Studying cybersecurity has been an eye-opening journey, blending my passion for storytelling with the intricate world of digital protection. With a background in cinema and television production, I've always been captivated by the power of media to shape narratives and influence perspectives. As I delve deeper into the realm of cybercrime, hackers, hacktivism, and the broader cybersecurity landscape, I find myself at the intersection of technology and storytelling. Media like "Darknet Diaries" have been instrumental in this exploration, offering fascinating insights through interviews with intriguing guests and discussions on compelling topics. ... https://lnkd.in/guEBDM7k ... #cybercrime #cybereducation

I've been listening to this podcast called Darknet Diaries during my workouts and walks lately It is a series by a gentleman named Jack Rhysider The podcast is an investigated show meant to dive into real events in cybersecurity, specifically about people's experiences in areas considered "dark net" These include moments like a high school student who got all of the principal's passwords (including their personal Twitter account) because of their insecure drive on the network, teams hired by countries to spy on others, and how organisations track down criminals stealing money Every episode is different and offers a different takeaway. Episode 5 tells the story of how a man dived into how much exposure a line of ASUS routers came with by default. Including, but not limited to, accessing FTP servers remotely that contained the username and password to the router's settings. A standard example of the types of attacks routers are vulnerable if set by people who don't understand what they are enabling Episode 14 tells the story of how a hospital was hacked because of news reports of a girl's parents who weren't allowed to take/see their child. This sparked public outrage and led to groups like Anonymous attacking the hospital and causing technical issues with hospital equipment regardless of how they were being used at the time. The story with the little girl turned out to be exaggerated but the damage was already done. It's a creepy way to show how mobs cause damage even through hacking Episode 31 goes into the "Subscribe to PewDiePie" campaign (one that I remember from college) and how someone used their minimum knowledge of hacking to cause 50,000 printers around the world to print whatever they wanted. The very same person who conducted the attack even speaks on it and explains how they got caught up in their online attention to the point that they exposed too much of themselves and got into trouble. It was interesting to hear how they had to determine if their attack was successful by searching on Twitter for people posting asking why their printer is suddenly printer "Subscribe to PewDiePie" The podcast has almost 150 episodes to date and is not ending soon Personally I recommend it as a way to have an ear open in the area of cybersecurity. Learning different operating systems, best security practices, and even how to hack are all perfectly good ways to get into the field. But it is also good to get exposure to what is happening in the real world and how it is impacting people small and large. By learning what has happened or is happening, I can not only learn what is theoretically possible but also UNDERSTAND what is possible You can find the series on Spotify, YouTube, or their website: https://lnkd.in/g7rKHZ9z
