Book Description
For more than three hundred years, the world wrestled with conflicts that arose between nation-states. Nation-states wielded military force, financial pressure, and diplomatic persuasion to create "world order." Even after the end of the Cold War, the elements comprising world order remained essentially unchanged. But 2012 marked a transformation in geopolitics and the tactics of both the established powers and smaller entities looking to challenge the international community. That year, the US government revealed its involvement in Operation "Olympic Games," a mission aimed at disrupting the Iranian nuclear program through cyberattacks; Russia and China conducted massive cyber-espionage operations; and the world split over the governance of the Internet. Cyberspace became a battlefield. Cyber conflict is hard to track, often delivered by proxies, and has outcomes that are hard to gauge. It demands that the rules of engagement be completely reworked and all the old niceties of diplomacy be recast. Many of the critical resources of statecraft are now in the hands of the private sector, giant technology companies in particular. In this new world order, cybersecurity expert Adam Segal reveals, power has been well and truly hacked.

Book Description
Hacked Again details the ins and outs of cybersecurity expert and CEO of a top wireless security tech firm Scott Schober, as he struggles to understand: the motives and mayhem behind his being hacked. As a small business owner, family man and tech pundit, Scott finds himself leading a compromised life. By day, he runs a successful security company and reports on the latest cyber breaches in the hopes of offering solace and security tips to millions of viewers. But by night, Scott begins to realize his worst fears are only a hack away as he falls prey to an invisible enemy. When a mysterious hacker begins to steal thousands from his bank account, go through his trash and rake over his social media identity; Scott stands to lose everything he worked so hard for. But his precarious situation only fortifies Scott's position as a cybersecurity expert and also as a harbinger for the fragile security we all cherish in this digital life. Amidst the backdrop of major breaches such as Target and Sony, Scott shares tips and best practices for all consumers concerning email scams, password protection and social media overload: Most importantly, Scott shares his own story of being hacked repeatedly and bow he has come to realize that the only thing as important as his own cybersecurity is that of his readers and viewers. Part cautionary tale and part cyber self-help guide, Hacked Again probes deep into the dark web for truths and surfaces to offer best practices and share stories from an expert who has lived as both an enforcer and a victim in the world of cybersecurity.

The Hacker and the State

Languages : en
Pages : 433

Book Description
“A must-read...It reveals important truths.” —Vint Cerf, Internet pioneer “One of the finest books on information security published so far in this century—easily accessible, tightly argued, superbly well-sourced, intimidatingly perceptive.” —Thomas Rid, author of Active Measures Cyber attacks are less destructive than we thought they would be—but they are more pervasive, and much harder to prevent. With little fanfare and only occasional scrutiny, they target our banks, our tech and health systems, our democracy, and impact every aspect of our lives. Packed with insider information based on interviews with key players in defense and cyber security, declassified files, and forensic analysis of company reports, The Hacker and the State explores the real geopolitical competition of the digital age and reveals little-known details of how China, Russia, North Korea, Britain, and the United States hack one another in a relentless struggle for dominance. It moves deftly from underseas cable taps to underground nuclear sabotage, from blackouts and data breaches to election interference and billion-dollar heists. Ben Buchanan brings to life this continuous cycle of espionage and deception, attack and counterattack, destabilization and retaliation. Quietly, insidiously, cyber attacks have reshaped our national-security priorities and transformed spycraft and statecraft. The United States and its allies can no longer dominate the way they once did. From now on, the nation that hacks best will triumph. “A helpful reminder...of the sheer diligence and seriousness of purpose exhibited by the Russians in their mission.” —Jonathan Freedland, New York Review of Books “The best examination I have read of how increasingly dramatic developments in cyberspace are defining the ‘new normal’ of geopolitics in the digital age.” —General David Petraeus, former Director of the CIA “Fundamentally changes the way we think about cyber operations from ‘war’ to something of significant import that is not war—what Buchanan refers to as ‘real geopolitical competition.’” —Richard Harknett, former Scholar-in-Residence at United States Cyber Command

Democracy Hacked

ISBN: 1786074095
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 422

Book Description
Technology has fractured democracy, and now there’s no going back. All around the world, the fringes have stormed the palace of the elites and unleashed data miners, dark ads and bots on an unwitting public. After years of soundbites about connecting people, the social media giants are only just beginning to admit to the scale of the problem. We stand on the precipice of an era where switching your mobile platform will have more impact on your life than switching your government. Where freedom and privacy are seen as incompatible with social well-being and transparency. Where your attention is sold to the highest bidder. Our laws don’t cover what is happening and our politicians don’t understand it. But if we don’t fight to change the system now, we may not get another chance.

Great Powers and World Order

Author: Charles W. Kegley
Publisher: CQ Press
ISBN: 1544358741
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 308

Book Description
Great Powers and World Order encourages critical thinking about the nature of world order by presenting the historical information and theoretical concepts needed to make projections about the global future. Charles W. Kegley and Gregory Raymond ask students to compare retrospective cases and formulate their own hypotheses about not only the causes of war, but also the consequences of peace settlements. Historical case studies open a window to see what strategies for constructing world order were tried before, why one course of action was chosen over another, and how things turned out. By moving back and forth in each case study between history and theory, rather than treating them as separate topics, the authors hope to situate the assumptions, causal claims, and policy prescriptions of different schools of thought within the temporal domains in which they took root, giving the reader a better sense of why policy makers embraced a particular view of world order instead of an alternative vision.

Antitrust Laws The Case of Facebook v FTC TOMORROW’S WORLD ORDER’S PERSPECTIVE

Author: David Gomadza
Publisher: David Gomadza
ISBN:
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 111

Book Description
It is an unprecedented challenge to strike the correct balance between regulatory burden and trade facilitation that often result in either vicious cycles or virtuous cycles that determine whether corporations and Trusts will merge and grow bigger to take advantage of the often misunderstood and under-appreciated concept of economies of scale. The antitrust laws had been actively breaking down and enabling Rollback to sizes perceived as manageable and not threats to the governments, the FTC, and the interstates rather than to competition. This has been going on for the past seventy years or even more with little or no progress. We believe mankind is still in the defensive stage of development when we should be in networking and cooperation. Where we use advanced technology to share ideas and develop technologies that will take us out of this defensive stage. The question is this. Are the FTC, the interstate, and the governments doing the right thing in attacking these tech giants? Going after each one of them with a direct pre-planned goal. To interrogate, accuse, rip them off through fines then break them up into smaller sizes " to facilitate competition and provide a free market" at the same time creating value for the consumer?” Then Rollback all to sizes perceived as safe and not threats. Or it is time we all argue that these agencies use the Rule of Reason as we believe that not all corporations or antitrust are evil. Some are good and are the only ones to take us to the next stage of development. Is it not time to let these tech giants lead the way? Do you know that 70 % or more of the most powerful entities in the world are corporations and Trusts? Big enough with vast resources to turn things around for us. Is it not time to let these lead the way? Is it not also time for a new global legal framework? Surely the growth of these has surpassed those at the time the Sherman Act was enacted in 1890 when the Federal Trade Commission and the Department of Justice were tasked to deal with these. Is it not the time for a real global leader to act as a referee between these FTC, interstates, governments, and these corporations? I think it is time for Tomorrow's World Order to guide and act as the overseer. To lead mankind to the next stage of development. Surely, we can’t afford to waste any more time. The context in which these antitrust laws were enacted must be considered. We think it is not only a miscarriage of justice but grossly flawed and a criminal offence on the part of the Federal Trade Commission and its allies to consider that carrying out a SWOT analysis and acting on the results is an anti-competitive tactic. Remember they follow the legal corporations or company’s act. When this tactic is a legally approved method to deal with the issues of the lack of incentives to invest. The need to merge and gain economies of scale to overcome and conquer the vicious cycle and go to the virtuous stages. Corporations do what they do because this is the only way they can go to the next stage. A stage that will see them realise economies of scale and be able to offer the highest quality products at lower prices different from what the FTC and its allies are regarding as benefits. What can be beneficial to the consumers if the products are: okay cheaper. But of poor quality, as compared to what can be achieved? What do you call competition and variety when you refer to small-sized early entry companies most of whom only make a profit to remain in business without any to invest? That makes us ask. What are the real motives of these agencies? Are they milking these tech giants or planning to? Who are the real people or agencies harming the people? Are all these agencies clean or they are the worst competition blockers? Masters of poor service provisions and involved in human-hacking for stealing data secretly and using this to get illegal donations as they pass tips? We know tech giants breach privacy and personal data laws too.

The Virtual Weapon and International Order

ISBN: 0300220235

Languages : en
Pages : 333

Book Description
An urgently needed examination of the current cyber revolution that draws on case studies to develop conceptual frameworks for understanding its effects on international order The cyber revolution is the revolution of our time. The rapid expansion of cyberspace in society brings both promise and peril. It promotes new modes of political cooperation, but it also disrupts interstate dealings and empowers subversive actors who may instigate diplomatic and military crises. Despite significant experience with cyber incidents, the conceptual apparatus to analyze, understand, and address their effects on international order remains primitive. Here, Lucas Kello adapts and applies international relations theory to create new ways of thinking about cyber strategy. Kello draws on a broad range of case studies - including the Stuxnet operation against Iran, the cyberattacks against Sony Pictures, and the disruption of the 2016 U.S. presidential election - to make sense of the contemporary technological revolution. Synthesizing data from government documents, forensic reports of major events, and interviews with senior decision-makers, this important work establishes new theoretical benchmarks to help security experts revise strategy and policy for the unprecedented challenges of our era.
