The Cybersecurity Chronicles

    ‘The Cybersecurity Chronicles: 2024‘ pulls back the curtain on the digital threats that shaped our world last year, revealing the human stories behind the headlines. From art galleries frozen by ransomware to prison tablets hacked with a minus sign, from British Library archivists racing to protect centuries of knowledge to Spotify users meticulously curating their digital identities – these stories illuminate how cybersecurity touches every aspect of modern life.

    Author Mark Nole weaves together intimate portraits of the people on all sides of the digital battlefield: the defenders working through sleepless nights to protect critical infrastructure, the victims grappling with stolen identities and lost savings, and even the attackers themselves, operating from nondescript offices with project management software and performance metrics.

    Through detailed reporting and narrative storytelling, Nole reveals how 2024 became the year when cybersecurity stopped being just a technical problem and emerged as a fundamentally human challenge. Whether you’re a security professional or simply someone trying to understand our increasingly digital world, these chronicles offer an unprecedented look at how technology shapes – and sometimes betrays – our trust, our privacy, and our lives.
