This Anglo-Saxon word comes from hack, which if we translate it into Spanish is ax or demolish, this action of giving dry blows to the trees to knock them down, is the same that the machine operators used at MIT, for its acronym in English, Massachusetts Institute of Technology. This is where the concept of hacker comes from, today we could define them as those people who are experts in computing and technology, it could also be defined as those people who are fond of technology and feel good solving technological problems and go beyond normal.
This term is also widely known as a person who in an unauthorized manner penetrates computer and processor networks. This word has been in use for so long that they went from being covert groups to specific societies, creating in this a classification of groups with different purposes. Thus having the black hat hackers, white hat hackers and gray hat hackers.
Black Hat Hackers: Black hat hackers are those who infiltrate the security of the computer to obtain a particular benefit or simply to do something evil.
White Hat Hackers: White hat hackers are those who infiltrate the computer's security to get weak points from the computer's owner.
Gray Hat Hackers: This is simply the combination of the black hat hacker and the gray hat hacker, in other more precise terms, which has ambiguous morals.
