So we are back to the original question: what does this have to do with ethical hacking?
A novice ethical hacker will use tools developed by others who have uncovered specific
vulnerabilities and methods to exploit them. A more advanced ethical hacker will
not just depend upon other people??™s tools, but will have the skill set and understanding
to be able to look at the code itself. The more advanced ethical hacker will be able to
identify possible vulnerabilities and programming code errors, and develop ways to rid
the software of these types of flaws.
