We’re excited to welcome back to the podcast global security expert, speaker and author Mikko Hypponen who currently serves as Chief Research Officer at WithSecure. We dive into his book “If It’s Smart, It’s Vulnerable”  and how cybersecurity has evolved and changed in the last year since it was published. He also shines a light on the ever-present topic of AI – the opportunity, risks, emerging regulations, deepfakes, geopolitical attack capabilities and so much more! And we talk about his road to cyber (more than 30 years!) and the spark of an article from 1983 on AI.
