Hi, I am looking for a couple of good hacking sites. I am looking to, as suggested by the Techrepublic Mailing List, to get a head start on hacker by learning about vulnerabilities as soon as possible and see what tools they are using against us. Does anybody have any suggestions ?

Is to sign up for the security-focus lists.
(www.security-focus.org)

The main ones you want to subscribe to are
Bugtraq, Incidients, Focus-Virus and Focus-MS.

There are also some other's like focus-linux, security-basics, firewalls, etc, that are helpful.

Also you want to sign up for cert.org 's newsletter. The big 3 anti-virus vendors (trend, symantec and nai/mcaffee) newsletters.

Then there is of course microsofts security bulletin notification. http://www.microsoft.com/Security/ it's on the right hand side.

What is my point directing you to newsgroups instead of sites. You will never be able to wade thru all of the HAX04 sites out there.

Your best bet to stay current on new sploits is to monitor the various lists out there.
