Features: "Network Theft – 10 Stories of Hacker Invasions" is a unique novel-style book. It consists of 10 fictional stories, yet the technologies involved in them are real. Even if such stories have never occurred, there is no reason to say why they couldn’t happen. You might argue that it provides a roadmap for criminal hackers; but I would say it offers something else as well: it reveals the innovative thinking of modern hackers, who claim it’s a game of intellect. – Excerpted from the preface written by Jeff Moss, CEO of Black Hat Company.
