Types of Hacker

The term hacker has a double meaning within the field of computing. A hacker can be an expert computer programmer who creates complex software and hardware. These hackers are experts in the field of computing and have achieved a certain elite status within their field. The other commonly known meaning of the word is someone who breaks into computer security networks for his own purpose.

Hacker are Classified into two types that are as follows:



First Type:

  1. Coder/Programmer - These guys only code and program, test it, and then release it for the script kiddies.  
  2. Admins - Admins are far more common than Coders and may have experience with several operating systems, understand TCP/IP, and know how to exploit several vulnerabilities. They generally have less depth of knowledge but possibly greater breadth than Coders. This level of hacker would be part of a security team in a large organization. Some level of programming or scripting ability is required. For example, they should be able to port a tool form on flavor of Unix to another 
  3. Script kiddie – Script kiddie is a non-expert who breaks into computer systems by using pre-packaged automated tools written by others, usually with little understanding of the underlying concept—hence the term script (i.e. a prearranged plan or set of activities) kiddie (i.e. kid, child—an individual lacking knowledge and experience, immature)
Note:         From the above classification the most dangerous type of hacker is Script kiddie. Script kiddies can have a much greater capability to cause problems then their skills alone would indicate. Because they are not expert so that don’t know how much a program came be harmful to the system. I.T. Industry suffer most of the damage due to Script kiddie than other two.

This classification also includes individuals who perform penetration tests and vulnerability assessments within a contractual agreement. Often, this type of 'white hat' hacker is called an ethical hacker.   
  2. Black Hat / Malicious Hacker - A black hat hacker, sometimes called "cracker", is someone who breaks computer security without authorization or uses technology (usually a computer, phone system or network) for vandalism, credit card fraud, identity theft, piracy, or other types of illegal activity 
  3. Gray Hat Hacker - A gray hat hacker is a combination of a Black Hat Hacker and a White Hat Hacker. A Grey Hat Hacker will surf the internet and hack into a computer system for the sole purpose of notifying the administrator that their system has been hacked. Then they will offer to repair their system for a small fee
