Where to learn virus removal/white hat hacking - Motiv - Aug 19, 2015
So I've dabbled in a couple areas in blackhat things, but it's just not for me. I'm more interested in getting rid of the virus rather than creating it. I was hopin there was a good place to learn virus removal and protection. I know there's a forum page called malwarehelp or something like that that offered lessons on HF, but their classroom is full. If anybody has any good places or tips, let me know.
Thanks!

Your signature basically describes me. Looking for a fresh start and a good place to learn.

My reply comes from zero knowledge about malware removal, take it with a grain of salt.
Pickup Windows Essentials (Sixth Edition best)
Learn Networking on a good level - OSI model, monitoring networking, using wireshark etc
download documentation on popular malware and see it's breakdown, then learn how malware operate - how does things like registry, services, drivers, kernel, runtime, ::DATA stream, processes, memory, storage types etc etc etc all come together and contribute in malicious development. Learning Assembly/C is a huge bonus.

How I learned how to remove almost all RATs was to just download them from for example YouTube onto a VM (since there are many fake cheats that are RATs there) and tried to remove them with the little knowledge I had. Just trial and error. I guess this would work for most malware. Just download to a VM and try for while. I know this is not the best way to learn to become a professional but works.
