Episode notes

With almost everything we do nowadays taking place on-line, Tom Heap asks just how secure cyberspace is to users. He discovers how the 'internet of things' has evolved into the 'industrial internet of things', transforming the way we live our lives, taking technology beyond the public domain and into the wider realms of transport, energy, manufacturing and infrastructure and looking at ways in which the technology links up. With the on-line world dominating our lives Tom discusses with an expert panel the various ways we can safeguard our world and our data.

Tom is joined by a panel of world renowned experts: 

Sadie Creese, a professor of cyber security in the Department of Computer Science, Oxford.

Robert Hannigan, former director general of GC HQ, the UK's intelligence and security agency, from 2014 to 2017. He also set up the National Cyber Security Centre in 2016. 

Roland Johnson, founder of Nettitude which is now the cybersecurity division of the Lloyds Register Group.
