Top Mitnick Security Quotes

Mitnick Security Quotes By Kevin Mitnick

Penetrating a company's security often starts with the bad guy obtaining some piece of information that seems so innocent, so everyday and unimportant, that most people in the organization don't see any reason why the item should be protected and restricted. — Kevin Mitnick

Mitnick Security Quotes By Karina Halle

I was fucked and I knew it. I had stupidly wandered into some epic rape palace run by meth-addicted hobos and bald men with beards who recently escaped nearby jails and had taken over this place for their torture sessions with hapless young women they found exploring the coast. Even worse, I was going to be the hapless woman who decided to infiltrate their headquarters. — Karina Halle

Mitnick Security Quotes By Erro

I'd love to be considered a post-pop artist, but I love to have five or six different styles in every painting, just for the pleasure of the eye. — Erro

Mitnick Security Quotes By Kevin D. Mitnick

While the Texas prison officials remained in the dark about what was going on, they were fortunate that William and Danny had benign motives. Imagine what havoc the two might have caused; it would have been child's play for these guys to develop a scheme for obtaining money or property from unsuspecting victims. The Internet had become their university and playground. Learning how to run scams against individuals or break in to corporate sites would have been a cinch; teenagers and preteens learn these methods every day from the hacker sites and elsewhere on the Web. And as prisoners, Danny and William had all the time in the world.

Maybe there's a lesson here: Two convicted murderers, but that didn't mean they were scum, rotten to the core. They were cheaters who hacked their way onto the Internet illegally, but that didn't mean they were willing to victimize innocent people or naively insecure companies. — Kevin D. Mitnick

Hacking is exploiting security controls either in a technical, physical or a human-based element. — Kevin Mitnick

Mitnick Security Quotes By Kevin Mitnick

The methods that will most effectively minimize the ability of intruders to compromise information security are comprehensive user training and education.

Even with oversight the policies and procedures may not be effective: my access to Motorola, Nokia, ATT, Sun depended upon the willingness of people to bypass policies and procedures that were in place for years before I compromised them successfully. — Kevin Mitnick

Mitnick Security Quotes By Kevin Mitnick

I keep my stuff updated all the time. Being in the security industry, I keep up to date with securities. — Kevin Mitnick

Mitnick Security Quotes By Kevin D. Mitnick

Mitnick Security Quotes By Geena Davis

Kids need to see entertainment where females are valued as much as males. — Geena Davis

Mitnick Security Quotes By Kevin Mitnick

Businesses should absolutely set aside funding in their budgets for security consultants. Unless there is an expert on staff, and there usually is not, it needs to be outsourced. — Kevin Mitnick

Mitnick Security Quotes By CC Sabathia

I grew up with video games. My generation kind of grew up with the Nintendo and the Sega Genesis. Then, I had a Dreamcast and, finally, the PlayStation. So yeah, I've always been a big gamer. — CC Sabathia

Mitnick Security Quotes By Abu Ammaar Yasir Qadhi

Mitnick Security Quotes By Kevin Mitnick

Mitnick Security Quotes By Kevin Mitnick

We have problems with our physical security, operational security through to management. — Kevin Mitnick

Mitnick Security Quotes By Kevin Mitnick

I don't know the capabilities of our enemies. But I found it quite easy to circumvent security at certain phone companies throughout the United States. So if an inquisitive kid can do it, why can't a cyberterrorist do it? — Kevin Mitnick

Mitnick Security Quotes By Kevin Mitnick

What happens with smaller businesses is that they give in to the misconception that their site is secure because the system administrator deployed standard security products - firewalls, intrusion detection systems, or stronger authentication devices such as time-based tokens or biometric smart cards. But those things can be exploited. — Kevin Mitnick

Mitnick Security Quotes By Kevin Mitnick

It's kind of interesting, because hacking is a skill that could be used for criminal purposes or legitimate purposes, and so even though in the past I was hacking for the curiosity, and the thrill, to get a bite of the forbidden fruit of knowledge, I'm now working in the security field as a public speaker. — Kevin Mitnick

Mitnick Security Quotes By Kevin Mitnick

Most people assume that once security software is installed, they're protected. This isn't the case. It's critical that companies be proactive in thinking about security on a long-term basis. — Kevin Mitnick

Mitnick Security Quotes By Kevin Mitnick

A company can spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on firewalls, intrusion detection systems and encryption and other security technologies, but if an attacker can call one trusted person within the company, and that person complies, and if the attacker gets in, then all that money spent on technology is essentially wasted. — Kevin Mitnick

Mitnick Security Quotes By Giles Matthey

You look for the roles where, when you read it, you're just like, "Yes, I know that. I know that feeling. I know what it means to feel like that. I know this person." When you have a soulful connection to a part, that's a dream come true. — Giles Matthey

Mitnick Security Quotes By Kevin Mitnick

Security is always going to be a cat and mouse game because there'll be people out there that are hunting for the zero day award, you have people that don't have configuration management, don't have vulnerability management, don't have patch management. — Kevin Mitnick

Mitnick Security Quotes By Yoko Ono

John's was not a glum, negative, insulting attack on society but a sharp-witted, entertaining, cock-a-snook approach that encouraged young people to express themselves as individuals and to reject the stifling rigidity of a lot of the older social traditions. Thanks to John, to give one example, regional dialects were no longer looked upon as a hindrance. He made no attempt to tone down his Liverpool accent (indeed, he exaggerated it) and this encouraged others to follow suit. Previously, without cut-glass Oxford English, it was impossible for anyone to make progress in the media. John changed all that, and a great deal more as well. (Desmond Morris) — Yoko Ono

Mitnick Security Quotes By Kevin Mitnick

If I needed to know about a security exploit, I preferred to get the information by accessing the companies' security teams' files, rather than poring over lines of code to find it on my own. It's just more efficient. — Kevin Mitnick

Mitnick Security Quotes By Kevin D. Mitnick

Anyone who thinks that security products alone offer true security is settling for the illusion of security. — Kevin D. Mitnick

Mitnick Security Quotes By Kevin Mitnick

It's true, I had hacked into a lot of companies, and took copies of the source code to analyze it for security bugs. If I could locate security bugs, I could become better at hacking into their systems. It was all towards becoming a better hacker. — Kevin Mitnick

Mitnick Security Quotes By Kevin Mitnick

I characterize myself as a retired hacker. I'm applying what I know to improve security at companies. — Kevin Mitnick

Mitnick Security Quotes By Kevin Mitnick

My hacking was all about becoming the best at circumventing security. So when I was a fugitive, I worked systems administrator jobs to make money. I wasn't stealing money or using other people's credit cards. I was doing a 9-to-5 job. — Kevin Mitnick

Mitnick Security Quotes By Robert Smithson

Language operates between literal and metaphorical signification. The power of a word lies in the very inadequacy of the context it is placed, in the unresolved or partially resolved tension of disparates. A word fixed or a statement isolated without any decorative or 'cubist' visual format, becomes a perception of similarity in dissimilars - in short a paradox. — Robert Smithson

Mitnick Security Quotes By Kevin Mitnick

I get hired by companies to hack into their systems and break into their physical facilities to find security holes. Our success rate is 100%; we've always found a hole. — Kevin Mitnick

Mitnick Security Quotes By Ralph Waldo Emerson

I am Defeated all the time, yet to Victory I am born. — Ralph Waldo Emerson

Mitnick Security Quotes By Kevin Mitnick

People are prone to taking mental shortcuts. They may know that they shouldn't give out certain information, but the fear of not being nice, the fear of appearing ignorant, the fear of a perceived authority figure - all these are triggers, which can be used by a social engineer to convince a person to override established security procedures. — Kevin Mitnick

Mitnick Security Quotes By Kevin D. Mitnick

In the security community, this letter is known by all as a "get-out-of-jail-free card." Pen testers tend to be very conscientious about making sure they always have a copy of the letter with them when they're on or anywhere near the premises of the client company, in case they get stopped by a security guard who decides to flex some muscle and impress the higher-ups with his gumshoe instincts, or challenged by a conscientious employee who spots something suspicious and has enough gumption to confront the pen tester. — Kevin D. Mitnick

Mitnick Security Quotes By Harry Shum Jr.

I'm heavily involved in the creative with choreographer Christopher Scott. I go to rehearsals with 'Glee' and then practice with LXD till about midnight. — Harry Shum Jr.

Mitnick Security Quotes By Kevin Mitnick

A lot of companies are clueless, because they spend most or all of their security budget on high-tech security like fire walls and biometric authentication - which are important and needed - but then they don't train their people. — Kevin Mitnick

Mitnick Security Quotes By Kevin Mitnick

My hacking involved pretty much exploring computer systems and obtaining access to the source code of telecommunication systems and computer operating systems, because my goal was to learn all I can about security vulnerabilities within these systems. — Kevin Mitnick

Mitnick Security Quotes By Kevin Mitnick

But a lot of businesses out there don't see the return on investment, they look at it as a liability, and until they can understand that proactive security actually returns, gives them a return on investment, it's still a hard sell for people. — Kevin Mitnick
