I would classify social engineering and trojans as fraud, not as hacking.

well you're on your own there... not only is it hacking, but the best kind of hacking.

having "anna kournikova naked" as a subject line in an email which is actually carrying malicious cargo (worm, trojan, whatever...) would constitute fraud, don't you think???

well i think clicking on that kind of email constitutes stupidity not fraud.

seriously, the whole 'hacking' nomenclature has been seriously distorted by the media - phrases like 'code hacking' have been so mis-used that their original meaning - writing powerful, clever, simple code that solved complexs problems - has been way lost.

I can recall my brothers enthusiasm for writing programs for old mainframes (DEC KL10s and VAXs at Uni of Qld) that did highly complex stuff with very little CPU and RAM overhead - that's what hacking was all about - not writing brute-force scripts to crack poorly configured servers....
</rant>

hacking just evolved... now you have whitehats and blackhats and who knows what other shite.

maybe that was a bad example due to its high exposure... my point is, a subject line with that sort of tone is meant to exploit HUMAN vulnerabilities... i wonder if you thought clicking on that email was an act of "stupidity" a couple of years ago??? probably not... but hey, hindsight is 20/20.

anyhoo...

4AGE is spot on... thinking like a security administrator. sorry that it is our job to be pessimistic, Squid!! Very Happy

Very Happy

Torque knows the score... you've obviously been watching the news once in a while over the last couple of years Smile
