Cyber threats and attacks are reported on almost every day. Whether it is classified government documents or cryptocurrency being stolen, their frequency is on the rise. It is easy to get lost in the technical detail of how these attacks unfold, and forget that these actions have been initiated by a human. In this talk, Sven breaks down what that means to us and what can be learned from analysing the human element. Sven is the Chief Executive Officer of Diamond Cyber Security, a boutique cyber security firm based in Perth and Adelaide. He is a veteran having served 17 and a half years in the Army, with over 9 years in the Special Forces. Sven’s career culminated as the Commanding Officer of the 126th (Commando) Signals Squadron within 2nd Commando Regiment. He has deployed to Afghanistan, Iraq, Solomon Islands, Lebanon and Syria.
Upon leaving the Army Sven founded Diamond Cyber alongside Michael Malone, the founder of iiNet and Ian McFarlane, founder of Ajilon.
Sven serves as both the CEO and Defensive Cyber Principal of DCS. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at [ Ссылка ]
