Listen "Cyber: crime’s digital economy"
Episode Synopsis
Nothing seems able to stop the growth of cybercrime. And ransomware, above all, has woken up boards to the threat.
But there is more to cybercrime than ransomware, and the drivers behind online crime are varied too. And the scale of the problem means that few, if any, organisations can tackle it alone.
Our guest this week is security expert, chief scientist at Rapid 7 and Europol EC3 adviser Raj Samani. He talks to Stephen Pritchard about why cybercrime is far more than an IT security issue, and why a range of responses will be needed to reduce the threat.
