SEE LIVE: Meet The World’s Most Famous Hacker: Kevin Mitnick

Kevin Mitnick is perhaps best known as the hacker who made it onto the FBI’s Most Wanted List for breaking into the computer systems of multiple government agencies and over 40 major corporations.

Mitnick was a fugitive for four years, and after getting caught was put on trial and sentenced to five years in a federal prison, including a year in solitary confinement.

Since leaving prison, Mitnick has changed tack. He still hacks, but now works as a whitehat hacker whose consultancy firm helps clients find the vulnerabilities in their systems so that cyber-criminals don’t find them first.
