The curriculum

Learn

Start anywhere. Threat modelling first is the honest recommendation — everything downstream depends on knowing who you are hiding from. Or follow a path, which is an order to take them in — or start from a scenario if you have a specific worry rather than a subject. If you want one specific thing rather than a course, every chapter is listed on its own.

Reconnaissance

Network Security

The four tools every assessment starts with, one module each. What each one actually asks, how to read its output rather than memorise its flags, and — for every one of them — what the scan looks like from the other end.

Cracking & Brute Force

Network Security

How passwords actually fall — offline against a stolen hash at a hundred billion guesses a second, online against a live login at four. Which hashes crack instantly and which never do, why the difference is the algorithm rather than the password, and what genuinely stops each attack.
