The world's most infamous hacker offers an insider's view of the low-tech threats to high-tech securityKevin Mitnick's exploits as a cyber-desperado and fugitive form one of the most exhaustive FBI manhunts in history and have spawned dozens of articles, books, films, and documentaries. Since his release from federal prison, in 1998, Mitnick has turned his life around and established himself as one of the most sought-after computer security experts worldwide. Now, in The Art of Deception, the world's most notorious hacker gives new meaning to the old adage, "It takes a thief to catch a thief."
Focusing on the human factors involved with information security, Mitnick explains why all the firewalls and encryption protocols in the world will never be enough to stop a savvy grifter intent on rifling a corporate database or an irate employee determined to crash a system. With the help of many fascinating true stories of successful attacks on business and government, he illustrates just how susceptible even the most locked-down information systems are to a slick con artist impersonating an IRS agent. Narrating from the points of view of both the attacker and the victims, he explains why each attack was so successful and how it could have been prevented in an engaging and highly readable style reminiscent of a true-crime novel. And, perhaps most importantly, Mitnick offers advice for preventing these types of social engineering hacks through security protocols, training programs, and manuals that address the human element of security.

It works and I love it!
Scent: Smoky coffee, Size: 4 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I love this product.. been using it for a few months now. My hair is more manageable and my thinning crown looks and feels fuller. The smoky smell, am not bothered because it disappears after a few minutes. I use it twice a week, massage very little amount on scalp and hair, then the next day wash it off with shampoo. I used to need to dye my gray every 3 to 4 months when some appear. Now, it's been 4 months since my last visit to the salon. I noticed my hair has darken a bit. I can delay my salon visit for another month unless I need a haircut!! Yehey!

Good moisturizer. Rich scent.
Scent: Smoky coffee, Size: 4 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Raw Batana Oil provides goods moisturizing to hair and scalp and best applied with a little heat or steam. Pomade goes on easily once heated and does not feel heavy, greasy, or oily. Its rich fragrance eases on the nose after a short while. Difficult to say whether it is actually useful or whether it encourages hair growth. Leaves hair soft and easy to style.

Great buy, good quality and really nice results!
Color: Dark, Color: Dark
I really like how silk and smooth this tanner feels! It’s not sticky tacky goop like some other brands can be and it’s really effective. Applying it went well as the product isn’t too thick or too thin, so making an even coat wasn’t an issue. It has a dark green tint which makes the product give its deep rich glow which is good for some medium toned to darker tone flesh colors. The effect is as though you’ve been in the sun deep in the tropics near the equator getting a daily golden caramel baked glow from some strong sun rays for a couple weeks. Works great and could be used for other than face in a pinch if needed...though you’ll probably want to buy a bigger bottle first because you’ll love it!!

Works great - don't let the dark color freak you out
Color: Dark
I am a reasonably fair skinned Caucasian person whose body can become moderately tan but my face does not, just burns and freckles. I don't tan my face at all and require a self tanner that makes my face color match my body. I have tried many expensive ones, and this is the best and most reasonably priced I have found. The stain works almost immediately and dries quickly so you have to work fast to smooth it evenly over your face. I skip the step of wearing a glove to apply and wash my hands immediately afterward but usually have to scrub with a wash cloth to get the color off. if you wait several minutes, you can add another layer to deepen the color (wash hands in between layers) but I use a generous amount with the first application so I usually don't have to. Most of the other facial self tanners I have tried have not been dark enough, even with multiple applications. This gives you a noticeable tan with just one application. Warning: it comes out of the bottle very alarmingly dark but it won't be dark like that after you apply it.

Great face self tanner
Color: Dark, Color: Dark
I only gave 4 stars because the Dark wasn’t that dark so the product isn’t very pigmented
In a sense that’s good so you don’t go too over board but for someone who’s very fair and wants to get a dark tan it’s probably be difficult
I love the smell, I was parried it would smell funny, the loving tan kind of smells like Dirt and this one smells like flowers and sweets.
Not sticky and fast drying so I think it’s good for the face
