How Hacking in the Past Predicts the Future | London
About this event
Being hacked is embarrassing: it suggests that we've got a weakness someone else has spotted, as though we've been conned. But hacking is widespread, carried out by a mixture of actors from amateurs to professionals to state-sponsored experts. It's a consequence of our highly connected world and our reliance on computer code - some of it not deserving of our trust.
As the world gets more connected, what will the hacks of the future look like? The lesson from Cyber Wars is that the hacks we see today are already old, first demonstrated 20 years or more ago. So to glimpse the hacks of the future, look at what researchers and academics are demonstrating now. It'll be happening to us soon enough.
