The authors of the WilmerHale W.I.R.E. blog are delighted to invite you to a talk on all things cybercrime hosted by Daniel Cuthbert (Global Head of Cyber Security at Grupo Banco Santander and convicted hacker) who will share his personal views on the current trends in cybercrime and what the future might hold.

With a hacking career spanning more than 20 years in penetration testing and secure software design, Daniel has seen hackers evolve from curious coders to organised criminals. During the event, he will showcase live just how easy it is for our smartphone* exhaust data to be harvested and used against us by would be cyber attackers. Daniel will also explore what cybercrime typically looks like in practice, how cyber criminals monetise their actions, offer insight into the profile of perpetrators, present and future security threats and how the cybersecurity industry and legislative and regulatory frameworks are likely to respond.

The talk will be followed by a networking reception.

*Only the smartphones of the WilmerHale team will be used for the purposes of the demonstration. Data from guests’ smartphones will not be collected.
