Denial of Trust: The New Attacks

Presented at THOTCON 0x9 (2018), May 4, 2018, 4 p.m. (50 minutes).

As our software goes, so goes our society. From the biases we inject into algorithms, to flawed security trust models in our architecture, to “dark patterns” in design, to social platforms abused for propaganda, we are vulnerable to trust-based attacks. In order to fight these micro- and macro-level vulnerabilities, we need to rethink our steps all along the way.
