I was really impressed by the fact that a person with no traditional education in tech is miles ahead of techies with traditional degrees.Subscribed to her channel.She has my respect !

Great 👍 Informative ❤ Thanks David ! Hunt & bring more Next Gen Hackers on the Show..❤❤❤

Loved this interview, I will ask my teenage children and young ones to listen this interview for informed decisions they need to take for career development plans. Thanks for inviting Farah , she is a great inspiration.

Farah is amazing! What an adventurous and wonderful person. Another great guest David!

Thanks for keeping us updated, the video is very informative.

"'Don't overthink what you have done in the past or what you want to do but if you really want to do cyber security then there are ways for you to get in doesn't matter your background " the best line ever in this interview

34:04 That India map is rediculas sir, that's not correct, Kashmir is our integral part and it should be in the map

Incredible! Makes me to continue to work in IT! When I was a teenager, I was look up on notepad commands that from tricks to dangerous code to understand how it work. Plus, I still have the book of how computers work in hard copy and PDF along with how to install and operate earlier versions of Kali Linux Edit: Thank you David and keep it up!

Very Inspiring !!! Thank you David

wow amazing great informative video again thx david

Incredible guest David! Her journey is so inspiring!

I agree. I get experience by being more "hands-on" from my own "guinea pig" lab setup, via H1 Bug Bounty platform, etc in my own company. I also agree with how she works with another company as META, but also has her Security Researcher stuff she does on her own. I do my Security Researcher stuff part of the time, while the regular job as a Field Technician I'm allowed and privileged to work with much emerging technologies from Amazon. I relate to her and both of you resonate with me. Even though I had a degree from college in IT, my experience and knowledge from Security Research came from "hands-on " setup of my own devices (ie phones, laptops, tablets, etc) to practice on via Kali, course and knowledge from IEEE , but now also incorporating A.I. in my efforts. Live the interview, questions and answers💻🤓👍🏾.

Love TCM super beginner friendly and easy to understand and follow

Very inspiring, even her closing words are on another level. Thank you very much for the insights

at 56:00 , i too appreciate how you ask the same questions to different people and get different responses. It's interesting to see different perspectives

Amazing topic thanks so much David

Superb journey ! She is an inspiration for many of us!

Just wow!!!......like really wow What a being🎉

I really love how you interrogate your guests, very awesome..

Wow! Amazing interview

Love from India ❤❤

Finally! I have been waiting for this video when she shared in her story. Thank you so much!

David, thank you for your questions it does inspire me to start learning on the side.

Bravo continue ❤❤❤

Fantastic talk!

Wow.. great job🖤

She is cool (kewl) you have to fight for what's right (keep up the good work)

Ngl these things affect my confidence i'm happy for her as she's young but I'm almost 30 and wanted to switch to this field but seems like it may not be able to as it's too late and i'm also not bright enough.

Your videos are fascinating, and awesome! Even though I’m not a hacker. I am a computer enthusiast, part-time and always interested in way things work. As people rely more and more on the systems, they have to have knowledge about thei vulnerabilities. Your car hacking one was awesome. I’ll never buy a new car again.😂

This was a great talk with great guest

as occupy the web say "the best cyber security channel in you-tube " ,thanks mr david ,i always thanks for your endless to make good next gen

Hi David, I have been your subscriber for quiet long and loved watching it. Gained a lot of knowledge. After watching Farah's interview. I would ask the same question which you asked, a person who doesn't have any knowledge in Cyber Security, what are the steps he/she should take to a good job in cyber security. Doing Graduation (MSc in Cyber Security) at the moment but believe me I'm not going to name the Uni, not a proper track has been taught or any information I have gained to get a job in Cyber Security. Honestly a proper guideline is not available, it is so much scattered now. Please, I will be waiting for your answer if you can speak to Farah again or any point based guidance. Many thanks.

Great person featured on Great channel 🙇🙇

Such an inspiration!

Very interesting video,i like it❤

I am a penetration tester i have been doing 3 year. waching from India Love u David ♥️

i really admire girls into IT, including myself 🎉❤

Hello, dear Mr. Bumble. ❤ Can you please post a picture of your bookshelf? I want to see the books you are reading.

I have the opposite experiences I worked for two company that didn't pay me and it ended biting me in the butt because most company told me they were looking for real experience, meaning paid position. I am working on bug bounty on the side right now and trying to make videos as well!

いつも見てます！

Zap is free and can do most of burpsuite pro if i remember correctly ?

Thanks for another beautiful video as always Mr Bombal

Just FYI the reason people say you shouldn't do unpaid internships isn't primarily for the person working, although it is also for them. But it hurts society by taking away opportunities for less wealthy but more capable people. It's more a problem of the organization "offering" the free internship. The person who takes the free internship of course benefits, if they ensure they are getting skills and connections, but they might be edging someone else out who is actually more deserving of the role and just not wealthy enough to afford to not make money. Sounds insulting to her, not intended, but that is the root problem with anyone offering or accepting free internships.

❤❤

TCM Security!!!!

hey david sir i love all your content i watch every video I'm trying to enter into bug bounty I'm doing software engineering 4th semester can a software engineer can be cyber expert plz guide

What type of wired earbuds would you recommend?

Great advice!

Cool video!

C and assembly to work with computer memory

You have inspired me I was almost giving up in cyber security so thank you are you giving away those books

Amazing journey and very inspiring. Also, her english is so perfect and pleasing to listen. Well done Farah you got my follow :)

11:45 for any Gen Z'er who doesn't want to be a "content creator", you can get a job via other means as well. Just start with IT Servicedesk in a large organisation and get acquainted with the cybersec team there. They will start to notice that you know how to handle cybersec tickets and when to resolve them yourself or when to inform that team.

❤

Please make video with otw more than others🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

👍

cool video

Meta, such a great company...funny how some ppl seem to be happy to be working for company's like that....

she mentioned something about Crypto ; what was the tool or website she said?

does the certification really matter.? like the CEH. and how much should i need to know to start dug bounty?

Since you have machine learning surveiling the net it is impossible to hack

To all my C code developers have a lovely day 👌🏿🤘🏿

Make a full tutorial video to learn ethical hacking or cyber security.. until that any one can give me suggestion to learn kali properly

Big fan of both of you. Never thought you guys would be together. Really enjoyed watching your work. Love from India 🇮🇳 thanks for inviting an Indian.

Please sir I'm having problems mounting a flash drive. It's giving me errors. Please help me

Wait!?, David Bombal is from South Africa😭😭

👍😃

farah❤

i am just pass 10th and i have 3 months free time and i learn cehv12 lab manual pdf which is free and i am in chapter 6 it is good or i learn another book

Why ethical hackers don’t get paid as much as software engineers?

what is hacking here with default wifi info ?

What is Farah's exact job title in Meta?

Nasha computer haking fact❤

Is that an American Siren at 42:00?

Damn I know her

One woman finally (smart and pretty) ...

Next video discount on PJPT package ;)

Confession: i too went from hacking wifi and IRC nuking. I'm giving away my age eh?

Only trees can protect the environment 🌲🌳🌲🌳

Farah is an interesting girl for sure, but somehow she looks much younger than she really is, I guess ^^

Oh god, please...

Is ai completely replace ethical hacker job

わぁ

FARAH!!! 🖤

Hello

Gogle says that 0 day is worth word NICE, very very motivating

The camera had root login over telnet with the same hardcoded password ? WTF

I dont mean to be rude but when did hackers become good looking like this , 😂😂😂, remmber kevn mitnick RIP , this is a new meta for real.

windows is the easiest to hack yet people using them😜😜😜

first

No One Protect The World lol

I want OSINT tools via AI PLZ

🇮🇳 🤍

I think she is indian or Pakistani?

Anyone who want to leave cybersecurity is stupid it seems...Huh

She didn't really give a good answer how to start if you are completely new to it, not that I need it, but if you want to get into cyber security. "Just go do bug bounty , learn Java" , ... "Just get a job in cyber security if you want to get into cyber security ". of all interviews this one i didn't like, she just cutting all answers short

Enjoying the process is the key to curiosity as an added package

TheNewBoston is VERY good.
