Sinopsis

Board-level executives are known as ’whales' amongst hackers. That's because they're the big fish who hold the keys to the really big prizes; money, intellectual property, and corporate governance. Jim Baines, CEO of a major US packaging company, didn't know he was a ’whale' until someone hacked his email and got into the heart of his company. ’Whaling for Beginners' follows Jim's journey as he realises just how close to home cyber-attacks can strike and how broad the hackers' ambitions are. As his company's very survival hangs in the balance, it emerges that the ultimate target of the whaling attack is the CFO of his biggest client - and one of his oldest friends. Out of nowhere, hard-won reputations, hundreds of jobs and millions of dollars are all suddenly at risk..

Críticas

The Whaling for Beginners saga is a compelling insight into the human impact of a cyber-attack on a CEO of a successful business. Whaling for Beginners: Reputations is book 2 in the series. The story is well researched and written and I would recommend it as essential reading for all board directors. As a Senior Independent NED and Deputy Chairman I know how important it is for business leaders to understand that they re not immune and that they understand how to respond effectively in a crisis. I have sent copies of the book to all my fellow directors on five different boards. --Ian Davies, Deputy Chairman of BMT Group and Senior Independent Director at the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales (ICAEW) and Harvey Nash.

Knowing my background in cyber security and IT risk, I was recently given Whaling for Beginners (books 1 and 2) by a close friend who wanted my view of its plausibility. In a world of cyber techno jargon often presented without relevant context to board members and senior management, the story line is not only plausible but actually fun to follow, though somewhat chilling, like a good mystery. It helps the reader realise in a very relatable way that none of us are immune to being directly targeted by a cyber-attack in fact those of us who sit in boardrooms can often be the most vulnerable. If you re a board director or executive decision maker in any organization, I would encourage you to have a look. The lead character in these very short books, Jim Baines, the CEO of a major US packaging company quickly realises how quickly a simple attack can turn into a nightmare. A reputation and financial stability built up over 30 years is suddenly at risk for an inadvertent and seemingly innocent action. Whaling for Beginners is a cautionary and thought-provoking tale for us all. --Jan Babiak
