CIS Cybersecurity Series (Part 23) – Justin Searle

“I think that people here in India, just like everywhere else, are broadening the areas where security can be applied. We see elsewhere, like in the United States and in Europe, that a lot of security researchers are starting to get into not just control systems, but also embedded devices and hardware and wireless… And we are seeing the same trends here in India as well. It is fun to see that growth and continual development, and not only that, but we are seeing security projects and research coming out of India, thats unqiue and fresh and contributing back to what originally came more from the United States and Europe.”

Centre for Internet and Society presents its twentythird installment of the CIS Cybersecurity Series.

The CIS Cybersecurity Series seeks to address hotlydebated aspects of cybersecurity and hopes to encourage wider public discoursearound the topic.
