Greetings - Mr_Sprawl - 12-05-2016
Name : Mr Sprawl or just Sprawl
Expertise : Basics, Basic coding, basic network, basic security... basic everything IT related
Reason For Joining : I would like to go from Basic to exceptional, there is only so much school and books can teach, I love to get involved into projects, thought experiments and such
Hobbies : Hacking gadgets (Pwnpad, wifi pineapple, badusb, poisontap), Videogames, anime/manga, food, music (Techno, industrial, dark wave, folk metal, and many other things... I'm fairly flexible) and just random computer projects... setting up my own server, home lab setup, I'm down for most things.
Closing : I am always wanting to learn, mainly on the security side. Python, is my language of choice but hit me up, I love talking with people. If you have a project or something that an extra set of eyes can help or you simply think I'd like it, let me know. Hopefully as I add skills I can contribute back to the community here.

In terms of schooling, you're quite correct.
Pertaining to hacking, schools obviously don't engage In such activities- particularly the exploitation side of things. As such, If you wish to succeed, It must be done via your own volition by pushing yourself to the max- no boundaries.
Anyhow, It's nice to have you on board. Have a great stay.

This annoys me, how can a student know how to protect his projects from exploitation if they are never taught about it, this is why we have so many vulnerable sites.

I totally agree.
Generally speaking, to know how to protect, you need to know how to get In. From a security standpoint, It's a lot harder because you need to protect and patch every vulnerability, security risk and flaw and exhaust every avenue from every angle. Whereas an attacker/hacker only needs one vulnerability (that was perhaps missed) to gain access.
