In this episode, we decrypt cybersecurity on the silver screen. Dissecting iconic scenes, debunking common myths, and exploring the real-world consequences of Hollywood’s cyber narratives. From realistic depictions of hacking in “Mr. Robot” to Lex’s not-so-implausible 3D UNIX system interface in “Jurassic Park,” we’ll separate fact from fiction and examine the impact these portrayals have had on public perception and awareness.

My guest today is Dan Meacham, Vice President of Security Operations for Legendary Entertainment.
