Introduction to ethical hacking

Before jumping into Ethical hacking and hacking tips and tricks, it is needed to know what is ethical hacking all about and why do you need this and where you need this? You must know such aspects before you put yourselves into ethical hacking.  Just assume that you are in need of accessing your own security parameters of your system, to fix several issues related to it. If you do this, it’s also a kind of ethical hacking because all you want to do is to ensure your own safety and security of your information systems no matter whether you are a corporate owner or a home based user.  Security is must.
So now I successfully explained without any details that ethical hacking is some kind of security testing and related parameters. That is, testing your security related issues legally. So you need not worry about legal concerns if you really start in the right way. This is not at all the complete definition of ethical hacking and I cannot provide you a scientific or technical explanation just like Wikipedia does.
unless you donot know what are the security holes and vulnerability in your system yo cannot protect it. Ethical Hacking or penteration testing is just like that. There are now many certified courses are available for the ethical hacking.
I will put it in later posts.
