Surviving Cyberwar

Military and intelligence leaders agree that the next major war is not likely to be fought on the battleground but in cyberspace. Recent cyber attacks on U.S. government departments and the Pentagon corroborate this claim. Every day, thousands of attempts are made to hack into America's critical infrastructure. These attacks, if successful, could have devastating consequences. In Surviving Cyberwar, author Richard Stiennon examines cyber threats and where they come from, and explains how defensive technologies can be used to counter cyber attacks and to secure American infrastructure.
