Podcasts about cybersecurity futures

From December 7, 2019: Wargaming has long been a staple of military strategizing, but how do we plan for the future in cyberspace, a realm where governments do not hold a monopoly on capabilities? A new report from the Atlantic Council argues that "visualizing and describing the evolution of cyber capabilities and strategic competition require envisioning multiple futures," and the report sets out to do exactly that. This week, Lawfare's Susan Hennessey sat down with John Watts, a senior fellow at the Atlantic Council's Scowcroft Center for Strategy and Security, and JD Work, the Bren Chair for Cyber Conflict and Security at the Marine Corps University, who are authors of "Alternate Cybersecurity Futures," along with Nina Kollars, Ben Jensen, and Chris Whyte. They talked about the behind-the-scenes of strategic policy planning, the value of creativity, and what scenarios emerge when you ask cybersecurity experts to predict the future.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/lawfare.

Our guest, Robin Smith, Head of Cyber and Information Security, Aston Martin Lagonda, is a self-proclaimed advocate for lean cybersecurity. But does lean cybersecurity equate to weak cybersecurity? Only if you let it be defined that way. Robin doesn't let it be defined that way.Based on years of experience, Robin posits that cybersecurity has become key to protecting the value streams of any organization. So, for Aston Martin, it's essential that the vehicles are designed, protected, and updated to address any risk issues that could impact the business. That's a value stream. That's a security value stream.When the organization has a mindset toward cybersecurity that is predicated not just on the financial cost but on the value that can be amplified by better security, that's a critically important move forward for the organization's leaders and the industry at large.____________________________GuestRobin SmithOn Twitter

How can scenario planning and stories help leaders to think about the future, plan for it, and invest to mitigate risk? In this episode Jonathan and DJ talk with Jesse Goldhammer, Managing Director of Deloitte’s West Coast Cybersecurity practice and one of the world’s leading scenario thinkers, about the role of scenarios and futures thinking in cybersecurity and national security planning. Scenario planning began as a practice in the 1970s with Royal Dutch Shell following the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Companies (OPEC) crisis that caught oil companies off-guard. After the market was disrupted, Shell began to invest in scenarios to get ahead of future risks -- and companies and governments have adopted the practice ever since, using scenarios to think about everything from technology adoption to cybersecurity to the future of work to the nature of warfare.

Unusual Gathering | Episode XXIII Conversations At The Intersection Of IT Security And Society Part Of Our RSA Conference | San Francisco 2019 Coverage Guests Diana Kelley | Priscilla Koepke | Ann Cleaveland Host Marco Ciappelli This Episode: Tomorrow starts today. Cybersecurity Futures 2025. This panel was recorded on the Moscone Center floor during RSA Conference 2025. It follows a Pre-Conference podcast with panelist Dawn Thomas and Alan Cohn and the actual presentation that took place the day before this recording. The project “Cybersecurity Futures 2025” is a collaboration between the University of California, Berkeley Center for Long-Term Cybersecurity (CLTC) and CNA’s Institute for Public Research, conducted in partnership with the World Economic Forum’s Global Future Council on Cybersecurity (2016-2018) and the Forum’s Centre for Cybersecurity. If this topic doesn’t fit right At The Intersection Of IT Security And Society I am not sure what else could. It is an exciting time to be alive with so many incredible scientific and technological advancements in every area of our lives, with states interacting together and cultures mixing in a global boundary-less cyberspace. It is also a dangerous time to be alive in this new technological era where cybersecurity issues encompass every area of our lives and affect geopolitical dynamics, and the way societies evolve. The decisions we are making today about technology interacting with humans are going to affect our society in 2025 and way beyond that time.  It is now that we must force ourselves to think about fundamental philosophical questions and come up with good answers and courses of action, because those, or the lack of those, are already affecting us now and will affect us even more in our future. For this panel, I invited Ann Cleaveland, (CLTC Executive Director), Diana Kelly (Microsoft), and Priscilla Koepke (Massachusetts Institute of Technology) to recap the research and discuss what the biggest challenges, fears, and possible solutions to the four presented scenarios are. Scenario 1 — Quantum Leap Scenario 2 — The New Wiggle Room Scenario 3 — Barlow’s Revenge Scenario 4 — Trust Us Are we looking at a dystopian, a utopian or a realistic future that we can shape making the right choices today? You decide. Literally, you, they, and we. We can decide, all together if we act now. This is just a starting point. ________ Thanks to our episode sponsors: Edgescan - https://www.itspmagazine.com/company-directory/edgescan Bugcrowd - https://www.itspmagazine.com/company-directory/bugcrowd STEALTHbits - https://www.itspmagazine.com/company-directory/stealthbits Devo - https://www.itspmagazine.com/company-directory/devo Onapsis - https://www.itspmagazine.com/company-directory/onapsis Nintex - https://www.itspmagazine.com/company-directory/nintex ________ For more Unusual Gatherings: https://www.itspmagazine.com/unusual-gatherings

 Dawn Thomas and Alan Cohn Your hosts are: 
Sean Martin and Marco Ciappelli What is this presentation about? Well let’s start with something we should all know by now: Cybersecurity is a global issue. How could it be otherwise considering that technology has connected all of us? Literally connected. It is not just a matter of communication between people far away or making distances much shorter; we are talking about connecting all of us in a way that we would not have thought possible a few decades ago. Technology is somehow part of almost everything we do nowadays, and there is no going back. Sure it is nice to be able to unplug some of our devices here and there, but that is not stopping the future from happening. Despite what some people like to think, for the most part, we do not live in little, or big, bubbles anymore, and even when we consider our homes, towns or countries to be unique, independent or even isolated from the rest of the world, we are still very much connected with each other. The future is a globalized world of technology all connected together, and denying it or ignoring it is quite dangerous. It is an exciting time to be alive with so many incredible scientific and technological advancements in every area of our lives, with states interacting together and cultures mixing in a global boundary-less cyberspace. It is also a dangerous time to be alive in this new technological era where cybersecurity issues encompass every area of our lives and affect geopolitical dynamics, and the way societies evolve. The decisions we are making today about technology interacting with humans are going to affect our society in 2025 and way beyond that time. It is now that we must force ourselves to think about fundamental philosophical questions and come up with good answers and courses of action, because those, or the lack of those, are already affecting us now and will affect us even more in our future. To predict how this future may look, in 2016 The World Economic Forum Global Future Council on Cybersecurity and the UC Berkeley Center for Long-Term Cybersecurity began a collaboration to develop a set of future-looking cybersecurity scenarios. These scenarios are very diverse and, as they may appear like a Sci-Fi movie script, contain elements that exist, or are developing, in our present society. By opening the conversations about technology outside of the technology field, using a multidisciplinary approach, and making the stage the place where these conversations happen, the whole world — instead of just individual nations — might actually succeed in addressing this issue before it is too late. 2025 is not that far away. As far as I am concerned, the future is today because it is today where we shape it. So listen up and if you are at RSA Conference in San Francisco join this engaging and interactive presentation that will take place on March 6, 2019, | 1:30 PM – 2:20 PM | Moscone South #301 But now it is time to listen up.
