The Commsrisk Show: Security and the Cloud

Famous white hat telecoms hacker Karsten Nohl is our guest for an episode that focuses on the security risks created by migrating telcos and many other businesses on to the cloud. The use of standard cloud technologies like containers can deliver great efficiency and cost savings but they also mean that a hacker who discovers one vulnerability may be able to cause far more harm as a consequence.

Karsten has a track record of discovering and demonstrating unexpected vulnerabilities in GSM and RFID systems. He is the Managing Director and Chief Scientist of his Berlin-based consultancy and think tank, Security Research Labs. Karsten also has experience working as a telecoms CISO for leading Asian operators Jio and Axiata.

Topical news items are also debated by the show’s three regular presenters, industry analyst Ed Finegold, senior risk executive Lee Scargall, and the Editor of Commsrisk, Eric Priezkalns.
