hack technics

[gangstified at gmail.com (lord maximus)]

well to start it off... Hacking in my own opinion, is a state of mind....

I won't go into what exactly a hacker main focuses are, but they should be
to get in any way possible, leaving no footprint or logs. So thinking using
the state of mind factor, you could say if one think doesn't work (like
subverting windows 2003 SP1 kernel integrity protection", you'd find another
way todo the same thing, or some other way into a machine in a given attack.

It also depends if your talking live hacking of a machine, or hacking of
software.
