https://code.sololearn.com/WykoN7bcDsgX/?ref=app Check Specialization FAQs. There is a Hacking section there. All I got there was from using the search bar, which is also helpful.

I suggest python is best for ethical hacking but your question is c/c++ in that case c++ because it is having predefined class which are datatypes that can be instantiated multiple times in the program.✹

I would think C was better overall, for its low level function and relative simplicity (if needed). Most of the networking in hacking is done by “scripting” languages such as python. But I am welcome to be proven wrong.

Thomas Both language are important But C is Very important compare to C++ because all source code of Kali Linux are based on C language. If you want moderate the open source code of Kali Linux you must have a deep knowledge of C language. So..... C.... bears a great significance in terms of Hacking. There are lot of Hacking tools that are based on... C.....Keep learning.... Hacking is not a piece of Cake.....You need a lot of knowledge in programming and Networking. For Me....#Hacking is Not a Crime.#.......Moreover #Hacking is An Art of Logic#.....Keep learning and Keep going...... 👍👍👍👍

C++ has a steeper learning curve.

C++ is superset of C. C++ includes oop and networking it's better compared to C

Ethical hacking is not a skill set to be learnt, but a practice to do better everyday.
