Click here to kill everybody : security and survival in a hyper-connected world (First edition)

We have created the ultimate hive-mind robot: an Internet of interconnected devices that senses, thinks and acts.

Bruce Schneier calls it the “World-Sized Web”. It includes everything from driverless cars to smart thermostats, from billboards that respond to specific people to drones equipped with their own behavioural algorithms.

While the World-Sized Web carries enormous potential, Schneier argues that we are unprepared for the vulnerabilities it brings.

Cutting-edge digital attackers can now crash your car, pacemaker and home security system and everyone else’s. Click Here to Kill Everybody explores the risks and security implications of the World-Sized Web and lays out common-sense policies that will allow us to enjoy the benefits of this new omnipotent age without surrendering ourselves entirely to our creation.
