    [synopsis] => When she arrived at MIT in the 1990s, Alien wanted to study aerospace engineering, but she was soon drawn to the school's venerable tradition of high-risk physical trespassing: the original “hacking.” Within a year, one of her hallmates was dead, two others were on trial, and two had been institutionalized. And Alien's adventures were only just beginning.

After a stint at the storied, secretive Los Alamos National Laboratory, Alien was recruited by a top cybersecurity firm where she deployed her large cache of virtual weapons, and the trespassing and social engineering talents she first developed while “hacking” at MIT. The company tested its clients' security by every means possible, not just coding, but donning disguises and sneaking past guards and secretaries into the C-suite. She once got into the vault of a major bank by posing as its auditor.

Alien now runs her own boutique hacking outfit that caters to some of the world's biggest and most vulnerable institutions-banks, retailers, government agencies. Her work combines devilish charm, old-school deception, and next-generation spycraft.
