Operation Sandworm by Andy Greenberg

The true story of the most devastating act of cyberwarfare in history and the desperate hunt to identify and track the elite Russian agents behind it.
Sandworm is a sobering examination of an underreported story: The menace Russian hackers pose to the critical infrastructure of the WestWith the nuance of a reporter and the pace of a thriller writer, Andy Greenberg gives us a glimpse of the cyberwars of the future while at the same time placing his story in the long arc of Russian and Ukrainian history. * Anne Applebaum, Pulitzer Prize–winning author of Gulag and Red Famine *
An important front-line view of the changing cyberthreats that are shaping our world, their creators, and the professionals who try to protect us. * Nature *
As Russia has attacked, Greenberg has not been far behind, reporting on these incursions in Wired while searching for their perpetrators. Like the best true-crime writing, his narrative is both perversely entertaining and terrifying. * New York Review of Books *
Immensely readable...A hair-raising, cautionary tale about the burgeoning, post-Stuxnet world of state-sponsored hackers...Greenberg lays out in chilling detail how future wars will be waged in cyberspace and makes the case that we have done little, as of yet, to prevent it. * Washington Post *
A chilling account of a Kremlin-led cyber attack, a new front in global conflict. * Financial Times *
Shocking...The book reads like a novel. * Washington Independent Review of Books *
Andy Greenberg's Sandworm has achieved what I thought was no longer possible: it scares me. Sandworm is the story of the Russian GRU hacking team that has evolved in a few short years into the most methodical, persistent, and destructive intelligence agency cyber warriors. After reading Sandworm you will not doubt those superlatives. * Forbes *
A terrifying and infuriating look at a future in which cyberwar hawks and cyberwar deniers join forces to literally threaten our ability to continue civilization. Sandworm shows how, in our leaders' focus on maintaining digital weapons to attack our enemies, they've left our own critical infrastructure defenseless. * Cory Doctorow, New York Times bestselling author of Little Brother and Radicalized *
