Breach

A journalist accused of hacking the inbox of a billionaire

A company which fought back when its data was stolen

An entrepreneur who fought an international battle to end piracy

A hacker who decided to take a start-up hostage by stealing its data

Full of riveting stories of hackers, police and corporates, Breach reads like a thriller. The book brings to light several incidents which till now were brushed under the carpet. It has instances of piracy, data theft, phishing, among many others.

Even though he focuses on India, Nirmal John takes great pains to show links between underground international networks working to undermine data security.
