Abstract: Hacking is the technique of finding the weaknesses in the network system that exploits to gain unauthorized access to personal or business data that are in the networks, and the hacker is responsible for the legal consequences of his/her actions. The hacker has basic knowledge, desire, motivation, deep patience, planning workability, and financial supports. Usually an unethical hacker (black hat hacker) is a malicious guy who tries to steal, leak, and destroy confidential and valuable data and other sensitive information of the computer systems without permission of the user. S/he can usually be organized into two types of attacks: mass attacks and targeted attacks. On the other hand, an ethical hacker (white hat hacker) tries to strengthen the security mechanisms of the organization by exploring the weaknesses of it. This study tries to discuss the aspects of unethical hacking, types of hackers, and their behaviors.
