Ethical Hacking 101
In today's digital landscape, software security is paramount. To safeguard applications from cyber attacks, developers must embrace Ethical Hacking—an innovative approach that empowers them to uncover vulnerabilities and strengthen security measures. Ethical Hacking involves adopting the mindset of malicious hackers to identify weaknesses and fortify defences against unauthorised access, data breaches, and other threats. By integrating this practice into the coding process, developers gain valuable insights, proactively mitigating risks and creating more robust and secure software systems. I took a basic lesson from Snyk about Ethical Hacking, which helps me consider security measures in coding.
