Description
Cyber Mercenaries: The State, Hackers, and Power By Tim Maurer, Cambridge University Press The relationships between states and hackers have become increasingly complex in the modern era. States are now using hackers as proxies to project power and influence in cyberspace, a development that poses significant risks to global security, stability, and human rights. This book examines case studies from around the world, including the United States, Iran, Syria, Russia, and China, to better understand the impact of cyber proxies on global politics. By exploring different models for state-hacker relationships, Maurer sheds light on the challenges of balancing benefits with costs and managing the risks of escalation. The book provides a framework for understanding and managing the role of cyber proxies in international relations, making it an essential resource for scholars, policymakers, and anyone interested in the intersection of technology and global politics.
