RIP Kevin Mitnick: Former most-wanted hacker dies at 59

Post by Losbot »

Kevin Mitnick, probably the world's most-famous computer hacker – and subsequently writer, public speaker, and security consultant – has succumbed to pancreatic cancer. He was 59.

I had the pleasure of meeting Mitnick about 3 yrs ago. We spoke for a bit about a few security tools and he was not what I was expecting. Very interesting person. He gave me one of his famous "business cards" like the one linked in the article.

May he Rest in Peace
