I'm new in this forum . Aged 16 years and I wanted to be a great programmer.
But actually wanted to be a hacker . Yeah . So I've learned
a variety of ways to hack . And has been successful in a variety of ways such as phishing , keylogging , steal cookies from a friend 's computer , fake hack tools in Visual Basic and more
But I eventually realized that I was just " script kiddies " and not a hacker . And I began to know how to become a real hacker . but I do not know where to start . So I want to ask you how I can be a real hacker . What do I need to master at first .what language I need to know first. So many people suggest me to learn Python first by I don't know what Python for and why I need to learn Python. can u suggest what eBook can I read .

Learn C++ and C#, get kali linux and learn how to hack wifis,pentest and what not. :)

Well at least you recognized that you're a skid, so I'll give you that.

Python can be used for automation (at least that's what I use it for,) scraping, botting, etc. but in the hacking world, it can be used for payload delivery, writing exploits fro vulnerabilities, and all kinds of other stuff. If you really want to know, read Violent Python, it's all about using python in the hacking world. Of course, it assumes you have the knowledge and understanding of Python and how it works, it's not a tutorial that's going to teach you how to use Python.

I made a really extensive thread on which language to choose, you can have a look here: https://hackforums.net/showthread.php?tid=5374258
Now, read this thread. https://hackforums.net/showthread.php?tid=4976270 Read it twice, make sure you understand everything.

What C++ and C# for? And can I ask what difference C++,C#,and C? Thanks you for your feedback.

So you are a skid you say, so you use other's already made scripts and tools and do not have the knowledge to make your own, and if you wanna make you own you copy paste code?

If that is the case, you will have to learn to code yourself then. You can start off the ones with easier syntax, like C#, python, java, html (phishing sites) etc. Then as you develop your skills move on to the more difficult (imo) languages such as C++, C, Delphi, etc.

It is always up to you. If you have the motivation, patience and time to become a L33T M4ST3R HAX0R ANOONYMOOSE 69 420 BLAZE IT then you are the right man for the challenge!

May I wish you luck on your great journey!

just break and bend software to your will...like the spoon in the matrix...lol

I just wanted to know your thoughts become hackers . So what you learn before you become a hacker

[pomwtin]

If you want to understand what you are doing and how to actually hack something, then you have to go all the way to the basics... Learn how thing that you want to hack works. Without this, no programming language will help you.

After mastering proccess behind something, you'll be able to identify and use its weakneses.

So yeah... one thing at a time

[ExploTools]

You are young so you sky is the limit but it costs personal life.

[Z3r0C0d3]

Start with programming , Python is great and easy language to learn also learn about Linux and Networking, cybrary.it has some great courses about Networking and Linux(well .... the course for linux is for begginers)

[Lante]

If you are a skid, you should know you need:
- Networking course
- (preferably a native) programming language experience
- Penetration testing courses

Learn and determine if you want to be a black hat hacker or a white hat hacker. Not sure if there is anymore types of hackers.

Python is a great language to start with programming, you can switch from python to c# you just have to understand the logics, once you know one language the rest will follow.. i'm 17 now and I had the same goal as you, wel now i'm getting paid for security checks on website's etc.. and I like to program game's .. I started out with Python and then went over to VB.net, VB.net is a real great language and it really teaches you alot about logics, then I started C#, C++ and now i'm learning Java, The fact is you can't fully learn a programming language there will always be problems and you will always learn new things in programming. the ride never ends but you keep learning. do your best and ebooks helps alot but get a course online for 10$ and you're ready to go.

No need for VB.net, really. There's Python for scripting and C# for general purpose practice and applications, and C++ for low-level programming, but you really do not need VB.net, nor Java to be honest.

Ignore everyone else. No offence but jumping into a language isn't the way to go.

What you need to do first, is learn the ins and outs of the computer system itself on a hardware level. Learn how I/O ports interact, how the HDD/SDD functions, how peripherals function, ETC.

Next, take a look at the internal scripting languages of each operating system. Windows has batch and powershell, and UNIX has the UNIX shell. These will give you the appropriate knowledge on how the system functions and give you a basic understanding of how to program. They're easy languages to learn and yet, very powerful within their own environment.

Once you've learned all that, i'd suggest you take a look at a language called Assembly. Assembly is by far one of the most powerful language available. It's a low level language that can be used to manipulate hardware which can be useful within malware. It's also somewhat of a "dead language" when it comes to malware.

If you don't want to learn assembly, you can learn C or C++. These are also great languages for not only creating malware, but for business software engineering. Knowing a language like this can land you a decent job in the future.

now, C# isn't a great language for malware. It's widely used for RAT's and crypters because of its ease of use and understandability. Although, it fails in comparison to C/C++ and assembly. It's also widely used for video game development.

Don't learn Java. Java is unfortunately a dying language and predict within in the next two-five years it wont be used at all and will be replaced. It is still a somewhat powerful language and can be used for malware but requires the Java Runtime dependencies.

Other languages like Python and Delphi can also be used for malware creation as well.

I see that you're fairly young. That gives you an edge. I'd suggest you start from the basics and slowly learn your way up the Computer Science Ladder. Once you hit college, you'll be given great opportunities for computer science classes and knowing all this stuff will you a great edge over the others.

One thing you need to remember though, is you don't learn to hack. You hack to learn. If you go into this just wanting to learn how to hack, you wont get as far as you'd hope. You need go into this trying to learn EVERYTHING you can. The computer science world is full of knowledge waiting to be plucked by your brain if you let it.
