     This is going to be a shorter post because there is not too much to discuss here. I really appreciate the Geeks for Geeks cite. In a time when looking for information on the internet can be cumbersome with advertisements and clickbait articles, G4G posts in-depth articles on most all technological systems. From everything like: CPU, IPS, OSI model, FTP, etc. When I search for information about a system I am currently studying I often add G4G into the search bar. Their articles are able to be referenced and used in paper because they are accurate and well trusted.  For example their introduction to SQL is full of reference links and easy to read wording. They follow up an introduction and technical jargon with a real life example and then a screenshot of what this looks like. That's all I have to say. Make sure you try them out for your next study project! https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/

      Hack the Box is a wonderful cite for anyone trying to gain both knowledge and hands-on experience in Cyber Security and red/blue team activities. The only downside is the amount of time you have to spend to "get good". HtB is an internationally recognized cite and proving yourself in its various "boxes" will also look very good on a resume.      There are two main ways I would suggest using HtB. One, start in their academy and complete modules and skills on different tools like "nmap", "nc", "sql injections", etc. Once you feel pretty comfertable on your abilities to manage a red team job try out hacking the box. There are hundreds of different puzzles called "boxes" where you will need to use your new skills to exploit the machine. It is incredibly educational and I cannot recommend enough. Charlie
