In the digital age, you can run but you can’t hide.
Frank M. Ahearn is an expert in deception. As a skip tracer, privacy expert and social engineer, he makes people with extreme privacy issues disappear, and he finds those who do not want to be found.
To understand how to disappear, one must understand how to hunt people via pretext. Frank takes you to the days prior to the internet and tell you how he extracted private information from phone companies, banks, credit card companies, airlines an even law enforcement agencies.
We fast-forward to the digital age, and Frank demonstrates how people are located by utilising online and offline information.
In this talk, he will look at how we can learn to protect ourselves in the digital age.
