Kim Zetter
Investigative Journalist and Author
Kim Zetter is an award-winning investigative journalist and author. Kim has been covering computing security and the hacking underground since 1999, first for 'PC World' magazine and currently with 'Wired', where she is a senior staff writer. She has been repeatedly voted one of the Top 10 security journalists in the nation by her peers and security industry professionals.
In 2006 she broke a story about a secret NSA room at an AT&T facility in Missouri that was believed to be siphoning Internet data from the telecom’s network operations center. In 2007 she wrote a groundbreaking three-part story for Wired on the cybercriminal underground. In 2011 she wrote a lengthy feature about the Stuxnet worm and recently completed a book on the topic - Countdown to Zero Day: Stuxnet and the Launch of the World's First Digital Weapon - which details the sophisticated digital weapon launched by the U.S. and Israel to sabotage Iran’s uranium enrichment program. Stuxnet was the first piece of malware ever discovered that was designed to cause physical destruction, rather than simply steal data. (Published by Crown/Random House, November 2014)
