När botvirus på mammans dator blir startskottet för en karriär inom cybersäkerhet. I detta avsnitt möter Johan Microsofts National Security Officer för Sverige – Sandra Elvin – en av landets mest inflytelserika röster inom digitalt försvar.De går på djupet i hur cyberkriminalitet, statliga aktörer och AI smälter samman till en ny typ av digitalt slagfält. Sandra delar insikter från Microsoft Digital Defense Report 2025, förklarar varför Zero Trust är mer än ett modeord, och varför säkerhet handlar lika mycket om människor och processer som om teknik.Du får höra varför data är den nya oljan, hur AI används av både försvarare och angripare och varför kvantdatorer redan idag påverkar hur vi bygger framtidens skydd.Ett avsnitt för dig som vill förstå det verkliga säkerhetsläget – bortom rubrikerna – och hur Sverige och Microsoft tillsammans försöker hålla världen snurrande även under attack.Kapitel:00:00 Introduktion till Sandra Elvin och ämnet00:11 Sandras resa in i säkerhetsbranschen01:20 Roll och ansvar som National Security Officer04:23 Microsofts arbete med digitalt skydd09:36 Insikter från Microsoft Digital Defense Report13:22 Utmaningar och strategier för att möta hoten online19:16 AI och kvantdatorers påverkan på framtidens skydd27:46 Hur organisationer kan stärka sitt försvar33:13 Avslutande tankar och råd till nästa generationResurser:Microsoft Digital Defense Report 2025Microsoft Security BlogConnecta på LinkedIn:Sandra Elvin | LinkedInJohan WallquistAdam Palm Hosted on Acast.

Stāsta diriģents Andris Veismanis 1989. gadā kamerkoris "Ave Sol" jau otro reizi Imanta Kokara vadībā devās uz Amerikas Savienotajām Valstīm. Pirmā reize bija sensacionālu uzstāšanās virkne ASV un Kanādā 1987. gadā. Trimdas sabiedrība zumēja kā bišu spiets – vieni ļoti gaidīja, otri ar lielu neuzticību raudzījās uz kori no tomēr vēl nebrīvās Latvijas. Mani kā ierindas kora mākslinieku šī šūmēšanās maz ietekmēja. Gatavojos atkalredzēties ar pirmajā reizē iepazītajiem trimdas latviešiem. Diemžēl Gido Kokars, Imanta brālis [kas bija, kā viņš teica, "Ave Sol" menedžeris] jauca vārdus un 1989. gada sarakstā biju kļuvis par Pēteri – attiecīgi visi agrāk satiktie draugi domāja, ka brauc cits cilvēks. Mans uzvārds ar nepareizu vārdu pat nonāca Kalifornijas koncertzāles afišā, kur atskaņojām slaveno Lūcijas Garūtas kantāti Dievs, Tava zeme deg, kurā man pēc mana profesora Imanta Kokara lūguma bija jādzied tenora solo... Bet stāsts šoreiz par viesošanos Čikāgā. Tur ieradāmies pēc Klīvlendas koncerta. Čikāgas Latviešu biedrības nama skaistā ķieģeļu ēka, kas mūsu pirmajā viesošanās reizē viesmīlīgi vēra durvis kora "Ave Sol" un trimdas latviešu sabiedrības saviesīgajam vakaram, kurā mūs iepriecināja leģendārā grupa "Čikāgas piecīši", šoreiz pēc kora dziedātāju sadalīšanas pa mājām stāvēja tukša un pamesta. Vienīgā, kura kaut ko gaidīja, bija mūsu kolēģe Sandra Šmate, kurai jau bija zināms mājastēvs, bet mums ar Mārtiņu Klišānu nebija neviena – šķita, ka būs jāpaliek biedrībā pa nakti. Bet liktenis bija lēmis savādāk, un solīdais kungs – Sandras namatēvs – ātri sameklēja sarakstu: mūsu uzņemošā puse bija Alnis Cers un Mārtiņš Sīmanis. Pat adrese bija zināma. Šis enerģiskais "Daugavas vanags" pat atrada vietu mūsu lielajiem koferiem savā mazajā automašīnā! Pavisam drīz nonācām skaistu māju ielā, kur mūs sagaidīja divi mūziķi – "underground" grupas basists Mārtiņš Sīmanis un jaunais grupas "Čikāgas piecīši" dalībnieks Alnis Cers. Alnis Cers gatavojās braucienam ar Čikāgas piecīšiem uz Latviju, bet Mārtiņš Sīmanis strādāja, tā ka abiem jaunajiem mūziķiem laika mums nebija. Iepriekšējā reizē 1987. gadā dzīvoju pie Andra Ieviņa – tā bija brīnišķīga iespēja satikties ar Andra jaundibināto ģimeni. Mūsu uzņēmējpuses jauniešiem bija trimdas latviešu telefona numuri. Piezvanīju Andrim: izrādās, uzzinot, ka manis "Ave Sol" sarakstā nav, ģimene bija izlēmusi nevienu šoreiz neuzņemt. Bet tagad, ja reiz esmu atbraucis uz Čikāgu, lai tik kopā ar Mārtiņu Klišānu braucot šurp! Mārtiņš Sīmanis, dzirdot par tādu pavērsienu, uzreiz piedāvāja savu 1960. gadu buiku. Vēl iedeva 10 ASV dolārus degvielai un melnbaltu Čikāgas kartes kserokopiju. Mārtiņš Klišāns ar auto Latvijā bija braucis, es – nekad. Vienojāmies, ka Mārtiņš stūrēs, bet es mēģināšu sekot norādēm kartē – neba mēs no bailīgākajiem… Līdz brīdim, kad ieraudzījām mums atvēlēto buiku. Mums priekšā stāvēja zaļš, milzīgs limuzīns – trīsguļamās gultas platumā ar automātisko ātrumkārbu. Amerikas Mārtiņš sniedza īso pamācību šādas ātrumkārbas lietošanā, un mēs varējām doties. Sīmaņu Mārtiņš parādīja ar roku brauciena virzienu… Tā mēs, lēni gāzelēdamies, izkustējāmies pa guļamrajona nelielo ieliņu, kura drīz vien atdūrās vienā no centrālajām Čikāgas artērijām. Ātrumtrase, kas gāja cauri Čikāgai no ziemeļiem uz dienvidiem, bija liels izaicinājums mūsu palielajam auto kuģim. Mūsu ceļš pie Andra Ieviņa gāja pa Hārlemas avēniju. Līdzīgi kā Ņujorkas Hārlemas rajonā, arī šeit tas bija melnādaino rajons. Pie daudzu mājokļu durvīm atradās bariņš jauniešu ar mūzikas centriem rokās, kuri klausījās nu jau modē nākušo RAP mūziku. Arī Mārtiņš ieslēdza automašīnas īsviļņu staciju ar šo mūziku. Logus cieši aizvērām un turpinājām ceļu… Izskatījās, ka šajā rajonā bijām vienīgie baltie. Bijām tik tālu jau nonākuši uz dienvidiem, ka nācās šķērsot paralēli ejošu metro līniju virszemē. Kartē nevarēja saskatīt precīzu šādas šķērsojošas ielas atrašanos, tāpēc kļūdaini nogriezāmies pa kreisi agrāk. Ieliņa, sākumā būdama ar asfalta segumu, drīz pārvērtās zemes ceļā ar mežonīgiem krūmājiem abās pusēs... Pa šo nu jau tikai celiņu mums pretī nāca paliels bariņš vietējo, kas nelabprāt izlaida cauri. Saprotams, kāpēc ieliņa atdūrās dzelzceļa uzbērumā... Nu mums īsti nebija kur sprukt. Priekšā – uzbērums, aizmugurē – labs bariņš jauniešu. Par laimi, kādas agrāk iebrauktas auto sliedes gar šo uzbērumu caur krūmiem pēkšņi mūs izveda uz ļoti dzīvas satiksmes ielas. Mūsu auto, nedaudz zvārodamies, pamazām iekļāvās satiksmē, bet pavisam drīz pie sarkanās gaismas pirmajā luksoforā blakus nostājās auto un kāds metiss rādīja, lai Mārtiņš attaisa logu. Pa mazu spraudziņu varēja dzirdēt kaut ko par secret service. Pie zaļās gaismas Mārtiņš sāka strauji braukt, bet blakus auto bija ātrāks, mašīna mums aizšķērsoja ceļu, un no tās izlēca divi ar pistolēm bruņoti cilvēki, kas kliedza: "Secret service, have You pistols, guns, alchocol, drugs?" Mūs, paceltām rokām stāvošus, piespieda pie auto... Kamēr viens mūs apsargāja, tikmēr otrs pārbaudīja visu auto – neko neatrazdami, sāka izjautāt, kur vadītāja licence [to vēl nebijām sākuši kārtot], dokumenti [pases palika pie Sīmaņa dzīvoklī]. No kurienes esam? Teicām – no Latvijas, par ko viņi neko nebija dzirdējuši, un jautāja: "russians?" Teicām – nē, ka tas ir blakus Polijai un Lietuvai (zinot, ka Čikāgā ir lietuviešu kvartāls). Tad viņi jautāja: kāda mums nodarbošanās, teicām – "choirists". "Choir singers". Tad viņi atdeva atslēgas un strauji aizbrauca. Galu galā laimīgi nokļuvām pie Andra Ieviņa. Pēc šī notikuma Rīgā kopā ar Mārtiņu nodibinājām kamerkori "Sacrum".

Sandra Wigren var i Thailand när tsunamin inträffade 2004. Hon överlevde katastrofen, men all död och allt lidande hon fick se drabbade henne hårt mentalt. Under några år led hon av svår posttraumatisk stress, något som kom att få förödande konsekvenser. Hon förlorade allt hon ägde och hamnade på samhällets botten. I många år handlade det om ren överlevnad. Sandra hamnade i Holland, föll ner i en djup depression, drogberoende och försökte till slut ta sitt liv.Men så slungades hon tillbaka till sin kropp, hon fick en andra chans. Ur en gnista som var starkare än någonting annat påbörjade hon livsresan in i healing och skapandet av sitt livsverk SoulFitness på en strand på paradisön Koh Lanta i Thailand. Med syfte är att lyfta människor från deras rädslor samt att ge insikt om mirakler och att allt är möjligt. Varmt välkomna till ”Så in i Själen”.
