The biggest thing that separates hackers are the personalities, means, and intentions. Some questions you might ask.

  • Why do you think people hack?
  • What is a computer hacker?
  • What do you generally think of hackers?  
White Hat Hackers

People that find out if a company or government has flaws in their system. This can be dangerous and you should not try this yourself.

Grey Hat Hackers

People who steal information. They do this to expose bad/criminal behavior.

Black Hat Hackers

People who violate computer security for their own personal profit or out of malice.
