    I appreciate the updated video. Overall, I been in cybersecurity for 10+ years as a blue teamer. Looking to get into ethical hacking alot more. Have to brush up on my foundational skills, and your video lays out an exact plan to follow. Thank you again!
  • My Brother I want to thank you becouse it was you who motivated me to become an Ethical Hacker, I love the process so much that I AM really in to dominating Python in order to appriciate more the process. I realize that the person who Creates the apps or the tools for hacking, it will always be more advance, than the guys who just use them. All in all, thank You My brother!! You are One of My Heros!! One love player!!

    I really glad I found you. You’ve been my motivation for over 2 years when I was dreaming to become an Ethical Hacker. I followed your advices and from being nobody in the IT world, now I’m working as a Network Engineer in a huge company. Thank you for giving so much to the community.

  • @rochdalemotox
    F-in Brilliant video and commentary Cyber Mentor. Ive been hesitating for a couple of years now made 10s - maybe 100 persistent linux USBs and watching this has made up my mind... On payday next week I'm trading my laptop in for another much more powerful one and going to spend nights and weekends slowly watching this again step-by-step to learn from all these resources you've provided.i was completely unaware of. Thank you very much from Manchester England. Apologies for the vain profile pic from 5 years ago i hope doesn't judge me. Keep up the excellent uploads. Grant AKA Kush.
  • @kumimochi
    I made it to the end of the video and saved links and books you shared. I will watch all of them first then will join TCM!
  • @jb23303
    I just took my EJPT and passed and was feeling kind of lost. I appreciate the work you put into this. I realize my core skills need some love some I’m going towards network+ while learning Python. Thank you!
  • I have a question. I understand the categorization of OSCP vs. more practical, less-expensive certs. But for employment, how would someone who wants to make sure as much as possible he gets employed go about it? Would OSCP be better or more practical ones? I know the field is all about what you can actually do, that's real skill, but the HR trap is there nonetheless, so I'm lost...
  • Nice video, it's hard to see this amount of knowledge and instruction about how to study.
