Technology Today's June 2nd Radio Show Addresses Recent Cyber Attacks on Lockheed Martin and PBS

Technology Today’s June 2nd Radio Show Addresses Recent Cyber Attacks on Lockheed Martin and PBS The #1 rated technology talk show on Internet Radio’s host Ajay Gupta & Guests Discuss Growth of the Cybersecurity Industry and its Impact on Education and the Economy

You may have noticed that the issue of Cybersecurity is permanently in the news now. Along with delays on routes to beaches for the official kick-off of summer, better known as Memorial Day weekend, there were several reports a hacker group compromised PBS and issued a story reporting the rapper Tupac is alive and well in New Zealand.  There seems to be a rise in higher profile breaches recently (Lockheed Martin was compromised the previous weekend).  Taken together with word from the Pentagon that a cyber attack may be met with a conventional military response, we have to ask, are we in a ramp up period of a cyber war? 

Technology Today is the #1 rated technology talk show on Internet radio for a rapidly growing worldwide audience of people who are curious about technology and who need an interactive information channel that can help them make sense of how innovations in business and personal technologies are shaping our lives.  This week’s show will discuss, in-depth, the realities of major security attacks at Lockheed Martin and PBS and just how close the hackers came to retrieving classified information. 

Cybersecurity is becoming such a mainstream issue, that many are beginning to consider responding to cybersecurity as a source of growth and economic development, which means we will need to provide the education to develop additional cybersecurity experts. On this week's show, we'll talk with Suresh Balakrishnan, Associate Vice Chancellor and Deputy CIO of the University System of Maryland, who recently released a report on how Maryland's higher education system can improve its cybersecurity educational offerings as well as how the state, as a whole, can leverage the expected growth in this field for economic benefits.

Also, this week, we will be announcing Big News about the show! Tune in and find out more.
