Résumé

The first book to define the clear and present danger posed by a cyber-terrorist attack on the U.S. computerand network-dependent infrastructure

As part of the homeland security initiative, the White House has declared cyber-terrorism prevention a top priority bringing it into the headlines and the minds of the American public. Written by a former U.S. intelligence officer, this insightful work investigates how cyber-terrorism could occur, what the global and financial implications are, the impact this is having and will continue to have on privacy and civil liberties, and how to prepare for and prevent cyber-terrorism.

Members of al-Qaeda
Condoleezza Rice
Tom Ridge
Rudy Giuliani
