    Just because the technologies don't exist doesn't mean he didn't read about them. Perhaps NASA has some dummy files set up to occupy anyone that actually does it get in. It's happened before where a guy needed to slow down a hacker in order for a trace to be performed. The non-fiction story is written in the book The Cuckoo's Egg
