The Threat They're Not Watching: Signal Intelligence with Hanna Linderstål
"Every organization I've tested — I've always found a way in." That's not a hacker bragging.That's Hanna Linderstål — a cybersecurity strategist, who teaches digital espionage at the Swedish Defence University, and is one of Europe's most respected voices on autonomous defense. She started coding at 11. No internet. Just a modem, a phone line, and curiosity that never stopped. In our latest SecurIT episode, she said something that should keep every CISO up at night:"Most organizations are defensive in posture and delusional in practice." We talked about: The signal intelligence blind spot almost no company is watching Why more data ≠ better security (it's just noise without context) The OODA loop what the military knows about crisis response that your board doesn't How a spy was caught downloading files at midnight on a Saturday — and why your systems wouldn't have caught him either Why the next pandemic might not be biological it might be three weeks without internet The most uncomfortable quote of the episode?"I have never found an organization where we didn't find a potential risk we could exploit. Not one." If you're in security, leadership, or you just rely on the internet to run your business — this one's for you.
