Ask the Researcher! – Hacking

5/5/2025

ELTE produced its latest video in the “Ask the Researcher!” series at KIBERLAB, this time on the topic of hacking and IT security. Frizsina Palumby, an eighth-grade student, puts her questions to Attila Kovács, lecturer at the Faculty of Informatics at ELTE and head of KIBERLAB, and to Máté Pataki, information security architect at OTP Bank.

The video covers where hackers learn their skills, how long it takes them to crack a password, and what ethical hackers actually do.

The video is available on the university’s YouTube channel: Ask the Researcher! – Hacking
