How Cybersecurity Really Works by Sam Grubb
Cybersecurity for Beginners is an engaging, informal introduction to the field of cybersecurity. Readers learn how attackers operate, as well as how to defend individuals and organisations against online attacks. An accessible introduction to the field of cybersecurity, requiring no prior technical knowledge. Readers learn how 'black hat' (criminal) hackers select targets, trick victims into divulging private information, deploy malware, steal passwords, steal data, pirate WiFi, and escape detection. Readers also learn strategies for defending against online attacks.
