The Hacker's Introduction

 Who is a hacker?
In computer security and everyday language, a hacker is someone who breaks into computers and computer networks.
A Hacker is a person who attacks on other's computers to spoil their system(generally).


Why do they hack?
Some people do hack to show their knowledge and skills. some people to take the revenge.
Types of hackers
There are different types of hackers according to different books and conventions. I divide these hackers into five types..


1.Black hat hackers:
A black hat hacker is someone who breaks computer security without authorization or uses technology (usually a computer, phone system or network) for vandalism, credit card fraud, identity theft, piracy, or other types of illegal activity.


2.white hat hackers

A white hat hacker breaks security for non-malicious reasons, for instance testing their own security system. This type of hacker enjoys learning and working with computer systems, and consequently gains a deeper understanding of the subject. Such people normally go on to use their hacking skills in legitimate ways, such as becoming security consultants.


3.Grey hat hackers
These are skilled hackers who act sometimes legally and sometimes not. These type of hackers have the shades of both white hat and black hat.


4.Script kiddy
These type of hackers are normally beginners. They use tools made my others for attacking on the victims.


5.Hacktivist 
These type of hackers use their hacking skills for political reasons.
