With a growing number of attackers moving beyong pure cyber attack scenarios into blended hardware on flesh methods combined with automated software strategies to fully realize world class exploit trees for maximum effect, this hardware involved wetware attack can be ignored no longer. This paper introduces and details a wide variety methods from simple brass knuckles or fist packs to elaborate mental models of exploitation implying pain to the genitals, elaborate set pieces, and trained performances. we show how this taxonomy of coercion can be leveraged to extract passwords and obtain information with great efficiency and efficacy according to a framework we put forth...
