decrypt the message.

A grey hat hacker is a combination of a Black Hat and a White Hat

system for the sole purpose of notifying the administrator that their
system has been hacked, for example. Then they may offer to repair their
system for a small fee.

someone who is able to manipulate the inner workings of computers,
information, and technology to work in his/her favor.
