Countdown to Zero Day by Kim Zetter

Top grade cyber thriller made all the more fascinating by being real. I'm not a techie at all but Zetter has a real gift of turning often complicated and detailed machine/code babble, into something easy and palatable for a reader like myself.It really is a great story and we get to see the full scope from its beginnings, inception, it's destructive phase and the aftermath. One of the things that was so awesome was the fact that this computer virus actually caused things to physically destroy themselves. It is also Scarey as hell when you consider the implications and how vulnerable we all actually are. In the wake of recent cyber attacks, it hits home even more so. Go git a copy.
