Security of the Web

Hi there! I am currently on the JavaScript Full Stack Techdegree and I was just curious about something. When we hear on the news or just in general conversation that someone hacked a website or a database or etc, does that mean that the hacker was able to access the code for the website and change it or something. For example if someone hacked my website that I use just for projects on Treehouse and such, does that mean they simply crashed it or that they have admin access? Is there any computer/internet security courses on Treehouse? Thanks in advance!
