Omschrijving
Explore the most significant cyber attacks in recent years and get exclusive insight into hackers' techniques, the dramatic consequences and the lessons we should all learn from them.
"A terrifying analysis of the dark cyber underworld."
"Timely, well-written, informed, and entertaining. Reading this book will place you amongst those who really know where history suggests we are heading with cyber security. It won't surprise you to know the prospect isn't pretty. Essential reading for everyone who uses technology - and these days that's everyone."
"Drawing lessons from the avoidable mistakes of others, Arthur presents insights into the greatest information security failures of our time that no business of any size can afford to ignore."
"This is not a difficult review for me to write as I absolutely loved this book which covered a number of the widest reported online frauds of the last twenty or so years and what was learned from them. It has certainly made think about my own online security and I suggest it will do likewise to others that read this. A solid five star effort."
"I found it a fascinating book. I wish that all history books were so inviting and intelligent."
"Charles Arthur's Cyber Wars takes the reader through some well-known and not so well-known hacks: Sony Pictures, HBGary, John Podesta's inbox, TJX, ransomware, TalkTalk, and Mirai. Each chapter concludes with some lessons and suggestions, but the reality is that we will never make every system secure. We can simply make it a tad harder for the hackers to penetrate "our space" and either gain access to our data or lock us out from it. The tales of woe told here explore the range of tools hackers have used. For those of us with zero hacking skills it's an enlightening, if depressing, read."
