Starting the Ethical Hacking Journey

Hi Dev Community!

I am so excited to begin my journey onto Ethical hacking and I have set my baby steps in it.
Hopefully I can learn more about ethical hacking and share my info here.

So as first I have learnt who a hacker is and I am surprised to know that hackers are people who know more about computers rather than the common definition of hackers which is gaining unauthorized access to data, these people are known as crackers.

Then the thing is that to become an ethical hacker we must think in the way of a cracker to solve bugs or loopholes.

Then I installed VMvare and installed Kali Linux into it!

These are my current updates!
