I say cracker, because to old school hackers, "hacking" was staying up late to hack out more lines of code for your project. Cracking is what you did to other systems. With that said...
SWAT officers expected to find a victim shot to death, drugs and a belligerent armed suspect when they surrounded the home of an unsuspecting couple, but found they were only a part of a false emergency call caused by a teenager who hacked into the county’s emergency response system, authorities said (http://www.ocregister.com/news/home-emami-county-1894171-ellis-system).
As if that isn't hairy enough, Kevin Mitnick was once linked to hacking NORAD (http://www.siliconvalleysleuth.com/2005/03/security_forget.html)
I believe someone here was talking about the power of the "Storm" worm? Well its apparently available to the highest bidder. (http://blogs.zdnet.com/security/?p=592)
Threats don't just come on two or four legs. Keep a weather eye, and be wary of all.
