Let's talk about White hat hackers.A white hat hacker is a computer security specialist who breaks into protected systems and networks to test their security.White hat hackers use their skills to improve security by exposing vulnerabilities before malicious hackers can detect and exploit them.
Although the methods used by both are the same, but the difference is white hat hacker has permission to employ them against organization however black hat hackers do not use them officially.
Black Hat Hackers ?
The term "black hat hacker" is derived from old Western movies, in which the good guys wore white hats and the bad guys wore black hats.A black hat hacker is a person who attempts to find computer security (weaknesses and) vulnerabilities and exploit them for personal financial gain or other malicious reasons.This differs them from white hat hackers. Black hat hackers can inflict major damage on individual computer users as well as large organizations by stealing personal financial information, compromising the security of major systems, or shutting down or altering the function of websites and networks.
Grey Hat Hackers ?

The Gray hat hackers do not act with malicious intent but they do it for their fun, they exploit a security weakness in a computer system or network without the owner’s permission.Their intent is to bring the weakness to the attention of the owners and getting appreciation in terms of some reward from the owners.

Script kiddie?
A script kiddie is a non-expert who breaks into computer systems by using pre-packaged automated tools written by others.
They have nothing do with the tool's code, or how commands in the tools are working. They just download the tools and use them.
Neophyte ?
A neophyte is someone who is new to hacking or phreaking and has almost no knowledge or experience of the workings of technology and hacking.
