Synopsis

“How Real is Real?” Paul Watzlawich asked himself in a famous book. After reading the first part of this book, you will surely ask yourself, “How real is fiction?” And after reading the second part, you will probably end up wondering whether real life could be more threatening and complex than a thriller about cyber security. A book written by two CIOs (Chief Information Officers): a novel about the breath-taking fight of Tommaso, Ned, Martin, Myriam and Diana against a destructive cyber-attack menacing the lives of thousands of patients, intertwined with real life experiences about building and managing healthcare information systems. A plot which takes place in the evocative scenarios of Rome, Florence, Malta, Canada and Odessa. As entertaining as a novel, as real as real life can be: a way to enter the world of information technology and to approach some of the big themes about security threats, IT governance, IT architectures, cloud computing and IT risks. A note of caution: the book is for many but not for all. We strongly suggest it should be read only by anyone who happens to be a technology or an Internet user. Moreover, the book should be read and used as a call to action only by CEOs and top executives who by chance use information technologies in their companies.
