White Hat häçker: A white hat häçker (also known as ethical häçker) is someone
who uses his skills only for defensive purposes such as penetration testing. These
type of häçkers are often hired by many organizations in order to ensure the security
of their information systems.
Black Hat häçker: A black hat häçker (also known as *****er) is someone who
always uses his skills for offensive purposes. The intention of black hat häçkers is to
gain money or take personal revenge by causing damage to information systems.
Grey Hat häçker: A grey hat häçker is someone who falls in between the white hat
and black hat category. This type of häçker may use his skills both for defensive and
offensive purposes.
Script Kiddie: A script kiddie is a wannabe häçker. These are the ones who lack the
knowledge of how a computer system really works but use ready-made programs,
tools and scripts to break into computers
