Description
Be online without leaving a trace.
Your every step online is being tracked and stored, and your identity literally stolen. Big companies and big governments need to know and exploit what you do, and privacy is a luxury few can come up with the money for or be aware.
In this explosive yet practical book, Kevin Mitnick uses true-life stories to show exactly what is happening without your knowledge, teaching you “the art of invisibility”–online and real-world tactics to offer protection to you and your family, the usage of easy step by step instructions. Reading this book, you’re going to learn everything from password protection and smart Wi-Fi usage to advanced techniques designed to maximize your anonymity.
Kevin Mitnick knows exactly how vulnerabilities may also be exploited and just what to do to prevent that from happening. The world’s most famous–and formerly the US government’s most wanted–computer hacker, he has hacked into one of the country’s most powerful and seemingly impenetrable agencies and companies, and at one point was on a three-year run from the FBI. Now Mitnick is reformed and widely regarded as the expert in relation to computer security.
Invisibility isn’t just for superheroes–privacy is a power you deserve and need in the age of Big Brother and Big Data.
