What Is a Hacker?

Anyone that can adapt, improvise and overcome. This term can be applied to any field though most commonly used today to suggest one that utilizes extensive computer and network knowledge to remove any obstacles in their path to gain access to any data they require access to or accomplish any goal or mission in the computing field.
