Cyber Wars

I found it a fascinating book. I wish that all history books were so inviting and intelligent

Thanks to the publishers and NetGalley for the opportunity to read an advance copy of this publication in return for an unbiased review of the publication.
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.

Our level of Internet connectivity is reaching every day more complex stages, but as long as we are simply users of the network, we are openly victims of attacks of all kinds. Cyber wars can target any of us, enough is only an Internet network and a connected device. Not only all your years-long work can be compromised with a click, but also you can further affect other people part of the network.
Cyber Wars by Charles Arthur explains this sort of threats in a very easy way, still keeping the relevance of the topic. Through examples of cyber attacks that shoked the world in the last decades, predominantly from the business domain, the ways in which such threats operate and the psychological and professional profiles of the perpetrators are simply outlines. What is even more relevant, is the short outlines at the end of each chapter which suggestions and advice for preventing such situations and reacting when one is the unhappy victim of such a terrible occurence.
Recommended to scholars, business owners and anyone interested to start coping in a responsible way with the Internet challenges.
