What are some non-technical examples of ransomware (hint: it involves warm weather islands and boats and flags with skulls) How will the new ransomware bounty work? Will it work at all? Who sets the definition of "minimum viable security?" Who should and who can set that definition? Can we get beyond human nature to take advantage of a situation that is beneficial to them? What other economic impacts take place if we can eliminate bad actors (other than a lot of out-of-work security practitioners?) Tune in and enjoy this episode of The Great Security Debate.
