Script Kiddies

Explanation: Script Kiddies: These hackers have limited or no training and know how to use only basictechniques or tools. Even then they may not understand any or all of what they are doing.

white hat

Explanation:
A white hat (or a white hat hacker) is an ethical computer hacker, or a computer security
expert, who focuses on penetration testing and in other testing methodologies that ensures
the safety of an organization’s information systems. Ethical hacking may be a term meant
to imply a broader category than simply penetration testing. Contrasted with black hat, a
malicious hacker, the name comes from Western films, where heroic and antagonistic
cowboys might traditionally wear a white and a black hat respectively. While a white hat
hacker hacks under good intentions with permission, and a black hat hacker, most
frequently unauthorized, has malicious intent, there’s a 3rd kind referred to as a gray hat
hacker who hacks with good intentions but sometimes without permission.White hat
hackers can also add teams called “sneakers and/or hacker clubs”,red teams, or tiger
teams.While penetration testing concentrates on attacking software and computer systems
from the beginning – scanning ports, examining known defects in protocols and
applications running on the system and patch installations, as an example – ethical hacking
may include other things. A full-blown ethical hack might include emailing staff to invite
password details, searching through executive’s dustbins and typically breaking and
entering, without the knowledge and consent of the targets. Only the owners, CEOs and
Board Members (stake holders) who asked for such a censoring of this magnitude are
aware. to undertake to duplicate a number of the destructive techniques a true attack might
employ, ethical hackers may arrange for cloned test systems, or organize a hack late in the
dark while systems are less critical. In most up-to-date cases these hacks perpetuate for
the long-term con (days, if not weeks, of long-term human infiltration into an organization).
Some examples include leaving USB/flash key drives with hidden auto-start software
during a public area as if someone lost the tiny drive and an unsuspecting employee found
it and took it.Some other methods of completing these include:• DoS attacks• Social engineering tactics• Reverse engineering• Network security• Disk and memory forensics•
Vulnerability research• Security scanners such as:– W3af– Nessus– Burp
suite• Frameworks such as:– Metasploit• Training PlatformsThese methods identify and
exploit known security vulnerabilities and plan to evade security to realize entry into
secured areas. they’re ready to do that by hiding software and system ‘back-doors’ which
will be used as a link to information or access that a non-ethical hacker, also referred to as
‘black-hat’ or ‘grey-hat’, might want to succeed in
