Ethical hacking
According to Wikipedia, an ethical hacker is a computer specialist who tests security systems and networks in a positive way. His goal is to track down flaws and vulnerabilities in the systems and networks, and then report them to the companies or organisations they work with.
“Ethical hackers want to help in the fight against cybercrime. They are the ‘good guys’ of the internet. We desperately need ethical hackers to ensure that our world becomes more secure.”
