Kaspersky CEO Eugene Kaspersky speaks with Edie Lush at Hub Davos 3006 views
Eugene Kaspersky tells Hub Culture's Executive Editor Edie Lush that while we understand the threat cyber criminals present to our personal data - stealing our identity and bank account information - we don't yet understand the threat we face from cyber terrorism, namely the ability of malware to take down a country's military or nuclear facility.
Digital data & computer systems now drive the world's economy. Computers are everywhere - from controlling our water supply to our elevators. While governments are aware of the dangers of cyber crime & are working together to help prevent cyber criminals, the threat from cyber weapons are not yet widely understood. Part of Iran's nuclear facility was physically destroyed by a malware program last year, possibly by another government.
Kaspersky's message is that we need to take this threat more seriously. He says that cyber terrorism is a boomerang - once you attack someone with a cyber weapon, they understand how to attack you back. We need global agreements against cyber weapons, just as we do on nuclear weapons.
