Exploring the issue of fighting both cyber and biological viruses: what are the points of connection and similarities?

Sir Rob Wainwright and Lucien Engelen

In this episode, we talk about how responsible businesses can think through rare or unusual incidents in the healthcare space by drawing analogies. Are there similarities in the challenges faced in healthcare on the one hand, and in cybersecurity on the other?

Our host, Sir Rob Wainwright, has decades of experience dealing with international global cyberattacks as the former head of Europol, the EU’s law enforcement agency. He led the establishment of the European Cybercrime Centre, which has become the focal point for all major cybercrime investigations across Europe. Our guest is Lucien Engelen.
