Thanks Ruchi for referral. Sounds funny. Hackers will do their jobs particularly in USA and FBI will catch with them within a time frame i suppose.

Thanks,Ruchi for well informed article.Perhaps,companies are hiring for straying in to their competitors and for counter planning.For society,hackers can do good by revealing nefarious activities of crooked and expose them.The bad thing is there will be no privacy.

and though people fear that when the first quantum computer becomes available Shor's algorithm would be able to break RSA security and it will actually become easy for crackers ... but then people ignore the fact that by then we would be also using algos that are a little more complex than finding the product of two very large prime numbers (this is what essentially RSA security relies on) ...

well firstly the term hacker itself means 'problem solver' ... the proper term for what we generally mean by 'hacker' is a 'cracker'. Notwithstanding that, however, stopping the menace of cracking is the same as crime ... as crimes increase crime protection units get more sophisticated ... it's the same with crackers ... the more hackers are employed by companies ... the more random cryptography becomes cracking would become more difficult ... and that is the goal ... to make cracking so difficult that it would require very advanced skills ... further advanced forensics mean that even if you have those advanced skills you can still be caught relatively easily ... so it's good for the society that companies are hiring hackers and forensic experts ... it means that the web would be progressively safer for the public as days go by ...

Every lock has a key and hackers have a key of every software and program. It was there and it will be there. Try to be safe but if hacked? what can we do boss.

What ever the precautions or security measures in place we can't stop hackers..It's like Tsunami, earthquake ...can't predict when it will attack... :-)
