[PLUG] Fwd: [slug] Virtual Kevin Mitnick


from our local linux group, this one might be of interest to you...

----- Forwarded message from Tom Stepleton <tss@sccs.swarthmore.edu> -----

In the mid-90s, Kevin Mitnick was a prolific cracker who infiltrated many
systems. He was eventually caught and, depending on your interpretation of
the ruling, unfairly made an example of. Even today he is forbidden from
pursuing a job in computers - for a while, maybe even now, he was
forbidden from using them at all.

Tsutomu Shimomura, the government-hired investigator who finally got
Mitnick in 1995, recorded some of his evil telnet sessions. Now you can
watch those recordings and brush up on your 'leet hacker skillz!

See http://www.kuro5hin.org/?op=displaystory;sid=2000/12/18/175211/32 for
details.

it makes sense, when you don't think about it.
