HACKEP or OF the SECURITY !
Adrian Lamo , hacker without home, more famous of the world to duer to me generaily in a
building in construction near Horseradish tree Franklin in Philadelphia and when it wakes up goes
to a public computer with connection of the Internet, with the objective of "hurgar" between the
servants of Internet. Nevertheless laptop Toshiba takes always with himself one and a cellular
one, in case of not finding a site available.
1 lick works temporarily like consultant (freelance) of security, to order of corporations.
The past January of the 2002 found a flight in the hermetic network of the Excite@Home
corporation . This young person of 21 years shows that she is helping to the companies and the

For 2 years, I have been licking was done well-known in the circles of
hackers to the salary entered in the networks of America on Line ,
HYahoo and Worldcom , informing to its administrators the form how it
