The best hacking tutorial site--learn legal hacking.

Whether it's to understand potential attack vectors or simply for the fun of it, learning the basics of hacking is something that a lot of people aspire to. Here's our list of the top tutorial based hacking sites.

HellBound Hackers

Rating HellBound Hackers is the quintessential site for hacking tutorials. Covering an expansive range of topics including ethics, social engineering and phreaking, the site's articles hold an impressive wealth of material. With a community of almost 50,000 members it's also one of the largest hacking sites out there, making it ideal for newbies and experienced pros alike.

• Hack This Site

  Rating The central draw of Hack this Site is their range of 'missions', realistic challenges which allow you to practice your cracking skills in a safe, legal environment. These challenges act as interactive hacking tutorials, with the associated articles and guidance allowing you to go from learning basic principles to handling complex steganography and programming related tasks. Their comprehensive list of hacking software is also a useful asset, showcasing tools that might otherwise be lost in the masses.

• Ethical Hacker Network

  Rating For those who are looking to turn their hacking into a potential professional job, the Ethical Hacker Network is a useful resource. Articles and interviews with key figures in cyber security make for interesting reading, but the most important part of the site is information on certifications. Most cracking sites on this list make barely any mention of incident response and forensics, both of which are vital aspects of an ethical hacker's work.

• Hacker Games

  Rating In a similar vein to Hack This Site, Hacker Games offers a range of challenges and war games that should pique any budding hacker's interest. While there's not much in the way of actual tutorials, the site provides a great, safe avenue for investigating complex security setups.

• 2600

  Rating Any review of the best hacking sites wouldn't be complete without the inclusion of 2600. First published in 1984, the long running magazine has been the inspiration for several generations of ethical hackers, publishing technical information including the intimate details of circuit switched POTS. 2600 Enterprises has a variety of ventures in addition to the magazine, and its web presence is a little lightweight. But for the sheer history and back-catalogue of hacking tricks, it's a valuable read.

• SlaveHack

  Rating SlaveHack showing up on this list might surprise some people, as it doesn't claim to be a realistic cracking simulation in any way. However what it does provide is some of the thrill and ambiance that can be missing from other hacking sites. By pitting you against thousands of competitors all looking to get one over on you, this free hacking simulator drives the importance of caution deep into your psyche. Most importantly, though, the game can also replicate some of the tedium inherent in hacking of any kind; with one of the main features being repetitively checking a long list of IP addresses.

Scientists create ultra-thin, cheap, flexible, transparent graphene semiconductors. !!

Ordinarily, electronics are made with silicon semiconductors that are rigid, opaque, and about half a millimeter thick. Thanks to research being carried out at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology, however, that may be about to change. Led by Dr. Helge Weman and Prof. Bjørn-Ove Fimland, a team there has developed a method of making semiconductors out of graphene. At a thickness of just one micrometer, they are flexible and transparent. Also, because they require so little raw material, they should be considerably cheaper to manufacture than their silicon counterparts.
Graphene, for anyone who still doesn’t know, is a material made up of a one-atom thick sheet of hexagonally-linked carbon atoms. It is very electrically-conductive, inexpensive to produce, and is simultaneously the thinnest material in existence yet also one of the strongest.
To create the semiconductors, the Norwegian team starts by “bombing” a graphene substrate with gallium atoms, within a vacuum chamber. Those atoms stick to the graphene, and clump together with one another to form gallium droplets. On the underside of each droplet, where it meets the graphene, the gallium atoms naturally arrange themselves to match the hexagonal pattern of the graphene.
Next, arsenic molecules are also introduced to the graphene sheet, as the gallium atoms continue to rain down. Both arsenic molecules and gallium atoms are absorbed into the existing gallium droplets. Once inside a droplet, the arsenic travels to the bottom, where it combines with the gallium atoms. They form into a crystalline structure, on the bottom of the droplet.
As the process repeats itself, with countless other arsenic molecules entering the droplet and reacting with the gallium atoms on the bottom, the crystals accumulate to grow into a nanowire, with the droplet perched at the top. After just a few minutes, the hybrid finished product is ready – a graphene substrate covered with an array of one-micrometer-tall gallium/arsenic nanowires, evenly distributed in a hexagonal layout.
“A material comprising a pliable base that is also transparent opens up a world of opportunities, one we have barely touched the surface of,” said Dr. Weman. “This may bring about a revolution in the production of solar cells and LED components. Windows in traditional houses could double as solar panels or a TV screen. Mobile phone screens could be wrapped around the wrist like a watch. In short, the potential is tremendous.”
A spin-off company, CrayoNano, has been established to further develop the technology.
