@Kuba Siekierzynski to use it for security knowledge, to help protect apps, programs, and servers. companies will hire for that. of course, like real world theft, hacking could potentially get you out of a troubling situation. likely if you have access to a computer, you're probably well off enough, and it won't be a valid excuse in the law even if you weren't

It can. But it shouldn't. Why would you want to do that?

Don't get in trouble shailaja. You can go to jail. I was into hacking but I quit after seeing some of my hacker friends getting caught

Python can be used as Scripting Language to exploit Access, It is powerful But Using Python is not an Effective method to hack, Depends on Your way to Access, You need to learn Php,Python, Js, etc and Most importantly you need to learn Unix/Linux because most Servers use Unix/Linux
