About this listen

 'From an early age, locked doors, high fences and the secrets kept by businesses, buildings and people, fascinated me. I wanted to find out what they wanted to hide away.'

A burglar for hire, con-artist and expert in deception and physical infiltration – Jenny Radcliffe is a professional people hacker. After being schooled in the art of breaking and entering by her family, she became an expert social engineer, doing an insider’s job to exploit the flaws and weaknesses in top-grade security operations.

In People Hacker, Jenny reveals how she uses her inimitable blend of psychology, stagecraft and charm to gain access to top-grade private and commercial properties. From the back streets of Liverpool to the City of London's Square Mile, across rooftops, cellars and staircases in Europe to the mansions of gangsters in the Far East, Jenny has risked it all to earn the title ‘People Hacker’.

This is Jenny insider’s account of how her working-class upbringing, northern sense of humour and femininity in a male-dominated industry all helped her to become one of the most sought-after social engineers in the world. Told in her trademark colourful style, and packed full of stories of the crazy and dangerous situations she has found herself in along the way, Jenny shines a light on the security mistakes we all make – and how to avoid them.©2023 Jenny Radcliffe (P)2023 Simon & Schuster, UK Security & Encryption Women in Business Business Computer Security Inspiring Thought-Provoking Hacking Technology England

Very interesting collection of some jobs Jenny has endured and a brief history of how she got there. Much of the writing does what it needs to do to have you visualising the (more often than not, mundane office) settings and although Jenny stays calm narrating even when things get tense (stick with her, after the first three or so chapters the reading becomes less awkward), it still has it’s thrilling close calls.

Nice collection of stories from her unique career path

The book is easy to follow. A good insight into the mind of a someone looking for gaps in your security. I felt like Jenny has been reserved is sharing her professional tips and techniques. Feel another book on the cards soon. Look forward to it.

A good read

Fascinating book on why securing technologies fail when you allow a hacker to just walk into your office.

Insight, although redacted, reciting of engagements and outcomes of ‘cons’ based on exploitation.

Great book, opens your eyes to securing way beyond technology.
