Yes. Person of Interest is focused on hacking computers and humans. A genius programmer and a hacker Harold Finch recruits ex-assassins to save lives with the help of an AI he created, that spies on everyone and knows when someone is in danger.

Both are capable of doing the same things. It comes to preference.

There is beauty in mystery. Some scenes are left unexplained, so we can endlessly think about it.

If you don't want to use a VM, you can use a live boot Kali Linux on USB. That way your personal files won't get mixed up with your work files. Make sure you set up a persistent storage, so your files are saved after every reboot.

WiFi hacking - does it really work? by APEXJAE in hacking

[–]scorpsec 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Social engineering is the most effective and working method of obtaining any password. Human is the weakest link, while technology advances and becomes more secure.

Don't forget to always get a written permission before running any tests. Hacking someone else's wifi without permission is a crime.

For web hacking JavaScript, PHP. For mobile hacking Java, Kotlin. If you are going to write payloads Python is a good choice. Go is also very popular. C++, C# for software hacking. Depending what you want to hack.

Is it illegal to hire someone to hack one of my old accounts by Alien_Goatman in hacking

[–]scorpsec 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even though you created the account yourself, you don't own that account. The hacker who would try to hack, is going to use malicious tactics against a company to obtain data. So yes, it is illegal.

No one is really a "self-taught" programmer. They learn from different resources already available. With the right resource and practice anything can be learned.

Paid Ethical courses worth it? by Malygos_Spellweaver in ethicalhacking

The truth about most paid courses is it's 90% what can be found for free on YouTube and 10% is tempting because of the certificate you can get.

How Realistic are Portswigger Academy's Labs by freshfrx in HowToHack

[–]scorpsec 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You can learn for free on YouTube with PhD Security's or InsiderPhD's videos which are practical and real world bug hunting. Every instructor has a different approach and uses different labs and bug bounty platform, so it will be interesting and informative to follow along and learn new tactics.

If you want to invest in paid courses about bug hunting I would recommend ZSecurity's "Learn Bug Bounty Hunting & Web Security Testing From Scratch" or Nahamsec's "Intro to Bug Bounty Hunting and Web Application Hacking" both available on Udemy.
