I strongly recommend Security Engineering: A Guide to Building Dependable Distributed Systems by Ross Anderson.  Very good reading.

 

Also, Click Here to Kill Everybody by Bruce Schneier.

 

And for pleasure, Meditations by Marcus Aurelius.

I just finished Code Warriors: NSA's Codebreakers and the Secret Intelligence War Against the Soviet Union by Stephen Budiansky: https://www.amazon.ca/Code-Warriors-Codebreakers-Intelligence-Against/dp/0385352662.

 

It focuses on NSA during the Cold War, from the end of World War II to the dissolution of the Soviet Union. There's a bit of cryptography, but it's mostly about the politics and jostling for prestige and power. If you've ever worked with or for a cryptologic agency, I expect the culture and the topics will feel familiar.

I just finished "This is How They Tell Me The World Ends" by Nicole Perlroth, and I'm currently reading "Sandworm" by Andy Greenberg.  The latter spoke at Security Congress two years ago, and the former at last year's show.
