Our next speaker announcement is for someone well known to those who frequent @Hack_Thursday!
@idcyberuk's @fignjam will explore the question of whether the boom in AI can make security easier or much harder.

Love this quote:
"Anger is the punishment you give yourself for someone else's mistake"
(Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar)
Why get upset for someone else's mistakes?

When I’m interviewed, I am often asked about the dangers of AI. This ad I just came across is, in my opinion, a perfect example of what’s truly dangerous about AI.
We are entering an era where AI is not just a tool but is marketed as an emotional companion, which blurs the line between human interaction and artificial interactions. I would love to hear the opinions of psychologists and psychiatrists on this topic. But from my perspective, relying on AI to find emotional company feels like a slippery slope. Are we sacrificing genuine human connections for simulated empathy? Is this healthy? Let’s start a conversation about the impact of these technologies on mental health.
Please comment only if you are human :)

Exec at Ferrari gets a call from "CEO" asking about acquisitions. Exec realizes that this could be a voice clone & asks the "CEO" which book they just talked about, catching the attacker!
Thanks @FortuneMagazine for talking with me about AI voice clones.

Tell me you haven’t watched Reservoir Dogs without telling me you haven’t watched Reservoir Dogs…
Nigel Farage & the Reform boys are coming to parliament ...and they are planning a Reservoir Dogs style show of force.
One party insider says "the foxes are in the hen house".
They have drawn up a hit list of 90 Labour seats they are targeting next

By me @Forbes: Surprised this hasn’t got more attention yet. Revocation of Entrust CAs seems like a pretty big deal. Thoughts?

With a heavy heart, I tell you that my father, Donald Sutherland, has passed away. I personally think one of the most important actors in the history of film. Never daunted by a role, good, bad or ugly. He loved what he did and did what he loved, and one can never ask for more than that. A life well lived.

Rather than saying don't use public Wi-Fi, why not try saying:
Ensure you use DNS over HTTPS
Ensure your applications (browser) and OS are up to date
Ensure PC firewalls block all incoming traffic on unknown networks
Ensure browser configs have strong TLS configurations
If appropriate, consider leveraging a VPN (private)
If appropriate consider leveraging a VPN (Commercial, but remember this may come with it's own risks)
We basically should be making this secure by design/default position in industry or we are failing to do our jobs!
Policies, Standards and promotion of safe technology services is what we should be doing. It's 2024, and people are still the INFOSEC NO CROWD...
it's really odd.
