KnowBe4 had the pleasure of visiting with Kevin Mitnick last week, also known as "The Worlds Most Famous Hacker".
Kevin was in the Clearwater area for a board meeting as well as to meet with our technical team to discuss new innovations to our security awareness platform. This was the first time Kevin has visited since the company's grand opening back in September. This visit was so beneficial for our staff because they were given the opportunity to get to know him on a more personal level. The afternoon was spent chatting over a yummy catered lunch, followed by a hour of "ask Kevin anything". Kevin informed the staff on what the hackers are currently up to and the new ways they are trying to deceive the end user. Kevin also gladly shared some of his own hacking stories, which is what everyone is always most curious about.
As if that wasn't enough, Kevin stuck around to autograph several copies of his New York Times bestseller, titled 'Ghost in the Wires: My Adventures as the World's Most Wanted Hacker'. Follow the link to get your own copy of Ghost in the Wires!
