We're in London at the BSides conference chatting to our former colleague Ahana Datta, Head of Cyber Security at the Financial Times newspaper. The first ethical hacker hired in UK Government; Ahana went on to lead the security profession within the civil service, working with the Ministry of Justice, the Foreign Office and the National Cyber Security Centre.We chat about her time doing security for the greater good, the practicalities of securing the prison system in a traditional risk averse culture, and how motivations differ in the private sector. We get Ahana's inside scoop on classic security myths, and why she hates the term 'cyber'.Ahana also shares stories about breaking into cash machines, being mistaken for the intern, and how she manages to 'secret squirrel' on social media. All of this set to a backdrop of RnB classics! We dare you to try and find her anywhere else on the interweb.
