For longer than I can remember, I have Romanticized the role of hackers in cinema and only to recently discover that Penn testing it's an actual profession. The ultimate career goal for me would be to earn my CEH and work remote from Alaska.  Rather then risking going to prison or jail, I'm currently working on my own internet environment with two separate networks a couple of routers and several switches and 4 old servers and last but not least a Firewilla gold which will aide in keeping myself safe as well as segregating my closed system from the outside world. I've been combing eBay and Facebook market place for old network junk but will work well enough for my network.
