I highly recommend studying that series. Don't just comb over it. Study it, think, plan.

I will add this....

Quote:don't use your internet, use neighbors wifi

moving files, use sftp

pgp chat and email for coms, set up private email on your VPS, don't put info in the header as that is not encrypted.

multiple layer of encryption!!!! LUKS, CONTAINERS!!!! CONTAINERS WITH YOUR VM'S!!!

don't log anything!!!!

don't use your hacker handle outside of "work"

use abbreviated versions of your hacker handle when communicating. I.E (RustySnake) = Rust

don't contaminate work and personal data, keep them separate. I.E. Never do anything from your gaming rig. Have a separate machine for hacking or VM.

keep coms in a tight circle. need to know basis....

rent an offshore VPS and setup your own VPN

wrap your programs with TOR

FINALLY......DO NOT TALK TO COPS, EVER, ASK FOR A LAWYER INSTANTLY AND SHUT THE FUCK UP. SAME GOES FOR WHEN IN YOUR IN JAIL!!!!! SHUT THE FUCK UP BRO!!!!
