Oh lord, I hope my grandma doesn't watch this episode. She already is so paranoid about computers that she truly believes & is terrified she might accidentally hack into the pentagon by clicking on the wrong button while shes playing on her puzzle game. (The singular thing she uses her computer for is her puzzle game.)

For all who don't know this is Kevin mitnick a famous hacker who was so good when he was being watched by the FBI he hacked them and had all personnel files on everyone working on his case and even knew which friends were informants.

This guy was the reason I got into hacking. RIP Kevin. You'll be remembered by all in the community.

How to make parents who barely understand computers paranoid about computers, the Dr. Phil edition.

For the curious, this is relatively easy to do vs other forms of hacking. It's simply a microcontroller with human interface device (HID capabilities), hidden in the USB cable. As most hardware plugged into computers are not verified for their identity, you can masquerade as a normal keyboard.

To sum it up, it opens the run window using Ctrl + R and then proceeds to execute one super long powershell command.

Powershell commands can do everything on windows, such as downloading malware to steal your account hashes, stealing your wifi passwords (Windows very kindly gives you cleartext wifi passwords) and even your browser history in a matter of seconds. It also leaves little traces as it can download full exe files and execute them all in memory, leaving no clues on the disk, and the only clues are in the Windows logs or a full memory analysis.

This is not the way most victims lose their info. It's call centers.

Those who grown up during internet's early days might know his case. His arrest was a testament how our law enforcement was not ready with the new technology at that time. Kevin Mitnick was not a hacker in a sense that he did not bypass security through breaching the security hole in the code. He used social engineering, where users are the biggest security loophole itself. He is pretty smart tho, exploiting users to find his way into the system.

Guess dr. Phil is still using Windows 98, so he should be fine.

[deeabbott]

Yeah that settles it. I'm going back to carrier pigeons.

Rip to Kevin mitnick, a true legend and hero to the ethical hacking and cyber security world😕🙏

[zaayd]

I love how Kevin Mitnick, former #1 fugitive in the 90's, is now tech support for Dr, Phil.

[emileenix]

We use Kevin’s cybersecurity training videos at work. He’s so good at explaining!

From an infamous black hat Hacker to a contributor to hacking society.

[Gameboy...]

They always say " easily" but they don't say how hard it was to acquire all that knowledge

[sweiland]

WOW! I haven't seen Kevin in over a decade since her appeared on The Screen Savers. This guy knows his stuff.

[laf]

I've read all Kevin's books. It crazy seeing him actually live.

[darkfoxa]

I like this. There's really not enough information in the mainstream media to let people see and hopefully understand how a hacker may gain access to a system.
