Security-Freak.net is an attempt to lower the entry barrier for starting computer security research. During my interactions with security enthusiasts in general and students in particular, i have noticed that many lose interest because of the lack of organized learning resources in this area. This is not to undermine the sheer volume of tutorials written on various security related topics such as raw sockets, packet injection etc. But for most beginners it is very difficult to assimilate these voluminous documents at one go. This realization made me start Security-Freak.net .

If you've spent long hours trying to figure out how to write your first sniffer, packet injector or port scanner and unfortunately met with no or mixed success - then trust me, i've been through a similar experience. In this site my aim is to use videos to interactively talk about tough topics such as raw sockets, packet injection etc to help the viewer grasp the concepts faster. But this site is no panacea - it merely provides a better launch pad to dive deeper and is definitely not exhaustive in its coverage. It is left to the reader to pick it from here and experiment and learn further. With this disclaimer in place and without further ado, i would request you to visit the Videos Page and get started. If you like this site and would like to help in building the content, please visit the Contribute page.

The site is currently in its BETA version and i would be happy to know your feedback to make subsequent articles better. Have fun !
