In this episode, Rob Aragao sits down with cybersecurity expert and former FBI operative, Eric O'Neill, to discuss the looming cyber threats to critical infrastructure. Eric delves into the vulnerabilities of the U.S. power grid, water systems, and communications networks, emphasizing how these vital sectors are targeted by hostile actors like Russia, China, North Korea, and Iran. He shares eye-opening examples of past attacks, probes, and the intricate nature of these digital threats, from the infamous Ukraine blackout to ongoing reconnaissance efforts.
As geopolitical tensions rise, Eric warns of the potential for catastrophic attacks on critical infrastructure and the growing risk of combined cyber-kinetic strikes. They explore how adversaries infiltrate SCADA networks, the importance of evolving cybersecurity measures, and the necessity of shifting from perimeter defense to active threat hunting.
Eric also gives a sneak peek into his forthcoming book, Invisible Threat, which teaches readers how to think like a spy and defend against modern cybercrime. Packed with real-world insights and practical advice, this episode is a must-listen for anyone concerned with the future of cybersecurity and national security.
