Hacking without any technical skill and
knowledge is a dream that can’t come true, but what kind of technical
knowledge is required to become a hacker is the real question. The
intangible skills alone can’t give you success in the field of
information security, you need to have the in depth understanding of
how technology is actually working; you need to understand the
systems and processes, from electrical pulses to radio frequency,
from bits to bytes and from Windows OS to Linux OS. There are many
computer languages are required your attention but to follow the
right direction is the real deal that will lead you to your
destination.

Computer Networking

Operating System Skills

Programming & Scripting
Languages 

 

There is a saying
that, “Programming is not necessarily required to become a
hacker/infosec professional”. Let’s break it and try to understand
this saying, it is true that most of the successful penetration
testers don’t write code but it does not mean that they can’t write
or they don’t understand the coding. So understanding is the KEY, you
should understand the tool you are using for your test and don’t
forget the importance of manual penetration testing and code review.
