Kim Zetter is an investigative journalist and book author who has covered cybersecurity and national security for more than 15 years. She was a staff reporter for WIRED for thirteen years and is currently an independent journalist, writing for WIRED, New York Times Magazine, Politico, the Washington Post, and others. Security professionals and her journalism peers have repeatedly voted her one of the top ten security journalists in the U.S.
Zetter has broken numerous national stories over the years about NSA and FBI surveillance, election security, cybercrime, and cyberwarfare. She wrote a ground-breaking three-part series on the hacking and carding underground in 2007, which provided an inside look for the first time at online criminal forums through the eyes of a grifter who ran a forum undercover for the FBI. She broke the story about the arrest of Army intelligence analyst Chelsea Manning for stealing millions of government documents and providing them to WikiLeak. She broke a national story about Russia's sabotage of Ukraine's power grid and its use of that country as a testing ground for cyberattacks to be used around the world. She wrote a New York Times Magazine cover story on the crisis of election security.
Zetter is considered a leading expert on election security and cyberwarfare and authored an acclaimed book on the latter topic. Countdown to Zero Day: Stuxnet and the Launch of the World's First Digital Weapon tells the true story of a successful covert operation conducted by the U.S. and Israel to unleash an offensive cyberattack that sabotaged Iran's nuclear program.
Zetter has appeared on CNN, NBC, NPR, and other national TV and radio programs, including "Fresh Air," where she spoke with host Terry Gross about election security issues. She has also spoken on various topics at conferences and private events around the world. In 2022, she gave a keynote address at the Black Hat security conference in Las Vegas, one of the premier cybersecurity conferences in the world.
