An Incredible 8-Month Journey with TryHackMe – Transformative Learning Experience!

Friday, August 16th, 2024

Over the last 8 months, I have thoroughly enjoyed using TryHackMe as my go-to platform for learning pentesting, hacking, and cybersecurity. The experience has been nothing short of trans formative, providing me with hands-on, practical skills that go far beyond theoretical knowledge.

TryHackMe offers an engaging and immersive learning environment, with a vast range of labs, challenges, and guided paths that cater to learners at all levels. Whether you’re just starting out or already have some experience, the platform provides a structured yet flexible approach that allows you to learn at your own pace.

One of the aspects I’ve appreciated the most is the way TryHackMe breaks down complex topics into manageable, easy-to-understand segments. The interactive labs have given me the confidence to apply what I’ve learned in real-world scenarios, which is invaluable for anyone serious about a career in cybersecurity.

The community and support on TryHackMe are also fantastic. With active discussions, helpful hints, and a supportive network of learners, I never felt stuck or overwhelmed. The team behind TryHackMe continuously updates and expands the content, ensuring that the learning experience stays fresh, relevant, and challenging.

In just 8 months, TryHackMe has significantly advanced my knowledge and skills in pentesting and cyber security. I can’t recommend it highly enough to anyone looking to dive into this field—it’s an indispensable resource that makes learning not just effective but genuinely enjoyable!

Finally after many many hours, which I started in January 2024, I have now completed all the TryHackMe Learning Paths, of which there are 13 in total to date, and I went back and completed SOC Level 1, which had been added to.

Also earned 60 badges out of a total of 74, although 74 I think is now impossible as some badges are legacy!

Some new badges earned from @RealTryHackMe

Monday, January 8th, 2024

For the past 5 years, I’ve been completing the AoC (Advent of Cyber), which is 24/25 days of cyber “hacking” tasks, every day leading up to Christmas Day. These are the new badges I’ve earned for 2023.

This year was a special year, because not only did THM have the usual AoC, they also had some very insanely difficult Side Challenges, to complete a single challenge earned this badge from TryHackMe
