Description
The cyberweapons market is a shadowy world where the most coveted tools in a spy's arsenal are bought and sold. Under cover of classification levels and non-disclosure agreements, the US government has long been the world's dominant hoarder of zero days - a software bug that allows a hacker to break into devices and move undetected. For decades, US government agents have paid top dollar to hackers willing to sell their lock-picking code and silence. The market has changed hands, however, and the zero days are now in the hands of hostile nations and mercenaries who do not care if your vote is compromised, your clean water is contaminated, or our nuclear plants are at risk. This Is How They Tell Me the World Ends is a gripping account of the global cyber arms race and the urgent threat it poses to us all. Based on years of reporting and hundreds of interviews, the book lifts the curtain on a market in shadow, revealing the shocking truth about the cyberweapons market.
