A critical examination of the foundational flaws that have led to the current cybersecurity crisis. This book takes a historical approach to understanding how short-term decision-making, driven by convenience and profit, compromised the long-term security of the internet. From the introduction of public access to secure networks to the widespread deception associated with Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA), this book uncovers the decisions, both intentional and negligent, that have allowed cybersecurity vulnerabilities to proliferate. Divided into well-structured chapters that trace the evolution of these issues, Digital Deception provides a clear and fact-based narrative that highlights where the system went wrong and why. It also shines a light on the complicity of various actors (vendors, auditors, corporate leaders, and even educational institutions) in perpetuating a broken system. More than just a critique, "Digital Deception" offers a path forward, rooted in real Computer Science, to restore trust and security in our digital world. This book is primarily written for cybersecurity professionals, corporate leaders, lawyers and policymakers. It is also relevant to educators in the field of cybersecurity, and anyone interested in the integrity of the internet.
