Professor Ross Anderson is a SME on cyber and security engineering @ Cambridge University and is writing a new book. One chapter is an examination of the cyber sphere post-Snowden revelations; it is 32 pgs. and is free to view. The author invites comments and explains his purpose here:
Today I put online a chapter on Who is the Opponent (https://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~rja14/Papers/SEv3-ch2-May16.pdf), which draws together what we learned from Snowden and others about the capabilities of state actors, together with what we’ve learned about cybercrime actors as a result of running the Cambridge Cybercrime Centre. Isn’t it odd that almost six years after Snowden, nobody’s tried to pull together what we learned into a coherent summary?
