mnemonic security podcast

Cryptology is fundamental for the way the internet works today. But what exactly is modern cryptology, and what are the most common areas in which it’s being used?

To guide us through this complex area, Robby’s joined by Bor de Kock, PhD. in Cryptology and Assistant Professor at NTNU.

They talk about some of the main challenges to cryptology these days, encryption security and its limitations, and how Bor expects quantum computing to affect cryptology.

Bor also shares what makes him both optimistic and pessimistic when it comes to the future of internet security.

Joe Slowik, ATT&CK CTI Lead at MITRE, joins the latest episode of the mnemonic security podcast to share his insights on the complexities of securing critical infrastructure. With a background in cyber threat intelligence, incident response, and detection engineering, Joe discusses with Robby the challenge of defining and prioritising what's truly "critical" in a landscape where every sector claims importance.

They explore the difficulty in distributing security investments across industries and the growing need for organisations of all sizes to adopt a mindset of self-defence. Joe also addresses the potential consequences of large-scale cyberattacks, such as those by Volt Typhoon, emphasising the need for coordinated incident response and leadership during crisis scenarios. He concludes with a strong call for resilience and highlights the vital role CEOs play in ensuring organisational preparedness.
