This Story Studio Network podcast series, ponders those questions and explores the solutions to harden. Cybersecurity. Welcome to 1:CLICK 2:CYBER CHAOS.
It's not a matter of if, but when your data will be breached. It is hospitals that are being attacked. It is financial institutions. It is governments. It's everyone, including individuals.
When you look at things like connected cities and connected cars and connected devices, they are all entry points for “the bad guys” to get into your networks. Combatting cybercrime is becoming all the more challenging. There's a shortfall of 3 million jobs globally. That’s good news for those who are pursuing a career in cyber security.

We delve into the new dimension of this conflict brought about by low-level hacks and highlight concerns that Hamas-affiliated hackers might escalate the dispute into full-fledged cyber warfare. With today's technology, distinguishing fact from fiction has become increasingly challenging, and hacktivists are piling on, facilitating, enabling, and pushing their cause. We wrap up the episode by taking stock. It’s been four years since Canada created the Centre for Cyber Security. How secure is the nation now? You may be encouraged by Bob Gordon’s assessment.

Though historically underrepresented in fields related to technology, science, math, and engineering, the tides are beginning to turn.

According to a poll by Cybersecurity Ventures, a global research firm focusing on cyber economies, women are predicted to occupy 30% of cybersecurity positions worldwide by 2025.

Hiring managers are increasingly recognizing the valuable skill sets that women bring to the table, including inventiveness, problem-solving abilities, and resilience. Additionally, the flexibility, compensation, and benefits that come with remote computer-based work are particularly appealing to women.

Tens of thousands of troops on both sides have been killed and wounded. Beyond Ukraine’s borders, the invasion delivered a blow to the global economy, sending prices for everyday items like food and gas skyrocketing.

The conflict is a stark reminder that democracy cannot be taken for granted.
