More about the book
"Summer 2017: computer screens go blank in 150 countries. Ambulances are grounded. Computers turn on spontaneously and warnings appear. Restarting is pointless; the computers are locked. And now the attackers ask each victim for money. This is destructive software--just one example of how vulnerable the digital world has made us. Based on the cases he investigated over a period of six years, award-winning journalist Huib Modderkolk takes the reader on a tour of the corridors and back doors of the globalised digital world. Revealing how the power relationships between countries enable intelligence services to share and withhold data from each other, [this book] opens our eyes to the dark underbelly of the digital world."--Back cover
