Welcome to our video on understanding the terms used by certified ethical hackers.
First, let's talk about Hack Value. It refers to the usefulness of a successful hack for an attacker. So, the higher the hack value, the more valuable the hack is to the attacker.
Vulnerability is a flaw in the system that can be exploited by a hacker. Vulnerabilities can be weaknesses in code, human error or even physical security lapses.
Exploit is a piece of code or a technique that hackers use to take advantage of a vulnerability and gain access to a system or data.
Payload refers to the specific action or code that is executed after an attacker exploits a vulnerability. Payloads can range from data theft to system shutdowns.
Certified ethical hackers use these terms to understand and discover vulnerabilities in systems, to determine the hack value of an attack and to design effective payloads.
So, there you have it; understanding these terms will give you a clearer understanding of the world of hacking.
