Ethical hacking definition

An ethical hacker (also known as a white hat hacker) is the ultimate security professional. Ethical hackers know how to find and exploit vulnerabilities and weaknesses in various systems—just like a malicious hacker (or a black hat hacker). In fact, they both use the same skills; however, an ethical hacker uses those skills in a legitimate, lawful manner to try to find vulnerabilities and fix them before the bad guys can get there and try to break in.

Ethical Hacking Yes! Prevention is better than cure. This is not the James Bond 007 film like “License to Kill”. This is “License to Hack”. But the theme is same. Where in the Bond film the James Bond the hero fight against the villain. Here the Computer Experts as “Ethical Hackers” fight against the Computer-savvy criminal’s malicious attack. We have to protect our Network, confidential information, bank accounts, and even an identity. We are in the time to fight against these malicious hackers who breach the most secure bank accounts, corporate information or even government website to mischief, damage or even sabotage.  Many companies are nowadays employing these experts as “Ethical Hackers” to actually test by attacking their own Computer Networks. They attempts to detect potential weak systems or servers to intrude or crash their own security systems and suggest changes to increase the safety. These steps are made effective in such technical methods and procedures to test the effectiveness and quality of their own network systems and prevent the attack of intrusions before they happen.  Here we are using the term “ Ethical hackers” as a legal profession for Computer Networks Experts to keep the bad things out. These experts use the same tactics and techniques to violate the security protocols as their vigorous counterparts, but in an ethical manner.  These ethical hackers test the systems in the company for a secured network quantitatively and evaluating weakness, flaws and threats.
