Maggiori informazioni sul libro
Michael Lewis' work exposed the ruthless nature of high-frequency trading, but Mark Russinovich takes it further, illustrating how this dominance in finance leaves the stock market vulnerable to hackers. Cybersecurity expert Jeff Aiken understands that no system is entirely secure. When he investigates a potential breach at the New York Stock Exchange, he uncovers an alarming reality: the system has been compromised, and insiders are aware but have allowed hackers to steal millions without intervention. As Jeff reveals the crime, the NYSE turns against him, accusing him of grand larceny. He must expose the criminals not only to clear his name but to prevent a multibillion-dollar heist that threatens the U.S. economy. Ignoring his warnings, the NYSE plans to proceed with a major IPO using a new, untested system vulnerable to both hackers and aggressive high-frequency traders. Determined to uncover the truth, Jeff follows the trail to the dangerous streets of Rio de Janeiro, confronting one of the world's most ruthless cartels. Blending real-world technology with fast-paced action, Russinovich delivers a gripping thriller about a cyber threat that feels alarmingly plausible, alongside the Wall Street traders who may facilitate such a disaster.
