Ethical Hacking

Hacking is the process of identifying flaws in a system and exploiting those vulnerabilities to gain unauthorised access to the system to carry out malicious operations such as deleting system files or stealing sensitive data. Hacking is illegal, and if you are caught doing it, you could face serious consequences. Hacking has resulted in people being sentenced to years in prison.

Nonetheless, if done with permission, hacking might be legal. Companies frequently engage computer specialists to hack into their systems to identify vulnerabilities and weak endpoints so that they may be addressed.

This is done as a preventative step against dangerous hackers. Ethical hackers are those who hack into a system with permission and with no malicious intent. The method is known as ethical hacking.
