HOW TO LEARN HACKING? WHAT IS HACKING?

welcome you all..
This is my First post on my blog ,well to get into the busineess of hacking
and its preventation we will basically start knowing few thing about them..
i feel its very important to clarify the term 'hacker'. Perhaps your
definition of a hacker has been influenced and tainted over the
years. There have been various computer related activities
attributed to the term “hacker”, but were greatly misunderstood.
Unfortunately for the people who are truly defined within the
underground tech world as a “hacker” this is an insult to them.
There are various types of “hackers”, each with their own
agenda(goal).
"My only goal through this blog is to help protect you from
the worst of them."
as my mentor says " ALWAYS BE PREPARED FOR THE WORST
CASE"
Let us define what are the type of hackers
1)Anarchist Hackers
These are the individuals who you should be weary of. Their sole
intent on system infiltration is to cause damage or use
information to create havoc(chaos). They are primarily the individuals
who are responsible for the majority of system attacks against
home users. They are more likely to be interested in what lies on
another person’s machine for example yours usually people who knows you.
Mostly you’ll find that these individuals have slightly above
computer skill level and consider themselves hackers :) (LOL ). "They
glorify themselves on the accomplishments of others".

Their idea of classing themselves as a hacker is that of acquire programs
and utilities or resources readily available on the net, use these programs with
no real knowledge of how these applications work and if they
manage to “break” into someone’s system class themselves as a
hacker.They learn this through given procedures .
These individuals are called “Kiddie Hackers.”
They use these programs given to them in a malicious fashion on
anyone they can infect. They have no real purpose to what they
are doing except the fact of saying
“Yeah! I broke into computer!”

It gives them bragging rights to their friends. :) :)
If there is any damage to occur in a system being broken into
these individuals will accomplish it.
These individuals are usually high school students. They brag
about their accomplishments to their friends and try to build an
image of being hackers but not exactly.
But this is stepping stone to be a real hacker

Hackers
A hacker by definition believes in access to free information.
They are usually very intelligent people who could care very little
about what you have on your system. Their thrill comes from
system infiltration for information reasons. Hackers unlike
“crackers and anarchist” know being able to break system
security doesn’t make you a hacker any more than adding 2+2
makes you a mathematician. Unfortunately, many journalists
and writers have been fooled into using the word ‘hacker.” They
have attributed any computer related illegal activities to the term
“hacker.”
Real hackers target mainly government institution. They believe
important information can be found within government
institutions. To them the risk is worth it. The higher the security
the better the challenge. The better the challenge the better they
need to be. Who’s the best keyboard cowboy? So to speak!
These individuals come in a variety of age classes. They range
from High School students to University Grads. They are quite
adept at programming and are smart enough to stay out of the
spotlight.
They don’t particularly care about bragging about their
accomplishments as it exposes them to suspicion. They prefer to
work from behind the scenes and preserve their anonymity.
Not all hackers are loners, often you’ll find they have a very tight
circle of associates, but still there is a level of anonymity between
them. An associate of mine once said to me “if they say they are
a hacker, then they’re not!”

Crackers
For definition purposes I have included this term. This is
primarily the term given to individuals who are skilled at the art
of bypassing software copyright protection. They are usually
highly skilled in programming languages.
They are often confused with Hackers. As you can see they are
similar in their agenda. They both fight security of some kind,
but they are completely different “animals.”

Being able to attribute your attacks to the right type of attacker is
very important. By identifying your attacker to be either an
Anarchist Hacker or a Hacker you get a better idea of what you’re
up against.
