Audio: Collective Intelligence Podcast, Bruce Schneier on Public-Interest Tech
Listen to the Audio on Flashpoint-Intel.com
Given the measure by which technology invades every aspect of our lives, the need to have technologists involved in crucial public-interest conversations is growing exponentially.
But that isn’t happening today at any kind of significant scale, and leaders such as Bruce Schneier are trying to change that.
Schneier, a cryptography pioneer, fellow, and lecturer at Harvard’s Kennedy Business School, has taken up the cause of public-interest technology and is trying to bring awareness to the current state of affairs, and how not only security professionals but technologists in all fields can make a difference…
Q&A: Crypto-Guru Bruce Schneier on Teaching Tech to Lawmakers, Plus Privacy Failures—and a Call to Techies to Act
Politicians are, by and large, clueless about technology, and it’s going to be up to engineers and other techies to rectify that, even if it means turning down big pay packets for a while.
This was the message computer security guru Bruce Schneier gave at last week’s RSA Conference in San Francisco, during a keynote address, and it appeared to strike a chord with listeners. Schneier pointed out that, for lawyers, doing pro bono work was expected and a route to career success. The same could be true for the technology industry, he opined.
We sat down with Schneier to have a chat after he had finished autographing copies of his latest book …

The Security Book Everyone in Government Must Read in 2019
If we’re ever going to get security right, technologists must embrace the need for policy and government leaders must do the same with technology, which is why Bruce Schneier’s Click Here to Kill Everybody: Security and Survival in a Hyper-connected World is the 2019 must-read book for every government leader, elected and administrative.

Ben's Book of the Month: Review of "Click Here to Kill Everybody: Security and Survival in a Hyper-connected World"

From cryptography, data collection, privacy, spying, and much more.

For better or for worse it looks like in a few years time the availability of not-connected devices will be much lower than it is today, and this will affect everyone to some degree. Therefore everyone is a stakeholder in making sure that the IoT devices we rely on are secure…
Has Your Toaster Got Cyber-Security? It May Soon Need It
Policy-makers must get to grips with "the internet of things." I'm recommending this book to them
Oh no! Another book with a terrifying, it’s-the-end-of-the-world title. They’re in vogue at the moment. Sadly, for us mere mortals, Click Here to Kill Everybody is by Bruce Schneier, who is one of the world’s top cyber-security experts, and not someone given to exaggeration.
Click Here‘s central point is that everything is turning into a computer. For reasons I cannot fathom, society is presently engaged in a craze of connecting everything to everything else. Most of us think of the internet as something you access on your phone or PC—but your pacemaker, home heating system, baby monitor, car and fridge are all going online too…
