Ethics in the Time of Cyberwar

Over the past few years, the notion of ethics has come up quite a bit within cybersecurity circles. One of the leading voices, has been my colleague, Ivan Kwiatkowski. Earlier this year, he gave a talk called Ethics in Cyberwar Times at the Pass The Salt conference: I sat down with him and Anastasia Kazakova of our public affairs department for a special edition of the Kaspersky Transatlantic Cable podcast to discuss the presentation, as well as: • Ethics: what does this mean in the cyber context? What questions should we ask ourselves? • The concept of attackers paying defenders • The increasing role for inter-state competition, and how such a competition makes the work of researchers harder If you liked what you heard, please do consider subscribing.
