Ethical hacking, in my opinion, is as much an oxymoron as it is “constructive criticism”. Before showing that “ethical hacking” is just an oxymoron in the literal sense of the term, it is essential to understand the words “ethical” and “hacking” – their origin, meaning and misconception. “Ethics” can be defined as “working according to high morals and professional principles.” The original hacker was a person who loved tinkering with software and hardware, appreciating and exploring how things worked. They would tweak their subject to be faster, better, or different than what it originally was. There was nothing negative about being a hacker, until the word was repeatedly misused by the media as a synonym for "crackers" and "hackers."
