How smart are the smart devices in your life and have you been smart enough to make sure they’re secure? In this latest podcast, Tim Loveridge gets guidance from local cyber security expert, Carl Ceillam, on how to ensure these gadgets designed to enhance our life and make it easier, don’t instead put us at risk from hackers and harm.

Following on from our digital footprint podcast where we discussed the data trail we leave behind; we now look more closely at internet connected devices. Usually intended to improve our security they may actually be creating more risks if they aren’t set up properly.

Kirsty Bougourd joins in the discussion sharing her own experience and Carl gives invaluable advice and top tips on choosing the right device and making sure it’s set up securely. He explains why we should assume we will get hacked and that if we’re unsure of a device not to buy it let alone plug it in.
