If you are looking for the latest cutting edge computer hacking techniques you are not going to get them in this show. The computer angle is only mentioned in passing and in very general terms. This makes sense because most people watching this are not going to understand or even care. They do use some good tech hacks though. They plant a remote control trojan in Episode 1 and in Episode 2 use a wireless cam and get into the customers servers by posing as PC repair people.

Otherwise it is a throughly entertaining lesson in the frailties of physical security. They break into some insanely security conscious places ( a super high end jewelry store and a rare auto dealership) and make out with the goods. This is a real wakeup call for everyone and pretty much mirrors what I said in my pen test vs assessment post.  Not many organizations can withstand a  direct focused attack, either physical or electronic on there resources.

I hope to see some more of these, they are a blast to watch.
