With the passage of time, computer hacking is going on at a very high rate. Computer hackers generally succeed by remaining one step ahead of the security administrators of the organization. As peer-to-peer network enable the individual’s computer and files to share among millions of other people across the world, it increases the chances of hacking the system. Some hackers even try to expose the computers to virus and worms. Moreover these persons sometimes specially design worms to distribute in peer-to-peer networks only.
The worst can be that a computer cannot be 100% hacker proof but the person concerned can reduce the chances of the attack if any. The employees can regularly have a check on the companies’ secret data by scanning the right newsgroups and mailing lists. As our company wants to more safe and secure against any kind of hacking, hiring a ‘white collar’ hacker will be good decision. But the company has to craft entirely new security policy for the employees and the stakeholders. The best place to look for such a trustworthy person is within the company ranks. It will be more favorable if a group of employees are entitled for this job. Moreover, to have a check on them a team leader can also be positioned. Background checks can also be conducted to see how the hired ones are working.
We can say that Information security is a mindset as it is one of the essential factors for any organization. This is due to the fact that if the information which is important may fall into the hands of unknown access, then this kind of breach of security can be disastrous. Information security is required to ensure privacy for an individual, an organization, an institute or any other firm. Although it is a bit risky to hire some hacker but still if the decision is taken then in my opinion any internal employee will be the best for this
