1 – The Black Hats form a well integrated community that shares knowledge effectively.
Should you, after months of research and effort, create an exploit that allows you to hack Windows or any other frequently used software product, you can auction the exploit on the internet in a well organised manner……….
2 – Becoming a Black Hat is a career option even for those who are not super geeks.
Time was when Black Hats needed to have a computer science degree or a similar level of exposure to computer technology in order to operate effectively. It’s comforting to know, should you want to become a Black Hat, that the barriers to entering the trade are much lower now. It’s true that you’ll never become a “legendary Black Hat” if you can’t cut a little C++ code………..
3 – There are even specialist virus tools designed to circumvent specific AV products.
You know how it is. You want revenge on some company or other who sold you something that turned out to be dud and refused to allow you to return it. So you send them a virus or two, but you just can’t seem to infect them because the AV technology they use has the signature of every virus at your disposal………….
4 – There are SDKs for the more advanced hackers.
“OK, nice to know that lame-brains can become hackers, but I’m more ambitious than that. I want to cut code with the best of them. I want to be a genuine fully fledged bad-ass Black Hat”. Well Cinderella, you can indeed go to the ball…………..
5 – There’s a market for your data.
OK, I go out onto the net and try an exploit here or there and I hit pay dirt – a whole file of thousands of credit card details. What do I do now?” My advice to you dear boy, is forget about trying to buy stuff on eBay or Amazon with all that stolen data. Simply sell the data and leave it to someone else to do all the dirty work.
6 – There are botnets to rent.
7 – Some rogue websites are very subtly managed.
8 – Good hackers know how to stay safe (they stay abroad)
9 – The banking system has its channels
10 – Not all businessmen are entirely averse to the odd hack (on a competitor)
