LDN 304: Cyber Security

LDN London Digital Nattering

There was a more innocent time in computer technology, before viruses, before hacking, but those days are in the past. We’re now a networked society, hooking our bank accounts, social profiles and by extension our brains together. What brings us together also makes us vulnerable.

And with the revelations of foreign interference in the 2016 US Presidential elections, and the Brexit referendum, what does all this mean for the security of our democracy?

Joining me today to explore these questions is cyber security expert Davey McGlade. Davey has worked for many years in systems engineering, architecture and cyber security. He has advised and led on security initiatives for the British Government, and has also worked internationally with the US State Department, Homeland Security, Secret Service and NSA.
