Ep. 6: Cybersecurity expert Peter Warren on the risks business leaders need to tackle
From DEF CON, Black Hat, and Wired’s Google Gemini warning… to an urgent conversation with Peter Warren on the shareholder insurance every 2025-2030 C-Suite must have and how connected risks can put anyone in your organization in the firing line.
Warren, chair of the Cyber Security Research Institute, breaks down the why and the how: from AI’s self-poisoning problem and database poisoning to protecting critical infrastructure, safeguarding data integrity, and sharpening leadership decision-making in an AI-driven world.
In this episode of AfterShock, we dig into:
- Why 90% of major cyber-attacks have nation-state fingerprints.
- The rise of database poisoning — the tactic set to replace ransomware.
- AI’s self-poisoning problem, hallucinations, and the erosion of truth.
- From Paul McCartney’s bank details to Lockheed Martin missile defence files — all found on discarded hard drives.
- Why IoT devices, autonomous cars, and even robotic farms are the next frontline.
- The "Herod Clause" public Wi-Fi sting that caught users agreeing to give away their eldest child.
- How over-reliance on GPS and apps is quietly rewiring our brains — and dulling our decision-making.
- The best- and worst-case cyber futures for 2030 — and what leaders must do now.
