I like to pause movies when some code is shown and see what it is. Apparently you can break into pentagon by knowing basic sql and high-level employees have alternate life writing tcp implementations and graphics libraries.
Occasionally there are some real treats in those snippets. I remember being floored when Trinity exploited a real ssh v1 bug in Matrix Reloaded.
My memory is probably faulty but didn't she use nmap too?
Yep. (Discussed more than once on HN, which is why I know this link exists:)

Yes.

Well, at least movies no longer run the ka-chunka-ka-chunka ASR-33 teletype sounds when showing text on a screen.
I felt like a movie hacker when doing literal
SELECT * FROM military_bases
On a public dataset :)
I paused the film to catch Lisbeth Salander, brilliant hacker and investigator, doing exactly this kind of complex query.
I guess the brilliant hacking was the bit you don’t see getting access to the super secure database in the first place?
Do we actually think you couldn't though? Probably unintentionally accurate.
I guess there might be Bobby 'insert into EMPLOYEES...' tables somewhere.
Render your local file tree, win a free pentagon entry
Also hackers in movies never use a mouse!
Alng the same lines: movies and tv shows have taught me that there are no door knobs in the future.
