Dawn of the Code War
America's Battle Against Russia, China, and the Rising Global Cyber Threat
Public Affairs, 2018
What's inside?
Former Federal prosecutor John Carlin explains that the United States faces a constant cyberwar that it must resist.
Recommendation
In this eye-opening examination of the war on cyberthreats, former federal prosecutor John Carlin reports from the front lines. In one unsettling account, he describes an official trip to China when he was a top adviser in Barack Obama’s Justice Department. Carlin returned to his hotel room to find that an intruder had examined his belongings, afterwards learning that someone had sent a near-flawless spear-phishing attempt to his boss, then-FBI Director Robert Mueller. Carlin’s in-depth, firsthand study is a useful wake-up call to anyone who boots up a computer or totes around a smartphone.
