Hey, guys, welcome to this new video, as we all know, that nowadays Internet is everywhere.
Anyone can download software from the Internet very easily.
They just need a computer and access to the web, that's all.
There are thousands of hacking and security programs that exist online.
These programs are written by highly skilled programmers.
Many of them are free to download and use.
This can be a blessing to the new user who want to learn cybersecurity.
But it can be spelled trouble when a script kiddies try to use them for hacking purposes.
Now let's talk about what this script is.
A script, kiddie or skiddy, is someone who lacks programming knowledge and use existing software to
launch an attack.
In most of the cases, a script kiddie will use this program without even knowing how they work or what
they do.
For example, imagine a child gets their first computer.
The child, what is a movie about hacking and then downloads a copy of Linux?
They begin playing with the various programs while searching for online tutorials.
At first they may be perceived as nothing more than an Internet noob due to their lack of experience
and quirkiness, to quickness, to brag and boast.
Sometimes they will even resort to cyber bullying and cyber stalking.
Also, cyber bullying and cyber stalking is very bad advice.
However, this may simply be a cover for other more bad activities also.
In short, guys, a script kiddie is a nonsecure person who gain access to a computer system using already
made tools.
