Best Reddit Subreddits for Cybersecurity and Hacking!

Reddit is a very useful website for discussions about everything.

For cybersecurity and hacking too, it has useful subreddits, in which, you will learn a lot of things you previously had no knowledge of.

So, I have compiled a list of security related subreddits.

1. Active and Most helpful subreddits:




These three are pretty much it. They have very active communities and are very helpful. I, personally use  /r/netsecstudents a lot because I'm still in the process of learning and that subreddit(if you look properly) will tell you how to make a career in every security field.

2. Security Certification Subreddits:

r/CompTIA (for Security+)

r/ccna (for CCNA and CCNA Security, also r/ccnp for CCNP)

r/CEH (for CEH)

r/cissp (Certified Information Systems Security Professional)

r/oscp (Offensive Security Certified Professional)

Really helpful if you're doing any of these Certs.

3. Other active subreddits:

/r/hacking

/r/blackhat

/r/howtohack

/r/security

/r/Information_Security
 
/r/cybersecurity

/r/pwned

/r/Defcon

These subreddits are just, meh. Yes, you can find a lot of information and learn a lot of things if you look properly. But, they have a lot of unwanted stuff that is useless and boring to you. These are really popular with normal users. It is still useful sometimes, so subscribing to these is your opinion.


4. Topic specific and less active subreddits:


Please check what interests you in this.
