Identity’s role in cybersecurity with Swedish TV’s ethical hacker, Linus Kvarnhammar – Podcast Episode 56
Following his Swedish TV series, Hackad, professional hacker Linus discusses the biggest risks that insufficient identity management can create for individuals and organisations. Oscar and Linus explore the pitfalls of authentication, authorization (including MFA), and more – and how these lead to security incidents. "We have a standard way of identifying a person in real life – passport, driver’s license, national identity card. But as far as I’m aware, we don’t have one that is universally accepted both by the individual and companies" Linus is an independent cyber security consultant and professional hacker. He is also one of the hackers in the TV series “Hackad” on SVT. He has more than 20 years of experience working in the IT industry where the last 10 years have been spent exclusively doing penetration tests of applications and networks with a few social engineering assignments every now and then.
