Show Notes
“I started Hack the Plant in August 2020, driven by a deep conviction that we need to do something about the problem of critical infrastructure assurance: from education to action. Over 4 years and 40 episodes, we’ve hosted industry giants and practitioners, members of Congress and policymakers, and hackers and scientists; because with technology it’s the people, those on the front-lines that are making the difference.” - Bryson Bort
Bryson closes out season four with a look back at the work we’ve done so far.
