The internet is getting more powerful, and less secure. And with the rise of “smart” technology, everything is essentially a computer: phones, cars, beds, homes, planes, power plants, and even cities. We’re heading into uncharted technological territory, where life and property are just as vulnerable as privacy and data.

In his latest book, Click Here to Kill Everybody: Security and Survival in a Hyper-connected World, Bruce Schneier—one of our most provocative and authoritative voices on cybersecurity—lays out some of the unsettling issues we’re facing today, and puts forth some bold, innovative solutions.

Join us for a fascinating conversation with Schneier, together with Darren Walker and Manoush Zomorodi, as they discuss the risks that come with the latest technology—and what we can do to respond.

Bruce is part of a larger community that wants to see technology serve the greater welfare of society. We call this #PublicInterestTech! Explore more in the video above.
