They tend to focus on securing and improving the IT systems, while the black hat is concerned about the burglary. The aim would be to password file, you can find advice and weaknesses and to createError messages that contain too much information, or to find pages with the network or vulnerability data.
The first major media attention on the world of cyberspace piracy hacked in 1983 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, where a group of boys aged 16 to 22, in various systems, including the Los Alamos National Laboratory and Security Pacific Bank the Sloan Kettering Cancer Center. They requested the code 414 in their district. Although their lineage rather mild,Were the reason for the project 6, a new law, introduced the crime this year.
Since then, the world of online piracy increases only people serious fun. Another example of a fairly well known hack was September 13, 1998, when a group called HFG (Hacking for Girl132) on the website of the New York Times, responded to a story, they ran their hands.
In these cases, the attacker went up, but about what is for yourather low.

The attachment is a file called: Love Letter For You Within hours, e-mail has reached a global level, which affects 10%All computers and causing $ 5.5 billion in damages.
Not only businesses, but all those who need to invest in security measures. It 'easy to think that art World Wide Web, serving billions of users, networks and businesses, small fish, but all are linked and connected and, if not very principle it can be very useful to have a link or a springboard for something that is.
