A Review: The Art of Invisibility

The Art of Invisibility: The World's Most Famous Hacker Teaches You How to Be Safe in the Age of Big Brother and Big DataThe Art of Invisibility: The World’s Most Famous Hacker Teaches You How to Be Safe in the Age of Big Brother and Big Data by Kevin D. Mitnick

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I’ve read all of Kevin’s books. His books continue to be very readable and I am certain anyone will learn from his books regardless of what level you are at.

What I love about this book, Kevin explains how one can hide from the Internet, and he doesn’t make it easy. Hiding and being anonymous takes much effort, more so than most people are willing to do. Not only does Kevin give you tips on how to hide, he gives you details on how to do it. From changing your MAC address, using burner phones, encrypted VPN’s, fake emails addresses, anonymous browsers, you can hide if you put the work in.

He makes a few references to his book Ghost in the Wires, so I suggest reading that book before diving into this one, but not a requirement. The contact in this book stands on its own.
