      Depends on what you define as hacking. If you are talking about someone else logging into your facebook account, then it is not that hard, he/shoe could just have guessed your password, or fooled you into entering your password into a fake site looking like facebook.
      On the other hand, if you are talking about more serious stuff, like people stealing money from banks, or stealing government secrets, then they use much more sophisticated methods. They remotely connect to the computers they want to hack into, runs programs which lets them go past the security system of those computers, and get what they need.
