    What is Hacking?
    Hacking is one of the most controversial and creepy terms that has taken
    over our technological generation. A lot of years back when there are
    telephone lines and are used extensively for communication few people
    tried to exploit these networks of telephone lines with a system called
    phreaking so that they can make calls for free. This is one of the first
    methods of system exploiting that is known in a wide range to programmers
    who are developing software systems.
    Hackers by a definition mean that people who are trying to exploit the
    system either a network or software or hardware by using different
    techniques either by a program or devices. Hacking has been divided into a
    lot of hierarchies and types which we will discuss in detail in the next
    chapters. But for now, assume that hacking means to exploit systems by
    code. 


    Who are Hackers?
    Hackers are the individuals who try to exploit systems or understand the
    loopholes in the system to fix them. People always treat hackers as bad
    guys but try to understand that all the security administrators who try to
    protect the billion-dollar servers and databases are also technically called
    Hackers. In the next, we will discuss the most important characteristics of
    hackers in detail .
    Important Hacking Skills to Have
    This section will in detail explain the most important areas where a hacker
    should be perfect. We will organize these characteristics in such a way that
    it would be easy for the reader to go through this book. Let us start! 
    1) Fundamentals of the operating system they are using.
    A good hacker will always have a sound knowledge about the operating
    system that he is using. It deals with a lot of technical knowledge like
    memory and process management along with a lot of commands that will
    make the work easier. A lot of professional hackers will have a detailed
    knowledge of the Kernel they are working on. So, try to consume the
    operating system knowledge as deep as you can.
    2) Scripting
    A good hacker will always write his programs to automate the tasks that
    otherwise may take a lot of time to do. Get accustomed to a scripting
    language like python and start writing your programs. If you can't write
    your code there is less chance of being called a good hacker. So always try
    to experiment with things using scripting.
    3) Knowledge about the Internet and we b
    The most basic task of hackers is to exploit networks and web applications.
    Thus, a thorough knowledge of these technologies is a must. Always get
    yourself updated with the latest server and web technologies that are being


    developed upon. Learn about port scanning and vulnerability testing in
    detail for making fast progress as a hacker.
    4) Hacking tools
    It is practically not possible to write your tool for every task that you need
    to perform. So, you need to understand the usage of a lot of hacking tools
    that are available to perform a lot of basic, moderate and advanced tasks.
    Always try to experiment with new tools and you can have fun exploiting
    systems.
    5) Ethics
    A hacker can perform both good and bad actions. However, remember that
    there is a lot of satisfaction in stopping the bad boys from making money
    using loopholes. Always understand what you are into before doing a
    certain attack or exploitation. It's you that should decide to play on which
    side. 
    These are the basic characteristics that need to be learned or one should be
    aware of thoroughly to become a hacker. In the next section, we will in
    detail explain why Linux is the best operating system for hackers. Let's
    jump right into it .
