Chasing Shadows (Simon & Schuster)
Friday, 28 February 2025

In this book, subtitled "Cyber Espionage, Subversion, and the Global Fight for Democracy", cyber security expert Ronald Deibert details the unseemly marketplace for high-tech surveillance, professional disinformation, and computerized malfeasance. He reveals how his team of digital sleuths at the Citizen Lab have lifted the lid on dozens of covert operations targeting innocent citizens everywhere. Deibert recounts how the Lab exposed the world’s pre-eminent cyber-mercenary firm, NSO Group—the creators of the phone-hacking marvel Pegasus—in a series of human rights abuses.
