Publisher's Synopsis
'Cult of the Dead Cow' is the tale of the oldest, most respected, and most famous American hacking group of all time. Though until now it has remained mostly anonymous, its members invented the concept of hacktivism, released the top tool for testing password security, and created what was for years the best technique for controlling computers from afar, forcing giant companies to work harder to protect customers. This book shows how governments, corporations, and criminals came to hold immense power over individuals and how we can fight back against them.
