What is a hacker?

There are also ethical hackers (commonly known as white hat hackers) and unethical hackers known as gray hat hackers. The term cracker is often used to distinguish between them, to distinguish computer security hackers from academic hackers, or to distinguish dishonest hackers (black hat hackers) from ethical hackers (white hat hackers). Hackers can create new things in the virtual world, solve problems. They believe in independence and mutual cooperation.

The first requirement to become a hacker is that you first need to decide what kind of hacker you want to be. Above mentioned 3 types of hackers. I am posting a little more for your convenience.

White Hat Hacker – They provide security of computer and cyberworld. They never harm others. They are also called ethical hackers.

Gray Hat Hacker – These are the kind of hackers who are somewhere between white hat and black hat. They can harm anyone and can also benefit them.

Black Hat Hacker – Hacker usually means black hat hackers. They always harm each other in some way. They are always hated in the cyber world. There are also other types of hackers. For example: Script Kidie (Script Kidie) – They can’t do anything by themselves but they do it by using different tools or scripts written by others.

Neophyte or nOOb – These are hacking students. They are just learning hacking. In other words, they can be called tworking beginners or newbies.
