Joining RANT again after far too long writing a book, we’ve got a great guest star speaker returning to the airwaves.
Our co-host for this 80s style radio show will be your well-known Geoff White who is an investigative journalist covering technology for BBC News, Channel 4 News, Audible, Forbes online and many others. His book based on cybercrime ‘Crime Dot Com’ covers full gamut, from Cold War-era fraudsters to today’s vote riggers. It will be published on 10th August 2020 and the whole RANT Community will be given a unique discount for pre-orders.
Key topics include:
- Tracking down the author of the LoveBug virus to a Filipino mark 20 yrs after he disappeared
- The raid on Bangladesh Bank that allegedly netted North Korea $81m
- Disinformation, hacking and journalism – the intersection between media and hackers and how that’s played out (there’s an interesting tale around coronavirus and Ukraine here)
- Evolution of the dark web towards encrypted apps
- Energy sector hacking (also a good story about Ukraine, but starting to happen in UK too)
- How cybercrime has responded to coronavirus
Crack open a beer for a tongue in cheek experience with live commentary from your peers and a very insightful discussion!
