word from the
team
Dear readers,
Due to popular demand we decided to prepare a special issue dedicated to
those of you that seek an answer to the ultimate question: “How
to become a
hacker?”.
When you refer that question to Google you get an astonishing number of
360,000 results, each promising to make you a cybersecurity expert. Among
those are such beauties as “How To Become a Hacker - EPIC HOW TO“, “How
to Become a Hacker: 12 Steps (with Pictures)”, and “How To Become A Hacker
In 15 Minutes -- Or In 140 Characters Or Less“. The first is a video, the second’s a
WikiHow article, and the third is a Dark Reading post about a cybersecurity aware-
ness campaign from 2010. We thought about it long and hard, and decided to take an-
other route to give you answers - plural, because there is no single correct one.
We invited 13 specialists from cyber security and hacking fields to join this project.
They answered more than 20 questions about hacking, chosen by us from the dozens
we get every day. They presented their opinions and experience. They made lists of
their favorite online communities and resources.
While reading this issue you will learn what is the best tool for hackers. Is Kali Linux
truly the best OS for your hacking career? What about programming? Is it truly that im-
portant to have this skill while becoming a hacker? All of that and more, from 13 differ-
ent points of view, can be found in this issue.
Happy Holidays!
