I can fully recommend reading the book "Sandworm" by Andy Greenberg. It explains NotPetya and all of the sorrounding investigation.

- retortio 6y agoIn the same genre, I recommend "Countdown to Zero Day" which looks at Stuxnet and Flame and the events surrounding their creation, deployment and aftermath.
- secfirstmd 6y agoI'm a big fan of Countdown to Zero Day. I've recommended it to a lot of non-techie friends as it's a great blend of pacey thriller with just enough information to help a non-techie understand some basic elements of a sophisticated malware campaign.
- bitexploder 6y agoJust an aside, I have met Kim a few times at various conferences. She is an interesting person, in a good way. She came to the book as an infosec neophyte. We talked about her process as something of a technologist outsider and how she decided what to focus on. Ultimately, she decided the storytelling was far more important than the technical details, though she felt those were incredibly important as well.
- armSixtyFour 6y agoFantastic book! I only wish there were more in depth books like this. I've read Countdown to zero day as well almost immediately afterwards and was similarly engaged.
- trollied 6y agoThere's also a really good Darknet Diaries podcast episode on NotPetya: https://darknetdiaries.com/episode/54/ https://darknetdiaries.com/episode/54/ It's a brilliant podcast - there's some very interesting stories and interviews, my favourite recent one being The Courthouse: https://darknetdiaries.com/episode/59/ https://darknetdiaries.com/episode/59/
- eggsome 6y agoDarknet Diaries is moderately engaging - but overly dramatic. They also dumb things down a bit (I assume to attract a wider audience?). I still find myself listening occasionally, so it's hard to criticize too much.
