The goal of such thread is to complete, and do the following:
  • 1. Discontinue the same topics asked daily, and analyze the most common questions into this one post.


  • 2. Help people whenever is needed, and have a thread containing useful information.


  • 3. Let people be aware that alot of us do care to help you



So, first things first - The most common questions!
  • 1. What is a RAT? - Remote Administration Tool, lets you control the victim's pc, keylog, etc.

  • 2. What is a Keylogger? - A trojan that captures the victims keystrokes, and alerts the controller/owner.

  • 3. What is a BlackHat? - Black hat is used to describe a hacker who has malicious intent.

  • 4. What is a WhiteHat? - White hat hackers are usually security experts, who specialize in penetration testing, etc - however being one doesn't mean automatically good at penetration testing, nor being security expert. That can go without saying to any hat.

  • 5. What is a BotNet? - A network of bots, infected by a controller who can make the bots all perform actions at once.

  • 6. What is a Portforwarding? -Port forwarding helps you to open up a port so you can host servers, etc.

  • 7. What is Bruteforcing? - A brute force uses a mathematical algorithm to go through to try and eventually crack a password etc

  • 8. What is a DDoS? -A distributed denial-of-service attack (DDoS attack) is an attempt to make a computer unavailable to its internet.

  • 9. What is DOXing? - Doxing is basically finding out information about a person, and using it to find out more.

  • 10. What is a skid? - Someone who downloads hack tools, uses them, and thinks they're unstoppable.
