• A black hat hacker is a person who attempts to find
computer security vulnerabilities and exploit them for
personal financial gain or other malicious reasons.

security flaws that black hat hackers may exploit.

Both individual computer users and large
organisation by stealing personal financial
Information compromising the security of major
System or shutting down or alerting the functions
Of websites and networks
GREY HAT HACKER :
• As logic would suggest, a grey hat hacker falls somewhere
between a white hat and a black hat hacker. Unlike Certified
Ethical Hacking, grey hat hacking is still illegal. This is because
the hacker has not received permission from the organisation to
attempt to infiltrate their systems, although grey hat hackers
tend not to have intentions as troublesome as their black hat
counterparts.
WHITE HAT HACKER :
• White hat hackers have all of the required knowledge to exploit software, networks, or
systems, but choose to use their powers for good, working alongside organisations
rather than against them. A white hat hacker will look for and try to exploit
vulnerabilities, but only with the permission of their target. They will then inform the
company of the issue and help to resolve it, potentially saving them millions.
• White hat hackers are so critical to robust security, that many larger companies
actively encourage white hat hacking as an organic way of testing the security of their
systems. They support the work of these ethical hackers by offering bounties on bugs,
rewarding them for disclosing any vulnerabilities they find

organization's information, the
exploitable vulnerabilities are
scanned by the hacker in the
network. In this scan, the hacker
