El término hacker siempre ha sido mal utilizado y siempre es usado para referirse a alguien que te robará tus cuentas bancarias o “hackeará” tus redes sociales, trataré de explicar la diferencia entre hacker, cracker o lamer.
HACKER.
A hacker is a person with advanced knowledge of computer security, networks, programming, etc.
This person enjoys acquiring new knowledge in addition to dedicating himself to creating safe and functional systems, although this type of computer scientist has the necessary experience to break systems, he would only do it to improve the security of these.
CRACKER
This term was born from crack which means to break, CRACKERS are considered cyber-criminals who have the knowledge to invade systems, decipher encryption algorithms and steal information, generally they do it only because of the challenge that this implies, but some of them can do it for profit or protest.
LICK
The Lamers are the most hated group of computer scientists, they are usually individuals with a desire to do Hacking, but who lack any knowledge.
Son “informáticos” que no cuentan con conocimientos para construir sus propias herramientas por lo cual se dedican a usar las de otros, esto los convierte en un grupo muy peligroso debido a que siempre están tratando de romper sistemas usando software el cual no comprenden completamente.
