How To Become A Hacker.
For learning Ethical Hacking, Assembly level programming is not necessary. Its like another stream of hacking environment.
Let me tell you, Who Needs to Learn Assembly language :
-> Malware Analysts.
-> Code Exploit Writers.
-> Reverse Code Engineers.
-> Shellcoders.
-> Software Vulnerability Analysts.
-> Bug Hunters.
-> Virus Writers.
If you want to become one among the above, You have to.. I hope you undertsand.
Let be clear, tell you the tools and platform used for Assembly language: Before we starts writing assembly programs, let me tell you which tools and platform we are going to use.
Development Platform:-
Linux: we will use Kali-linux which is a Debian-derived Linux distribution designed for digital forensics and penetration testing.
You can download it from here: Penetration Testing and Ethical Hacking Linux DistributionAssembler :- GAS (The GNU Assembler) : The GNU Assembler is used to convert ARM assembly language source code into binary object files.
You don't need to download it. It is installed by default in Kali-linux.Linker:- ld : it is a tool used for linking GNU linker (or GNU ld) is the GNU Project's implementation of the Unix command ld.
It is also installed by default in Kali-linux.
4.Debugger:- GDB : GDB, the GNU Project debugger, allows you to see what is going on 'inside' another program while it executes -- or what another program was doing at the moment it crashed.
GDB can do four main kinds of things (plus other things in support of these) to help you catch bugs in the
act:
1.Start your program, specifying anything that might affect its behavior.
2.Make your program stop on specified conditions.
3.Examine what has happened, when your program has stopped.
4.Change things in your program, so you can experiment with correcting the effects of one bug and go on to learn about another.
It is also available in kali-linux.
People always ask me how i learnt Hacking
What i actually did was that I read true crime hacker books like Cyberpunk and The Hacker Crackdown and lots of older Legion of Doom Technical Journal on BBS. However i devoted more time for programming and coding.
