Cryptocurrencies are the latest in a series of market bubbles that demonstrate irrational exuberance. In this lecture, Mitch Parker, CISO of IU Health, will go over previous market bubbles, and compare and contrast the differences between the security controls in two peer to peer exchange methods, the current US federal banking system, and Bitcoin. Through this, Mitch will demonstrate the need to have security built into both the technical and non-technical controls of a financial system, and that the power of the system is not just based upon backing by a central bank, but by the series of controls and measures used by the central bank and accounting standards to provide customers the assurance that they are protected.
