Hi linuxers-request,
what is more difficult and challenging : being a hacker or a cracker?
Being a hacker. That's because crackers can simply use existing tools, such as rootkits. Hackers actually have to come up with something new and difficult.
I disagree.... hackers and cracker do essentially the same thing although their objectives differ.
Also, in today's climate crackers have another difficult jobs of covering their track to avoid becoming guests of the state......
