    Hi,
    You have not shared your academic details. However, for being a professional ethical hacker you require motivation, dedication, initiative, self-education and formal training in ethical hacking. I would like to suggest a few points:-
    1. Know about the different types of hackers, such as White Hat, Grey Hat and Black Hat hackers
    2. Evaluate your strengths and interests and gain some programming knowledge such as C, or Java.
    3. Learn the UNIX operating system as it is regarded as the original operating system built by hackers.
    As for Hardware & Networking is concerned, you can upgrade yourself in the same by picking higher certification

    I agree with Aru, that you should know about the different types of hackers, such as White Hat, Grey Hat and Black Hat hackers and Learn the UNIX operating system as it is regarded as the original operating system built by hackers. But since UNIX is not in GUI and a pretty secure system. You may first go for youtube videos on hacking or probably but a good book for ethical hacking

    You may also opt for having a certification in ethical hacking

    Hello Rohan
    yea, you can do it
    but hacking and hardware & networking is different field
    be in one side and become a master for the same.
    according to me you should go for networking it will boost your career and you will get good job too
    and for hacking you have to invest high money for getting settle, if you can invest high amount in your career then hacking is good for you.
    otherwise go for networking
    All the best
