Ok, secret is out now. I'm an "semi" retired Independent Security Research who is trying to Pay-It-Forward by bring totally new beginners into the security industry because of the huge shortage of qualified people to fill positions.
I started out in 1997 and spent about 10 years as an illegal hacker and then turned Independent Security Researcher around 2007(8) working mainly for DoD sub-contractors on malware attribution and vulnerability analyst among other things.
You're going to learn things through this series of training that you won't learn ANY WHERE ELSE. I have seen most all the security channel here on RU-vid, and at least the top selling security courses on Udemy and SkillShare to see exactly what people are learning because family & friends, have told me they spent a lot of money and still are confused. So I made this channel and apparently it has taken off with even with my boring, not edited, videos.
I checked out that account in your homepage, Cash Jordan. That dude uses generative AI to create pictures of black people looting, or congregating en mass, and then captions it stuff like "New York is saying no to homelessness" or "Nyc is rioting" Genuinely, some of the most disgustingly racist content I've seen on RU-vid lmao
I can't find any of my geocities pages, well I haven't looked in years, bc I was or am under the impression they are all gone, much like angelfire, it's been 30 years since I was doing that but thanks for the nostalgia
@@CyberSecJourn Ive been gathering a lot of information about cybersecurity, I've done a little coding so I understand basic CSS and HTML as ive worked with brackets to create my own web page before, but I may have lost that little zip file. Most of these courses kinda cost $$ which is unfortunate because I'm VERY broke, but im pretty interested in the area of cybersecurity analytics because I just love data and and don't quite think my hacking/programming skills are that of a red / blue team member... but slowly learning. Appreciate all the information given.
First loser (2nd) lol. So old man, is it ok for me to do what you said at 82.65% of the way into the vid? The 0th rule kind of insinuates otherwise. Been in for a bit, not too long, had question.
Very true, teaching is not a hackers forte for sure but hacker love only one thing really. And that's "Hacking." You know who's good a teaching? Those who can't hack! Just my opinion like the saying goes. "Those who can do and those who can't teach."
@@CyberSecJourn Thants true. But perhaps you can improve your Teaching Skills? You love John Hammand and David Bombal, so take a look at there videos and you can learn. i dont mean this disrespektfully, i like your skills and want you, to get more follower at YT.
@@horstlneumann8506 No disrespect taken I'm just here to give people a different point of view, maybe a little glimpse into an area they only wondered about, and to hopefully get more people into the cybersecurity field by helping them get their certs. I don't have a cert but I'm sure I wouldn't have a hard time passing one "but it's just pointless in my situation because I wouldn't be hired anyway and would be just a waste of money." But I respect your opinion and that's why I like John Hammond and David.
you have no idea what you are talking about hahaha lol when you're gonna start a carrier off of being a conman at least study body language first because its quite embarrassing with how poorly you lie...
I would recommend though. With these longer videos & raw footage. A camera or something with movement in the background while you talk would do you so much justice the people these days with phones attention spans are extremely low. You wanna grab and retain the people you have to set the hook in 12 seconds. After that and with anything to pull attention you’ll notice those algorithms move in no time promise. 💪
I'm not here to market to visitors. This isn't a e-commerce site, marketing site, etc. This is for people looking to learn the Cybersecurity field to get a job and actively doing so and I just provide FREE video training "to complement their current training" and giving my advice from a true "ex-illegal hacker turned ethical independent security researcher (with a touch of Grey)" point of view. This is going to be a VERY LONG and difficult journey so if they have problems with attention spans then my suggestion is McDonalds is hiring.
It’s gunna be math, it’s gunna be encryption, you’re gunna hate it. Lmaoooo I felt that. But without pain there’s no glory. You caught my sub off that 🫡
i like the fact that this guy is real he isnt someone like yo whats up guys welcome to this 3 minute turtorial to hack wifi he spends the first 15 minutes ranting to filter all of the attention deficite audience and starts swearing like a sailor when needed and teaches real world hacking awesome video
47:09 im not gonna lie i like when you explain new things that normally people don't explain , but personally i would love to just go hands on instead of just explaining
The hands on is coming but depending on what specifically you're looking for it could be awhile. I'm going to start everyone out learning Networking and then the terminal because this is where you will be living for most of your time. You can't get anywhere on the net "as a hacker" without mastering Networking and the terminal. The terminal is your vehicle and the Network is your highway. You can't even leave your house without having knowledge of either one.
Starting the morning right 👍 We should start with network fundamentals! I’m bogged down with all the protocols and behind the scenes things going on when hosts communicate with servers.
Definely, Networking is where I will be starting because it's in the terminal and on network is where you life will take place mostly so both of these will have to be second nature to you above anything else.
@@CyberSecJourn I agree there’s no point in using tools like wire shark if you don’t understand TCP, UDP, ARP and ports. That was me when I opened wire shark. I had more questions than answers for what I was seeing. I watched your last video and it made me start questioning what was on the tool.
new sub here love the teachings ty. remember keyhole industries? then google bought them and made it google earth. at that point i new things were gonna change.
You can't be surprised some leave in the first few minutes if you ramble about, no offense. For those that want to see what he has to offer 15:11 is when he actually starts doing something.
I truly feel that the companies don't care because they get their losses back in full!!! And look at Google and paying to get to the top of the search list!! RU-vid makes money with ads!!! I hate ads because they are full of lies!!! My first computer was a 256 with like half a mgb of RAM and floppy.
I want to have this man make me a book about what he knows!!! But it would have to be a book for dummies!!! I feel a person can be an ethical hacker and still get down and dirty when needed because no criminal does things to help anyone but themselves or the people they work for!!! RU-vid sucks!!!!!
@@CyberSecJourn All I have is time right now. I am living off grid in the mountains, wanting to do something with my life and I have always had a fascination with cyber security. Let me know how I can contact you.
@@CyberSecJourn All I have is time right now. I am currently living off-grid in the mountains in the middle of nowhere. I just want to do something with my life and Cyber Security has always fascinated me. Let me know how I can contact you,
@@CyberSecJourn All I have is time at the moment. I currently live off-grid in the middle of nowhere looking to do something with my life and I have always had a fascination with cyber security. Let me know how I can reach out to you!
@@CyberSecJourn Yes, I have plenty of time. I am living out in the middle of nowhere off-grid in the mountains...basically semi-retired, but wanting to change career paths.
Well, hopefully the wait was good. As usually there's story telling. This might be the last video with the stories because we DO need to get to work and actually get the studying on and learning something useful.
Just became an empty nester and have a lot of time on my hands. Fortunately, I have a job that has me working 4 days a week with 3 days to ponder how bored I am, LOL. I joined Try Hack Me a couple of days ago (although you mentioned that you feel HTB is better) and have been enjoying the lessons, even though its just the intro, but I have to start somewhere right? Anyway, I really enjoyed your story and honesty about your past. You have yourself a sub and will catch up with the rest of your videos. Good luck on your journey!
Not worried about the people leaving that's fine. It's the community on Discord that is supporting the channel and being I'm the only one providing the help not really looking for the channel to get too big so at some point the Discord will be Private. Appreciate your comment though.
@@CyberSecJourn Oh I understand now. I made the comment from the perspective of someone who clicked on this video out of the blue without context or anything. I am interested in learning security and I just stumbled upon this video. Joined the dc server to see if I could learn anything but so far I'm not even sure how it works
Thanks for this rare content, and for a personal point of view long format videos are greater for this kind of purpose, I personaly can't thank you enough for the philosophy and honest tutoring youre giving for free. GodSpeed and much Gratefulness
No problem, this is why I do it and hopefully I can get absolute new people into this industry and on their way to better things. It's a challenging but wonderful field.
Thanks for this, very informative video- I appreciate you touched upon anonymising tracks when snooping. But any tips in general from the setup of the device to connecting to vpn/ proxies to prevent and information breadcrumbs?
Yea, and I will get to it, but it's not easy because pretty much everything on the internet is trackable by authorities. And if authorities can track you then the bad guys can too. You have to understand being anonymous on the internet is vital importance for both the good guys and bad guys so it's a constant battle.
The discord link is working fine. This is a security server for beginners so "new accounts" are VERY restricted in a lot of way. First thing is "No New Account" if you just signed up for Discord VERY recently "You're Not Getting In." I won't got over all of them but yea. Might want to check some settings on your profile or nick name.
