	Description:		We know that cybersecurity presents a huge risk to us both personally and professionally, but what can we do to stay safe? To answer this question I spoke with cybersecurity expert Raj Samani, who at the time of recording was Chief Scientist at McAfee, and is now at Rapid7 on the Actionable Futurist Podcast®. As an international cybercrime expert, Raj has assisted multiple law enforcement agencies in cybercrime cases, and is a special advisor to the European Cybercrime Centre and is on the advisory councils for Infosecurity Europe and Infosecurity Magazine. Cybersecurity threats now have the potential to completely cripple companies and complete supply chains and my discussion with Raj is accessible to audiences of all types, and contains advice for a board of directors, right down to students considering their career options. In this wide-ranging discussion, we covered topics including: Cybercrime in a pandemic world How cybercrime has evolved How supply chains are now a target The Log4j vulnerability and what it means Are boards taking cyber threats seriously? Making the board uncomfortable about the risks Contextualising why cybersecurity matters Can AI help fight cybercrime? Actionable advice to keep safe How much security do you need?
