Major props to @JC_SoCal & @_sn0ww for creating a mini hacker museum of one of the cellular devices @kevinmitnick’s used for operational security during his time on the run. If you would like to see it - it is currently being housed at the @sec_defcon village. To learn more about Kevin’s story check out Ghost in the Wires a @nytimes bestselling book - his memoir. @defcon #defcon33

treasured memory of the Mitnick security team. No love like a hacker fam love. Everyone we have worked with over the years are more than pentesters, phreakers, hackers of every flavor… are dear friends. It’s a mindset. Hacker culture has never died - it’s evolved and just like infosec it’s forever moving and growing Excited to see old friends of the Mitnicks and meet newcomers to the cyber world. Bring it 😝

I know @KevinMitnick would be beaming knowing that there is a day to celebrate National Social Engineering Day and on his birthday, too - August 6! As far he is concerned he celebrated SE every day 😂. blog.knowbe4.com/national-so…

If @kevinmitnick was here in person, which I know he is from above - he would say thank you to everyone for this award and for accepting him into this industry. Kevin’s life, obsession, hobby, and passion was cyber security. Aside from @kminx - it was his life. I wish he was here. Damn I wish he was here, but he is - just from above

More than 6.2 trillion hashes per second on NTLM. Varies based on workload and other factors but thats the average.

Don’t know how I wasn’t following @kevinmitnick but I have corrected that! My partner @PuckBrandGaming LOVES “Ghost in the Wires” & even came up w/a very plausible social engineering script for my job WITHOUT consulting me! Thanks for inspiring tech love Sir! #hacking #jojoref

If your relationship wasn’t out of this world, now your ex can be. Literally. This #ValentinesDay, you can name an actual piece of trash after your ex in the place you wish you’d sent them: outer space. Reply with their first name only & check here on V-Day for a surprise 🫶🏽

Thank you for the compliment and recommendation!
Book recommendation: I think nearly anyone would benefit from reading @kevinmitnick's Ghost in the Wires. I'm a weirdo who falls asleep to it every night (it's very entertaining). But just reading it once will help you understand the strategies that scammers and phishers use.
