How will they?

In India you should be of particular caste to get higher education and job. You wont get government job even if you are a topper of an engineering college how will they fight against cyber crime when they are getting admissions and job on caste basis

Even if there were no caste restrictions, would an engineering college topper consider a Govt job ? Extremely unlikely.

replace 'hack into' with 'crack into'

A terrorist 'hacks into' a machine with malintent. The word 'hack into' should be replaced with 'crack into'.

According to The New Hacker's Dictionary (Third Edition, published by MIT Press in 1996), hacker has eight meanings, including "a person who enjoys exploring the details of programmable systems and how to stretch their capabilities," or "who programs enthusiastically, even obsessively," or who's both good and fast at programming, or who's "an expert or enthusiast of any kind ... an astronomy hacker, for example." The eighth entry is more of a concession than a definition, because it begins with the word "deprecated" in brackets: "a malicious meddler who tries to discover sensitive information by poking around." The New Hacker's Dictionary immediately states that the correct word is cracker, which it defines as "one who breaks security on a system."

The most telling passages deal with connotation not denotation. "Hackers consider themselves something of an elite, a meritocracy based on ability," the book states.
"There is thus a certain ego satisfaction to be had in identifying yourself as a hacker." On the other hand, it claims that while "crackers often like to describe themselves as
hackers, most true hackers consider them a separate and lower form of life." In addition
to being viewed as less talented, crackers are accused of not following a code of ethics — for example, committing acts of theft and vandalism for fun.
