Meet the Hacktivists: Good guys, living in the gray?
Manage episode 308407892 series 2974167
From rooting out government corruption to taking down some of the world’s worst criminals, hacktivists often say they are motivated by the greater good. But the legality of their methods – and the outcomes they deliver – aren’t always so black and white.
Erika dives into the fascinating world of white-hat hackers, OpSec Groups and all the moral questions and curiosities in between, with Crowdstrike Canada’s Stephane Asselin, senior sales engineer manager. Find out who these hacktivists are, how they operate and whether they are helping the professionals, like Stephane, get a better night’s sleep.
Featuring:
Stephane Asselin, Senior Sales Engineer Manager - Crowdstrike Canada
