                        ABS' RISK MATTERS X.0 PODCAST

                        Cyber Risk: From a Hacker's Point of View

                        What does cybersecurity look like from the opposition's point of view?

                        In ABS Group's Risk Matters X.0 podcast, Ian Bramson, head of the global cyber security organization at ABS Group of Companies, Inc. (ABS Group), dives into that unique perspective with Mission Secure's Weston Hecker, a professional "white hat" hacker.

                        With a long background in pen-testing (penetration testing) and extensive experience in security research and programming, Weston is an avid speaker on all things hacking. In this episode, Weston shares insights into hacking maritime vessels and oil rigs, and how he's found cyber vulnerabilities in popular software and firmware systems from some of the world's leading technology companies.

                        Listen now to the hacker’s point of view and learn why organizations working in the maritime and offshore oil and gas sectors must confront cyber as a growing threat to operational reliability and resilience.
