White Hat Hacking
White Hat Hacking refers to ethical hacking performed by cybersecurity professionals to identify and fix vulnerabilities in computer systems and networks. These individuals, often called ethical hackers, use their skills to help organizations strengthen their security measures and protect sensitive data from malicious attacks.
Unlike Black Hat Hackers, who exploit vulnerabilities for personal gain, White Hat Hackers operate with permission and within legal boundaries. They conduct penetration testing, security assessments, and vulnerability scans to ensure that systems are secure. Their work is crucial in maintaining the integrity and safety of digital environments.
