I really don’t know how to explain but hacking is difficult to understand. Like I watched tutorials on Youtube, took courses and read many books but still I feel like I know nothing. Watching Mr Robot and other documentation made feel even worse, you might say Mr Robot doesn’t portray the real world but the documentation do. Like this video I was completely baffled at how I didn’t have a single clue how they did it what techniques they used.

After all that though, I don’t want to give up on hacking, I want to learn more advanced stuff. If you have an recommendations please dm me or comment.

Sorry for my bad english learning to write too.

    A basic grounding in computer science would be a good starting place.

    Do you know the difference between the various processor architectures and operating systems? Do you know the difference between real time computers and interrupt based systems? Are you familiar with the seven layer network model and which layers the different services interact with the hardware and software? Are you grounded in cryptography and the system of public and private keys, modulo operations, prime number factorisation?

    This is assuming that you already understand coding and are proficient in at least one language. None of these skills and knowledge on their own are indispensable or completely necessary but these things are what computers are made of, how they communicate and how they are secured.
