Jeffery Carr's tell-all book was an interesting analysis into the current threat that the government and businesses face from the rise in using cyberspace as the new grounds for warfare. Originally I picked up the book thinking that this particular selection would help me in securing my network and/or maybe more of what the existing threats are within the Enterprise.

This book took me quite a while to finish it up but I do remember that many of the concepts reminded me of how the entire Wikileaks and anonymous cyber war played out. I would say though that this book is probably the most detailed and best written book on the topic that I have came across. So I would, and have, recommended the book to several others that are more interested in cyber-terrorism and how the governments of today are using worms and Denial of Service attacks as their weapons.
