Cyber Intelligence: Actors, Policies, and Practices

By Constance Uthoff

US national security compromised by Wikileaks. Towns held hostage by ransomware. Corporate websites hacked. Cyber espionage and cybercrimes are increasing in both frequency and sophistication - requiring the collection of actionable intelligence in order to combat them. Constance Uthoff provides a comprehensive overview of cyber intelligence, explaining what it is, why it is needed, who is doing it, and how it is done. Notably, Cyber Intelligence: Outlines the roles of the major US intelligence agencies involved. Assesses significant laws and policies from the 1990s to the present. Compares methods and best practices across the public and private sectors. Looks beyond the US to explore the capabilities of actors like China, Iran, and Russia. Includes real-world examples and case studies. The result is an in-depth examination of the processes and applications of spying in cyberspace, accessible to a wide range of readers.
