Synopsis

In How I Rob Banks: And Other Such Places, renowned ethical hacker FC delivers a gripping and often hilarious discussion of his work: testing the limits of physical bank security by trying to "steal" money, data, and anything else he can get his hands on. In the book, you'll explore the secretive world of physical assessments and follow FC as he breaks into banks and secure government locations to identify security flaws and loopholes.

The author explains how banks and other secure facilities operate, both digitally and physically, and shows you the tools and techniques he uses to gain access to some of the world's most locked-down buildings. You'll also find:

● strategies you can implement immediately to better secure your own company, home, and data against malicious actors

● an inside and candid look at a rarely examined industry through the eyes of one of its most respected penetration testers

A can't-miss account of real-life security exploits perfect for infosec pros, including red and blue teamers, pentesters, CIOs, CISSPs, and social engineers, How I Rob Banks also belongs in the hands of anyone who loves a great Ocean's 11-style story pulled straight from the real world.

Goodreads review by Christopher on September 26, 2024

Written with all the verve and anecdotal wit of a fourth grader, this book is the confessional of a corporate shill who protects power figures from little people, ensuring their doors are locked, servers stowed away, and security guards suitably thuggy. It's laughable, the entire schtick, from the e......more

Goodreads review by Steve on July 09, 2023

I have followed the author on social media for sometime after hearing sn interview he was on previously and I find his work fascinating. This book has shocked me at how some companies lack security training all together but it has also made me think about some of the security in my job role. I highly......more
