ETHICAL HACKING

         Ethical hacking, also known as penetration testing or white-hat hacking, refers to the practice of intentionally testing computer systems, networks, or applications to identify vulnerabilities and weaknesses in order to improve their security.

Ethical hackers, also called penetration testers or security analysts, perform authorized hacking activities with the permission of the system owner. Their goal is to simulate real-world attacks to uncover vulnerabilities and help organizations strengthen their security measures. Ethical hacking helps identify potential security risks, prevent unauthorized access, and protect sensitive information from malicious actors.

Here are some key aspects and techniques involved in ethical hacking:

Vulnerability Assessment

Penetration Testing

Network Security Testing

Web Application Security Testing

Social Engineering

Wireless Network Testing

Reporting and Remediation

            It's important to note that ethical hacking should always be performed within legal and ethical boundaries, with proper authorization from the system owners. Ethical hackers follow a code of conduct and adhere to legal guidelines to ensure their activities are conducted responsibly and in the best interests of improving security.
