Four things hackers don't want you to know

It’s something of a cliché to say that hackers are shady types, often lurking in the shadows.

Like most clichés however, this contrivance does have an element of truth in it. The fact is that hackers often work just as hard to keep themselves and their tactics hidden as they do to find vulnerabilities to exploit.
