how to start hacking
.jpg)
NOTE: "PLEASE LERN "Alot of people ask “How do i
learn hacking?”, “Where do i
start?”, “How do i become a
hacker”… and so on. I
answered the question a
million times. Now we all can just give them this link to my
blog. ^^ .This is my opinion
about everything. Others
might think about it in a
different way. Eat it or just
throw it away.
What is hacking?
Hacking is a hobby. There aremany ways of hacking. Some
break security systems, some
reverse code.
In my opinion
everything has to do with
hacking. If you want to become a “hacker”. You have
to get some knowledge in
computer science and love to
play around with it. That’s
basicly everything a hacker
needs ;) . What do i have to learn? This really depends on what
you want to achieve. For
example “I want to learn to
break into systems with tools
out there and i don’t want to
know a programming language”
. For me you are no
hacker then but then you just
need to learn metasploit and
co. ;)
There are some main topics in
my opinion that are important. ♣Using a computer (Linux,
configuration and so on)
♣Networking (Protocols and
how does everything work)
♣Software (Developing and
Reversing) ♣Hardware (How does your
CPU work and so on. Not my
best topic but i got some
knowledge here) Using a computer Most people, who read my
blog, have this knowledge. If
you don’t i give you the
advise to install Linux and play
around with it. Configure
some Apache servers or something like that. Just play
around till you feel
comfortable with it. Compile
some programs and so on. If
you are able to compile your
Linux kernel and use it (maybe with an optimized
configuration for your pc). This
topic should be done for you.
You don’t need to know how
to compile a kernel. Just
feeling comfortable with Linux should proof you know
how to use your computer ;) . The other topics can be learned
parallel. There is no need to
focus on one topic. Networking In my opinion everyone needs
to know how to setup a
network. Learn how to
calculate the subnet mask and
co. This should be easy just
read something about it. Google helps alot here ;) .
Learn how everything works.
Examples are ARP Protocol,
TCP/IP Protocol and how
WLAN works. With this
knowledge you can have alot of fun. You should be able to
MitM attack a router and pc
with this. With this setup
sniffing should be possible. This
is enough knowledge here in
my opinion but depending on your needs you can lern more.
Google topics or interesting
tools ♣pcap (for devs, if you want
or know software
development, this is
interesting for you)
♣arpspoof (dsniff package)
♣fragrouter (-B1 was it if i remember right to do
forwarding so the network
doesn’t break if you hook in
there)
♣dsniff tools etc. All tools you need here are on
the net and knowing a
network can be quite funny
on a LAN Party. Guys never
really never ever login private
pages on a lan party or something like this. Public
networks are public for a
network hacker ;) . Software This is my favorite. I work as
software engineer and i love
this topic. For Reversing this
blog has a tutorial series,
which starts here. Before
learning reversing you have to learn software development. I
recommend every so called
“hacker” to have at least a
basic C knowledge. People
always ask what language do i
have to learn. The question is obsolete. If you know C,
which is a functional language,
very well and want to learn
functional programming in VB.
The only thing that differs is
the syntax. I read very often there are so many differences
and just a hand of people
know assembler. This is just
plain bullshit. I know more
than a hand of people that
reverse code (which will be assembler). ;) Other rumor i
hear often from wannabe
hackers. Are that you use
absolute addresses while
developing assembler and the
compiler creates relative addresses. That’s why nearly
no one knows assembler. That
means knowing assembler
needs basic addition and
subtraction. Yeah a assembler
developer can’t do that -.-. I recommend to learn this
languages in this order: ♣C (functional programming)
♣C++ (Object oriented
programming)
♣Assembler (Low level
programming) Assembler
The masterpiece , i know no-
one who really develops
software with it. Except he is
forced to. Knowing this
language gives you the following advantages: ♣Basic knowledge for
reversing
♣Code optimizing
♣Everyone, who knows
assembler. Can imagine what
the CPU does. Hardware: You should know how a cpu
works and how to read/write
a circuit by a binary table or
formula. This is the basic,
which i know. If you want to
go deeper in this topic. Microcontroller and/or FPGAs
should be your topic. Learning
this topic can be expensive. I
recommend you to learn the
Software part next or better
before this topic. Going deep into hardware engineering
needs software. Conclusions: There is no way to give you a
numbered list what todo/learn
to be a hacker. Hacker just
means that you know
computer science and want to
do experiments with this knowledge. If i had to start
from the beginning i would do
it this way. ♣Install Linux and play around
with it
♣Setup my network in linux
so i got internet :D
♣Learn C/C++ with a book and
all it’s examples ♣Go to a lan party or hotspot
and play around with the
networking tools (don’t do
bad things, if you sniff a
password be happy, you made
it. Don’t use it for bad things! You want to be a hacker not a
cracker)
♣Play around with some
hardware and develope
software Now some years should be
gone and you should have the
knowledge to go alone from
here on. I hope this helps some people
to make the right decisions.
