(*)Hackers are "persons who delight in having an intimate understanding of the internal workings of a system, computers and computer networks in particular".  People who engage in illegal activities like unauthorised entry into computer systems are called crackers and don't have anything to do with hacking.  BruCON doesn't promote any illegal activities and behaviour.  Many hackers today are employed by the security industry and test security software and systems to improve the security of our networks and applications.  In addition, for the younger generations, we want to create some awareness and interest in IT students to learn more about IT Security.}}
