Remove "defined ethical hacking as going into devices and computer systems belonging to an organization, with its explicit permissions, to assess and test the efficacy of the organization's cybersecurity defenses. Generally, organizations engage the services of ethical hackers either through third-party cybersecurity firms or under contract. Their main job is to identify and fix security gaps before threat-actors find them and exploit them. This proactive approach to cybersecurity testing leads to significant cost savings for organizations." in the Uses section, preceeding the Ethical Hacking subsection. This was meant for the Ethical hacking section but got duplicated somehow. 67.173.111.243 (talk) 19:16, 26 December 2023 (UTC)
