A hacker's guide to changing the world
Of the massive number of brilliant and skillful ethical hackers working their eyes out to fight back against cybercrimes, only a few could remove the blinkers and realize the importance of fixing the areas where bits and bytes meet flesh and blood. That's why the world needs more people like Joshua Corman, a true cybersecurity visionary, not because he predicted things like cyber terrorism but because he realized and preached the importance of authenticity, collective action, and human connection in driving positive change decades ago.
