If It's Smart, It's Vulnerable

Reimagine the future of the internet

All our devices and gadgets-from our refrigerators to our home security systems, vacuum cleaners, and stereos-are going online, just like our computers did. But once we-ve successfully connected our devices to the internet, do we have any hope of keeping them, and ourselves, safe from the dangers that lurk beneath the digital waters?

In If It-s Smart, It-s Vulnerable, veteran cybersecurity professional Mikko Hypponen delivers an eye-opening exploration of the best-and worst-things the internet has given us. From instant connectivity between any two points on the globe to organized ransomware gangs, the net truly has been a mixed blessing. In this book, the author explores the transformative potential of the future of the internet, as well as those things that threaten its continued existence: government surveillance, censorship, organized crime, and more.
