Sessions
"Janusz turned around and froze, terrified. The bank was sliding. An avalanche of sand and gravel rushed down the steep slope. The air was filled with dust, then a flow of dirty, foamy water gushed out. He saw it breaking trees, tearing out power poles, pulling boulders along. It was the last thing Janusz Murawiec ever saw.”
This is a fragment of a crime fiction book by Jakub Szamalek “The Hidden Web”, which gained success among Polish readers. The author says “It’s not science fiction” in the preface to the book. And though the plot is fictitious, the cybercrimes described are pretty close to reality.
So, what makes such a good basis in Poland for the book to appear? What is the cyber threat landscape? What were the biggest hacks and incidents recently? Why does the biggest cybersecurity community in Poland have more than 135K followers? Let’s take a look at Poland together with Andriy Varusha, CISSP, an information security expert, co-founder, and CSO at BSG, who’s been living in Krakow for the last 6 years.
