Hacker extraordinaire Kevin Mitnick delivers the explosive encore
to his bestselling "The Art of Deception"
Kevin Mitnick, the world's most celebrated hacker, now devotes his
life to helping businesses and governments combat data thieves,
cybervandals, and other malicious computer intruders. In his
bestselling The Art of Deception, Mitnick presented fictionalized
case studies that illustrated how savvy computer crackers use
"social engineering" to compromise even the most technically secure
computer systems. Now, in his new book, Mitnick goes one step
further, offering hair-raising stories of real-life computer
break-ins-and showing how the victims could have prevented them.
Mitnick's reputation within the hacker community gave him unique
credibility with the perpetrators of these crimes, who freely
shared their stories with him-and whose exploits Mitnick now
reveals in detail for the first time, including: A group of friends
who won nearly a million dollars in Las Vegas by
reverse-engineering slot machinesTwo teenagers who were persuaded
by terrorists to hack into the Lockheed Martin computer systemsTwo
convicts who joined forces to become hackers inside a Texas prisonA
"Robin Hood" hacker who penetrated the computer systems of many
prominent companies-andthen told them how he gained accessWith
riveting "you are there" descriptions of real computer break-ins,
indispensable tips on countermeasures security professionals need
to implement now, and Mitnick's own acerbic commentary on the
crimes he describes, this book is sure to reach a wide audience-and
attract the attention of both law enforcement agencies and the
media.
