Cyber Insecurity

Description:

Cyber Insecurity is a novel that follows the lives of its two main characters, Janie and Dave, as they negotiate the world of online criminals and undeclared cyber warfare between nation states. The book is based on real people, places, devices, and events, from a collision between Russian and American nuclear submarines, to North Korea's testing of Hydrogen bombs and Inter-Continental Ballistic Missiles. You are taken on a tour through the murky world of Malware, Bots, Viruses, Ransomware, Cyber Security, and Spying, as Cyber crooks steal identities, hack Government web sites, and wreck trains. And that's just scratching the surface. The story of the contemporary American political scene is told, where interference by Russia in the Presidential election puts a crooked businessman in the White House. Then the new President fires the FBI Director who is conducting an investigation into Russian influence. And just as in the real world, it's up to you to decide which parts of the story are factual and what's fictional.
