a phrase used in the Hackers The Movie referring to hacking into a rather large and powerful computer system called a Gibson (paying homage to cyberpunk author William Gibson).

Also overused by clueless newbies who think they are 31337 by making references to what many consider to be one of the worst computer-related movies of all time.
