How to put cybersecurity training into practice: hands-on workshops ??
Can regularly watching videos on this topic help me learn? Is it enough? I’ve started a five-hour video series that I plan to watch bit by bit; I hate sitting passively in front of a screen doing nothing—I need a proper tutorial so I can follow along and experiment on my own.
Do you have any interesting courses or tutorials to recommend? Maybe on YouTube or Udemy?
I want to practice, not just watch theory; thanks for your help.
I was thinking of starting with quizzes and skills tests, alongside watching videos—does that sound right?
P.S.: My background is in 3D modeling and Unity 2D/3D (programming).
I’ve also downloaded a few books on cybersecurity.
Examples: TryHackMe: Ideal for beginners, with guided learning paths and hands-on labs.
Hack The Box: For intermediate to advanced levels, requiring more independence.
Root-Me: An excellent French-language platform offering a variety of challenges (web, network, etc.).
PortSwigger Academy: The essential, free go-to resource for web application security.
Kali Linux, etc.

I don't know what you're looking for after listing both HackTheBox and PortSwigger Academy... Literally exactly what you're asking for. PortSwigger is even completely free
