À propos de cet audio
"With 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, bestselling author of Twilight of Democracy
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: "[A] chilling account of a Kremlin-led cyberattack, a new front in global conflict" (Financial Times).
In 2014, the world witnessed the start of a mysterious series of cyberattacks. Targeting American utility companies, NATO, and electric grids in Eastern Europe, the strikes grew ever more brazen. They culminated in the summer of 2017, when the malware known as NotPetya was unleashed, penetrating, disrupting, and paralyzing some of the world's largest businesses—from drug manufacturers to software developers to shipping companies. At the attack's epicenter in Ukraine, ATMs froze. The railway and postal systems shut down. Hospitals went dark. NotPetya spread around the world, inflicting an unprecedented ten billion dollars in damage—the largest, most destructive cyberattack the world had ever seen.
The hackers behind these attacks are quickly gaining a reputation as the most dangerous team of cyberwarriors in history: a group known as Sandworm. Working in the service of Russia's military intelligence agency, they represent a persistent, highly skilled force, one whose talents are matched by their willingness to launch broad, unrestrained attacks on the most critical infrastructure of their adversaries. They target government and private sector, military and civilians alike.
A chilling, globe-spanning detective story, Sandworm considers the danger this force poses to our national security and stability. As the Kremlin's role in foreign government manipulation comes into greater focus, Sandworm exposes the realities not just of Russia's global digital offensive, but of an era where warfare ceases to be waged on the battlefield. It reveals how the lines between digital and physical conflict, between wartime and peacetime, have begun to blur—with world-shaking implications.
Ce que les critiques en disent
"Winner of the Cornelius Ryan Citation for Excellence from the Overseas Press Club of America
"Sandworm is a sobering examination of an underreported story: The menace Russian hackers pose to the critical infrastructure of the West. With 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

Wow
I couldn’t wait to listen to this and I wasn’t disappointed. Well written, insightful, scary, informative and an excellent reminder that we should never lose sight that technology is just a tool, it should not be what defines us or drives us.

Eye-opening but ear-shattering
Great book, very eye opening, and I feel like we're going to see a sequel to it, whether we like it or not. But the narrator really misses the mark with the voices. If you're going to try to do different voices in a documentary, at least try to watch the interviews to hear what they sound like. If the reader knows what the people mentioned actually sound like, the narrator doing them wrong really ruins the experience.

When the lights go out, is it the FSB troll farms?
This book starts with the lights going out in the Ukraine, and follows a number of international cybersecurity firms and personalities tracking the origins and damage of the Sandworm group, a Russian cyberintelligence group looking for ways to hack physical infrastructure rather than less damaging ransomware or stealing of secrets. Imagine a virus that can make a nuclear power plant overheat, a dam overflow, airport runway navigation altered, etc. Sandworm is still out there and it is not clear what physical damage is planned for the future. The book is well written and offers the average reader a clear understanding of the dangers of cyberwarfare when deployed to disrupt physical infrastructure in other countries.

Scary
This scared me. For myself, for the world, for the future.
Well written, almost sound like a far fetched fiction, except it’s not.
