In this episode of the podcast, host Paul Roberts welcomes Tanya Janca of She Hacks Purple back into the studio. Tanya talks about her newly released book: Alice and Bob Learn Secure Coding, published by Wiley and the larger problem of how to promote the teaching of secure coding practices to developers.
We speak with Mikko Hyppönen on the sidelines of the DEF CON Conference in Las Vegas to talk about his new book, “If its Smart it Vulnerable.”
We speak with John Shegerian of ERI about his new book: “The Insecurity of Everything” and how our e-waste may be exposing sensitive data to other nations.
The US economy hasn’t simply allowed tech giants to ignore the social harms of their platforms; it has incentivized it. In his new book, Terms of Disservice, Dipayan Ghosh says regulation may be the only solution.
In-brief: is it ever the case that things happen that “nobody saw coming”? Our guest on this week’s podcast would say “no.” He is Richard Clarke, a former National Coordinator for Security, Infrastructure Protection and Counter-terrorism for the United States and a veteran of four administrations, from President Ronald Reagan through to President George W. Bush. We talk about modern-day Cassandras: people who are warning about looming catastrophes, mostly in vain.
