Top Ten Books Policymakers Should Read on Cyber Security
I've been meeting with policymakers of all ages and levels of responsibility during the last few months. Frequently they ask "what can I read to better understand cyber security?" I decided to answer them collectively in this quick blog post.
By posting these, I am not endorsing everything they say (with the exception of the last book). On balance, however, I think they provide a great introduction to current topics in digital security.
Enjoy!
