Did you hear what happened when some users entered the HBO database
and obtained the latest Game of Thrones episodes? Do you know what they
did when they obtained these episodes? They threatened HBO that they
would release the episodes before the due date unless HBO coughed up
some money. This is terrible situation for them to have been in. Had HBO
hired the right professionals to check the system, they could have prevented
this type of hack. There are many other hacks that were performed that
allowed a hacker to obtain some sensitive information about the
organization or target system. These professionals are ethical hackers, and it
is important for organizations to hire these professionals to ensure the
security of any network or server.
