The function of a cybersecurity professional is to protect the data and systems in the network that are connected to the internet. A hacker tries to find loopholes in a system and break into it. The job of a cybersecurity professional is the same as of a typical hacker, albeit with a difference, I.e. to fix the loopholes in a system before it is exploited by the hackers. An ethical hacker is usually employed by an organization who trusts him or her to attempt to penetrate networks and/or computer systems, using the same methods as a hacker, for the purpose of finding and fixing computer security vulnerabilities. Unauthorized hacking (I.e., gaining access to computer systems without prior authorization from the owner) is a crime in most countries, but penetration testing is done by request of the owner of the targeted systems.

In simpler terms, the difference between cyber security and ethical hacking is where ethical hacking is a computer & networking professional who systematically attempts to go into a computer system or network on behalf of its owners for the purpose of finding security vulnerabilities that a malicious hacker could potentially exploit. In cyber security, you should have the knowledge of hacking & decryption, so that you can stop a hacker from doing bad things. You need to find the digital footprint of the hackers to stop and catch them. Unauthorized hacking is a crime in most of the countries.No matter what stage you're at in your education or career, TuteeHUB will help you reach the next level that you're aiming for.
