Programming languages for hackers

These are the programming languages required to learn if you want to become a professional hacker.

1). HTML:

      

        • As most of the people say that HTML is not a programming language; but before saying that we have to know that  Technically HTML is a programming language. Infact, HTML stands for Hyper Text Markup Language. And it is upto you how you treat it as.

     • If you want to be a good security researcher then i will recommend you to learn SQL so that you can find flaws in the website and you can report to the particular organization.

 EXPLOIT PROGRAMMING:

5). PYTHON:

     • As a security researcher or a hacker you should know python because it is a core language for creating exploits and tools.

      • Security researchers and even pro hackers suggest that mastering python is the best way to learn hacking.

      • python offers wider flexibility and you can create exploits only if you are good in python.

6). RUBY:

      • Ruby is a simple yet complicated object-oriented language.

      • Ruby is very useful when it comes to exploit writing. It is used for meterpreter scripting by hackers.

      • The most famous Metasploit Framework is also programmed in Ruby. 

         Though Ruby may not be versatile as python. Knowledge of Ruby is must in understanding exploits.

     BASH:

     • Learning Bash will definitely useful in writing small scripts for automation.

FOR WRITING/UNDERSTANDING SHELL CODES, ROOT-KITS, EXPLOITS etc.,

C, C++

     More than 60% of the exploits you will find on the web are written in C C++. Learning C C++ will help you to understand Buffer overflow stack overflow etc., 

         So, learning C C++ is must for every Hacker/Pentester.

   And Many People ask is it necessary to learn programming to become a hacker?

     

      The answer is both YES   NO

Yes you can become a Hacker/Pentester without knowing programming but however, you are not going to become a Good Hacker/Pentester without knowing programming......  :)

ADVANTAGES OF LEARNING PROGRAMMING:

   • Differentiate you from Script Kiddies and Tool lovers.

     • Helps you to understanding vulnerabilities.

     • Helps you in writing your own scripts, tools, shell-codes, exploits etc.,

     • Helps you in modifying existing tools, scripts according to your needs.
