The Seven Types of Hackers
Roger Grimes has an article describing “the seven types of malicious hackers.” I generally like taxonomies, and this one is pretty good.
He says the seven types are:
- Cyber criminals
- Spammers and adware spreaders
- Advanced persistent threat (APT) agents
- Corporate spies
- Hactivists
- Cyber warriors
- Rogue hackers
