I spoke on a Docent Institute webinar last night co-hosted by Iowa Illinois IEEE Section – R4 and IEEE Computer Society (Iowa-Illinois Chapter). The title of the talk is, “Navigating Cybersecurity and Systemic Risk in a Rapidly Advancing Technological Landscape”where I discussed #cybersecurity and #systemic_risk. Thanks to Binto George & Michael Umakor, who were co-hosts. Check out the video! You may find the video and slides here:
