Another Think Coming apologizes for the way this episode may leave listeners feeling. An assessment of the present and future threats of cyber-crime, cyber-terrorism and cyber-warfare from one of the good guys on the front lines of those battles should do little to allay ones fears for their and our digital privacy and security. Security Scorecard Chief Research Officer Alex Heid is proud to call himself a hacker, patient to answer our basic and often poorly articulated questions and explains to us the vulnerability of our nation's power grid, why hackers hack and how they might commandeer those ID-card microchips we've heard about companies implanting in the hands of their employees to gain access to smart phones and other digital devices.
