In military theory, warfare divides into three levels. The first is tactics, the second is operations, and the third is strategy. Each of these levels provides several aspects into the art of war, making you much more versatile as a practitioner. When it comes to cyber security, there is no difference. When trying to learn hacking, it is easy to focus on the commands, tools, and techniques to hack your target. However, this can deviate you from the bigger picture of why you are hacking in the first place.
