Ethical Hacking.............
The term hacking bandied about a great deal in both the industry and in the media. Some stories carry the image of bored tweens, building skills while bragging about tearing up someone else's hard work. Other storied talk more about offshore groups using server farms to mass phish for informatiom . The kinf of damage that hackers can cause is as varied as functions of a computer or device : Lost finances, trade secrets, and files swapped or erased are only the tip of what could be done to a person or company. Sometimes, just being one of the few people aware that different companies are talking to each other about business can mean oportunities for the unethical.
So the question gets raised : Can the arts of hacking be used to improve lives on a broader scale, or is it a purely destructive activity?? Below , Forbes Technology Council members weigh in on ethice and hacking..
They 're Essential For Security
An ethical hacker is defined as someone who exploits vulnerabilities without impacting the system they are penetrating. They usually have permission to do this in order to discover weaknesses. It is part of the cyber-security scientific method , as an ethical hacker would work to eradicate vulnerabilities on the individual and global level before a vulnerability is maliciously exploited..
Hackers Help Shore Up Defenses
Cyber criminals are getting smarter every day, and companies must keep security protection up to date. Having researchers who can get into the minds of cyber criminals and look for security vulnerabilities and potential entry point is a crucial part of protecting against an outside breach. We have a number of employees who play this role on our own team, enabling is to better protect customers..
Hacker's Shades Vary By Intent
Anyone looking to break into a system uninvited would never qualify. Individuals contracted to look for vulnerabilities or those who find them accidentally -- often referred to as "white hats" - can certainly qualify as ethical hackers. As for the ones in between (the gray hats), like vigilantes, it is diffcult to see these individuals operating in an ethical way.
4. Look At
What They Do Afterwards
A simple way
of categorizing hackers is to break down how they require reward and how they
disclose issues. For example, are they compensated via a bug bounty program or
by selling the information on a "dark web" marketplace? Do they
disclose the issue to the impacted party or to a third party, like a business
competitor?
5. Knowledge
Has No Morality
Of course
there are ethical hackers! Curiosity should not be condemned and knowledge has
no morality. If a security hole exists then it exists, and better to know it
that than not — then you can prepare yourself for trouble or fix the problem.
Think about a parallel case: doctors. If you go to the doctor and they find out
that you’re sick, you wouldn't accuse the doctor of causing the illness.
6. Hackers
Help Build Better Products And Services
The original
definition of a "hacker" was someone who was extraordinarily good at
coding. This term has unfortunately been corrupted by the media. With software
being at the heart of everything, there is a critical role for hackers to help
companies build better, more secure products and services.
7. Company
Hackers Are Gatekeepers
An ethical
hacker is a person that gains hacking skills with the sole purpose of
identifying vulnerabilities within system or network, and then bringing them to
the notice of the organization so that it can fix the issue in a timely manner,
before an unethical hacker could exploit it. Essentially, they're the gatekeepers
for the organization, in order to prevent an unethical hacker from inflicting
any damage.
