There is a series you might be interested in: Stealing the Network. One of the
books in the series was added to the collection yesterday: Sealing the Network:
How To Own the Box. It's a collection of short stories about hacking based on
true technology.
I see that when one clicks on the title one only sees the long synopsis. Where
does the short synopsis show up? Is that only available to members?
