Description

Ethical hacking is different from hacking only in terms of intent. It is a profession where hacking methods are used to help organizations in preparing for impending cyber attacks. Unlike hacking, ethical hacking is used with good intent to help individuals and organizations and serves a greater purpose of securing important data and networks from malicious hackers.

Ethical hackers strengthen the network and system security by exploiting existing vulnerabilities. They identify the weaknesses and rectify them with appropriate and effective countermeasures.
