations often begin to develop in early childhood. This mainly applies to professional hackers. You can find out how you can become such a hacker by reading our article.

Try to understand the basic programming languages ​​first. This experience will help you achieve your desired goal. According to many professionals, you can study this database yourself, while at home and devoting a lot of time to studying these materials, computer equipment and programming languages. And the basic basics of programming contain similar principles and structure. You will need to memorize several of them. These include Java, PHP, MySQL, etc. Apart from programming languages, you will also need to learn different operating systems, which may seem very simple to you at first glance. In this case, we are talking about Linux platforms. And UNIX. Professional hackers do not work with Windows firmware. They try to work on the Internet correctly.

If you really decide to become a real pro in this matter, then you will need to gain as much knowledge as possible. And with this, only the Internet can help you. Try to learn how the World Wide Web works, and try to understand why clients transfer HTTP servers, how the system's browser interacts with the server, etc. Without this knowledge in your head, you will not be able to count on excellent results in the future. Try to choose the package of necessary programs for yourself. Let us immediately warn you that choosing the right programs is not so easy. But still, your strong desire and perseverance can greatly simplify this task. First, try to find a few assemblers and compilers. The latest solutions translate program texts into an equivalent program. As for the very first option, this is the so-called software, which converts programs into machine-type commands. You will also need a good text editor to work with, one that can edit and create text files, print and view, and search text information. You will also need a special editor that allows you to create and change the initial program data. This solution may well be a separate program, or part of the development environment. So WTO, now you could get a little idea of ​​how you can become a hacker. If you decide to build a career on this job, then it will not be superfluous for you to learn 2-3 foreign languages. Many experts in this field advise choosing English to study, since it is the most commonly used language on the Internet.

Video instructions.

To summarize, it should be noted that work and perseverance, together with an understanding of the need for goals, and the ability to correctly implement your ideas in life, will help you become a very successful hacker. But it is worth noting that you will have to carry out this work only within the framework of the current law, since malicious hacking is punishable by criminal law.

How to become a hacker from scratch

The job of a professional hacker is very exciting. Theft of important information, website hacking, theft of funds, disclosure of secrets and penetration. Yes, it is worth noting that a hacker has many options. As for his real name, it is, of course, carefully hidden. As a rule, young people are interested in active activities related to theft of information and hacking of websites.

But, unfortunately, they do not understand that they will have to answer before the law for these offenses. This activity is not always associated with illegal work. If you want to work in the computer field, then large organizations will usually use your services. And this should not be surprising, since the hacker is an excellent IT specialist. In practice, the largest banks and corporations want a professional hacker on their staff. Companies try to protect important information using all kinds of computer technologies, and a professional hacker can find various loopholes in this protection and thus prevent the theft of important information.

Only self-development will help you obtain this profession. We will share some tips in this article, and with their help you can bring your dream closer, and maybe even realize it.

Step-by-step action plan Basic skills

Firstly, you need to get to know the Internet as closely as possible, try to find out the meaning of all kinds of headings, study many main concepts and try to understand the interaction of browsers with servers.

Programming languages.

Much attention should also be paid to thoroughly studying programming languages. Using tutorials that can be found on the Internet, you can learn how to write the simplest programs. If you put a little effort into this work, you can easily master basic programming skills. And in the future you will be able to improve them. If you want to work as a hacker, then your main attention should be paid to learning hypertext markup language. It is called HTML.

English language.

You should also study English. This language is used in all world services. Based on this, you need to master it perfectly. After you have completed the tasks, you will need to start studying all sorts of intricacies of hacking and professional issues. It is worth noting that the Internet is simply overflowing with information that relates to our topic today. You should pay attention to the tips that we will share with you. They can help you gain discipline, professionalism, diligence and perseverance. Try to value your personal time and your colleagues. You should share your new achievements with them and respect the code. Yes, it is worth noting that hackers have their own code. It prohibits taking or giving in return. If you were able to hack someone else's program, you should inform its owner so that he can consider options for protecting his own brainchild. Thought patterns should also be eliminated. A hacker should not think in stereotypes. He must have the ability to find answers instantly. you should not be shy about asking for advice. If you don’t understand something, then don’t be shy to ask for advice on various thematic forums.

If you were able to solve the task without anyone’s help, then you need to tell your colleagues about it. In the future they will do the same. It is necessary to monitor the equipment. A computer is a living organism. He is also a very close friend of the IN specialist. Based on this, laptops, computer equipment, and various stationary systems always require care. You can achieve your goal quite quickly if your team of colleagues is replenished with free time and perseverance. You will need to learn a lot of new information every day. This in turn can bring you a lot of experience and knowledge. You should forget about computer games forever. You will need to spend your personal time gaining new knowledge that will definitely be useful to you in the future. You should also study the criminal code in order to avoid various unpleasant moments. Continuing our topic today, we will try to consider the main stages of training, so that we can learn in more detail where to start in order to become a professional hacker. In many feature films, hackers are involved in hacking various payment systems, websites of large corporations, government agencies and industrial facilities. The main goal of these hacks is very important information or money. In reality, everything is not so easy. A hacker is an ordinary programmer who can simply hack a program code. In this case, he has completely different goals. Hackers do not want to take possession of important information and sell it for huge amounts of money in order to later sell it on the black market. At the moment of hacking a program, the hacker learns the basic principles of its operation, tries to study the code in order to be able to find various loopholes and create a similar program. Most people believe that hackers are criminals who hack software. Based on this, there are many specialists who are by no means hackers, but still lead a similar lifestyle. Even a novice hacker can harm any website or computer if he uses malicious scripts that can masquerade as a regular program and are placed on websites. In reality, it is very difficult to find a real specialist in this field. A professional hacker will never share with others exactly what he does. He carries out his work alone, because he knows that his type of activity is punishable. You should have as much patience as possible. You also need to realize that learning different information and mastering skills will take you years. Try to pay special attention to the study of applied mathematics. Without acquiring this knowledge, you will not be able to become a real hacker. It is also necessary to buy books that are devoted to the operation of software platforms, programs, and security systems. Try to learn how to write code, and also create all kinds of encrypted systems without outside help. You won't be able to work without these skills. Try to read more different thematic magazines, visit all kinds of forums and sites that are dedicated to hacker activities. All these sources of information can greatly help you in self-development.

Also try to keep a journal daily. Record statistics of your new achievements and successes in it. Over time, you will be able to notice that your skills have become more advanced. You should also be prepared for the fact that self-study will be quite long and will require a lot of effort and work from you. Only in this way can you achieve significant results and break stereotypes. You should also always remember that you need to work within the framework of the current law.

Finally

If you decided to learn how to become a hacker from scratch in 15 minutes, then this publication was able to explain to you that this matter is not simple. Every person who decides to become a hacker must remember that many difficulties await him. And this is all because you will have to study serious information. But don't be afraid of this. Remember, you must act within the law. We sincerely hope that our article can help you. And you, in turn, having studied this material, will be able to achieve success in a short period of time. But remember that changing or creating programs that lead to the destruction of important information is a punishable crime in our country. For carrying out these transactions, you may be imprisoned for three years and fined a large amount. If your actions lead to very serious consequences, then a very severe attack awaits you. Based on all of the above, remember, before you start work, think carefully about whether you can avoid various temptations in this activity and not break the law. We wish you good luck!

For some people, work is a way of life. These kinds of inclinations are most often laid in childhood. This applies to professional hackers to a greater extent. Find out how to become one of them below.

  • Learn the basics of programming. This skill will allow you to achieve your goal. According to professionals, it is possible to study the database on your own at home, if you devote as much time as possible to studying materials, programming languages ​​and computer technology.
  • The basics of programming have a similar structure and principles. A number of programming languages ​​will have to be learned by heart. These include PHP, MySQL, Java and others.
  • In addition to programming languages, be sure to get acquainted with operating systems, which, at first glance, seem simple. We are talking about UNIX and Linux platforms. Real hackers don't work with Windows firmware.
  • Hackers strive for proper networking, which involves much more than communicating with friends. If you really want to become a real ace, you will have to gain a lot of knowledge, and only the Internet will help. Learn how the World Wide Web works and understand why the client transmits HTTP servers, how the browser interacts with the server, and so on. Without this knowledge, you can’t count on a good result.
  • Choose a software package. I’ll warn you right away that choosing the right tool programs is not easy, but a strong desire will simplify the task. First, find some compilers and assemblers. The first solutions translate program text into an equivalent program. The second option is software that converts programs into machine-type instructions.
  • You can’t do without a good text editor that allows you to create and edit text files, view, print and find text information.
  • You will need a specialized editor in which program source codes are created and modified. Such a solution can be a separate program or part of a development environment.

You've got your first idea of ​​how to become a hacker. If you intend to build a career, it won’t hurt to learn several foreign languages. Experts recommend paying special attention to the English language, since it is used very widely on the Internet.

  • Respect the code. Hackers have their own code, which prohibits giving or taking in return. If you managed to hack someone else's program, inform the owner so that he can work on protecting his brainchild.
  • Eliminate stereotyped thoughts . A hacker should not think in stereotypes. He must have the ability to quickly and always find answers.
  • Ask for advice . If something is unclear, do not hesitate to ask for advice on a thematic forum. If you solved the problem yourself, share the solution algorithm with your colleagues. They will do the same in the future.
  • Keep an eye on the technology . A computer is a living organism and a close friend of an IT specialist. Therefore, computer equipment, stationary systems, laptops or netbooks need care.

Reach your goal quickly if your team of allies is replenished with perseverance and free time. Every day you will have to learn new information, which will bring experience.

How to become a hacker where to start


Continuing the theme of today's article, we will consider the main stages of training in order to learn in detail where to start to become a hacker.

In feature films, hackers hack into payment systems, government websites, large organizations and industrial facilities. The main purpose of hacking is important information or money. In reality, everything is not so simple.

A hacker is an ordinary programmer who is able to crack software code. However, he has other goals. He does not seek to obtain important data and sell it for big money on the black market. During hacking, a specialist gets acquainted with the operating principle of a particular program, studies the code to find holes, and create an analogue or similar program.

Many people consider hackers to be criminals who hack and destroy, so there are “specialists” who are not hackers, but try to lead a similar lifestyle. Even a beginner can harm a website or computer if he uses a malicious script that disguises itself as a program and is placed on websites.

In real life, meeting a true professional in this field is problematic. An experienced hacker will never tell you what he does. He works alone because he knows that such activity is punishable.

  1. Be patient. Realize that mastering the skills will take years.
  2. Pay special attention to the study of applied mathematics. Believe me, without mathematical knowledge you will not be able to become a hacker.
  3. Be sure to purchase books devoted to the operation of programs, software platforms, and security systems.
  4. Learn to write code and create encrypted systems without outside help. Work without these skills is impossible.
  5. Read thematic magazines, visit websites and forums dedicated to hacking activities. Sources of information will help in self-development.
  6. Keep a diary. Record statistics of successes and achievements. Over time, you will notice that your skills have become more advanced.

Be prepared for the fact that studying at home will be lengthy and require maximum effort. This is the only way to conquer the peaks and break stereotypes. Remember, you must act within the law.

Do not forget that creating or modifying programs that lead to illegal copying, blocking or destruction of important information is a punishable crime. For such actions they can be imprisoned for 3 years and fined a tidy sum.

If the actions cause serious consequences, the punishment will be more severe. Therefore, before you take up work, be sure to think about whether you can resist temptation and not cross the line of the law. Good luck and see you again!
