Cloud Computing, Cyber Security and Cyber Heist

I’ll be honest: this audiobook is a mixed bag, but its flaws are tied to its strengths. At just 53 minutes, *Cloud Computing, Cyber Security and Cyber Heist* doesn’t waste time—it barrels through topics like two-factor authentication, VPNs, and social engineering with the efficiency of a TED Talk on fast-forward. For someone who’s been procrastinating on cybersecurity (guilty), that’s refreshing. Alex Nkenchor Uwajeh’s writing style is direct, almost conversational, and he peppers the advice with cautionary tales that stick, like the small business that lost $50K to a fake vendor email. The problem? The pacing feels *too* aggressive. Just as you’re grasping a concept—say, how zero-trust architecture works—you’re yanked to the next threat vector. It’s less a “guide” and more a rapid-fire briefing. Annette Martin’s narration is professional but uneven. She handles the urgent tone well, but her delivery sometimes clashes with the material—like when she enunciates “malware” with the same emphasis as a product name in a commercial. The production quality is clean, though the lack of chapter breaks in this short runtime is a missed opportunity; even a 30-second pause between sections would’ve helped digest the info dump. My biggest critique? The 2.8-star rating starts to make sense when you realize this isn’t for beginners *or* experts. It’s for that narrow slice of listeners who already know the basics but need a jolt of motivation to act. If that’s you, the audiobook’s brevity is a feature, not a bug.
