About this audiobook

Hacking the Hacker takes you inside the world of cybersecurity to show you what goes on behind the scenes, and introduces you to the men and women on the front lines of this technological arms race. Twenty-six of the world's top white hat hackers, security researchers, writers, and leaders, describe what they do and why, with each profile preceded by a no-experience-necessary explanation of the relevant technology.

Cybersecurity is becoming increasingly critical at all levels, from retail businesses all the way up to national security. This book drives to the heart of the field, introducing the people and practices that help keep our world secure.

    Good info, but almost unable to listen to the book because they literally read out every hyperlink (and there are a bunch). It should be obvious people listing to an audiobook are busy with another task (e.g. driving, working, etc.) and aren’t going to benefit from hearing a bunch of URLs being read out. Who would need the link to a wiki article out of an audiobook? Really? So very annoying and constantly lose interest when they spend 3 minutes just reading off a bunch of URLs. Besides, links change too often. Just give the address to an online document with all the books links. There. Done.

    The book is designed for industry beginners to get basic overview. The content is good and I've learned some knowledge from it, although being only several months in InfoSec it was already pretty much a refresh. What is really annoying though is that there are too many spelled URLs instead of just mentioning easily googleable content. Pls just delete all the URLs and you'll save readers tens of minutes, maybe even an hour. Thanks.
