What is the meaning of hacker???? Explain

Answer 1

A person who reverse-engineers a code for his/her own good or for the intention to spark havoc to some group people

Answer 2

@pegasus I guess I partially agree with you.
To me, a hacker is someone who, with increasing efficiency, succeeds at gaining access to something that wouldn't otherwise be granted. They can access any server, ALL media and documents, even things that are thought to be unreleased (NEVER PAY FOR ANYTHING DIGITAL). When prompted by someone else or the spark of their own thought, a hacker is able to attain intelligence on any topic, event, project or procedure and move it to another (very obscure) location online to be released to the masses.

@Martin Taylor
As we all know, there are all kinds of people and all kinds of hackers out there with their own life experiences, interests and agendas. You're throwing a lot of assumptions around and linking to specific instances to give your claims credibility (it sounded personal).
To answer you questions: 1. I believe the "wanna cry" creator(s) is/are small time, selfish adolescent minded individual(s) trying to strike at the medical institution. No idea on a possible motive and not interested, yet I know better than to generalize the entire hacker population based on a single incident. Whether You were affected by that our speaking from passion, you know better than that. 2. I idolize no man and I don't get hacked because I'm not an idiot. I'm careful with my personal data. I take specific precautions when dealing with the new 4 horsemen: Google, Amazon, Facebook and Microsoft.
As far as your assumptions: I don't think of hackers as saviors or as villains, but capable "creators" making their own choices. Perhaps you should recognize your own bias and become aware of the way you are being socialized by the media portrayal of hackers. They don't talk about the hacker "pay it forward" movement where hackers are helping people who cannot otherwise help themselves (due to circumstance, lack of education, disproportionate targeting by law enforcement) get out of messy situations, usually legal ones, in which the aided are connected with local pro bono attornies to fight their cases. They also don't talk about the countless hours that hackers contribute to open source projects for the benefit of all.
Of course, doing horrible things like tampering with hospitals and attacking the innocent is cowardly. I don't play that. I have no problem getting people like that swatted, all day.

Answer 5

Hacker is someone who know how to make something easier for them or for anyone else and hackers are basically people who have knowledge of software, scripts etc with which they can do things which we can't imagine like in kali we can use msfvenom to make payloads to hack android, ios, laptop etc.you can't describe what is a hacker as there are many more things which makes a difference and you can also google it

Answer 6

Someone who exploits code vulnerabilities. Many use some kind of injection method, like dll or sql etc. There is gray and black hat and the former refers to a person who is hacking for the purpose of showing the weak points to an organization. They may have explicit permission to hack. Corporations lose money when they get intruded upon so gray hat programmers could help. Black hat are the ones that normally end up in prison if caught. They try to gain as much access to a system with the gold standard being root access. Normally these kinds of hackers hack to steal information.
