what is the best programming language to learn hacking

Question

I really want to learn hacking and information security and I would like to know what is the best programming language to learn hacking

Answer 1

Good question red mage actually I'm not in cybersecurity person but during college we used to sit with cybersecurity students so learned a bit about it. Yeah SQL is also used to safeguard the data from the databases as hackers might enter into it if there is any loop hole through the SQL injection and many more tools. Rather then handling SQL they mostly secure it in websites or application so that no one can enter into it.

Answer 2

Python, C or C++ and JavaScript. Python has wide range of libraries for you to use and it is great for scripting and tools.

C or C++ would help you learn about system-vulnerabilities as they are closely tied to the system, and many OS like the Linux-based(Android included), iOS, Windows use C.

JavaScript as it is one of the languages of the web, so you can test ethical-hacking and cybersecurity through websites with it.

Ethical hacking is a powerful and valuable skill when used the right way. However, attempting to hack systems without proper permission is illegal and can have serious consequences.

If you're interested in cybersecurity, start by learning the right programming languages:

Python : Great for automating tasks, scripting, and penetration testing.

C/C++ : Helps you understand low-level operations and how system exploits work.

JavaScript :Useful for identifying and understanding web-based vulnerabilities.
:
SQL :Crucial for database security and learning how SQL injections happen (and how to prevent them).

To learn ethical hacking hands-on, explore platforms like TryHackMe, Hack The Box, and Cybrary.

And Always remember: With great knowledge comes great responsibility use your skills ethically and legally.

In addition to Afnan Irtesum Chowdhury you also need to have command over Linux based operating system as they are command based and you need to know them properly before using them and also learn networking based tools used for hacking purposes. In conclusion the hacking or cybersecurity things will be done in Linux based os so you can use virtual system to switch between Android and windows.

Be ethical
Good Luck

Thanks

Answer 10

Python and you have learn about operating systems , how they work , computer networking and various topics . Mostly hackers use kali Linux .

Answer 11

Normally they would say C, but although C is important, Python would be a good language to start creating your own scripts, and then as you progress, you can learn C, especially to create mini malware or analyze binaries with Hydra, doing reverse engineering.
