Cyber War Survival Guide

All superpowers collapse eventually. What will cause America to crumble? Many people believe it will be an EMP attack, a major natural disaster, a terrorist attack, or an economic collapse. Any of those may happen, but one of the most overlooked and yet significant threats facing the United States today is the threat of a cyber-attack or all out cyberwarfare. The good news is that you can be prepared for a cyber-attack by learning about the basic steps you need to take right now. The United States of America is extremely vulnerable to cyber warfare. The reason why is because we are completely dependent on electronic information. Your entire life is tied directly to the cyber world. Just think if the following were to happen: -You can no longer access your money in the bank -Your entire savings and checking account gets wiped out -No more heat or running water being supplied to your home -You can no longer refuel your vehicle -The stock market collapses, creating a second Great Depression Each of these calamities and more are what can and will happen if a major cyber-attack ever occurs on the United States. America is also hugely unprepared for a cyber-attack. For those who do not own a generator, there will be no light, no refrigeration, no running water, and no sewage. Think about that. The devices that you rely on everyday will go dark. The banks will no longer function. Looting will envelop America. Law and order will be thrown out the window. Martial law may even be thrown out the window. In this book we are going to over five specific steps on how you can prepare yourself for cyberwarfare. The steps that we will cover are: 1.What is cyberwarfare? 2.How is cyberwarfare a threat to society and the United States? 3.How will cyberwarfare directly impact the life of the average everyday American? 4.Steps You Need To Take To Prepare For A Cyberattack 5.Steps You Need to Take During A Cyberattack By the end of this book, you will understand what a cyber-attack is, why it's a threat, how it affects you, and how you need to prepare for it.

There are many bad actors on the international stage capable of cyber terror on a massive scale. The list is long, including Russia, China, North Korea, Iran, Syria and now even terrorist groups like ISIS. Each is capable of wreaking havoc in the US by shutting down our power grid and enjoying the resulting chaos. No bombs. No bullets. No swordfights. Just a few keystrokes on the computer. And we're done. Cyber Warfare is a primer on the threats we face as a nation from the bad actors mentioned above. It explores the history of cyber attacks, and discusses the nuances of the terminology. The policies of the United States, and its allies, have evolved over the past decade. The problem of attribution is explored as cyber space allows hackers a convenient place to hide. The all important issue is raised: When does a cyber attack become an act of war?

NOW AN HBO® DOCUMENTARY FROM AWARD-WINNING DIRECTOR JOHN MAGGIO • “An important—and deeply sobering—new book about cyberwarfare” (Nicholas Kristof, New York Times), now updated with a new chapter. The Perfect Weapon is the startling inside story of how the rise of cyberweapons transformed geopolitics like nothing since the invention of the atomic bomb. Cheap to acquire, easy to deny, and usable for a variety of malicious purposes, cyber is now the weapon of choice for democracies, dictators, and terrorists. Two presidents—Bush and Obama—drew first blood with Operation Olympic Games, which used malicious code to blow up Iran’s nuclear centrifuges, and yet America proved remarkably unprepared when its own weapons were stolen from its arsenal and, during President Trump’s first year, turned back on the United States and its allies. And if Obama would begin his presidency by helping to launch the new era of cyberwar, he would end it struggling unsuccessfully to defend the 2016 U.S. election from interference by Russia, with Vladimir Putin drawing on the same playbook he used to destabilize Ukraine. Moving from the White House Situation Room to the dens of Chinese government hackers to the boardrooms of Silicon Valley, New York Times national security correspondent David Sanger reveals a world coming face-to-face with the perils of technological revolution, where everyone is a target. “Timely and bracing . . . With the deep knowledge and bright clarity that have long characterized his work, Sanger recounts the cunning and dangerous development of cyberspace into the global battlefield of the twenty-first century.”—Washington Post
