Hello guys, I was not paying attention and during the installation of Windows 10, instead of formatting the C drive, I deleted it, and now I don't know what to do, please help me.
I've watched dozens of your videos in the last few months and they have been instrumental in pulling me out of the career slump I've been in, and rekindling my passion for tech. This one was a pleasure all the way through- probably my favorite yet. Would love to see more content from both of these guys. Justin's thoughts on mental health were particularly sobering and really cannot be stressed enough to anyone in/interested in IT.
Hell yeah, good for you! I certainly agree as well. The genuine candor and sincerity for guiding others on their path is incredibly refreshing. Hands down this is the most personally impactful content I have come across in a long while. I know many others who will benefit from this as well.
David I am an afghan and living in Afghanistan I am always waiting for your new videos and thanks for encouraging and all free tutorials you provided for us I wish a long life for you .
Once again I am astounded by the caliber and depth of conversation in these interviews. This truly meaningful and real-life information is priceless, thank you very much gentlemen!
Thank you for this and other videos you’ve made. I turn 35 in a couple months and I’m the middle of learning information security for a career change. I’ve never worked in IT. I have had an interest in IT but never went down that path. I just got laid off from the finance/mortgage industry since the economy is tanking. I need something more secure that’s challenges me. Info Security seems like it what I need and your videos have helped so much. Two months in I’ve already learned SO much about everything IT. I’m so excited to see where this takes me in life.
I'm late 40's coming up to retirement from a Cyber role in law enforcement looking to join the real world. Your videos are of such high quality and with such experts in their fields. The problem is there seems to be too many enticing areas to make an easy decision of where you want to go. That said everything these days seems to relate to Python, from memory forensics to Pentesting. I didn't get that far into this video before ordering Justin and Tim's book. Keep up the amazing work David.
David, i just found your channel yesterday, and have watched maybe 15 diff ones....binge watching...I wanted to thank you for what you are doing! Keep doing what u do, dont ever change. The service you provide us humans whom dont know much about what is really going on, im sure you receive your share of criticism, but all in all, your doing the right thing...Thank you David, for having the balls!
An Extension Course on the book will be awesome! I got the book about 2 months ago and still have to work through it, so I'm amazed to see that you made this doc on it!!! Thanks, David! Much appreciated!
Good day good people,am a new student in IT industry, i was afraid to it because i didn't do good at school, but now hearing your encouragements, am confidant to ride with billion kilometer per hour, thank you so much, God bless you all
Great video, great bunch of guys. A more modern approach regarding ADHD as he mentions is, that it's not a diagnose. It a type of human, it's a description of a mindset. ADHD people has for thousands of years been the energy sources, the ones creating change and innovation. Their restless minds tells "this is boring, let's do it smarter". In our modern society, with strict rules and "sit down, shut up, enjoy your boring life",- their energy is disturbing. We better call it a disease and invent some medicine killing their energy.
Really love these interviews. You always seem to find these very interesting and unconventional minds, that have important messages about education and developing, it's very inspiring. Thanks for that David!
I haven't seen the whole video yet, but it seems lovely and I want to see more! Thank you for sharing David! These two (and you too David) young gentlemen are inspiring!
@@davidbombal You're absolutely correct!! The advices all of you shared are solid gold... ❤️ I usually watch videos on x1.5 speed, but this one is different... I couldn't mess with it... and I could listen for hours...🤓
one of my favourite quotes by Nietzsche (you can substitute programming for philosophy as you wish) ''Let no one be slow to seek wisdom when they are young, nor weary in the search of it when they have grown old, for no age is too early or too late for the health of the soul, and to say that the season for studying philosophy has not yet come, or that it is past and gone, is like saying that the season for happiness is not yet, or that is is now no more"
Hmmm, I didn't hear Vim from either of them... not real programmers (ha ha ha j/k!). I've always loved to learn how tools work and then make my own. I suck at programming, but I love it and this kind of content is a great watch! I'm about to turn 40 and I'm finally diving deep into python, hacking and OSINT and I've gone to therapy for my depression and very bad OCD... Life is getting better and you're never too old to do anything! Please keep doing these kinds of interviews because they're awesome. Great work as usual, David!
I'm so so happy I found your page, the amount of raw information I have gained from it amazes me. Truly I can't thank you enough, I'm in my early 30's and intend to make this a career. I have always played around, even back years ago with Cain and Abel, making certain player lag on a certain game on a certain game network while I just walked around and killed them all and then let it all catch up again. I had no clue what I was doing even, but since then I have always been into things like this just never dove in, until lately, but finally I have decided what to do with my life and hopefully to make a positive impact. Thanks for the excellent information and the variety of topics you have episodes on.
yes most times when we see these guys we think they are more human in way and that they have everything figured out but that is hardly the case as they have stated. Thanks to y'all for this free info we are grateful
I appreciate what Justin had to say about investing in mental health. I think that I am very fortunate to have a faith based community that is very supportive of my challenges in general. That I am able to engage on a weekly basis is my therapy. I am also appreciative that panel is very supportive of those of us who are late bloomers
This might be the most relative video in relation to the staff i have passion learning to do i've in seen on youtube, Thanks Mr Bombal for organizing this kind of interaction.
The videos you’re making are legit changing my life, the books I’m reading and the people I’m discovering because of your work is priceless. Thank you sir thank you!
So awesome. My two favorite topics I’m learning! Also really good near the end.. Have been seeing someone about mental health and ADD myself at a close age to him. Wow very cool to hear.
Great interview. ~54:25 resonated with me and my prior career in finance at a big bank in US (not IT). Now that I'm on the cybersec path I look back at ALL of the MAJOR vulnerabilities, both physical and with technology, that were norms. from an insider perspective, it would feel almost meaningless to do all of the pentest work, and in the end the company is lackadaisical. human habits die hard, and not much investment is made proactively. In my role, I felt so far removed from the impact of my hard work, and at the end of the day it was all about being the major income source for the bank. My desire to make an impact, and see it through on a more personal level, is what led me to the path I'm on now. Thanks David for being a positive and encouraging resource.
I love David Bombal, I try to watch everything he puts out. I just finished a CompTIA Net+, Sec+, and CCNA courses through the VA at an IT school for Veterans. Have applied to over 115 jobs in the past 2 months. Can't get a job anywhere. Everyone wants you to have a PHD for an entry level IT job. It's depressing and discouraging out here! So desperate for someone in IT somewhere to give me a chance to get started. Can't get a job without experience, can't get experience without a job. Yay :(
taboos 101: mental health is very important. Be open, be willing to work a lot on your health and take the time for it. When I say do a lot, in reality, I say keep focusing on your body and thoughts. Observe. Be aware of what you are aware. What is time? How much of your time and effort are you using up for what? Take some time to digest those thoughts.
16:27 very true, the better way is to learn what's needed as we go, not learn everything at once then forget most of them and relearn the second time when we re-encounter them
Thanks for the video. I was considering using VS Code and this made me feel good about it. I am just starting down the cyber crime path and appreciate your great training and idea sharing vids.
Another great episode David, such cool authors! This episode resonated with me on so many different levels. Thank you for sharing and for the great advice!
Hey David, I studied computer networks and worked in companies related with networking (pretty well known) and have close contact with networking protocols. Sadly I was always afraid of code and went down the route of testing. Programming is not easy, that's way it is well paid. Your content is brilliant. Great content all the time! Interviews very well conducted. I wish you were my mentor at college. I would probably be in cyber sec. by know as you are extremely inspirational!
Great episode/interview! It just perfectly encapsulated where I'm at in my education/career change. I'm at the end of my 2 year degree in cybersecurity and digital forensics and law, and a 2nd degree in advanced network admin, and I'm excited to check out the hunch site; it sounds almost tailored to what I've been learning. I'm 47 years old, machinist all my life, coming to IT 2 years ago when covid hit, with no IT background. I prefer doing networking stuff to security and forensics, if I had to choose, but this content covers all of it, really. I love this interview. Oh, and intro to python is a class I have next quarter. I've played with it a little, but for loops and if/then statements confuse the hell out of me.
I understand the quality and resources that’s relevant to learning what you want to learn so far I’ve been lucky enough to reach a point that I haven’t had to really spend a dime! When I seen the two books I will recommend it I was happy given the fact that I got both of them gray hat Python But I only had the first edition of Black hat python either way I know That it really don’t make a difference What form they’re in but all of my coding books are in PDF! If anybody would like a copy I’ll share!
Thank You for an excellent video. I have started down the road of cyber security (CND) just so I protect myself and my family. I hope that I can someday make a career of it and I'm in my 50's.

Best quote from any podcast ever. One that speaks to the individual. I'm amphetamine sulphate dependant and "speed really is not the problem" adds a layer of cognitive dissidence within the heart. Peace and love. Good example of a sigma personality type, the genius, hero character and the teacher. And David talking about England in England with that weird accent, the south African with coliquial language is fucking trippy as hell man. Podcasts are the best evolution of music and your well interesting and humeousless enough so I'm not walking and burst out laughing lol peace and love
Hey David... I really love how explanatory and detailed your videos are. Could you please make a Video on IDORs. A detailed explanation of what they are, what they look like and the threats they pose to users or even the site. How to manually find them too and automate them also. Thanks. Chris from Nigeria.
Such a great chat! Thanks for the interview, David! Thank you all for emphasizing how important mental health is! I'm a Meditation Coach (and full stack secdevops dude...) if anyone reading me is interested!
hey tim, If you see this, i would for sure be interested in your knowledge and skills. Just some things i am interseted in are maybe some code walktroughs from projects of yours, or some lessons on the chapters you discuss in the book, but with full code walktrough and explenation. I hope you do know everyone who knows anything less than you do, will learn from this. :)
@@jms_dot_py You look like such a nice guy, Justin. Have you ever thought of yourself as a tool who writes tools or do you try just not to think about it?
I’ve had that book when it first came out, information in there is golden. Remember making my own netcat, port scanner, and low level device connections. It was the book that solidified my love of python to this day, the most useful programming language of our time.
I just came across this and it caught my attention - though the top review on goodreads seems to be quite negative (and has the most thumbs up). Talks about requiring root access to the server you're penetrating - which seems backwards. Your comment however seems to give a different view that the tools/code being built would only require root access on the dev machine to build and not the one you're testing. Thought I'd at least ask see if someone neutral could clarify!
@@tentaklaus9382 definitely some of the tasks require root privileges but only on your dev machine. Of course in a real pentest there are many ways to get to root :)
It's funny how they describe LaTeX. In the scientific world, in particular math and physics research academia which I am part of, it is the mainstream tool to write papers and documents. Most people use it daily. I have gotten used to think of it as a mainstream thing, rather than something old and exotic.
Thank you guys for taking to IT I am kind disaponted to my self because I did not do when it was a time, Now I am kind old 45 I am feeling old to learn but I am at school leaning new things
I've played around with Java 2, JavaScript, C, C++, Q Basic. For some reason, regular C makes the most sense to me. I don't like how C++ is super organized into multiple files.
I asked a few months ago for book in the store and it was 53€ 😅😅so cause that was basically my weekly money I downloaded a pdf version of it. Sorry for pirating guys😅😅But your book is really fantastic
Funny story. I was in a bad relationship. Suggested couples therapy to remedy. Partner agreed. Went in intending to get her help. She rejected everything, lied and manipulated to escape. I stayed, received counseling, ended the relationship as a result. Happy and healthy today. Talking to a professional does help in some cases, maybe not the way you think it will. Worth a try for sure though. Thanks
David, Thank you for all the information you put out and you dedication to inform and educate the community. A few years ago I decided to go back to school and get a second bachlors degree in Computer Networking and Cyber Security, but stop 5 courses short about a year ago because I felt the theory I was being taught could be achieved in the first week by googling or watching youtube.and wasnt adequate enough to actually be successful in the field. I felt embarressed that I was so close to getting a degree yet was no closer to having any real knowledge to contribute. The question I, like so many other have is how do you actually do Ethical Hacking? How do you turn theory and a the foundation learned at the University into action? Everyone is so reluctant to identify a clear path for someone looking to get into the field to follow and I always hear the experts say "There is not clear path"" or "The path is different for everyone". I disagree - I dont know if this is your intent, but you have also disagreed with those statements directly or indirectly with the content you put out. There is a clear path - 1) First understand the functions of an operating system - how does it work? Familarize yourself both with Windows and Linux. Understand the foundation of Kernals, shells, filing systems, CLI, system logs etc so you can navigate the OS's. 2) Learn a programing language (ie: Python) so you can automate processes and write scripts to save time. Learning a programing language helps you understand how things work. If you first understand how things work then you can learn how to break them - Tim mentions this in the video - His programing background allowed him to grasp the understanding of how to apply the theory and proceed to an outcome. In one of your previous videos you had a guy on talking about BugBounty. He outlines the same concept. This allows you to not just be bounded to only understanding a specific situation where the stars line up, but be able to actively identify situations so you can utilize tools to solve problems. Languages like Java script and HTML for web attacks, Java for reverse enginering applications or gaining access to mobile devices with java payloads, SQL injections and tools like B.E.E.F for browser explotation frame work. Nmap and Wire Shark for network analysis. In this video you presented another tool - a book "Black Hat Python" All the experts show examples of specific systuations where things look, but never provide resources to allow individuals to be able to come to the conclusion themselves. Throughout your content you are the only content provider I have come across that has created a foundation for bridging the gap between theory and application. Thank you for the content and countinued dedication to your followers.
I've read both editions of the book, it's a really good book, but I have one small comment about the book. There's really no explanation for the code he wrote, He needed to explain the scripts he created more so that the beginners could have a clearer understanding.
The difference between script kiddies and professionals is the difference between merely using other people's tools and writing your own. Charle Miller, from the foreword (1st edition).
This is a great book if you want to learn Python for hacking and penetration testing. Sometimes the tools you want to use are not available on target systems and the only option is to use Python - so learn the tools and techniques you can use with Python in a pentest or ethical hacking situations.

I'm new to Python and hacking and just purchased their book, I wish had learned about hacking 10yrs ago. Thank you!
Really enjoyed this conversation packed with so much wisdom and industry insights. This is keeping it real and relevant... Thanks David!
You're welcome!
This might be the most relative video in relation to the staff i have passion learning to do i've in seen on youtube, Thanks Mr Bombal for organizing this kind of interaction.
love your videos keep pushing it out man! inspires me not to give up when im stuck and keeps me working towards a pentesting career!
The videos you’re making are legit changing my life, the books I’m reading and the people I’m discovering because of your work is priceless. Thank you sir thank you!
Thank you! So happy to hear that my videos are helping you 😀
What u think bout the BHP book?
So awesome. My two favorite topics I’m learning! Also really good near the end.. Have been seeing someone about mental health and ADD myself at a close age to him. Wow very cool to hear.
Great interview. ~54:25 resonated with me and my prior career in finance at a big bank in US (not IT). Now that I'm on the cybersec path I look back at ALL of the MAJOR vulnerabilities, both physical and with technology, that were norms. from an insider perspective, it would feel almost meaningless to do all of the pentest work, and in the end the company is lackadaisical. human habits die hard, and not much investment is made proactively.
In my role, I felt so far removed from the impact of my hard work, and at the end of the day it was all about being the major income source for the bank.
My desire to make an impact, and see it through on a more personal level, is what led me to the path I'm on now.
Thanks David for being a positive and encouraging resource.
AWE-SOME video.
Thanks once again to David Bombal and his team.
this was one of my newest favorite videos youve posted
Nice to hear from people in front of their books. Front because the books are their legacy they leave behind for people like us, Nice job!
Great podcast, great book, great authors! Have had this book for about a month now. Best python book I own. Thanks David!
Thanks so much for buying the book, Joe! We really appreciate it!
I love David Bombal, I try to watch everything he puts out. I just finished a CompTIA Net+, Sec+, and CCNA courses through the VA at an IT school for Veterans. Have applied to over 115 jobs in the past 2 months. Can't get a job anywhere. Everyone wants you to have a PHD for an entry level IT job. It's depressing and discouraging out here! So desperate for someone in IT somewhere to give me a chance to get started. Can't get a job without experience, can't get experience without a job. Yay :(
Tim should teach programming . We youngins need more.
I bought it at Defcon this year and is really good
taboos 101: mental health is very important. Be open, be willing to work a lot on your health and take the time for it. When I say do a lot, in reality, I say keep focusing on your body and thoughts. Observe. Be aware of what you are aware. What is time? How much of your time and effort are you using up for what? Take some time to digest those thoughts.
I've been waiting for this videooooooo..... Thank you so much
16:27 very true, the better way is to learn what's needed as we go, not learn everything at once then forget most of them and relearn the second time when we re-encounter them
Thanks for the video. I was considering using VS Code and this made me feel good about it. I am just starting down the cyber crime path and appreciate your great training and idea sharing vids.
Another great episode David, such cool authors! This episode resonated with me on so many different levels. Thank you for sharing and for the great advice!
Hey David, I studied computer networks and worked in companies related with networking (pretty well known) and have close contact with networking protocols. Sadly I was always afraid of code and went down the route of testing. Programming is not easy, that's way it is well paid.
Your content is brilliant. Great content all the time! Interviews very well conducted. I wish you were my mentor at college. I would probably be in cyber sec. by know as you are extremely inspirational!
Great episode/interview! It just perfectly encapsulated where I'm at in my education/career change. I'm at the end of my 2 year degree in cybersecurity and digital forensics and law, and a 2nd degree in advanced network admin, and I'm excited to check out the hunch site; it sounds almost tailored to what I've been learning. I'm 47 years old, machinist all my life, coming to IT 2 years ago when covid hit, with no IT background. I prefer doing networking stuff to security and forensics, if I had to choose, but this content covers all of it, really. I love this interview. Oh, and intro to python is a class I have next quarter. I've played with it a little, but for loops and if/then statements confuse the hell out of me.
What a great story, thank you for sharing with us! Machinists always completely fascinated me when I worked with them, such a cool job.
I understand the quality and resources that’s relevant to learning what you want to learn so far I’ve been lucky enough to reach a point that I haven’t had to really spend a dime! When I seen the two books I will recommend it I was happy given the fact that I got both of them gray hat Python But I only had the first edition of Black hat python either way I know That it really don’t make a difference What form they’re in but all of my coding books are in PDF! If anybody would like a copy I’ll share!
Thank You for an excellent video. I have started down the road of cyber security (CND) just so I protect myself and my family. I hope that I can someday make a career of it and I'm in my 50's.

Thanks for grabbing a copy, it's greatly appreciated!
I wrote a binary parser in Python and now developing a front-end version using html, css and js.
Thanks David. These are so helpful discussions. Love it .
nice touch with the cup on top of JavaScript.. haha. out of jokes, this video was very useful, thank you Mr. Bombal, great guests
Best quote from any podcast ever. One that speaks to the individual. I'm amphetamine sulphate dependant and "speed really is not the problem" adds a layer of cognitive dissidence within the heart. Peace and love. Good example of a sigma personality type, the genius, hero character and the teacher. And David talking about England in England with that weird accent, the south African with coliquial language is fucking trippy as hell man. Podcasts are the best evolution of music and your well interesting and humeousless enough so I'm not walking and burst out laughing lol peace and love
Hey David... I really love how explanatory and detailed your videos are.
Could you please make a Video on IDORs.
A detailed explanation of what they are, what they look like and the threats they pose to users or even the site.
How to manually find them too and automate them also. Thanks.
Chris from Nigeria.
Thank you Chris. Great suggestion!
@@davidbombal You and InsiderPHD should colab on IDOR training
Are you the famous Nigerian prince?!😂
Just added this book to my library last week !
Awesome video. Just purchased the book! I look forward to learning the contents
Such a great chat! Thanks for the interview, David! Thank you all for emphasizing how important mental health is!
I'm a Meditation Coach (and full stack secdevops dude...) if anyone reading me is interested!
I hope this updated version is much more understandable🥰
Muchas Sr. David le agradezco mucho por subir videos traducido español. Excelente canal
hey tim, If you see this, i would for sure be interested in your knowledge and skills.
Just some things i am interseted in are maybe some code walktroughs from projects of yours, or some lessons on the chapters you discuss in the book, but with full code walktrough and explenation.
I hope you do know everyone who knows anything less than you do, will learn from this.
:)
This really interesting & Very Helpful.
The video really motivates.
Thank you David.
Thanks Sir for bringing this kind of interviews.
It really helps a lot . ❤️❤️
Wow. What an episode. This was suuuuuuper informative. Love this stuff.
This is going to be interesting! Thanks David 👍
Thanks David as always you never disappoint
i have this book i started it but put it down. Just reminded me to pick it back up and get to it
The hacker has become the hacked...
Yes, we need Tim to teach .
Such a great inverview! thank you!
Suprised no ones mentioning violent python, I really enjoyed it and it still retains some relevancy
TJ’s book is awesome!
I bought the book recently, it's awesome
Thank you so much! I really appreciate it!
@@jms_dot_py You look like such a nice guy, Justin. Have you ever thought of yourself as a tool who writes tools or do you try just not to think about it?
such a lovely talk by the expertssssss
I’ve had that book when it first came out, information in there is golden. Remember making my own netcat, port scanner, and low level device connections. It was the book that solidified my love of python to this day, the most useful programming language of our time.
I just came across this and it caught my attention - though the top review on goodreads seems to be quite negative (and has the most thumbs up). Talks about requiring root access to the server you're penetrating - which seems backwards. Your comment however seems to give a different view that the tools/code being built would only require root access on the dev machine to build and not the one you're testing. Thought I'd at least ask see if someone neutral could clarify!
@@tentaklaus9382 definitely some of the tasks require root privileges but only on your dev machine. Of course in a real pentest there are many ways to get to root :)
Thanks so much for the kind words, Brandon. Really appreciate it!
Thank you for great content on Cybersecurity!
You have been a great source of information on the domain and a great inspiration 🙏
Very GOOD Discussion!
That was an amazing interview. Thank you.
Enjoyed the video and started in the book.
One TCP client down, and the UDP client is next.
;-)
Great tnx from novice. I will start read this book today and I hope it will be first step to big path.)
It's funny how they describe LaTeX. In the scientific world, in particular math and physics research academia which I am part of, it is the mainstream tool to write papers and documents. Most people use it daily. I have gotten used to think of it as a mainstream thing, rather than something old and exotic.
Excellent video, David. I have this book very good teaching Python for security. Congratulations Justin!
Thank you so much! I appreciate it!
Love it! Just ordered the Book!
Thanks so much! We really appreciate it :)
Guys it's so important what You've said about mental health :)
Thanks again for this amazing vid, David!
amazing book, if there is python on a system, your getting that lateral movement :D
Thank you guys for taking to IT I am kind disaponted to my self because I did not do when it was a time, Now I am kind old 45 I am feeling old to learn but I am at school leaning new things
My favorite channel❤️❤️
this was a great video!!!
It's never about taking but rather giving. Spores propagate infancy as systems become intwined and indiscernible.
I've played around with Java 2, JavaScript, C, C++, Q Basic. For some reason, regular C makes the most sense to me. I don't like how C++ is super organized into multiple files.
I wanna know about the Sasquatch painting behind you. Awesome! 😊
I have two screen, The 2nd screen is yours, Cuz I always play your videos on my 2nd screen and coding on the 1st one
I asked a few months ago for book in the store and it was 53€ 😅😅so cause that was basically my weekly money I downloaded a pdf version of it. Sorry for pirating guys😅😅But your book is really fantastic
Boy I was watching your video but when new video I instantly switch
Thank you so much Ribor!
Python creates very large and even clunky programs. The tiniest, self reprogramming, and most invasive programming is Assembly and C.
What a great interview!
Lots of love to David sir from India 🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
You're welcome!
Damn a hacker got hacked 😂😬
Super interesting. Thanks David!
Funny story. I was in a bad relationship. Suggested couples therapy to remedy. Partner agreed. Went in intending to get her help. She rejected everything, lied and manipulated to escape. I stayed, received counseling, ended the relationship as a result. Happy and healthy today. Talking to a professional does help in some cases, maybe not the way you think it will. Worth a try for sure though. Thanks
Always presenting such fabulous content
What great opportunity Mr Bombal thx
You're welcome Majid!
David,
Thank you for all the information you put out and you dedication to inform and educate the community. A few years ago I decided to go back to school and get a second bachlors degree in Computer Networking and Cyber Security, but stop 5 courses short about a year ago because I felt the theory I was being taught could be achieved in the first week by googling or watching youtube.and wasnt adequate enough to actually be successful in the field. I felt embarressed that I was so close to getting a degree yet was no closer to having any real knowledge to contribute. The question I, like so many other have is how do you actually do Ethical Hacking? How do you turn theory and a the foundation learned at the University into action? Everyone is so reluctant to identify a clear path for someone looking to get into the field to follow and I always hear the experts say "There is not clear path"" or "The path is different for everyone". I disagree - I dont know if this is your intent, but you have also disagreed with those statements directly or indirectly with the content you put out. There is a clear path - 1) First understand the functions of an operating system - how does it work? Familarize yourself both with Windows and Linux. Understand the foundation of Kernals, shells, filing systems, CLI, system logs etc so you can navigate the OS's. 2) Learn a programing language (ie: Python) so you can automate processes and write scripts to save time. Learning a programing language helps you understand how things work. If you first understand how things work then you can learn how to break them - Tim mentions this in the video - His programing background allowed him to grasp the understanding of how to apply the theory and proceed to an outcome. In one of your previous videos you had a guy on talking about BugBounty. He outlines the same concept. This allows you to not just be bounded to only understanding a specific situation where the stars line up, but be able to actively identify situations so you can utilize tools to solve problems. Languages like Java script and HTML for web attacks, Java for reverse enginering applications or gaining access to mobile devices with java payloads, SQL injections and tools like B.E.E.F for browser explotation frame work. Nmap and Wire Shark for network analysis. In this video you presented another tool - a book "Black Hat Python" All the experts show examples of specific systuations where things look, but never provide resources to allow individuals to be able to come to the conclusion themselves. Throughout your content you are the only content provider I have come across that has created a foundation for bridging the gap between theory and application. Thank you for the content and countinued dedication to your followers.
I've read both editions of the book, it's a really good book, but I have one small comment about the book. There's really no explanation for the code he wrote, He needed to explain the scripts he created more so that the beginners could have a clearer understanding.
Thanks so much for this feedback, I appreciate it!
Great talk!
