ADE 2018: The Ethical Hacker makes his way to ADE


Raise your awareness of the risks, especially the ones we do not know about, during sessions at ADE Tech and ADE University.

Ralph Echemendia, better known as The Ethical Hacker, will be taking an objective, in-depth look at the realities of cybersecurity at ADE Tech in the keynote Digital Realities - How Safe Are We? The world is currently awash with news stories about hackers, the vulnerability of cryptocurrencies and online identity theft, making this a topic for many people who find themselves using technologies every day that at the same time could be making them vulnerable to attack. 

On top of that, he will be looking at the psychological impact of worries about the speed of deployment of technologies such as artificial intelligence, the internet of things and mediated reality. These technologies tend to be an evolution that will help society, but also shapes a source of anxiety because these technologies may create profound vulnerabilities.

The Ethical Hacker is an acknowledged expert when it comes to raising the awareness of the risks, especially the ones we do not know about. His talk will address these hugely important subjects and much more. ADE Tech is organized in partnership with Paylogic and in co-operation with Paradiso

Next to his appearance at ADE Tech, the Ethical Hacker will take part at ADE University on Friday, October 19th. There, he will talk to the students about how he ended up in this business and about some of the cases he has been working on.
