About the Book

The Invisible Threat

The Threat:
If we don’t do anything to understand and curb the effects of the Dark Web, then we might as well pledge allegiance to its nefariousness.  
The Solution:

The Invisible Threat will appeal to every person curious or frightened by the prospect of a cyberattack, from students and retirees to the C-Suite and boardroom. My readers will take up arms in the current cyber war instead of fleeing while the village burns. They will become email archeologists and threat hunters, questioning every movement online and spotting the attackers hiding in every shadow. They will learn how to embed cybersecurity intrinsically into the culture and technology of their businesses and lives. Only then can we begin to move the needle toward a world safe from cyber-attacks.
