I thought I was getting good at cybersecurity… until this CTF humbled me. (Day-07) Participated in override.exe Captured 7 flags, but struggled a lot more than expected. Big reality check: still a long way to go. Back to learning. #Cybersecurity #CTF #Infosec

Day 6 of my Cybersecurity Journey Attended a DevOps in an AI-First World meetup in Pune today. Big takeaway: AI isn’t replacing engineers, it’s upgrading them. DevOps + AI = faster builds, smarter security, better systems. Learning never stops. 🚀 #Cybersecurity #DevOps #AI

Day 5 🚀 Did labs + started learning networking. Strong foundations > quick wins. Every concept today = fewer mistakes tomorrow. #Cybersecurity #BuildInPublic #Consistency

As a beginner in Cybersecurity once you participate in 100 days of Cybersecurity challenges you will never be the same again.

@Ahmed___khaan Facts! I’ve just started my 100 days of cybersecurity too, staying consistent is my biggest challenge.

Cybersecurity has no “perfect path.” No degree, roadmap, or checklist guarantees success. What matters? → Curiosity → Consistency → Doing what you actually enjoy Start messy. Stay consistent. You’ll figure it out 🔐 Cybersecurity #CyberSecurity #TechCareer #LearningInPublic

I thought hacking needed tools. I was wrong. Day 4 of my cybersecurity journey: Focused on Linux permissions & users today. Biggest insight: Systems don’t get hacked… They get misconfigured. 📚 Resources: linuxcommand.org TryHackMe (Linux Fundamentals)

Day 3 of cybersecurity: Most quit here. I didn’t. Linux deeper (files, perms) Basics of networking (IP, ports) Realization: Don’t learn everything. Learn how things connect. Don’t just run commands → understand them. Resources below.

@alessatrx Hi

Engaging is FREE Connecting is FREE Following is FREE Say “hi ”, and connect with everyone 👇

@Burhan_aldeen_ That’s a solid approach wide scope + business logic is where the real money is. I’ve noticed programs with large attack surfaces often hide simple logic flaws that automation misses. Are you prioritizing recon depth or testing breadth right now?

@cHef_vic__ @ireteeh @OnijeC @segoslavia @Ejikeetolue @_DeejustDee Congrats! Securing CI/CD pipelines is becoming a big deal now..great area to double down on. What was the most valuable thing you learned from the AppSec module?

Day 100 🔥🔥 Completed the module on Application Deployment & Security, next up Infra & Automation. I learnt about appsec, common vulnerabilities in apps and databases, CI/CD & application deployment @ireteeh @OnijeC @segoslavia @Ejikeetolue @_DeejustDee #100DaysofCybersecurity

@archishah61 Spine-leaf really simplifies east-west traffic compared to traditional architectures. Once it clicks, networking feels very different.

Day 18/100 ~ “Progress is built, not rushed.” 🔐 Diving deeper into network foundations today. Learned *Spine-Leaf architecture*, *Point-to-Point topology*, and explored *Two-Tier & Three-Tier network architectures*. #100daysofcybersecurity #LearningInPublic

@HeisChizara @AishaBelloB @sudosheggs @cyber_razz Nice progress 🔥 Modules are a game changer once you start structuring your code better. Are you building small projects alongside the course? I am beginning the same journey as you. Just curious 🤔

Day 26 of my cybersecurity growth challenge 🔐 Today, I began the python essentials 2 course on Cisco Netacad to further develop my efficiency in python. Learnt all about modules and how to use them effectively #cybersecurity @AishaBelloB @sudosheggs @cyber_razz

@Burhan_aldeen_ Love the consistency That 1 hour focused hunting can compound fast if you stay consistent. What type of targets are you focusing on right now?

@Wura4Cyber @VAInitiatives The avalanche effect still blows my mind 🤯 Did you compare how SHA256 vs MD5 behaves on slightly larger files? I’ve been testing similar stuff lately...super interesting patterns.

Day 94/100 🔐 Built a Python hashing tool (SHA256, MD5, SHA1) Tested file integrity → even 1 tiny change completely changes the hash 😳 (avalanche effect) Cybersecurity is wild #Python #Cybersecurity #100DaysOfCode @VAInitiatives

I documented everything I learned (notes + practice): 🔗 GitHub: github.com/DurgeshLabs/cy… I’m sharing my journey daily as I go from beginner →cybersecurity. Follow along if you’re learning too. #Linux #Cybersecurity #LearnInPublic #100DaysOfCode #Tech

Most beginners fail because they try to learn everything at once. Don’t. Master the basics deeply → everything else becomes easier.

Linux felt confusing… until I realized this 👇 It’s not about memorizing commands. It’s about understanding how the system thinks. Here’s what finally made it click for me 🧵 (+ resources at the end)
