Currently I have been studying C, networking, and lower level systems to fill in any gaps I may have regarding computing. My goal is to have as strong an understanding as possible and to pursue reverse engineering of malware and exploits.
I am hoping to take and pass the CCNA exam before the end of the year, i have strong fundamentals and believe this is possible
I recently purchased a book called Code (ISBN 978-0137909100), this book has been fundamental as my goal is to understand computing through every layer from the semiconductor physics that makes transistors work, to logic gates, bits in memory, machine-code instructions moving through CPU caches, operating systems and networks. You keep moving upward through the abstractions and eventually arrive at this strange magic: an HTML webpage.
To understand everything inbetween has been my obsession for a while now and to try and make it a reality is probably a little far fetched but even if I only make it 50% of the way to the understanding I want I would be happy.
