Episode 66 – Tech-Crime & the Future Now – Skeeve Stevens, Chief Futurist with Future Sumo

Summary:   Futurist Skeeve Stevens provides his technical insights into what he describes as the future of now - or your future. With a technical mindset Skeeve considers not only what criminals or terrorists may plot, with enabling technology, but also lone wolves, the disgruntled or disenfranchised or the student and child. With reference to home-made laser weapons, synthetic drugs and hackable building management systems, Skeeve uses his insights and experience, including as a former hacker, to raise awareness of not just the vulnerabilities of the future but the vulnerabilities of today. We missed the first of his roadshow tour dates in Australia - starting 15 May in Canberra but check out the Australian Computer Society website for upcoming appearances (https://www.acs.org.au/cpd-education/edxn/are-you-cyber-ready.html). Once you meet or see Skeeve present, you won’t be quick to forget the experience. Recorded May 1, 2018 at the 2nd Annual Security, Safety & Counter Terrorism Forum, Sydney.
