The Art of Deception
|
Inviting you into the complex mind of the hacker, Mitnick provides realistic scenarios of cons, swindles, and social
engineering attacks on businesses-and the consequences. Focusing on the human factors involved with information security,
Mitnick explains why all the firewalls and encryption protocols in the world will never be enough to stop a savvy
grifter intent on rifling a corporate database or an irate employee determined to crash a system. He illustrates just
how susceptible even the most locked-down information systems are to a slick con artist impersonating an IRS agent or
any other seemingly innocent character. Narrated from the points of view of both the attacker and the victim, The Art
of Deception explores why each attack was so successful and how it could have been averted in an engaging and highly
readable manner reminiscent of a true-crime novel.
