We all know not to open .exe's attached in email, but is it safe to open a document? Is it possible for a remote attacker to gain full access to a victim machine just because the victim opened the wrong PDF or DOC file? In this TEDx talk we will explore how and why it's possible to get hacked with a single mouse click - just by opening the wrong document or by viewing the wrong web page. We will then put the audience behind the wheel and demonstrate such at attack from the attackers point of view.
