Maybe the typing wouldn't be as feverish, but it's possible to be on the same system as a hacker and try to lock him out or track him. The thing is, this is usually not something you want to do, especially in a corporate environment. Generally, you just want to shut down the affected systems and start clean from backups just because there is far too much damage a hacker can do that would be practically impossible to fully trace. If you want to do forensics, it generally is not done live on the hacked system but from a clean environment looking into the affected system. Again, this goes back to the level of trust you can place on an affected system, which isn't much.

If you want to have a nice and entertaining idea as to what hacker vs sysadmin looks like, read The Cuckoo's Egg by Cliff Stoll:

There is a movie based on the book:

To put it into Mythbusters terms: Plausible, but not likely.

Hope this helps!

One of the plot elements in Rainbows End by Verner Vinge is the destruction of university libraries so that they can be reconstructed electronically. Well worth the read as it's in the top ten of hard scifi list and a great plot.

Emmanuel doesn't want you to know the truth. This is a Michael Moore type film - contains heavily slanted true bits. I don't know if anyone has the whole story. This is probably closest.

Ask yourself, why did the cops raid Kevin on his last day of probabtion? They must have had a good reason. You can figure it out by seeing what his 'job' was at the time.
While on the run, he broke lots of laws, and stole phone service and intruded into computers.

He was really really guilty. He will tell you that now. This film was made before he wised up.

Sounds a lot like Neal Stephenson's Reamde novel.

This would be complete picture if only they had THIS book in it.
