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 machines; two teenagers who
were persuaded by terrorists to hack into the Lockheed Martin
computer systems; two convicts who joined forces to become hackers
inside a Texas prison; and, a "Robin Hood" hacker who penetrated
the computer systems of many prominent companies and then told them
how he gained access. With 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.
