Stiennon Talks to SecureLexicon’s Steven Fox
By Richard Stiennon, Chief Research Analyst, IT-Harvest
I had a chance to talk about the topic of cyber warfare with Steven Fox of Secure Lexicon.
Steven is focused on applying the teachings of Sun Tsu’s “Art of War” to the concepts of cyber warfare.
Listen to the podcast as Steven asks me about “Knowing thy enemy”, “lessons learned”, “crowd sourcing attacks”, “understanding environmental and cultural context”, “Iranian cyber war”, and “political goals”.
We recorded this over Skype so there are some interesting audio effects that I kind of like. Makes it sound like I am on the moon or something.
