Alot of big companies pay hackers to try to test they're security on websites and mobile apps. Like banks, healthcare insurance companies, and many more. Alot of these websites have alot of personal information like Social security numbers. Hackers are paid really well for testing the security on sites like these.

My answer: film and culture portray hackers, yes, but there's more to it. After all, there are films with people who have every job. Instead the reason is this: in modern times most power structures rely on software in some way. As such hackers represent a challenge to that power. People find hackers cool and sexy, particularly those without much power themselves, because they represent rebellion and a fight back against the structures that control our lives. People don't aspire to be spammers and criminals, they aspire to be Neo, fighting back against Agent Smith.
