August 26th, 2007

A group of people say that hackers are of no good to community. But we say that they are the most useful persons today on earth in the Internet Age. From when and where it started? It started from the very early age when computers were invented, i.e., in 1960′s when MIT’s Artificial Intelligence Lab became the staging ground for hackers. At that time, they were considered as persons with high mastery of computers. After then in 1970′s John Draper, most commonly known as Captain Crunch who invented making free long distance calls by blowing only a precise tone in telephone that tells the phone system to open a line. After Captain Crunch two members of California’s Homebrew Computer Club begin making Blue Boxes which were used to hack into phone systems. Do you know who the two persons were? They are two of the founders of Apple Inc. Can anyone tell what their names are? They are Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak. In 1980′s came the main computer hacker groups who were the Legion of Doom in United States and the Chaos Computer Club in Germany. In later years of 1990′s, the malicious hackers become very powerful. In 1990′s Kevin Mitnick was arrested who now serves FBI to secure their data and has a firm known as Mitnick Securities. Simultaneously Hackers break into and deface websites which included U.S. Department of Justice, U.S. Air Force, CIA, NASA and many more.
