In this month’s #ProtonPrivacyReadingList we recommend “If It's Smart, It's Vulnerable” by #infosec expert Mikko Hypponen.

The book includes:
📚 an overview of how the Internet became what it is
🌏 discussions on the legal and geopolitical aspects of #cybersecurity
🛑 a comprehensive overview of the multitudes of threats lurking on the web

And it’s all peppered with real-life stories from Hypponen’s 3-decade-long career: https://www.ifitssmartitsvulnerable.com/
