little hack Guide
Preface: Everyone newbies, some in this, others in this. If you know you behave, you adapt to the rules "unwritten" and not too annoying, you're probably well received and accepted.
The intention of this paper is to help newcomers in Computer Security (come on, hacking
), to take his first steps without disengage. I write because I've seen a lot of new people and I think I need a text like this. Finally I
important to note that when I refer (below) to "we", I will be doing to all those who communicate with the ideals that arise. Regardless level or seniority.
Paragraph One: The rules and customs.
"When in Rome, do as the Romans do" and that in any social group is a set of standards that should be met if you want to be accepted. This is rather a lot, I will simply refer as an example a few and invite the reader to investigate (which happens to be one of the most important standards) for himself.
questions, including: Do not think you're so bad, not that we do not like to help ... is that your questions are rather vague, leaving us no alternative but to send you to google. Before asking any questions on any topic, make sure
of never having spent half an hour searching and informing about your question.
This is a very important point, the questioner usually ends with a stamp that says "
LAMM " on the forehead and going to be ignored forever.
trusts with your friends: And is that nobody likes to be added to MSN
to enter as "What we
fart" followed by "Hey wimp, I do a
fabor ?."
If you go to add someone to msn
, you should consult it before in some other way if you care. And if you're going to ask someone for help,
do with respect and courtesy.
Spelling, at least: not that we are all lit from the literature and the arts. Is that when something is hard to read, for it is written, the content loses interest.
Try to speak and write correctly, the way you talk and write is your only letter.
not pretend to learn the method without knowing the theory: And is that today the question I'm most asked is "How
Defacer" or "As
spamming" and all that irritates me, if you do not know a command * nix
, how you intend to change the index
?
Ah, yes, now there
shells with small buttons
... Well, if you're such, do not talk to me.
Knowledge, common goal: For that reason, look no show that you know, seeks to learn. A
deface my sister can do it face down, hands tied and blindfolded ... Yes! Do not ask how.
here all seek knowledge and each individual is worth exactly as much as you know.
Paragraph Two: The essential and recommended.
He who knows not and knows not that he does not know, is a fool. Avoided.
The first step to learn is to know / want to learn and know what to learn. This may sound redundant and even obvious, but many people want to learn to "be
hacker "Without really knowing what being a hacker
and what knowledge one.
on knowing how to learn, say, that not enough to know something practical approach, the theory is absolutely essential to understand. Your goal should not be able to do, but know-how.
To learn I recommend you look for a suitable text, I read and reread, google all your questions and broaden much information as possible, then you practice and get back to practice, be sure to inform you of why each thing and do not stop thinking about "how it works" every thing.
on what to learn, this is much more complicated and comprehensive. The good news is that you can go little by little, only need to know where to start.
I would say the first step you should take is to learn to use Linux like Windows
"
natively." You should know that the Internet works on * nix
, so it is very important that you move comfortably through a console, you understand the system directories, you know they do set up Internet services (web
server, ftp, etc).
The second step is learning to program, the first language is a sensitive issue, I think the first thing you need is knowing how to program scripts
. For this and you're at
linux, I would recommend learning
Bash, scripting language
most unixes
. Then you have to learn programming languages \u200b\u200b
web undoubtedly be the first
PHP.
Some here say, "But I want to hack
I do not want to be a programmer or system administrator!", Well ...
hack is that you know more security programmer and administrator: P
Section Three: General recommendations * Choose a nick
original and not change it. Please note that all will know you by your nick
, If you choose a nick
as Haxor
"will be one more than himself" Haxor
. " The nick
is something that does not change, when people know you by your nick
not force them to learn another.
also prevents things like
leet speak , references to
hacking and obscenity.
* If all you want is to "delete web pages
" better let
... or reward yourself and now. But do not think a blog to show the world your accomplishments, not interested.
* Another recommendation is to keep a low profile, even when you consider you know better than the rest of the people I talked.
* If you do not know, do not pretend to teach. Often newbies
precedence to collaborate with the community to their own learning, it hurts the player and themselves. The first step is learning to collaborate, learn and do
compulsively.
* Never try to appear more educated than they really are. Even if you think you can fool us, the sooner you catch a liar than a lame. There is nothing worse than a newbie
hacker pretending to be
a
Lammer.
* Be careful with your teachers, choose a bad teacher can make you in a bad pupil. Do not deify anyone, the gods on Mount Olympus, we're all human, we all have flaws. It is critical to judging people, especially if you intend to teach.
* Read everything you can, even more. Any topic that interests you is good reason to start learning. Here you will find many interesting articles that entertain you:)
Paragraph four: Recommended reading.
When I started in computer security that Google did not exist, information is lost in a yahoo
that left much to be desired and hundreds of pages with garbage
webs. Now is possible due to serious seekers and communities, find lots of articles highly recommended to read.
I'll just recommend some texts for beginners
, I've read and I found an excellent start and first step.
Farewell: You've taken the first step.
If you've gotten this far, you've taken the first step in your long journey. Many will say, "this is not for me" and I'm glad. Those who stay, welcome.
If you want to include something in the text, consider leave without mentioning some important aspect or a correction like me, leave a comment.
