Short description
Kevin Mitnick is quite possibly the best hacker in the world. Hunting for more and more information, seeking more and more cyber-trophies every day, he constantly looks for bigger challenges. When he breaks into the computer of a security expert and an ex-hacker, he finds one - and much more than that...

What's left behind the scenes

  • A genuine Tsutomu Shimomura played in one of the cameo roles. At the press conference, he sits next to the character of Donal Logue. Shimomura is a scientist and specialist in the field of information security. Together with journalist John Markoff, he helped the FBI locate and capture the notorious hacker Kevin Mitnick. Shimomura and Markoff wrote a book about this, called "Zero Cool," which was then adapted for the screen.
