Some readers ask me how a hacking tool like Cain & Able can be legal? I always reply, most malicious hackers don’t use Cain & Able. They already have their hacking tools. Cain & Able just makes it point and click so us stupid whitehat hackers can use a tool and see how easy it is. Cain & Able isn’t a malicious hacker tool (although I suppose it is used maliciously all the time). It’s a demo tool for the good guys and girls to learn how to hack like the bad guys and girls, and to demo stuff to management.
