Ethical hacking

With the growth of the internet, computer security has become a major concern for business and governments. They want to be able to take advantages of the internet for electronics commerce, advertising, information distribution and access, and other pursuits, but they are worried about the possibilities of being “hacked”. At the same time, the potential customers of these services are worried about making control of personal information that varies from credit card numbers to social security numbers and home addresses.

In their search for a way to approach the problem, organization came to realize that one of the best ways to evaluate the intruder threat to their interests would be have to have independent computer security professionals attempt to break into their computer system. This scheme is similar to having independent to break into an organization to verify its bookkeeping records. In the case of computer security, these “tiger teams” or “ethical hacker” would employ the same tools and techniques as the intruders, but they would neither damage the target systems nor steal information. Instead, they would neither damage the target systems nor steal information. Instead, they would evaluate the target systems’ security and report back to the owner with the vulnerabilities they found and instruction for how to remedy them.

 Ethical hacking is also called a white hat hacking. It is a purposefully seeking out vulnerabilities that a criminal or malicious hacker could exploit. A person who enjoys exploring the details of programmable systems and how to stretches their capabilities and one who is capable of creative overcoming or circumventing  limitation is known as Ethical Hacker.

Ethical hacker learns their skills many different ways, such as self-taught trough books, attended either in person or via the Internet (distant learning), or plain, old-fashioned trial-and-error. Many of these Ethical Hacker are reformed, to former Crackers. They learned their skills and gained their abilities the same way as the current Crackers.
