Brent has made mindful innovation the focus of his career. He is an avid maker, an information security professional and a Cyber Operations Veteran. His military career has included serving as a research scientist at the Army Cyber Institute and, more recently, as Project Manager at the Army’s Defense Unit Experimental. (And congratulations to him–he just started a new position in information security at Apple, according to his LinkedIn profile!)
We met Brent at the 2016 Sensors Expo, in San Jose, where he gave a presentation on the security considerations to keep in mind, while creating disruptive technology.
As we honor our veterans, here is our rebroadcast of our March 2017 Over Coffee® interview with Brent, about security considerations for makers and innovators.
On this edition of Over Coffee®, you’ll hear:
-
How Brent first became a maker during his growing-up years;
-
The pitfalls he sees in the “maker mindset” that could compromise security;
-
The challenges of creating safeguards fof the Internet or other innovations in a connected world;
-
What considerations makers might want to keep in mind, when connecting to the Internet of Things;
-
The security safeguards Brent uses in his own home;
-
One of his most fun recent maker projects, for his young son;
-
Some of Brent’s favorite maker resources;
