The webpwnized YouTube channel is dedicated to information security, security testing and ethical hacking. There is an emphasis on web application security but many other topics are covers. Some of these include forensics, network security, security testing tools and security testing processes. The channel provides videos to encourage software developers and system administrators to perform security testing. Also, the channel educates the next generation of security testers and bug bounty hunters who want to respectfully, legally and ethically help system owners that allow security testing.

Sometimes looking at a list of files can be quite confusing if the right options are not used with ls command. I like using -F option with the ls command because it will categorize files by leaving a symbol at the end of filename to indicate it's type.
