"Savvy technologists have painstakingly developed information-security solutions to minimize the risks connected with the use of computers, yet left unaddressed the most significant vulnerability, the human factor. Despite our intellect, we humans - you, me, and everyone else - remain the most severe threat to each other's security."

# Yes and #privacy and #security is **not** about being an expert but knowing we are human and **will** make mistakes. Privacy and security are a **safety net** when we do slip up.

I need to read his books. Pry start with Ghost in the Wires. RIP

Great book. Nice starting point. Ghost in the Wires will blow your mind. The Art of Deception was book 1, and it's also a banger. The Art of Intrusion is wicked cool. The Art of Invisibility is also a banger, though some of the tech recommendations are a bit out of date (too much google), the principles still hold strong. RIP Legend.

Also, check out the 2600 films movie 'Freedom Downtime'. It's good stuff.

Thanks for the recommendations. I wasn't sure on the order the books cane out. Didn't know about the movie, that looks really cool too! 😊🤙🏻
