I’m a software engineer, so basically anything involving software/hacking. It’s always inaccurate. (Because accurate hacking is incredibly boring.)
Except for that one scene in The Matrix Reloaded where we get to see actual vulnerabilities exploited.
That looks like the closest to realistic hacking I’ve seen, until you get to the graphical password box that starts flashing “access granted”. None of my SSH servers have ever done that.
But, credit where credit is due, at least she’s using realistic hacking tools.
I'm pretty sure we can do this with a bash script. Now I want it.
Mr Robot has some pretty accurate hacking and social engineering in it.
It'd be remiss not to mention Mr. Robot somewhere in this conversation.
"I'll create a GUI interface using Visual Basic, see if I can track an IP address"
I’ve never seen that one. I think that’s my new favorite line.

So you don’t type 90 wpm your way into the mainframe for work? You might need chew some more gum and change your laptop theme to black and green.
No, you need two people typing on the same keyboard to prevent a hacker from infiltrating their system.
Here's some sugar for you
