Do you have elderly or young relatives who use the Internet? Do you need a clear, nontechnical, small (200 pages) book to explain basic cybersecurity? If so, this is for you. Written for a general audience, with end-of-chapter references for the more technically and detail minded, readers will be pleased to place this excellent presentation on their bookshelves. This book assesses very practical cyber-threats, such as baby monitors being hacked. Do you understand ran-somware, data bombs, and Trojan horses? What professional services are available to address cyber-bullying? What is identity theft? What current computer security services are available? The eight chapters draw the reader from topic to topic. What is at stake? Where can one go for assistance? Is anyone looking out for you? What are ten key things to protect? The book also covers the following topics: "cybersecurity for smart phones, mobile apps, and the cloud"; protecting vital cyber infrastructure; Who will control the future: black hat hackers or the hacked?; and "ten essential rules for your cyber-defense." All of these and more very significant topics are presented in an interesting and very readable format.
