Hi and welcome to Hashtag Trending, the Weekend Edition. I’m your host Jim Love.

 

With the recent hacks of two Canadian cities, this conversation is particularly relevant. This is my discussion with a cybersecurity professional Nick Aleks, of ASEC.IO who proudly calls himself a hacker – not someone who wants to invade or destroy, but someone who uses those skills to advance cybersecurity by finding the flaws.  He gives us a “tour of the city” as a hacker would see it. We talk about how vulnerable our cities are and what we can do about it.
