New to hacking? Trying to figure out how to get started?

Whether you're a beginner or looking to refine your skills, this guide will walk you through everything you need to know to create a simple virtual lab.

This video shows you how to download and run VirtualBox, a virtualization software for creating and running virtual machines.

After VirtualBox is running, we will download and create our own Kali Linux virtual machine to run in our virtual lab.

This video will also show you how to connect to the TryHackMe and Hack The Box networks using OpenVPN on our Kali Linux virtual machine.

In this video, we will create our own Metasploitable2 virtual machine that will run in the same lab environment as our Kali VM. We will then perform our very first ethical hack against Metasploitable.
