White Hat Hacker

Stacey in a White Hat

21-Apr-17 13:30

White Hat Hacker

Hacking. We’ve seen it a thousand times on popular television series and movies. It’s been ingrained in our minds - the hooded figure hunched over a computer in a dark room or a spectacled geek sitting in a hidden van typing away on a laptop. Stacey is a white hat hacker (also known as an ethical hacker) whose job is to test security systems for big corporations and protect them from criminal hackers. She sheds light on the myths of hacking and how different it is from what we see on the big screens.
