WCCO AM 830 with Cory Hepola, Wednesday, March 3, 2021; Deepfake Viral Lies and Chinese Cyberattacks

Deepfake Viral Lies and Chinese zero day attacks on WCCO AM 830 with Cory Hepola, Wednesday, March 3, 2021

Somebody made a deepfake video with a near-perfect Tom Cruise imitation, and the Chinese found a nasty zero day exploit with Microsoft Exchange. Which means I need to patch my Exchange email server. Again. Patch management never stops.

How do we protect against deepfake videos and social media disinformation? I tangled with a small viral lie up-close and personal in 2019. The whole world tangled with big viral lies in 2020. We are in the middle of the biggest information war the world has ever seen. How do we navigate this new terrain?

Enjoy the audio. It’s not a deepfake; it really is Cory and me.
