Hacking has been in the news а lot recently, and is а growing
рrоЬlеm all очеr the world. But did you know that there are
different types of hackers out there, with different ёfit$?
At first, l thought that these people were all just criminals

trying to make mопеу. lthought that they wеrе the people
who are responsible for those riaýý emails l get iп my iпьох
or for stealing money from реорlеЪ bank accounts.

Butthen l did some research оп the internet. l found out
that there аrе different types of hackers, and each one has

different reasons for hacking. Неrе is what lfound out about
some of the different types of hackers:

Же*k*у

This is the type of hacker that you usually read about in news stories.

These hackers enter computer systems illegally to steal companies'
or реорlеЪ mопеу and information. They also attack computer
systems 5о that they stop working, and send $ijtirri emails.

ffir*у

Жав* ýSmgfu*у

This type of hacker is between

а

White Hat Hacker and а Black Hat

Hacker. Sometimes, these hackers find weaknesses in а computer
system and repair it for the соmрапу for free. Other times they find
the weaknesses and then tell the соmрапу about them and offer to
repair them fоr$$ýS.
Ж*gfuЁ$чr****

ЖfuЁ** ffi** ffiе*fu*g
This type of hacker is а professional hacker who works for

companies and governments. These hackers are allowed
to use their skills to hack computer systems so that the

соmрапу оr government сап rераir апу
in its

оwп system before another hacker tries to епtеr the system
for criminal reasons.

These people аrе different from the other types of hackers. They

don't hack to make mопеу or to find weaknesses iп computer
systems, but instead they have social оr political reasons for hacking.
They usually enter the computer systems of big companies and

governments to steal their information.
So now you know that not all hackers are the same. Did апу ofthis
