Hi,

I created a free Burp Suite video tutorial. I think it is perfect for people starting web hacking, or just need a good intercepting proxy. You can find it here:

Thanks for your Help Samhouston

Hey I’m new to basically everything when it comes to hacking.Is It possible to go from no computer experience to a professional hacker? Right now I’m studying python and I intend to get the books mentioned above. Thx for any help.

Yes it is, just don’t get discouraged when you hit rough spots, like anything else set realistic goals for yourself. A good starting point is the OWASP Testing guide https://www.owasp.org/index.php/OWASP_Testing_Guide_v4_Table_of_Contents and the OWASP Broken Web Apps virtual machine https://www.owasp.org/index.php/OWASP_Broken_Web_Applications_Project

New to this bug bounty, how should i start and learn

Hi I am 16 years old and I want to get to hacking but my family says study the certificate is the thing that will make you money not hacking but I want to ask you can you make a living out of hacking or no

I’m new as well and only 18 but to be honest bounty hunting is all about what you put into it. Certification proves you passed a standardized test that had the information it needed. I only have an ITF certification which is the very basics to IT. You can know that information without a certification. That is how you get a job don’t think that you need a degree or certification it just proves to other people you know what you are doing.

Thanks Sam! If I know of a simple bug but important not related to Security / Vulnerability will I be able to report it and earn money for it? This is for Atlassian products.

Sir i am new here. I am very interested in hacking but I didn’t know from where should I start. Will you help me.

So im mostly new to the bug bounty/pentesting. I have been looking at the certs and are there any out there that are good for newbs?
