First of all there are 3 kinds of hackers which most of you know by now and they are...
- Black Hat Hackers: These hackers are the reason for people to be scared of the name of hacker. They do not seek any reason to hack others. They don't think twice or hold back anything to attack his victim. They do it to troll or to gain money from it. They're purposes are only to destroy security.
- Grey Hat Hackers: The intention of hacking and making security stronger to avoid getting hacked are called Grey Hats. They also hack many websites and other things but most of them does not have the intention to destroy the site but to notify the owner of it's vulnerabilities. Maximum hackers are Grey Hats (From my experience so far). They are quite helpful to us by notifying us about our faults and gives us a chance to make our security stronger.
- White Hat Hackers: These hackers are the workers and security researchers of many companies and industries. They're main purpose is to tighten up their security so that Black hats or Grey hats cannot break in the system. They are the reason Black hats have so much trouble to get in their system. White Hats are highly skilled for these tasks and they keep the bad hackers of their lawn.
The Danger you could be in....
Suppose your friend gave you a link and said, "Hey pal, Check this funny dude out." You don't have the slightest clue that your friends account have been hacked by this same process. The procedures behind this link is, when you'll click it you will see a random funny image. But in the background the hacker just hijacked your cookie and now he got the access to your social media accounts and can do the same process again with your another friend with your account. The scary part is this method is very poor compared to Advanced and professional attackers. So think before doing something or clicking something. Who knows if you're being watched or not. Safe surfing....
