"Over the past decade, there have been a series of internet-linked attacks on American interests, including North Korea's retaliatory hack of Sony Pictures, China's large-scale industrial espionage, Russia's 2016 propaganda campaign, and quite a lot more. The cyber war is upon us. Former Assistant Attorney General John Carlin has been on the frontlines of America's ongoing cyber war with its enemies. In this dramatic book, he tells the story of his years-long secret battle to keep America safe, and warns us of the perils that await us as we embrace the latest digital novelties -- smart appliances, artificial intelligence, self-driving cars -- with little regard for how our enemies might compromise them. The potential targets for our enemies are multiplying: our electrical grid, our companies, our information sources, our satellites. As each sector of the economy goes digital, a new vulnerability is exposed. The Internet of Broken Things is not merely a cautionary tale, though. It makes the urgent case that we need to start innovating more responsibly. As a fleet of web-connected cars and pacemakers rolls off the assembly lines, the potential for danger is overwhelming. We must see and correct these flaws before our enemies exploit them."--Procisws by publisher.… (mere)

This review is actually a review of two books: this one, and "An Army at Dawn" https://www.librarything.com/work/13178/book/81996115

Both are, in my view, about the logistics of information.

Be it WWII at beginning of the combat-readiness of the US Army and its logistics (the subject of "An Army at Dawn", about the WWII campaigns within the Northern Africa theatre), or the more recent Cyberwar readiness from the USA federal government, up to the 2016 elections (published in 2018, but with obvious confidentiality constraints on more recent material, cybersecurity investigations and policy are the subject of "Dawn of the Code War"), both books contain plenty of information about organizational readiness.

In both cases, it is not just a matter of materiel or financial resources, or even of one-off interventions, but of blending both the routine "lessons learned", spreading them, and keeping reinforcing the awareness of the new scenarios.

Both books let what happened to deliver the lessons, with the author underlining what readers can derive from reading through the storytelling.

Also, both books have interesting material- that could be used to derive "cameos", i.e. examples useful to carry the messages home.

As shown by the distribution of COVID-19 vaccines in late 2020 and early 2021, we still have to learn lessons about logistics that had been learned in 1942-1943, and also in cybersecurity, we are still letting the "technicality" of the subject trump (no pun intended) over the conceptual element.

Logistics of both physical and virtual resources is still logistics, and carries some characteristics: degrees of freedoms, identification of strengths and weaknesses, as well as identification of costs and benefits.

Doing a proper detailed review of both books would require few thousand words, but, in reality, the purpose of this review is to share few pointers, and share the impact of both books.

Actually, I first read "An Army at Dawn" over a decade ago, but decided to re-read it along with "Dawn of the Code War", as the parallels where interesting. ( )
