In some parts, the book went on a few different tangents that increase the word count unnecessarily grāmata ir kā The Matrix sarkanā tablete, pēc kuras apēšanas redzi, ka mūsdienu pasaules digitālais ietvars ir daudz trauslāks, nekā mēs naivi un uzticīgi esam iedomājušies. a b c d e f Romain, Lindsey (May 21, 2020).

A sandworm is a fictional extraterrestrial creature that appears in the Dune novels written by Frank Herbert, first introduced in Dune (1965). Told with the fast-paced style of a thriller, this book is highly recommended for all fans of international intrigue and cyberwarfare. An exceptional account.”

I like the way the author discusses the people he met and interviewed, giving us insight into who they are and how the dealt with the cyberwarfare in the countries. He had to use interpreters at times for Russian, Ukrainian and Korean. He did lots of research, and not just at his computer desk. a b c Bui, Hoai-Tran (May 19, 2020).

Less than two months after iSight had found its first fingerprints, Hultquist’s idea of Sandworm had shifted yet again. “This was a foreign actor who had access to zero days making a deliberate attempt on our critical infrastructure,” Hultquist said. “We’d detected a group on the other side of the world carrying out espionage. We’d pored over its artifacts. And we’d found it was a threat to the United States.” Just a few months ago, a Netherlands researcher wanted to come to the U.S. to present a paper on the vulnerability of the industrial control system. There are almost 30,000 of these devices (programmable logic controllers) that control everything from wastewater plants to the electrical grid. The researcher, thanks to America's arcane and silly visa system, was not admitted and so unable to present these important findings. Fortunately he was able to post them to his blog. Whether that resulted in a wider dissemination of the information than had he delivered his talk is academic, perhaps. ** The narrative structure of the book was well written which made the less interesting parts of cyberwar more exciting and more enjoyable to read

Fremen also use the sharp teeth of dead sandworms to produce the sacred knives they call crysknives. Approximately 20 centimetres (7.9in) long, these hand-to-hand weapons are either "fixed" or "unfixed". An unfixed knife requires proximity to a human body's electrical field to prevent its eventual disintegration, while fixed knives are treated for storage. [22] Fremen tradition dictates that once a crysknife is drawn, it must not be sheathed until it has drawn blood.

It [the sandworm] appeared to be more than half a league long, and the rise of the sandwave at its cresting head was like the approach of a mountain.I would recommend it to people more interested in cyberwar and its evolution in the Russian and Ukrainian context Sandworm is much more than a true-life techno-thriller. It’s a tour through a realm that is both invisible and critical to the daily lives of every person alive in the 21st century.”
