The steps involved in Hacking a system are Reconnaissance/Footprinting, Scanning/Enumeration, Vulnerability Analysis and last System Hacking.

In the first step you collected open-source information.

In the second step, you collected information about open ports and services, OSes, and any configuration lapses. you collected information about names, network resources, policy and password details, users and user groups, audit and service settings.

In the fourth step, you collected information about network vulnerabilities, application and service configuration errors, applications installed on the target system, accounts with weak passwords, and files and folders with weak permissions.

Now, the final step is to perform system hacking on the target system using all information collected in the earlier phases. System hacking is one of the most important steps that is performed after acquiring information through the above techniques. This information can be used to hack the target system using various hacking techniques and strategies.

System hacking helps to identify vulnerabilities and security flaws in the target system and predict the effectiveness of additional security measures in strengthening and protecting information resources and systems from attack.

There are many certification courses available in the market as an career started in cybersecurity

My suggestion will be:

1. Certified Ethical Hacking (CEH) of EC Council

2. Security + of Comptia
