History of Hacking

1. The word "hack" was first of all used by US University Computing Centre staff in the mid =1960s. The context determined whether the complimentary or derogatory meanings were implied. Phrases such as "ugly hack" or "quick hack" generally referred to the latter meaning; phrases such as "cool hack" or "neat hack", to the former. In modern computer programming, a "hack" can refer to a solution or method which functions correctly but which is "ugly" in its concept, which works outside the accepted structures and norms of the environment, or which is not easily extendable or maintainable (see kludge). The programmer keeps beating on it until a solution is found. The jargon used by hackers is called "Hackish" (see the Jargon file). This should not be confused with "1337" or "leetspeak."

WHAT IS HACKING ?

1. 
   
   Any act in which a person or a group - try to enter in a computer(s), system(s), electronic machine(s), server or any software based electronic machine(s), in such a manner that they have some sick/ illegal mentality either to damage the system or to take un-social/ anti social benefit(s), in any manner is called hacking.
2. 
   
   Computer is a very flexible machines constrained by software to operate in very specific ways. Hacker is an individual who come up with novel, complex, simple or elegant ways of writing new software that restates or replaces the existing constraints thereby exposing either some new functionality / some of the original flexibility of the underlying machine(s).
3. 
   
   Hacking (English verb to hack, singular noun a hack) refers to the re-configuring or re-programming of a system to function in ways not facilitated by the owner, administrator, or designer. The term(s) have several related meanings in the technology and computer science fields, wherein a "hack" may refer to a clever or quick fix to a computer program problem, or to what may be perceived to be a clumsy or inelegant (but usually relatively quick) solution to a problem, such as a "kludge".

Is Hacking Always Bad?



Although the history of hacking is relatively unknown to most of the public, it's quite interesting to read about it. It doesn't matter if you aren't a computer expert or a system administrator of a big corporation. Computers are as much part of our history as airplanes and cars, and it should be common knowledge to know how they came to be. It's the only way you can understand the effects of computer hacking in our life.
