How to become a Hacker? Preface.
This question arises in many children during the first research networks, programmes and algorthims. If you're thinking about how to become a Hacker, and this is serious, let me shake your hand - your research approach is a matter of respect!
For the first time, I got to thinking about how to become a hacker, at the age of 17. Don't remember what convinced me to drive the query in poisonou system, but I guess that my thoughts were not the cleanest... Since then many years have passed, I've changed, changed, and my aspirations. Now I'm addicted to programming, and we create serious web projects. The team, which was created this site, collapsed... and the concept of website has evolved. More about this you can read on page "About". But we digress from the question "How to become a hacker?".
On the subject of hacking already created not a few different guides, and I don't see much sense to redo it. The purpose of this article is to organize data from many sources and composed into one large manual. In the end, reading it, you will be able to better understand in which direction to move to reach its goal of becoming a Hacker.
It only remains for me to wish you good connection on your great and interesting way.
Basic hacking skills
1. Learn programming.
Without this skill it is very difficult to become a hacker. And if you think that programming is very difficult - not true. Nwiki basic programming you can get yourself a few hard days spent in front of the monitor, in the study of the relevant articles. Personally, I was never taught programming at the age of 17 I felt the desire to write his own programs. And studied independently, spending the night in studying books and reading articles. Since then, I stopped wasting time on computer games and the computer has become my work space.
It is working. My entire income comes from the Internet. Remembering how many days I killed in the game, I feel sorry for the lost time.
2. Tame The Internet
You may be masterly own Network, communicate in social networks, and have your CS server with friends. But it's all garbage... You have to understand how the Internet, understanding the interaction between server and browser know the value of headers (HTTP) sent to the server by the client. Without this knowledge the answer to the question how to become a hacker to find.
Learn the history of the Internet, teach basic concepts, learn to understand what IP, Proxy. It is important, however.
3. Teach Hypertext markup language.
This is the first thing you need to do. I'm talking about HTML in conjunction with CSS. Maybe you did sites at ucoz or on narod.ru using standard templates, but to call it a Saito structure is impossible in any case.
The HTML you will need not only to create their own sites, but in order to communicate with the server and access the php scripts, undeterred from strings of the form:
input autocomplete="off" class=lst type=text name=q maxlength=2048 value="how to become a hacker"
4. Don't ask stupid questions
I'm talking about hacking forums and websites, but also about services such as "Question / Response from Google. The Internet is full of information and you do research yourself.
If the time has come when you really need help, remember a few rules:
- be polite. You are asking for help from more experienced people, and no one you don't have to.
- cutting issue. Lay out the results of their searches, and what you have achieved, so people will know that you have made independent attempts to find the answer to your question.
- write the correct solution. If you yourself found the answer to your question, no need to write something like: "thank you All, problem solved, all by yourself." Remember that your thread will be found through the search for people who still have not found the answer to this question. Think about it, when I close the topic - spread the right decision.
5. Learn English.
English is the standard in the Internet. And although we've got our own domain type .Russian, but English will not go away.
For all global services, English is the standard. And the sooner you begin to study it, the better for you.
6. Help newcomers.
While you may not know much, but we should not conceal information from others, whose knowledge is at a level much smaller than you. Imagine that everything in the world could conceal the necessary information, a lot of it then you would have learned?
This also applies to your future programs.. don't hide source code from others. Write Open Source apps, after all, is the engine of progress.
7. Teach basic hacking skills
But before that a bit of morality: the code of the Hacker.
Then, you can study the Technology of XSS attacks. But you will need knowledge of HTML and a little PHP.
Learn how to cover your tracks after hacking. In the first place. For starters, you can read an article about the Anonymity of the Internet. If interested, you can read how custom sposobom to steal ICQ: Attack on ICQ
Here are the text from a famous HACK-F. A. Q.
I don't know, but I want to become a hacker. Where to start?
Believe me, I want to live in peace, better not to start...
But I still really want to do?
Well, to begin with, not to ask this question in the forum.
First, determine who the hacker: this creature, which has a computer (well, it is a must), two arms (one for mouse, another for beer), head (for headphones) and the fridge (well, not warm beer to drink!). If you have all that, then you have all chances to become a real hacker ;) Oh Yes, almost forgot, the hacker needs to be a non-standard way of thinking!
Why would the hacker a non-standard way of thinking?
It's very simple. Hacker on "you" with the computer and with the Internet, and thus does not need anyone's help – all the information he can find in the search resources. If you learn this simple truth, you will be able to quickly achieve success. Trust me, base yandex.ru and google.ru answer 90% of questions, so if you don't want to wait several days for a response, use that to your advantage. This is their "little secret"; how do they know so much. And do not be afraid to be original!
Oh.. and I'm such a LAMER that even search engines are not able to use.
Stop. LAMER is the only one who does nothing. I remember about 90%? Never forget this number. Go to yandex.ru you enter the query "information retrieval using search engines and voila – get to the page http://www.poiskinfo.net/stat/st1.php where all described in detail how to look for and where. Read, and after 15 minutes, you'll be a specialist in searches. :)
But if all you can find, what for then a forum?
First, the forum is a community of people with common interests. They discuss everything from the weather, and ending with interesting hacks, but that doesn't mean they will be happy to deal with your problem.
Second, think again about 90%. Remains 10% of the questions, the answers to which do not yet in search engines, or they are so well hidden that never to find. Well, then you have every chance to ask your question first. If he has not met, most likely, your descendants, faced with the same problem, will get it on your subject. So try to set it right.
How to ask correctly?
A wonderful article about how to ask questions: ln.com.ua/~openxs/articles/smart-questions-ru.html. Try to read at least the key points, it will greatly increase the chance that you will respond and help.
Damn, and here I asked on the forum, but I have not answered even after a week. Yes, there they do know nothing!!!
So you have not read this wonderful article: ln.com.ua/~openxs/articles/smart-questions-ru.html. Spend 10-15 minutes, so you do not waste the days... Believe me, it's worth it.
If you do not get even that, let's not to become hackers, OK? :)

So don't be shy to ask him questions such as "what is ...", he knows everything. Let this be our secret :)
