It is not a question of whether you will be hacked, but when and how often. In his presentation ‘You will be hacked’, Erik discusses the importance of cybersecurity for individuals and organizations. He addresses the shift of crime from the physical to the digital world. Using relevant examples, Erik explores cybersecurity trends and developments. Cybersecurity is important for everyone. Not just for banks, but also for the baker around the corner. To make yourself, your organization, the Netherlands, and the world a little safer, everyone needs to learn to think like a hacker. Hacking is not difficult. Erik demonstrates with an example how you can hack a device that is not up-to-date.
