Episode 8: "Human Firewall" with Sara Carty

from Trendy Words · host Andrew Monro

For this episode, we wade into the (somewhat nice) jargon and empty words of cybersecurity with "Human Firewall."Cybersecurity has a knack for creating turns of phrase that are hard for outsiders to understand. Human firewall has sprung the the idea that it is people, rather than tools or technology, is both the first and last line of defence against cyber attacks, and while this is accurate, it is regularly weaponised into fear rather than empowerment.Sara Carty is one of the co-founders of cybersecurity marketing studio, Unboring, and Ph.D candidate in Cyber Diplomacy.Sara's reading recommendations:- Sizing People Up, by Robin Dreeke- The People Hacker, by Jenny Radcliffe- The Psychology of Spies and Spying, by Adrian Furnham and John TaylorUnboring: https://www.unboring.digital/Sara on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/saracarty/

Wisdom's Proof JesusLifeTogether In a world of religion, ritual, hierarchy, control, money, marketing, and more flavors than 10,000 Baskin Robbins — how can we know what is Right and True? Some just give up. Bad move. JESUS LIVES and REIGNS! Some simply "go along to get along" to conform to culture and biological family. Really bad move, unless you are a lemming and don't care about the destiny someone else has chosen for you. But then JESUS, knowing this day would come, said, "By their fruit you shall know them" and "Wisdom is PROVED RIGHT by all her CHILDREN." Luke 7:35 Find some random offspring from whatever you wish you knew more about, look carefully at the second generation, and see if the gates of Hell are prevailing — as they would in a "mere words" and "mere ceremonies" attendance-based religious organization. OR, is satan getting busted in the mouth by that second generation? What is the fruit and the quality of LIVES of the children - once they can make their own choices? Then you'll Know.
