"Cybersecurity is everyone's job," with guest, Spencer Luke
Manage episode 315605208 series 3277898
Cybersecurity, to simplify it a bit, is all about the good guys (or white hats) going after the bad guys. Actually, the industry calls them Bad Actors. Actors? For guys who could bring down airplanes, or cripple a city’s power grid, that's an odd label.
But it’s a real thing. If you’ve heard of cyber intruders hacking, say, a webcam in a child’s bedroom, or the term Zoombombing (where someone could crash a Zoom conference call, or take control of the microphone) then you would be thankful that there is such a field as cybersecurity. People who look out for these ‘bad actors’ 247. It’s quickly become a college level class.
So for this reason and more –because we talk about safe digital practices in my class – I invited Spencer Luke, a cybersecurity expert, to talk to my students. I like how he demystifies techspeak, and avoids the jargon. Enjoy the show!
