Welcome to HackTalk.net!
HackTalk.net was started as a project to help bring the latest and greatest in security news to the general public through a blog located at http://blog.hacktalk.net
Eventually, a lot of the HackTalk.net blog readers wanted a more "community" feel and after countless emails, I buckled and said, "Sure, let's do it!" and thus was born this forum.
Great Quality
Something we realized early on was that there are tons of hacking forums out on the internet; well, we didn't want to be just another hacking forum, and, because of this, have opted to do our best to bring you the best quality we can from not only professionals in the Information Security industry, but security enthusiasts who selflessly give back to the scene and are active in the scene. HackTalk.net strives to not be another forum full of so-called hackers who run around causing chaos wherever they go and thinking that defacing a website is cool; HackTalk.net strives to be a forum where we foster the ideas of responsible disclosure and consensual hacking, as well as provide a place where beginners and experts alike can co-mingle and learn from each other.
N00bz Welcome!!!
Unlike many other forums, we welcome those new to hacking and encourage them to join the forum and interact. We wish to make a safe place where "noobs" can ask questions and not get utterly destroyed in flames and never have their questions answered. Let's face it, even the most amazing of hackers had their humble start as noobs and look where they have come. We hope to foster the spirit of learning, self research, and ethical hacking so that even beginners may one day become the next big thing.
