    Preface

     Computer hacking is the practice of altering computer hardware and software to


    carry out a goal outside of the creator‘s original intention. People who slot in
    computer hacking actions and activities are often entitled as hackers. The majority of
    people assume that hackers are computer criminals. They fall short to identify the
    fact that criminals and hackers are two entirely unrelated things. Media is liable for
    this. Hackers in realism are good and extremely intelligent people, who by using
    their knowledge in a constructive mode help organizations, companies, government,
    etc. to secure credentials and secret information on the Internet.
     This Book is written by keeping one object in mind that a beginner, who is not much
    familiar regarding computer hacking, can easily, attempts these hacks and recognize
    what we are trying to demonstrate. Here we have incorporated the best ethical
    hacking articles in this volume, covering every characteristic linked to computer
    security
     So Take care of yourself and Defend Yourself By hacking the hacker and be safe
    after that. So If you know how to hack a hacker then you can know how to prevent
    the hacker.
    Acknowledgements

    Book or volume “Art of hacking” is tremendously complex to write,


    particularly without support of the Almighty GOD.. I am more than
    ever thankful tor the inspiration which I got for learning hacking and
    getting such great opportunity to write the book. I am also thankful to
    my partner who facilitated me at various research stages of this book
    and helped me to complete this book and mentioned me new
    suggestion for the book To finish, I am thankful to you also as you are
    reading this book. I am sure this will book make creative and
    constructive role to build your life more secure and alert than ever
    before Again Nothing but “Hack It and Have It...”
