The Art of Intrusion: The Real Stories Behind the Exploits of Hackers, Intruders & Deceivers Hardcover - 2005 - 1st Edition

by Kevin D. Mitnick; William L. Simon

In the explosive encore to his bestselling "The Art of Deception," Mitnick, the world's most celebrated hacker, devotes his life to helping businesses and governments combat data thieves, cybervandals, and other malicious computer intruders.


First line

There comes a magical gambler's moment when simple thrills magnify to become 3-D fantasies - a moment when greed chews up ethics and the casino system is just another mountain waiting to be conquered.

From the jacket flap

Four pals clean up in Vegas with a pocket-sized computer. A bored Canadian teen gains access to the wire transfers section of a major Southern bank. A couple of kids are recruited to hack into Lockheed Martin and the Defense Information System Network by a terrorist with ties to Osama bin Laden.

And these stories are true.

If you're the security officer in your organization, the tales in this book crawled out of that closet where your nightmares live. Fears about national security keeping you awake? Put the coffee on; it gets worse. And if you just enjoy a heck of a good cliff-hanger full of spies and real-life intrigue, strap yourself in for a wild read.

About the author

KEVIN MITNICK, whose own exploits have made him a veritable hacker's hero, shares more than a dozen true stories of cyber-invasions--devilishly ingenious, highly effective schemes that kick up your pulse rate even as you marvel at their sheer audacity. Each is followed by Mitnick's expert analysis of how the attack could have been prevented. And he is uniquely qualified to recommend effective security measures. Both a legend in the hacker underworld and a general in the war on cybercrime, Kevin Mitnick holds the one weapon most likely to take down the intruder--intimate knowledge of the hacker's brilliant and tenacious mind.

WILLIAM L. SIMON is an award-winning author and screenwriter who also collaborated with Kevin Mitnick on The Art of Deception.
