Five Big Misconceptions About Hacking

Think about the first image that comes to mind when you hear the word “hacking”. Is it a Slurpee-drinking slacker from the 90’s hacking away in a dingy basement? Is it someone in a Guy Fawkes mask?

On this episode, we take a look at five big misconceptions about hacking, as well as the surprising truths behind them.
