In 2014, the world witnessed the start of a mysterious series of cyberattacks. Targeting American utility companies, NATO, and electric grids in Eastern Europe, the strikes grew ever more brazen. They culminated in the summer of 2017, when the malware known as NotPetya was unleashed, penetrating, disrupting, and paralyzing some of the world's largest businesses—from drug manufacturers to software developers to shipping companies. At the attack's epicenter in Ukraine, ATMs froze. The railway and postal systems shut down. Hospitals went dark. NotPetya spread around the world, inflicting an unprecedented ten billion dollars in damage—the largest, most destructive cyberattack the world had ever seen. The hackers behind these attacks are quickly gaining a reputation as the most dangerous team of cyberwarriors in history: a group known as Sandworm. Working in the service of Russia's military intelligence agency, they represent a persistent, highly skilled force, one whose talents are matched by their willingness to launch broad, unrestrained attacks on the most critical infrastructure of their adversaries. They target government and private sector, military and civilians alike. A chilling, globe-spanning detective story, Sandworm considers the danger this force poses to our national security and stability. As the Kremlin's role in foreign government manipulation comes into greater focus, Sandworm exposes the realities not just of Russia's global digital offensive, but of an era where warfare ceases to be waged on the battlefield. It reveals how the lines between digital and physical conflict, between wartime and peacetime, have begun to blur—with world-shaking implications. Review: Great Narrative Structure for Russia's Cyber-Military Unit 74455 - Sandworm by Andy Greenberg sounds like some mythical creature from some Science-Fiction novel, and in fact, it is. Sandworm is the name of a Russian super-hacker team (supposedly, the cyber military Unit 74455 in Russia's GRU) which wreaked havoc in Ukraine in 2015 and 2017, interfered in the French presidential election in 2017, and unleashed a cyberattack on the 2018 Winter Olympics opening ceremony. But Sandworm is also a mythical creature from Frank Herbert's 1965 science fiction novel Dune. Through Andy Greenberg's amazing narrative in the book Sandworm we are put on the trail of this team of Russian cyber military super-hackers. Greenberg details the cyber military team's exploits throughout their short history as well as the Malware experts who are chasing every lead in order to understand the group's motives and next targets. It is through Greenberg's narrative where we see the pieces fall together in understanding what and who Sandworm really is. One key part is where INSight's technical analyst Drew Robinson begins to find references to Dune in the malware used by the cyber military group. This is where the name Sandworm comes from. What I liked about Andy Greenberg's Sandworm: - the book lays out the history and investigative trail of the Russian super-hacker group in a well-formed narrative instead of a boring objective, analytical essay - the book provides a lot of genuine context surrounding the group and where their motives may lie - the book provides technical details where you can actually understand how the group did what they did, rather than relying on simple metaphors like 'logic bombs' - the book details the group's evolution from using simple malware in order to disrupt Ukraine's electrical grid in 2015 to them utilising multiple zero-days and NSA tools in order to cause worldwide havoc in the 2017 NotPetya Ransomware Outbreak. What I didn't like about Andy Greenberg's Sandworm: - In some parts, the book went on a few different tangents that increase the word count unnecessarily - There was no strong conclusion but instead a lot of mysteries still to be dealt with Overall: 5 out of 5 stars Recommendations: - I would recommend it to people more interested in cyberwar and its evolution in the Russian and Ukrainian context - The narrative structure of the book was well written which made the less interesting parts of cyberwar more exciting and more enjoyable to read Full book review at flyintobooks.com Review: Great read - Great read about recent worms, read the book for the history, not if you look for indepth technical knowledge. Pages went like icecream during a sunny summerday! ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #59,858 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #6 in Russian & Soviet Politics #10 in Espionage True Accounts #25 in Historical Russia Biographies | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 3,235 Reviews | ## Images ![Sandworm: A New Era of Cyberwar and the Hunt for the Kremlin's Most Dangerous Hackers - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81jtF7Q8jKL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Narrative Structure for Russia's Cyber-Military Unit 74455 *by A***N on August 8, 2021* Sandworm by Andy Greenberg sounds like some mythical creature from some Science-Fiction novel, and in fact, it is.

Pages went like icecream during a sunny summerday! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ A must read for anyone concerned with risk management in their personal and professional lives *by S***H on November 13, 2024* This book is full of detailed stories about hacking software that few people know about, understand or grasp the mind bending possibilities for harm that they present. It's a disturbing tale but a criticaly important one. My only issue is that he belabors the tracking of Sandworm way too much, and some of the nasty malware attacks that he documents start to to feel like deja vu all over again. But I'm glad (in a peverse way) that I read it. The future looks darker, however, with this knowledge. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.jp/products/146506374-sandworm-a-new-era-of-cyberwar-and-the-hunt-kremlins](https://www.desertcart.jp/products/146506374-sandworm-a-new-era-of-cyberwar-and-the-hunt-kremlins) --- *Product available on Desertcart Japan* *Store origin: JP* *Last updated: 2026-10-21*
