ICTP 274: Cybersecurity awareness, and why we need to tackle it from both the micro and macro perspective, with Dr Keith Nurse and Kristerbella Sookdeo

Continuing with our recognition of Cybersecurity Awareness Month, we have another instalment in our longstanding Expert Insight series on cyber threats and security, but with a twist! Joining us are Dr Keith Nurse, of the College of Science, Technology and Applied Arts Trinidad and Tobago and Kristerbella Sookdeo, of Fortinet, to chat about cybersecurity awareness. Among other things, we discuss:   *  the common cyber threats or incidents in the Caribbean region;   *  the current state of cybersecurity awareness;   *  the implications of the “financialisation of the global economy” on the security landscape; and   *  how to tackle the rate of change in the security space and the continual need to build awareness.   The episode, show notes and links to some of the things mentioned during the episode can be found on the ICT Pulse Podcast Page (www.ict-pulse.com/category/podcast/)    Enjoyed the episode?  Do rate the show and leave us a review!     Also, connect with us on: Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/ICTPulse/  Instagram –  https://www.instagram.com/ictpulse/  Twitter –  https://twitter.com/ICTPulse  LinkedIn –  https://www.linkedin.com/company/3745954/admin/  Join our mailing list: http://eepurl.com/qnUtj    Music credit: The Last Word (Oui Ma Chérie), by Andy Narrell Podcast editing support:  Mayra Bonilla Lopez   ---------------- Also, Sponsorship Opportunities!
