Description

A hospital's screens go dark. A pipeline stops and a coastline runs dry. A bank, a phone, a password nobody thought about — and then the people who trace it back. Persist Cyber Defenders tells the true stories behind the breaches that made the news, from the first quiet mistake to the defenders who fought to contain it. No technical background needed — just follow the story. If you're thinking about a career in security, this is the way in.
