Knowing how to break into someone else's network will make you a lot better at making your own network secure.

Having experience breaking into networks is not the same thing as learning about the techniques used and the classes of vulnerabilities exploited by attackers.

  • As a guy who presumably has a lot less experience in security than you, I feel rude even bringing it up: surely you're aware of red teaming? This isn't a novel technique invented for AI- IBM has a page about it, it's what all the best DEF CON talks are about, it's the opening scene of Sneakers, it's the point of CtF games.
