How to become a hacker

first of all and the most important thing is that you learn how to program. Programming not only makes you do cool stuff, but also think differently. you can start with an easy langauge called python that is used in building most of the hacking tools, of course you can use tools that are already built for penetration testing and hacking but if you really want to call yourself a real hacker you must know at least a scripting language(python...)

you need to work in a Unix enviroment, so grab a linux distribution(debian, ubuntu) and start playing with it, learn bash commands and get your self comfortable with the operating system then after that you can start learning pen testing programs like backtrack to analyse your target and gather information about vulnerabilities and exploits and then launch your attack with python.

you must know html and how the web works, what is a request and what is the deffirence between a get and a post request how does a backend server behave and how does it interacts with other components of the system, what is the difference between frontend and backend and how to do classic sql injection attacks.

look for tutorials in hacking forums and get your self involved by asking questions. read some hacking books. look for tutorails on blogs. and always try new stuff.


and finally hack yourself first and hack to learn, don't learn to hack.
