What is Hacking? How do hackers hack?

In this video, we are going to discuss what hacking is, how hackers hack and the consequences of hacking. We will also discuss some basic steps you can take to protect yourself from being hacked. So please watch the video and let us know what you think.

What is hacking?
Hacking refers to activities that seek to compromise digital devices, such as computers, smartphones, tablets, and even entire networks.

Who are hackers?
Many think that “hacker” refers to some self-taught whiz kid or rogue programmer skilled at modifying computer hardware or software so it can be used in ways outside the original developers' intent. But this is a narrow view that doesn't begin to encompass the wide range of reasons why someone turns to hack.

How do hackers hack?
Hacking is typically technical in nature (like creating malvertising that deposits malware in a drive-by attack requiring no user interaction). But hackers can also use psychology to trick the user into clicking on a malicious attachment or providing personal data. These tactics are referred to as “social engineering.”

Be careful with apps
Second, only download phone apps from the legitimate marketplaces that police themselves for malware-carrying apps, such as Google Play and Amazon App store.

Update your software
Whether you're on your phone or a computer, make sure your operating system remains updated. And update your other resident software as well.

Browse carefully
Avoid visiting unsafe websites, and never download unverified attachments or click on links in unfamiliar emails. You can also use

Malwarebytes Browser Guard for safer browsing.
Password safety
All the above is basic hygiene, and always a good idea.

Hacking on Android phones
While most associate hacking with Windows computers, the Android operating system also offers an inviting target for hackers.

“Cybercriminals could view your stored data on the phone, including identity and financial information.”

Why Android?
Compared to iPhones, Android phones are much more fractured, whose open-source nature and inconsistencies in standards in terms of software development put the Androids at a greater risk of data corruption and data theft.
