Security of the Future
What the security world will look like in five to ten years: AI, robotics, drones, biometrics, quantum technology, digital identity.
A desk about how technology creates protection and threat at the same time. A drone guards a perimeter — and becomes a means of intrusion. Biometrics removes passwords — and makes a leak irreversible: a password can be changed, a face cannot.
We look at consequences rather than gadgets: what a new technology changes in the threat model, what a security service should prepare for, and which rights of the individual it touches.
