Top 5 Most Famous Hackers In The World by johndik(m): 1:29am On Apr 28, 2021
Being a hacker required a lot of your normal life.
At some point or the other, we have genuinely
admired their lack of social skills and wished we
could be on their level of intelligence, even if it
means having no friends.
Here are some of the world’s most dangerous
hackers, they have successfully perfected the art of gaining unauthorized access to networks.

1. Kevin Mitnick
Kevin Mitnick is unarguably the most famous
hacker in the world.
He came to global recognition as a teenager when he stole computer manuals from Pacific Bell in 1981 and got sued to court for the act.
Kevin’s life inspired the popular Hollywood
rendition, War Games. He has served time in prison
on multiple charges of wire and computer fraud.

2. Kelvin Poulsen
Poulsen is equally one of the most dangerous
hackers in the world with bucket load achievements
that buoy his legend even more.
He was formerly a black hat hacker known as Dark
Dante and hacked into the United States Department
of Defense at 17.

3. Robert Morris
Robert Morris created the first computer worm and ended up initiating the first DDOS attack which
affected over 6000 computers.
He was prosecuted for the crime but took almost a year for the prosecutor to prove his intentions.
He is currently a Professor at MIT and Co-Founder of YCombinator.

4. Evgeniy Mikhailovich Bogachev
Evgeniy is also considered one of the world’s most dangerous hackers in the world.
He’s the leader of a notorious cybercrime ring which created the Gameover Zeus virus that earned him over 100 million.
He has been on the FBI’s list of most wanted
criminals since 2009.

5. Hamza Bendelladj
A new-age Robin Hood who takes from the rich andbgives to the less privileged.
He’s a 27 year old Algerian famed for hacking over 217 banks and got away with over 4 billion.
He’s also popular for donating the proceeds of his hack to NGOs in Africa, with over 280 Million
going to a Palestinian NGO paid for from one of his hacks.
