The Perfect Weapon
From Russia’s tampering with the US election to the WannaCry hack that temporarily crippled Britain’s NHS, cyber has become the weapon of choice for democracies, dictators, and terrorists. Cheap to acquire, easily deniable, and used for a variety of malicious purposes — from crippling infrastructure to sowing discord and doubt — cyberweapons are re-writing the rules of warfare. In less than a decade, they have displaced terrorism and nuclear missiles as the biggest immediate threat to international security and to democracy. Here, New York Times correspondent David E. Sanger takes us from the White House Situation Room to the dens of Chinese government hackers and the boardrooms of Silicon Valley, piecing together a remarkable picture of a world now coming face-to-face with the most sophisticated — and arguably most dangerous — weapon ever invented. The Perfect Weapon is the dramatic story of a new era of constant sabotage, misinformation, and fear, in which everyone is a target.

Summary of David E. Sanger's The Perfect Weapon
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 In 2012, I met with Michael Morell, the deputy director of the CIA, to discuss a sensitive story the Times was preparing to publish. I knew that the meeting would be difficult, as the US government was not yet ready to discuss the consequences of its decision to use cyberweapons against another state in peacetime. #2 I had come to hear about which details of the Olympic Games story concerned Morell and his colleagues, and they were preparing to ask the Times to withhold them, lest we tip off other targets of ongoing operations. #3 The Obama administration was extremely secretive about its use of cyberw...

Integrating discussions of media, law, surveillance, technology, and national security, the book offers a timely and much-needed assessment of the promises and per...
