Hacking from anywhere
1-) Learn Hacking on a debian based distro like Kali Linux - I personally started with tools like nikto, camhacker... and then moved to more complex frameworks like metasploit.

CMV: The Second Amendment "right to bear arms" and the discussions surrounding gun control also apply to hacking tools.
I once had to give a presentation about Metasploit, and whether it was ethically correct for the creator to make it free and open-source, available to everyone. And in researching this I realized that there were a lot of parallels between the arguments for or against hacking tools being readily available and the arguments for or against gun control. I'll just list a few quickly:

Hackers Tools: Must-Have Tools for Every Ethical Hacker
Metasploit Framework (mentioned earlier)
-
Penetration Testing
This phase is where the pen testers practically prove that there exist potential vulnerabilities in the target system. The pen testers do the hacking using an array of technical approaches and social engineering methods to exploit the vulnerabilities. The ethical hackers commonly use Metasploit framework to automatically execute exploitation against the target systems. Moreover, they may install malwares such as rootkit to persistently maintain their foothold and further compromise the target system.

Ruby cryptographic gems
The other gem I want to explore is rbnacl. This gem provides general purpose cryptography for many different scenarios and algorithms. They do so in a simplified way so that mortals like us don't have to become cryptography experts. Check out these docs to see what I'm talking about!
