Description


Unfortunately, the prospect of evil forces unleashing an all out cyber-terrorism attack on the civilized world is no longer just a bad dream. There are now forces at work with the motive and the means to cripple the Internet, arguably, all they need now is the opportunity. This work of fiction is written by some of the leading security and counter-terrorism experts in the world today, and it outlines a plot to “own the box” on a truly global scale by compromising an entire continent’s network infrastructure. The authors bring to life a scary cast of characters and set them on a course of imminent cyber-attack, shedding light on some of the most lethal hacks yet imagined. In-the-know readers will recognize the technologies, scenarios, and threatened intrusions. The first book in the “Stealing the Network” series was called a “blockbuster” by Wired magazine, a “refreshing change from more traditional computer books” by Slashdot.org, and “an entertaining and informative look at the weapons and tactics employed by those who attack and defend digital systems” by Amazon.com. This follow-on book once again combines a set of fictional stories with real technology to show readers the danger that lurks in the shadows of the information security industry… Could hackers take over a continent?

The first book in this series Stealing the Network: How to Own the Box created a new genre of �Cyber-Thrillers,� that told fictional stories about individual hackers using real technologies.

This second book in the series Stealing the Network: How to Own a Continent (or STC for short) introduces the concept of hacker groups, and the damage they can inflict through a concerted, orchestrated string of malicious attacks. The �Stealing� books are unique in both the fiction and computer book categories. They combine accounts that are fictional with technology that is very real. While none of these specific events have happened, there is no reason why they could not.

You could argue it provides a roadmap for criminal hackers, but I say it does something else: It provides a glimpse into the creative minds of some of today�s best hackers, and even the best hackers will tell you that the game is a mental one. The phrase �Root is a state of mind,� coined by K0resh and printed on shirts from DEF CON, sums this up nicely. While you may have the skills, if you lack the mental fortitude, you will never reach the top. This is what separates the truly elite hackers from the wannabe hackers.
