    I think being a computer security expert is awesome. Having underground hackers as your nemesis would make life pretty interesting πŸ˜‰

    For the uninitiated ( πŸ˜‰ ) let me explain the difference between hacking and cracking!

    Hacking is non-malicious activity which involves constructive tweaking of the system for learning or achieving expected behavior from a system.

    Cracking is a malicious activity. Gaining illegal access to remote PCs, installing malarkey, stealing passwords are all forms of cracking.

    @Priyankagarg: You will have to be very strong with the fundamentals of computers to be good at hacking. There are lots of tips available for Hacking on the internet.

    Ah, I got a different view on crackers. They are just people who use software created by hackers to do malicious deeds. All are bad.

    The real experts are hackers, and there exists hackers who are good and bad.

    Re: Ethical hacking

    An ethical hacker is a computer and network expert who attacks a security system on behalf of its owners, seeking vulnerabilities that a malicious hacker could exploit. To test a security system, ethical hackers use the same methods as their less principled counterparts, but report problems instead of taking advantage of them. Ethical hacking is also known as penetration testing, intrusion testing and red teaming. An ethical hacker is sometimes called a white hat, a term that comes from old Western movies, where the "good guy" wore a white hat and the "bad guy" wore a black hat.


    Example:
    One of the first examples of ethical hackers at work was in the 1970s, when the United States government used groups of experts called red teams to hack its own computer systems. According to Ed Skoudis, Vice President of Security Strategy for Predictive Systems' Global Integrity consulting practice, ethical hacking has continued to grow in an otherwise lackluster IT industry, and is becoming increasingly common outside the government and technology sectors where it began. Many large companies, such as IBM, maintain employee teams of ethical hackers.

    A Certified Ethical Hacker is a skilled professional who understands and knows how to look for the weaknesses and vulnerabilities in target systems and uses the same knowledge and tools as a malicious hacker. CEH is one such certfication I know about.

    Just thought to add something as the thread seems to miss this info, the most important thing is "to get the permission of the owner whose resources you are going to hack, otherwise, it won't be ethical hacking.(at least in legal terms..)
