As technology evolves at blinding speeds, so too does the world of cybersecurity. But is online security keeping up with the demands of this digital age? Today we are joined by Bruce Schneier, a public-interest technologist working at the intersection of security, technology, and people.

We learn about Bruce’s professional background and interests before diving into the biggest security threats and challenges that business leaders face today. We unpack the role of AI in cybersecurity, where cryptography fits in, why national cybersecurity vulnerabilities are a bigger concern than many realize, and the role of new technology in building or breaking trust in this digital age.
