I am reading

Version 4.1 of owasp’s web testing guide. I have read 75 pages of Version 4. so this time as I read through the book I want to find a website from a bug bounty program and try the ethical hacking techniques as I read along in the book.

I won’t remember what I read if I don’t practice what I am reading. I think.

Ethical hacking Books

I watched a video by cristi vlad about two bug bounty books. I had heard of owasp web testing guide. I was unaware of owap’s mobile testing guide. So I downloaded both books. I had to keep going over the part of the video where cristi get the latest version of the mobile testing guide until I figured out what he was doing to get the most up to date version of that book.

I have been reading owasp’s web testing guide version 4 and was unaware that they game out with an updated version 4.1. I thought oh, no I have not even finished version 4.0. I figure I can read both versions.

I am excited to learn about android and ios hacking. I know nothing about how to hack them. So it will be fun to learn.

I hope to read both the web hacking book and the mobile hacking book. That is about 1100 pages. So that should be a piece of cake. Right. I will give it a try.

Its been over a year since

I decided I want to give ethical hacking a try. And do you know what? I have not tried to hack a website. I want to get ethical hacking. Websites are not going to hack themselves. A bug is not going to walk up to say hi. At this rate I am never going to find a bug because I never looked for one.

There are some bright spots. i have used burp suite a little. I have used owasp a little. I finished reading web hacking 101. I watched an ethical hacking course on youtube that was over 10 hours long. I have watched 2 bugcrowd university videos.

I wanted to make music. I now make music that no one wants to listen to. I wanted to make a show where I recorded myself playing video games. Its another thing that I make that no one wants to watch. Two things down.

Now I have ethical hacking in my sights. I am reading owasp testing guide and I want to get it finish. And I want to do capture the flags. Its going to take a lot of work for me to become an ethical hacker. I know that. Its work I want to put in.
