ABSTRACT

Hacking is one of the most dangerous illnesses that plague the world today.  This report focuses on the impact of malicious attacks and hacks on the community.  It provides a comprehensive overview and precautions for dealing with hacking issues. This section describes various aspects of hacking. Today's generation is still lagging behind in solving the problem of hacking attacks and taking precautions to address this ever-increasing global problem. To address the issue of hacking attacks, sophisticated security tools have been developed. As a result, we should begin to consider hacker psychology as the primary means of preventing and stopping attacks by understanding their needs or desires.  The internet solved many problems and introduced many new things to the world, such as electronic commerce, easy access to vast stores of reference material, collaborative computing, email, and new avenues for advertising and information distribution, but it also introduced the most dangerous problem known as hacking. Governments, businesses, and private citizens worldwide are eager to participate in this revolution, but they are concerned that a hacker will break into their Web server and read their email, steal their credit card number from an online shopping site, or implant software that will secretly transmit their organization's secrets to the open Internet. This study describes the skill, attitude, and how this will help customers find and plug security holes, as well as the ethical hacking problem, as well as global problems and solutions to those problems.
