據(jù)說(shuō)，信息安全領(lǐng)域有個(gè)頂級(jí)盛會(huì)叫“黑帽大會(huì)”，每年來(lái)參會(huì)的都是世界各地的黑客高手。可是，為什么他們開(kāi)會(huì)叫“黑帽”大會(huì)呢？難道是因?yàn)槊總€(gè)參會(huì)的都要戴黑帽子？

A black hat is the villain or bad guy, especially in a western movie in which such a character would wear a black hat in contrast to the hero's white hat.

“黑帽”指惡棍或壞蛋，尤其在西部片里，他們一般都戴著一頂黑帽子，而跟他們對(duì)手的正面角色多戴白帽子。

The phrase is often used figuratively, especially in computing slang, where it refers to a computer security hacker who breaks into networks or computers,?creates computer viruses, or commit computer crimes. It may also refer to the act of spamming the internet with personal/social messages where the main intention of spamming is monetization.

在計(jì)算機(jī)領(lǐng)域，“黑帽”多喻指那些侵入計(jì)算機(jī)網(wǎng)絡(luò)、創(chuàng)建計(jì)算機(jī)病毒，或者實(shí)施計(jì)算機(jī)犯罪的電腦黑客。另外，這個(gè)詞也指那種在因特網(wǎng)上四處發(fā)布個(gè)人或社會(huì)信息，旨在從中牟利的行為。

In contrast, those hackers who engage themselves in computer security are called white hats.

相對(duì)的，那些致力于計(jì)算機(jī)安全的電腦黑客則被稱為“白帽”。
