Countdown to Zero Day

Countdown to Zero Day explores the world of cyber warfare and tells the gripping story of the Stuxnet virus that sabotaged Iran’s nuclear efforts. Author Kim Zetter shows how a digital attack can be as destructive as a nuclear bomb and how vulnerable our critical systems are to similar attacks from nation-state adversaries and anonymous hackers. This eye-opening book also takes readers inside the flourishing zero-day “grey markets,” where intelligence agencies and militaries pay huge sums for the malicious code they need to carry out infiltrations and attacks. A comprehensive and prescient read for anyone interested in technology and security.
