Are you a beginner who wants to learn hacking but don’t know where to start? If so you are at the right place. Since most of the books and free resources on the Internet are only meant for those who already have a considerable amount of knowledge on the subject, they fail to teach hacking for beginners. Therefore, I have decided to come up with this post that gives useful tips for beginners on how to kick start their journey to becoming a hacker.
What is the Best Way to Learn Hacking for Beginners?
Consider the following steps:
Step-1: Begin with the Basics
For beginners who have little or no previous knowledge of hacking, it is always better to start off from the basics. Instead of directly learning how to hack, you can begin exploring more about topics such as computer networks, network ports, firewalls, common network protocols like IP address, HTTP, FTP, DNS, SMTP etc. along with how each of those stuffs work.
You can also begin to learn more about alternate operating systems Linux whose knowledge becomes very much essential in the field of hacking. The more you learn about the basics, the more easy it is to find vulnerabilities and device exploits. Once you develop a basic understanding of the fundamental concepts, you will be in a position to easily understand various hacking techniques that are in practice.
Step-2: Find a Good Source to Start Learning
If one has a fair amount of experience in the field of hacking, there exists so many books and websites that give out technical information on latest vulnerabilities along with possible ways to exploit them. However, for beginners it is hard to find sources that teach hacking right from the basics in a simple and easy to follow manner.
So, I decided to put together all my 10+ years of experience in the field and come up with a book for beginners called Hacking Secrets Exposed which demands no prior knowledge of the topic and is easy for the readers to follow and understand at every step. This book also comes packed with all the necessary fundamental concepts (as mentioned in the step-1) so that readers can find them all at one place. Therefore, I recommend this book for all those beginners who have a dream to start off their journey to becoming a hacker. This is an excellent source of knowledge for all those who have a little or no prior background of hacking. For more information on this book, you can visit the official website from the following link: howtohack.gohacking.com.
Step-3: Learn Programming (Optional)
If you want to take your hacking skills one step ahead, programming is something that you can’t skip down. Although you can easily find a lot of ready made tools and programs that let you hack with ease, it is always better to have some basic knowledge of programming languages like PHP and JavsScript so that you will be in a position to develop your own tools and exploit codes. However, if you do not wish to learn programming you can skip this step and still be a good hacker.
How Long does it Take to Master the Skills of Hacking?
Since hacking is not something that can be mastered overnight, you should never be in a hurry to get going. It requires knowledge, skills, creativity, dedication and of course the time. Depending upon the amount of effort and dedication you put, it can take up anywhere between a few months to few years to develop all the the necessary skills. Everyone can become a hacker provided they learn it from the basics and build a solid foundation. So, if you want to be a hacker all you need is passion to learn, a good source of knowledge that will guide you through the basics and some perseverance.

Wow I’m so excited to try it out
First off,Those who are commenting asking for help and waiting or asking for the book or how to buy it cause yo cant afford it. You’re going nowhere. You’re asking questions on the wrong article….Shouldn’t be asking on a article’s comment section in the first place. And to be leaving a name (fake alias or not) dont ever do that again especially if you want to become a hacker. Do research on the deep web and get a VPN as well if you’re using a public computer. Do your research online on your own.
The thing is they don’t know anything about VPNs, or the deep web or even how to access the deep web. But I agree with what your saying anonymity is everything. Hide your IP Address and use a VPN.
I want to buy your book can I purchase it from the App Store?
I want to buy your book mr im disperate where i can find that?

I began hating computers since I was a 7 year old child. But now I am kinda entering in the photography world and I need to know how to hack for good purposes, and for bad ones due to the cyber attacks increasing nowadays, so then I coud encrypt my stuff and in case of siege, return fire.
But this may be illegal… (depending on the goal you want to achieve, or the target you hack into!)

Help yourself, go learn programming languages, there are plenty of free websites out there. Check out codecademy if you’re just starting. You’re going to have to learn to program and you’re going to have to learn to help yourself. Go out and do your own research, learn programming, and check out websites like hack this site, figure it out.

My opinion is that, no body can become an elite hacker without programming. You will have to learn otherwise you will be known as script kiddie.
I agree, knowing programming is absolutely necessary.

You need to purchase the eBook which comes in a PDF format after which it can be downloaded.
