Mikko Hermanni Hypp\u00f6nen is a Finnish computer security expert, speaker and author. He is known for the Hypp\u00f6nen Law about IoT security, which states that whenever an appliance is described as being “smart”, it is vulnerable. He joins us on episode 383, where we discuss malware, viruses, cyber warfare, and more from If It’s Smart, It’s Vulnerable<\/em>. It was great speaking with Mikko on these topics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“All our devices and gadgets\u2015from our refrigerators to our home security systems, vacuum cleaners, and stereos\u2015are going online, just like our computers did. But once we\u2019ve successfully connected our devices to the internet, do we have any hope of keeping them, and ourselves, safe from the dangers that lurk beneath the digital waters?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In\u00a0If It\u2019s Smart, It\u2019s Vulnerable<\/em>, veteran cybersecurity professional Mikko Hypponen delivers an eye-opening exploration of the best\u2015and worst\u2015things the internet has given us. From instant connectivity between any two points on the globe to organized ransomware gangs, the net truly has been a mixed blessing. In this book, the author explores the transformative potential of the future of the internet, as well as those things that threaten its continued existence: government surveillance, censorship, organized crime, and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
