The Hacker and the State: Cyber Attacks and the New Normal of Geopolitics

The Hacker and the State is a groundbreaking book that delves into the real geopolitical competition of the digital age.

With little-known details from interviews, declassified files, and forensic analysis, this book reveals how China, Russia, North Korea, Britain, and the United States hack one another in a relentless struggle for dominance.

The author, Ben Buchanan, brings to life the continuous cycle of espionage and deception, attack and counterattack, destabilization and retaliation.

He explains why cyber attacks are far less destructive than we anticipated but much harder to prevent, impacting our banks, tech systems, health systems, democracy, and every aspect of our lives.

The United States and its allies can no longer dominate the way they once did, and the nation that hacks best will triumph.

This book is a must-read for anyone interested in understanding the realities of cyber warfare and how it's changing the game of geopolitics.
