An ethical hacker, also known as a white-hat hacker, is a cybersecurity professional who simulates cyberattacks to identify and fix vulnerabilities in systems, networks, and applications before malicious hackers can exploit them. Their job is to think like a hacker but act with integrity and authorization.
They use advanced tools like Metasploit, Burp Suite, and Wireshark, and must have a deep understanding of network protocols, operating systems (Linux, Windows), cryptography, and programming languages like Python, Java, or SQL. Ethical hackers also need soft skills such as critical thinking, communication, and problem-solving.
Key responsibilities include:
Performing vulnerability assessments and penetration tests
Reporting and documenting security flaws
Ensuring sensitive data remains protected
Signing NDAs and maintaining confidentiality
Assisting in incident response and digital forensics
Staying updated on the latest threats and security trends
Career opportunities in ethical hacking are booming across industries like banking, healthcare, and government. Roles include Security Analyst, Penetration Tester, and Information Security Consultant, with salaries often exceeding $100,000 per year.
