  • S01E02: 24 Karat Caper. The Tiger Team tests the security of Jason of Beverly Hills, a custom jeweler located in Beverly Hills, California. In this episode, the Tiger Team employs a social engineering attack, an RFID cloning attack, a complex physical attack, and a safe-cracking attack to gain access to millions of dollars' worth of precious gems and sensitive customer information.

    • Future

    According to Richard Bejtlich at Tao Security, TruTV now says that Tiger Team was a special, and will not become a series.

    The television station A&E is looking into making a similar show with the same cast, but no guarantees.
