👉 Hack engineering, often associated with ethical hacking and penetration testing, involves the systematic application of technical skills to identify vulnerabilities in computer systems, networks, and software applications. It entails a deep understanding of programming languages, system architectures, and security protocols to simulate real-world cyberattacks. Ethical hackers use various tools and techniques, such as network scanning, exploitation of known vulnerabilities, and social engineering, to uncover weaknesses that could be exploited by malicious actors. The goal is not to cause harm but to strengthen security by providing actionable insights and recommendations for improving defenses before unauthorized access occurs.
