Internet has become a bandwagon of entertainment, education and business. It beats tradition mediums in terms of the benefits it offers. But unfortunately there is much scope of anonymity/privacy on the web and helps the cyber terrorists prey up on the Internet resources.

Hacking is a fraudulent act that is illegal in some ways and helpful in others. It is to know the programmable systems and how they work in a network. An ethical hacker shows the downfalls in the security system of an organization so they can improve it. An intelligent programmer can be a good ethical/unethical hacker. These days "hacker" is being used as a term for expert, intelligent and creative people. Let's discuss how to learn computer hacking:

10 Tips to Learn Computer Hacking

As told before, professional hackers are generally more intelligent than any average programmer. So becoming a hacker depends a lot on one's intelligence and efforts

1. Be curious: Curiosity is the mother of hacking. Look under the hood. Take things apart. Know the details of your system directories, file systems, system files. Look inside your computer.

2. Read a lot: Buy lots of books, go through the tutorials. Read the help files on your system. If you are using Linux/Unix read the man files.

3. Experiment: Take precautions and experiment whatever you read. Apply to work the idea that just hit your mind. Don't be afraid to change things. Doing this for a long time will give you much idea on the computer hardware and the operating system

4. Make backups: If you start mucking around with system files, registries, password files, and such, you will eventually destroy your system. Have a backup ready. If you can afford it, have a system you use just for experimenting, ready to reload on a moment's notice, and do your serious work (or serious gaming!) on a different computer.

5. Think out of box: Hacking is not restricted to computers only. You can try trick on other networks also like mobile, telephone, etc.

6. Get some real tools: You can find numerous hacking tools on the net. Though some serious tools are not available for free, you need to have some Hex file editors, Snoopers, Compilers and APIs. In addition you also need Scripting tools, Disk editors/formatters and Disassemblers.

7. Learn to program: Serious ethical hackers are always very good programmers. If you want to be a hacker, you're going to learn much programming. You should also be quite familiar with the popular operating systems like Windows, Linux, Unix, OS2 etc.

8. Discuss with peers: In isolation, you can't learn anything. You need to take classes, join users groups and computer clubs. Talking to people on IRC or other chat programs proves really helpful. Share what you learn. Because to get something you have to give some.

9. Do some projects: Pick some projects and work consistently until you've finished them. Real time experience is better than reading. Build from ground zero, learn to create icons, associate it with some files, read how the search engines search, try to manipulate the programs that you use daily.

10. Use the Internet: There is no source greater than the Internet. Start with the Web. Learn how to use Boolean searches. Bookmark all those sites which you find worth visiting. Sometimes you will find useful information at the strangest places.
