Hosted by our co-founder, Bryson Bort.
In Hack the Plan[e]t, podcast host Bryson Bort looks for answers to the question: does connecting these systems to the internet leave us more vulnerable to attacks by our enemies?
We often take these critical infrastructure systems for granted, but they're all becoming increasingly dependent on the internet to function. From the ransomware threats of Colonial Pipeline to the failure of the Texas power grid, it is clear our interconnectivity is also a significant source of risk. Hack the Plan[e]t walks through the world of hackers working on the front lines of cyber security and public safety to protect the systems you rely upon every day.
Brought to you by ICS Village and the Institute for Security and Technology. Monthly series: top 5% globally.
Three recent conversations from the front lines of critical-infrastructure security.
Bryson Bort opens Season 6 with three guests: a recap of the biggest moments from Critical Effect DC '26, a preview of Critical Effect CA as the OT/ICS workforce gathers in Sacramento, and a walkthrough of the Intelligence-Driven Active Defense Report.
