  • The Oldest Con, the Newest Tools | An Interview with Sarah Armstrong-Smith At Infosecurity Europe 2026 | An Analog Brain In A Digital Age With Marco Ciappelli
    2026/06/17
    There is a con called the Spanish Prisoner. A letter arrives from a stranger: a wealthy man sits in a foreign jail, and for a small advance to free him, he will reward you many times over. The trick is at least four hundred years old. It is also, give or take a few details, the email sitting in your spam folder this morning. I keep that in mind whenever someone tells me cybercrime is a technology problem. The tools change. The mark does not. We are still robbed through the same prehistoric wiring: a flash of fear, a moment of greed, a decision made in panic before the slow part of the brain wakes up. That is the thread I pulled on with Sarah Armstrong-Smith at InfoSecurity Europe. Sarah spent nearly thirty years in cyber and crisis leadership, was Chief Security Advisor at Microsoft, and now runs Secure Horizons. She has written two books on the human side of all this and sits on the UK Government Cyber Advisory Board. After all of it, she says the thing most people in her position will not say out loud: whatever we are doing is not working. More tools, more money, more people, more AI, and the problem keeps getting worse. Attack, wake-up call, attack, wake-up call. How many wake-up calls, she asks, does anyone need? I asked what keeps her up at night. She described an industrial accident on the scale of 9/11, triggered through a network: the first time a cyber incident kills people in numbers. We have been lucky so far. She doubts luck is a plan. The industry loves a big number, and the number is exactly where the human disappears. X million records stolen, Y terabytes gone. The day before, my friend Geoff White sat in this same chair and described a ransomware attack that shut down a hospital, which meant a woman missed the cancer appointment she had counted on. That is an Armageddon, and it has a name and a face. Sarah, as it happens, knows Geoff’s work well enough to carry a line from him on the back of her book. The human element keeps finding the same small circle of people willing to talk about it. So how do we move this from a line item to a fact of society? Her answer is collective resilience. There is no prize for being the last one standing, because we are all wired into the same supply chain, the same dependencies, the same brittle web. And the smallest businesses, the ones without a war chest to ride out the storm, are the ones we discuss the least. Then a statistic. Close to half of all crime in the UK is now fraud or cyber. Around one percent of policing is pointed at it. Read those two numbers again. We fund what we can see, and we want officers on the street because a visible patrol both deters the thief and reassures the neighbourhood. The crime that actually empties our accounts happens somewhere we have agreed not to look. Follow the money, Sarah says, and you rarely stop at one criminal’s pocket. It pays for the next thing: drugs, weapons, and more often than people imagine, the trafficking of human beings. Will AI save us? She did not flinch. Whatever you build to detect, the other side uses to evade. The asymmetry holds. Technology is part of the answer and never the whole of it, because the problem was never only technical. So what do we carry forward, and what do we leave behind? We carry the person behind the number: the one who misses the appointment, the small shop that never reopens. We leave behind the fantasy that a clever enough machine will spare us the harder work, which is teaching a whole society to recognize the Spanish Prisoner when it arrives, wearing this year’s technology. Sarah’s books are linked below, with a second edition on the way. Geoff’s conversation is part of this same coverage. And if you want more of these, the newsletter lives at marcociappelli.com.

  • The Art of Standing Out When Everything Sounds the Same | A Music Evolves Conversation with Sam Young, DJ and Producer
    2026/06/15
    Show Notes

    What happens to creativity when every song, sound, and style is a thumb-tap away? Sam Young has spent more than two decades behind the decks in London, and his answer is blunt: originality is at an all-time low. As a DJ, producer, remixer, and founder of the record label WyldCard, he sits at the exact point where taste, technology, and commerce collide, and he sees a culture increasingly content to recycle what already works.

    Sean Martin and Sam Young dig into how algorithms quietly shape what listeners believe they like, and how that pressure reaches the dance floor. Sam Young draws a clear line between a club night, where a crowd shows up hungry for records it has never heard, and a private event, where the real skill is reading a host's taste from the handful of songs they send and still making the room move. The throughline is judgment, the human ear that no recommendation engine has learned to replace.

    The conversation turns to sampling, AI, and the difference between craft and shortcut. Sam Young runs A&R for WyldCard himself, listening to demos every week, and he can hear within seconds when a producer is chasing a trend instead of setting one. His distinction is sharp: taking something obscure and making it feel new is an art, while feeding a recognizable hook into a tool and printing one more cover version is not. He is candid about AI as a cheat code, and just as candid about a near future where producers simply talk to their software and ask for ten options.

    This is not a lament, though. Sam Young points to the rare artists who still cut through precisely because they refuse to sound like everyone else, and to a younger generation quietly rediscovering originality. The optimistic version of the story is the one Sean Martin keeps circling back to: technology at its best clears away the busywork so the mind stays in control of what gets made.

    The question this episode leaves open is whether the tools that make music easier to produce will widen the gap between the familiar and the genuinely new, or finally close it.

  • A Crime Against Time | An Interview with Rik Ferguson | Redefining CyberSecurity With Sean Martin — On Location at InfoSecurity Europe 2026
    2026/06/15
    PODCAST EPISODE | Redefining CyberSecurity With Sean Martin — On Location at InfoSecurity Europe 2026 On Location With Sean Martin And Marco Ciappelli Adversaries are stealing encrypted data today that they cannot read yet, and storing it until a quantum computer can. Sean Martin sat down with Forescout’s Rik Ferguson to talk about “harvest now, decrypt later,” why Q-Day is closer than the comfortable timelines suggest, and what the decisions you make this year have to do with secrets you thought were safe forever. 📺 Watch | 🎙️ Listen | ITSPmagazine.com Somewhere there is a building full of secrets nobody can read yet. That is not a metaphor. The NSA reportedly keeps a facility for storing encrypted data it cannot currently crack, on the assumption that one day it will. It is patient. It is betting on the future. And it is not the only one placing that bet. When Sean Martin sat down with Rik Ferguson at InfoSecurity Europe, the subject was post-quantum cryptography, which sounds like a problem for physicists and a decade away. Ferguson, VP of Security Intelligence at Forescout and a quarter-century veteran of watching threats arrive ahead of schedule, was there to take that comfort away. His keynote title put it politely: post-quantum is a way off, we can wait, can’t we. The honest version is that we can’t. The attack has a name: harvest now, decrypt later. Adversaries steal encrypted data today, knowing it is useless to them, and store it. They are not waiting because they gave up. They are waiting for the key. When a quantum computer can break the encryption we currently trust, every stockpiled file opens at once. NIST pencils that day in around 2035. Google has suggested 2029. IBM’s first fault-tolerant quantum machine is slated for 2029. Pick any date in that window, then look at the equipment your organization is buying this year and ask how long it will still be running. What Ferguson is really describing is a crime against time. Every breach we know how to investigate has a shape. It happened on a date, the intruder moved through the network, and we trace the damage backward from there. Harvest now, decrypt later erases the date. There is no alarm when the data leaves, because nothing visibly breaks. Your first notice that you were robbed a decade ago is the day the contents are used against you. Sean, who likes to pull these conversations back to the business, named the right precedent: Y2K. We remember it as a joke, the planes that never fell out of the sky. It was a non-event precisely because a great many people did an enormous amount of unglamorous work. Ferguson’s warning is that the opposite is happening now. Few people are doing the work, and that is how a non-event turns into an event. There is an unglamorous question underneath all of this: which of your secrets will still matter in ten years? Encrypting everything harder is not the answer, because not everything is worth defending against a decade-late attack. Session tokens decrypted in 2035 are worthless. Clinical trial data, merger plans, sovereign debt strategy, the legal conversations everyone assumed were private forever, those keep their value, and they are worth a stranger’s patience. Ferguson calls the discipline quantum agility: build the systems now so you can swap the locks later. Easy enough in software. Nearly impossible in a medical device still running Windows XP while a regulator finishes signing off the last version. So what do we carry forward, and what do we leave behind? We carry our secrets, whether we want to or not, into a future where the lock on them may not hold. What we have to leave behind is the comfortable belief that encrypted means safe, full stop, forever. Ferguson ends his keynote on an image of a stealth combine harvester, which the AI struggled to draw because nothing like it exists in the training data yet. That is the joke, and also the point. The thing coming for the data is quiet, built to gather, and we have barely pictured it. His next argument, a paper called Assume Autonomy, says it is time to stop assuming breach and start assuming the machines on both sides will run themselves. Sean has already booked the follow-up. Sean’s full conversation with Rik Ferguson is linked below, with the rest of our InfoSecurity Europe coverage.
