Hello guys, I’m looking for a complete comprehensive free course to learn ethical hacking and cybersecurity skills for Linux. Ive been trying to find something complete but it can’t seem to find good resources and if I happen to find some “free”, it turns out you have to pay to go deep into the topics otherwise you only get a glance of whats it about.
One of the promising pages ive found is null byte but kinda seems not in order for someone who wants to learn from scratch and videos are sometimes from 4-6 years ago
I was trying to find resources in order to start with cybesecurity and pentesting. I found a guy named S4vitar at Twicht and you tube. Check this Scripting en Bash para principiantes #1 - YouTube.
Also OverTheWire: Wargames if you want to start with practical examples or hackthebox website as well.
Hope this resources are fine for you as are great for me.
Theres plenty of sources. Try doing something consenual. Attack your phone. Try and see if you can break into its Bluetooth, try to gain root access, and so forth. Metasploit is an interesting tool, so try looking for Metasploit pdf. Pick a program in parrotsec and type pdf after it.
Id reccomend understand the pc. Try looking into Wireshark and understanding what your network connections actually doing.
I realise this is quite an old post, however, just a list of some helpful resources to get started in hacking or pen testing. Some of the tutorials may mention Kali linux, but 99% of the same tools are on Parrot, and the use of them is the same. (I posted this list on the Kali forums around 4 months ago, and so far its gotten over 5,000 views, so it can’t be bad)
The following list is by no means exhaustive, but is a good place to start your hacking journey. The best way to get started is to create several virtual machines on your own system, with several operating systems on there, and then you can install deliberatly vulnerable web apps and services on them, and hack them with your tools and learn how it all works.
Remember, an Ethical hacker is someone who helps secure the web from malicious activity, not someone who exploits it. Not to mention that if you start hacking on web servers and networks without permission, in most countries this can land you in lots of trouble and long jail terms!
Learn your way around Unix based systems, and that includes BSD, Linux and Mac OSX they all share a lot underneath; https://www.cyberciti.biz/
Learning Perl regular expressions will help you in your hacking journey;
Get to know the MITRE framework and how vulnerabilities are being exploited; https://attack.mitre.org/
Some of this site can be a couple of years old, but in general, the way of doing things hasn’t really changed, so it’s a good beginner starting point to get to know some tools;
A few years old now, this tutorial series from Packt publishing does focus on kali, but most of the same tools are in Parrot and its based on Debian the same, and the set up of virtual machines and everything else is the same 99% of the time.
It is also a good way to get an idea of the steps you would take, and in what order, and it goes over some of the main tools;
There are so much methods as 1, nr.2 There is a www about free education although for most outdated. Want to be a hacker? ok, so learn to be invisible would be your first to worry about which is a whole concept and approach. Then bash (Referred as Linux code but is powershell or Bourne after shell or on win Powershell) and any other code of choice my preference is Python as it apply on all OS types and C but that is more difficult, Linux distributions and common commands you will need many times. Hack The Box, and Privilige Escalation on the 3 OS types like win, XOS and Linux. Believe me that way is long and it is a rabbit hole. Good luck sir. I forgot to mention network basics. In short sir, just download the Hack The Box edition, it is a good introduction and education.
