Jeffrey Katzenberg is a guinea pig for hacking demonstration
Rachel Tobac is an ethical hacker, someone who is hired to demonstrate vulnerabilities and weaknesses in systems. She’s also the head of Social Proof Security, a company that provides training to organizations that may be most at risk to being compromised.
In March, social engineer Tobac and her co-conspirator Evan Tobac participated in a demonstration of how easy it can be for a skilled hacker to get into Dreamworks co-founder Jeffrey Katzenberg’s computer.
