Stealing the Network: How to Own an Identity

Stealing the Network

by Ryan Russell

The first two books in this series, Stealing the How to Own the Box and Stealing the How to Own a Continent, have become classics in the Hacker and Infosec communities because of their chillingly realistic depictions of criminal hacking techniques and strategies. But what happens when the tables turn, and the criminal hackers become the targets of both law enforcement and each other? What happens when they must evade detection by creating new identities and applying their skills to get out fast and vanish into thin air? In Stealing the How to Own an Identity, the hacker crew you've grown to both love and hate find themselves on the run, fleeing from both authority and adversary. They must now use their prowess in a way they never expected - to survive.

Not as good as its predecessor, How to Own a Continent. If you're just going to read one of these, I'd go with that one instead.

A great story. The technical details are no longer relevant as technology moves so quickly.

Useful for its insight into social engineering.
