The Perfect Guide to Cyber Security (2024)

Hello Everyone, I’m Vinay Bohra, Cyber Crime Investigator and


Trainer. From the last 5 Years am working in Cyber Security
Domain, Helping Law Enforcement in Solving Complex Cyber
Crime Cases. I have been awarded by Mumbai Police and other
Education Institute Which Validate My work and Experience.

Here are the 4 Steps, Personally designed by me for you guys!

Step 1: Building Your Foundation


Computer Networking:
 Understand the OSI model, its layers, and their
functionalities.
 Learn about different network devices like routers,
switches, firewalls, and their purposes.
 Grasp the concept of IP addressing, subnetting, and routing
protocols (TCP/IP).
Fundamentals of Linux Operating System (Kali Linux
recommended):
 Install and configure Kali Linux on your machine (or a virtual
machine).
 Learn basic Linux commands (navigation, file manipulation,
permissions).
 Understand the Linux shell environment and scripting
basics.
 Familiarize yourself with common Linux security tools
included in Kali Linux.

Step 2: Mastering Cybersecurity Concepts


Entry-Level Certification Course Syllabus:
 Research reputable certifications like CEH (Certified Ethical
Hacker) or eJPT (eLearnSecurity Junior Penetration Tester).
 Create a comprehensive study list by extracting topics and
subtopics from the chosen certification syllabus.

Learning Resources:
 Utilize Google, YouTube, and online learning platforms like
Udemy and Rivi Hacks for comprehensive explanations,
real-world examples, and interactive tutorials.
 Supplement your learning with ebooks and training
materials provided by Rivi Hacks or other trusted sources.
 Focus on practical application by analyzing case studies and
implementing learned concepts in simulated environments.
Step 3: Building Practical Knowledge and Expertise
Developing Projects:
 Design and build personal projects to solidify your
understanding of security concepts.
 Examples include setting up a honeypot, creating a basic
web application with security vulnerabilities, or developing
a script for automating security tasks.
Practice Platforms:
 Utilize platforms like HackTheBox and TryHackMe to
engage in hands-on practice through gamified challenges
and ethical hacking simulations.
 These platforms offer various labs and scenarios that mimic
real-world security situations, allowing you to test your
skills and knowledge in a safe environment.
Specialization:
 Explore various sub-domains within cybersecurity that
pique your interest, such as digital forensics, network
security, or web application security testing.
