Kevin Mitnick, the world's most wanted computer hacker, managed to hack into some of the country's most powerful - and seemingly impenetrable - agencies and companies. By conning employees into giving him private information and maneuvering through layers of security, he gained access to data that no one else could.
This book unfolds as Mitnick disappears on a three-year run from the FBI. He creates fake identities and finds jobs at a law firm and hospital - all while continuing to hack into computer systems and phone company switches that were considered flawless.
