Ah, and I ordered many pizzas, 142 00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:46,680 Speaker 2: which I still pay for to this day. And that's 143 00:06:46,720 --> 00:06:49,040 Speaker 2: how I eventually got busted. I got so blase because 144 00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:51,240 Speaker 2: it was so long after the crime that nothing happened. 145 00:06:51,279 --> 00:06:53,080 Speaker 2: I was starting to order pizzas to my own house, 146 00:06:53,160 --> 00:06:54,240 Speaker 2: to my friend's houses. 147 00:06:54,440 --> 00:06:57,120 Speaker 1: So these were credit cards that didn't have people attached 148 00:06:57,160 --> 00:06:58,159 Speaker 1: to them yet, correct. 149 00:06:58,240 --> 00:07:00,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, so you could activate them and just use the number. 150 00:07:01,520 --> 00:07:04,080 Speaker 2: It was pretty cool.

Don't do that kids. 152 00:07:07,080 --> 00:07:09,920 Speaker 1: And how long was that before you got access to 153 00:07:09,960 --> 00:07:13,720 Speaker 1: this and then when you got caught about. 154 00:07:13,680 --> 00:07:15,760 Speaker 2: Three nearly four years? Jeez? 155 00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:17,720 Speaker 1: So how old were you? Did you say? 156 00:07:17,720 --> 00:07:19,640 Speaker 2: When I was around fourteen when I started to play 157 00:07:19,640 --> 00:07:23,160 Speaker 2: with computers, I was a really curious kid, and I 158 00:07:23,200 --> 00:07:24,840 Speaker 2: sort of got mentored a little bit by a few 159 00:07:24,840 --> 00:07:28,240 Speaker 2: people online, and some of them went to jail. I 160 00:07:28,320 --> 00:07:30,400 Speaker 2: managed to avoid jail. It just did community service. 161 00:07:30,760 --> 00:07:33,200 Speaker 1: So how did it start with you getting gifted a 162 00:07:33,240 --> 00:07:37,520 Speaker 1: computer to then getting into this world of internet hacking? 163 00:07:37,880 --> 00:07:39,680 Speaker 1: How do you progress from that where you just you 164 00:07:39,720 --> 00:07:40,880 Speaker 1: said you're curious. 165 00:07:40,760 --> 00:07:44,240 Speaker 2: Super curious, like, for example, you cannot imagine how much 166 00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:46,880 Speaker 2: of a little crap I was to my parents.

So there was a gap between my 169 00:07:51,640 --> 00:07:54,880 Speaker 2: parents coming home and me finishing school, and I got 170 00:07:54,920 --> 00:07:59,559 Speaker 2: their entire alcohol collection rang up all these universities, learnt 171 00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:02,520 Speaker 2: through these universities how to remove alcohol from alcohol, and 172 00:08:02,760 --> 00:08:06,200 Speaker 2: blended their entire like fifteen year wine collection into a 173 00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:09,600 Speaker 2: boiler and condensed all the alcohol out of this and 174 00:08:09,640 --> 00:08:12,360 Speaker 2: then poured it all back. Is a nice rose set 175 00:08:12,360 --> 00:08:14,720 Speaker 2: the house on fire at the same time as well. Anyway, 176 00:08:14,720 --> 00:08:15,600 Speaker 2: they were not stoked. 177 00:08:15,760 --> 00:08:17,640 Speaker 1: So you were what they call in the industry a 178 00:08:17,720 --> 00:08:18,520 Speaker 1: little shit. 179 00:08:18,440 --> 00:08:20,600 Speaker 2: A little shit, Yeah, I was one hundred cent shoff's 180 00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:21,080 Speaker 2: a llwed to swear. 181 00:08:21,600 --> 00:08:24,680 Speaker 1: Oh no you can, You're okay, Hey, this is how 182 00:08:24,760 --> 00:08:27,960 Speaker 1: genius has happened. I've seen the movies, I've read the documentaries. 183 00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:30,200 Speaker 1: No I haven't. That's not even a sentence, but I 184 00:08:30,280 --> 00:08:32,960 Speaker 1: get it. Okay. So you were very curious and then 185 00:08:33,080 --> 00:08:35,040 Speaker 1: you get a computer. I guess you do all the 186 00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:36,520 Speaker 1: normal things that people do on a computer, and then 187 00:08:36,559 --> 00:08:37,640 Speaker 1: you go, well, what else can I do with it? 188 00:08:37,720 --> 00:08:39,840 Speaker 2: This is a tool, Well, how does it work, right, 189 00:08:40,040 --> 00:08:42,079 Speaker 2: how did the banks work, how did businesses work? And 190 00:08:42,200 --> 00:08:44,320 Speaker 2: then you know, there was it was a long time er, right, 191 00:08:44,360 --> 00:08:46,560 Speaker 2: it was like ninety nine, six ninety seven. I'm showing 192 00:08:46,600 --> 00:08:49,559 Speaker 2: my age now. So there was these communities online and 193 00:08:49,640 --> 00:08:51,199 Speaker 2: I was, you know, you'd never believe it, but I 194 00:08:51,280 --> 00:08:54,160 Speaker 2: was a bit teased at school being a nerd, and yeah, 195 00:08:54,200 --> 00:08:56,760 Speaker 2: these people online were like, hey, welcome to this new world, 196 00:08:56,840 --> 00:08:58,800 Speaker 2: and they were to me it was exciting. Like I 197 00:08:58,880 --> 00:09:01,440 Speaker 2: recently got to meet Kevin Mitnick. He's a famous hack, 198 00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:03,560 Speaker 2: probably one of the most famous hackers before he passed away. 199 00:09:04,080 --> 00:09:06,960 Speaker 2: But yeah, it was cool to hang around with those people. 200 00:09:07,160 --> 00:09:10,439 Speaker 2: We broke into satellites, banks, other businesses that I was 201 00:09:10,480 --> 00:09:13,880 Speaker 2: never convicted for. But yeah, I'm pretty sure the statute 202 00:09:13,920 --> 00:09:15,920 Speaker 2: of limitations is over on that. In fact, I now. 203 00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:18,840 Speaker 1: Work with your late nineteen hundred. So yeah, you know exactly, 204 00:09:18,880 --> 00:09:21,199 Speaker 1: it's all right. We've moved into the next century. Because 205 00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:23,000 Speaker 1: I think back to my first arm in a computer 206 00:09:23,160 --> 00:09:24,839 Speaker 1: and I used to be the one that all the 207 00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:27,640 Speaker 1: teachers used to call in to like do the computer 208 00:09:27,720 --> 00:09:29,719 Speaker 1: things for them, Like I got like an announcement of 209 00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:33,079 Speaker 1: the thing that pa being like, oh, Gonzonzo come and 210 00:09:33,160 --> 00:09:35,199 Speaker 1: help in five A and da da Dad was me 211 00:09:35,280 --> 00:09:36,640 Speaker 1: to go and setup the protective for them, or. 212 00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:37,360 Speaker 2: Do this or do that? 213 00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:40,480 Speaker 1: So I was really interested, but then the technology evolved 214 00:09:40,760 --> 00:09:43,320 Speaker 1: way too fast in my skill set. 215 00:09:43,640 --> 00:09:45,439 Speaker 2: How did you keep ahead with it or ahead of it? 216 00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:48,280 Speaker 2: Like so that's the worst thing about this industry, right, 217 00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:51,000 Speaker 2: You've constantly got to learn. It's just like now with AI, 218 00:09:51,160 --> 00:09:53,319 Speaker 2: it's a whole new thing to learn. Yeah, so I 219 00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:57,880 Speaker 2: don't know. I just was just stupidly continuously just learning, learning, learning, NonStop. 220 00:09:58,120 --> 00:10:01,600 Speaker 1: So whose decision is it? Does hack into the bank? 221 00:10:01,920 --> 00:10:05,080 Speaker 2: I use this old net bios hack like won't get 222 00:10:05,120 --> 00:10:07,240 Speaker 2: too techy, but essentially managed to get in with this 223 00:10:07,320 --> 00:10:09,440 Speaker 2: net biass hack. And then it was more about how 224 00:10:09,480 --> 00:10:10,839 Speaker 2: does this work? How does this work? And then I'm like, 225 00:10:10,840 --> 00:10:12,400 Speaker 2: oh my god, that's how they connect to Visa, that's 226 00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:14,360 Speaker 2: how they connect to master Guard. And then can I 227 00:10:14,440 --> 00:10:16,120 Speaker 2: get a credit card? How does that work? Can you 228 00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:17,599 Speaker 2: use a credit cardinal? But it was all just like 229 00:10:17,720 --> 00:10:20,079 Speaker 2: can you can? You? Can you? And there was a 230 00:10:20,120 --> 00:10:21,880 Speaker 2: bit of bragging about it as well, so you know, 231 00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:23,439 Speaker 2: and you're in the community like guess what, I'm just 232 00:10:23,520 --> 00:10:26,240 Speaker 2: like fully into the ma Remula Conwalk Bank branch here 233 00:10:26,280 --> 00:10:27,040 Speaker 2: and they're. 234 00:10:26,880 --> 00:10:29,440 Speaker 1: Like, what, that's a good thing to touch on too, 235 00:10:29,559 --> 00:10:32,079 Speaker 1: is the community aspect of it, because there is a 236 00:10:32,120 --> 00:10:34,120 Speaker 1: full community out there, and it's really easy to engage 237 00:10:34,160 --> 00:10:36,440 Speaker 1: and to talk to people, and you build a lot 238 00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:38,360 Speaker 1: of friendships that way. I remember I used to be 239 00:10:38,400 --> 00:10:40,400 Speaker 1: on forums, used to be in little little minus a 240 00:10:40,480 --> 00:10:42,600 Speaker 1: teen forums. Is like a young little gay person being 241 00:10:42,640 --> 00:10:44,160 Speaker 1: able to talk to other people like me or like 242 00:10:44,520 --> 00:10:47,800 Speaker 1: throughout the country and realize that, you know, I've got 243 00:10:47,840 --> 00:10:49,360 Speaker 1: other friends out there that are interested in the same 244 00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:52,640 Speaker 1: things that you are, So I can understand how those 245 00:10:52,679 --> 00:10:57,720 Speaker 1: communities build and then become passionate and then also competitive. 246 00:10:58,040 --> 00:11:00,480 Speaker 2: Yes, definitely, And it was I mean, we didn't think 247 00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:03,439 Speaker 2: we were doing anything that wrong, Like we even let 248 00:11:03,600 --> 00:11:05,640 Speaker 2: this well I'm allowed to say now. So I spoke 249 00:11:05,679 --> 00:11:08,400 Speaker 2: at south By Southwest for the Commonwealth Bank and I 250 00:11:08,480 --> 00:11:10,640 Speaker 2: got to meet some of the arresting offices from the AFP. 251 00:11:10,760 --> 00:11:12,880 Speaker 2: I now work with the AFP to help children. So 252 00:11:12,960 --> 00:11:16,319 Speaker 2: it's all come full circle. Hey, But yeah, it was. 253 00:11:16,840 --> 00:11:17,959 Speaker 2: It was an interesting time. 254 00:11:18,559 --> 00:11:22,199 Speaker 1: So you bought some pizzas with many credit card information 255 00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:25,640 Speaker 1: and money? What else did you buy anything anything fun 256 00:11:25,800 --> 00:11:26,319 Speaker 1: or notable. 257 00:11:26,679 --> 00:11:29,120 Speaker 2: No, I was kind of aware that it was sort 258 00:11:29,160 --> 00:11:31,520 Speaker 2: of wrong. I think I paid for some textbooks and 259 00:11:31,640 --> 00:11:33,959 Speaker 2: education in pizzas, and I was about it. I should 260 00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:35,360 Speaker 2: have bought more cool stuff. But I feel like I 261 00:11:35,360 --> 00:11:36,120 Speaker 2: would have gone to jail. 262 00:11:36,280 --> 00:11:39,080 Speaker 1: Oh true. I guess when they tally up all the pizzas, 263 00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:41,760 Speaker 1: they're like, look, how long did you get in your 264 00:11:41,800 --> 00:11:42,520 Speaker 1: community service? 265 00:11:42,760 --> 00:11:44,520 Speaker 2: So I had to one hundred and fifty hours, so 266 00:11:44,679 --> 00:11:47,280 Speaker 2: get this right. So I met so the lady that 267 00:11:47,320 --> 00:11:49,080 Speaker 2: I work with in the reboot program. We get all 268 00:11:49,080 --> 00:11:51,400 Speaker 2: these kids who are little delinquents and we get them 269 00:11:51,400 --> 00:11:53,839 Speaker 2: placed in the industry. And if I'd done the crime 270 00:11:53,880 --> 00:11:56,240 Speaker 2: that I did back then, now, I probably would have 271 00:11:56,280 --> 00:11:57,280 Speaker 2: got ten plus years. 272 00:11:57,440 --> 00:12:00,000 Speaker 1: Well, it's going to say, it's like the knowledge around 273 00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:02,360 Speaker 1: and all of this as well has progressed, and it's 274 00:12:02,800 --> 00:12:04,120 Speaker 1: I don't know, it's seen. It's like a bit more 275 00:12:04,120 --> 00:12:05,720 Speaker 1: of an intense thing to happen. 276 00:12:05,920 --> 00:12:08,600 Speaker 2: Yeah. Well, there there was only three people that worked 277 00:12:08,600 --> 00:12:10,800 Speaker 2: in the cyber department when I got done. I got 278 00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:13,680 Speaker 2: to meet one of them. That was incredible. And yeah, 279 00:12:13,760 --> 00:12:16,959 Speaker 2: now it's properly listed as a crime. It's its own 280 00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:19,079 Speaker 2: subsection of the law and it's yeah, you get in 281 00:12:19,160 --> 00:12:19,760 Speaker 2: a lot of trouble. 282 00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:22,520 Speaker 1: So what's the situation about you being caught? Because you know, 283 00:12:22,559 --> 00:12:23,800 Speaker 1: how did it happen. Did they run in and go 284 00:12:24,280 --> 00:12:26,760 Speaker 1: I stopped to get off the computer or did they 285 00:12:26,880 --> 00:12:29,080 Speaker 1: just call everything like hey, are you stealing money? What's 286 00:12:29,080 --> 00:12:29,319 Speaker 1: going on? 287 00:12:29,600 --> 00:12:32,120 Speaker 2: No? Look, I wouldn't recommend it to anyone. Yeah, it's 288 00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:34,280 Speaker 2: not a nice thing for parents to go through. My 289 00:12:34,440 --> 00:12:36,559 Speaker 2: parents had a whole bunch of horrible stuff go through 290 00:12:36,600 --> 00:12:39,480 Speaker 2: with police. If anyone who's thinking about being a hacker 291 00:12:39,520 --> 00:12:41,560 Speaker 2: as a kid, a you'd go to jail. So don't 292 00:12:41,600 --> 00:12:44,480 Speaker 2: do it. But yeah, it's pretty brutal on your family, 293 00:12:44,679 --> 00:12:47,800 Speaker 2: Like they the police. You're a kid, remember, right, So 294 00:12:47,880 --> 00:12:50,040 Speaker 2: they police have this pretty genuine way of making you 295 00:12:50,120 --> 00:12:53,439 Speaker 2: think like you're probably going to die this afternoon. Everything 296 00:12:53,480 --> 00:12:55,080 Speaker 2: in your life is over. Do you think you're going 297 00:12:55,160 --> 00:12:57,040 Speaker 2: to finish school? No, you're not. Do you think you're 298 00:12:57,040 --> 00:12:58,959 Speaker 2: going to keep going to university? Not happening? Do you 299 00:12:59,000 --> 00:13:01,240 Speaker 2: think you can ever get a again? Like, you need 300 00:13:01,320 --> 00:13:04,400 Speaker 2: to tell us exactly what happens right now? And then 301 00:13:04,440 --> 00:13:06,240 Speaker 2: you've watched every police show and you know in your 302 00:13:06,240 --> 00:13:09,400 Speaker 2: head as a little teenager. You're like, don't talk if 303 00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:10,960 Speaker 2: you say if you don't say anything, you'll be fine. 304 00:13:10,960 --> 00:13:13,480 Speaker 2: And that doesn't go down so well either. Uh, and 305 00:13:13,600 --> 00:13:17,040 Speaker 2: then you know you got crying parents and disappointed relatives 306 00:13:17,160 --> 00:13:20,040 Speaker 2: and yeah, I remember kind of after they like come 307 00:13:20,120 --> 00:13:22,920 Speaker 2: and get you or did they call you in or yeah, 308 00:13:22,960 --> 00:13:24,959 Speaker 2: they kind of got us. Yeah, yeah, absolutely, And I 309 00:13:25,120 --> 00:13:26,840 Speaker 2: was like like a proper little shit. 310 00:13:27,200 --> 00:13:29,319 Speaker 1: Well, I think one thing I'm learning from today is 311 00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:32,040 Speaker 1: that the growth that you've had is impeccable. 312 00:13:32,520 --> 00:13:34,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, a fine an upstanding citizen there. Yeah, that's Oh 313 00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:37,439 Speaker 2: my god. Did your parents have any idea or was 314 00:13:37,480 --> 00:13:40,480 Speaker 2: this No? I think it's really similar to now. Right, 315 00:13:40,559 --> 00:13:42,480 Speaker 2: So my parents thought I was clever on the computer. 316 00:13:42,520 --> 00:13:44,600 Speaker 2: I didn't really it was going on. There's a case 317 00:13:44,640 --> 00:13:47,320 Speaker 2: of a kid here in Fine, North Queensland who wanted 318 00:13:47,360 --> 00:13:49,960 Speaker 2: to pay off his mum's mortgage, got groomed online by 319 00:13:50,040 --> 00:13:53,640 Speaker 2: Russian hackers taught him to hack stole twenty two million 320 00:13:53,720 --> 00:13:56,640 Speaker 2: US dollars recently. He's now doing twenty five years in 321 00:13:56,679 --> 00:13:59,520 Speaker 2: a state penitentiary prison in California, which is horrible. Right, 322 00:13:59,679 --> 00:14:01,560 Speaker 2: And he's parents, when they were interviewed, were the same 323 00:14:01,679 --> 00:14:03,360 Speaker 2: like we just thought he was a clever kid. We 324 00:14:03,440 --> 00:14:05,840 Speaker 2: had no idea and his motive was so pure as well, 325 00:14:05,960 --> 00:14:08,880 Speaker 2: right to pay off his mum's mortgage. So parents out there, 326 00:14:09,480 --> 00:14:11,120 Speaker 2: go and sit on roadblocks, and go and sit on 327 00:14:11,200 --> 00:14:15,760 Speaker 2: Minecraft because there's some hectic stuff going on there coming up. 328 00:14:15,840 --> 00:14:19,000 Speaker 1: Bastian explains to us exactly what hackers are up to 329 00:14:19,200 --> 00:14:22,840 Speaker 1: these days and how you can protect yourself. Oh and 330 00:14:23,040 --> 00:14:25,400 Speaker 1: I try to hack into my MySpace account using three 331 00:14:25,440 --> 00:14:32,800 Speaker 1: little tips from Bastian. Oh all right, so we're here 332 00:14:32,840 --> 00:14:37,840 Speaker 1: with Batscian, the ex convicted criminal hacker, former bad guy 333 00:14:38,040 --> 00:14:40,840 Speaker 1: turned good guy. I want to know what a hacker 334 00:14:40,880 --> 00:14:42,760 Speaker 1: is exactly up to these days, what's going on, how 335 00:14:42,840 --> 00:14:43,480 Speaker 1: have they advanced? 336 00:14:43,520 --> 00:14:45,840 Speaker 2: It's terrifying, right, So I actually go and get to 337 00:14:45,960 --> 00:14:48,920 Speaker 2: meet some of these hackers in Asia, and one of 338 00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:52,160 Speaker 2: them told me recently, goes, I'm winning with my slowest 339 00:14:52,240 --> 00:14:55,080 Speaker 2: racehorse at the moment. I'm not giving away the capabilities 340 00:14:55,120 --> 00:14:57,520 Speaker 2: that I have because once I show my capabilities, then 341 00:14:57,520 --> 00:15:01,240 Speaker 2: the defenses arise. So their AI based tools. For example, 342 00:15:01,400 --> 00:15:03,440 Speaker 2: there's a lot of bank accounts in Australia. People transfer 343 00:15:03,480 --> 00:15:05,280 Speaker 2: money out of the bank accounts with an SMS code. 344 00:15:05,560 --> 00:15:08,440 Speaker 2: If you send money to someone else. Right, if you 345 00:15:08,640 --> 00:15:10,720 Speaker 2: use that method to approve a transfer, I can take 346 00:15:10,760 --> 00:15:12,400 Speaker 2: all the money out of your bank account right now. 347 00:15:13,040 --> 00:15:15,400 Speaker 2: So I would urge you to move to an app base. 348 00:15:15,520 --> 00:15:18,160 Speaker 2: So if you're bank with someone whoever you do, make 349 00:15:18,200 --> 00:15:20,360 Speaker 2: sure that they use the app to authorize the code, 350 00:15:20,880 --> 00:15:23,440 Speaker 2: because otherwise, yeah, you're sitting duck. You should go and 351 00:15:23,560 --> 00:15:25,640 Speaker 2: find out what people know about you in the dark web. 352 00:15:25,840 --> 00:15:28,600 Speaker 2: I've got this cool little dark web. Yeah, let's get 353 00:15:28,600 --> 00:15:31,000 Speaker 2: in the dark web. Oh that's fine, Yeah, there's some 354 00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:33,560 Speaker 2: dodgy stuff there, but no, Like, I've built this little 355 00:15:33,560 --> 00:15:35,920 Speaker 2: AI app and it goes and finds everything about you. Right, 356 00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:38,520 Speaker 2: so I could find out where you used to live, 357 00:15:38,640 --> 00:15:41,720 Speaker 2: your pets, names, your football teams, your old passwords in 358 00:15:41,760 --> 00:15:43,360 Speaker 2: the dark web, and it gives me this a four 359 00:15:43,440 --> 00:15:45,160 Speaker 2: sheet and then I get it to delete all the 360 00:15:45,240 --> 00:15:47,520 Speaker 2: keys on a keyboard that aren't relevant to you. And 361 00:15:47,560 --> 00:15:49,920 Speaker 2: then I put those keys together and I can usually 362 00:15:49,960 --> 00:15:53,520 Speaker 2: guess most people's passwords. Exclamation mark doesn't cut it anymore. 363 00:15:54,200 --> 00:15:55,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, damn it. 364 00:15:56,480 --> 00:15:58,520 Speaker 2: And it's bonkers, like how effective it is? 365 00:15:59,360 --> 00:16:02,240 Speaker 1: So on you mentioned grooming and that it can be 366 00:16:02,400 --> 00:16:04,280 Speaker 1: you know, the parents should be watching it. For their 367 00:16:04,320 --> 00:16:08,120 Speaker 1: kids at the moment, because like roadblocks, minecraft is that 368 00:16:08,160 --> 00:16:10,440 Speaker 1: where people can access your kids to chat to them, 369 00:16:10,720 --> 00:16:11,800 Speaker 1: and they should be worried about that. 370 00:16:12,240 --> 00:16:14,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, big time, So like this will be a typical process. 371 00:16:15,280 --> 00:16:17,480 Speaker 2: So the criminals are now using AI to groom the kids, 372 00:16:17,520 --> 00:16:19,800 Speaker 2: and they're just like pre canned questions that the AI know. 373 00:16:20,080 --> 00:16:21,800 Speaker 2: So this is not your chat GPT. This is an 374 00:16:21,840 --> 00:16:24,200 Speaker 2: evil version of AI, and they're terrifying what they can do. 375 00:16:24,800 --> 00:16:27,120 Speaker 2: In fact, I honestly reckon the next fifteen years, Like 376 00:16:27,200 --> 00:16:28,680 Speaker 2: buckle your seat belts because there's going to be some 377 00:16:28,720 --> 00:16:31,000 Speaker 2: weird shit going on. But yeah, so what they'll do 378 00:16:31,120 --> 00:16:32,720 Speaker 2: is I go, hey, do you hate school? And every 379 00:16:32,800 --> 00:16:34,560 Speaker 2: kid probably hits school, and like, do you want to 380 00:16:34,640 --> 00:16:38,120 Speaker 2: like hack your grades? And most kids will go no, no, 381 00:16:38,200 --> 00:16:39,880 Speaker 2: I know that's wrong, but a certain percentage of the 382 00:16:39,920 --> 00:16:41,400 Speaker 2: kids will be like yeah, In fact, I know I 383 00:16:41,440 --> 00:16:44,600 Speaker 2: would have said yeah. So they'll they'll get these ais 384 00:16:44,760 --> 00:16:47,640 Speaker 2: to figure out who is a likely good candidate. So 385 00:16:47,760 --> 00:16:50,000 Speaker 2: no human interaction yet, but the kid thinks they're talking 386 00:16:50,040 --> 00:16:53,280 Speaker 2: to a human and once they tick a certain amount 387 00:16:53,280 --> 00:16:56,480 Speaker 2: of boxes, like maybe some anger and they're really clever, right, 388 00:16:56,560 --> 00:16:59,600 Speaker 2: these AIS can pick up on psychology. They can pick 389 00:16:59,680 --> 00:17:02,080 Speaker 2: up on different feelings that the kids have and then 390 00:17:02,080 --> 00:17:03,680 Speaker 2: that'll get moved to a real human, and then real 391 00:17:03,760 --> 00:17:05,800 Speaker 2: human will prompt them, let's do a little crime together. 392 00:17:06,240 --> 00:17:07,800 Speaker 2: Let's do a little bit more, let's do a bit more. 393 00:17:07,840 --> 00:17:10,760 Speaker 1: So they can literally train these kids to big hackers. 394 00:17:10,920 --> 00:17:13,000 Speaker 1: And what work for them help them out, is that 395 00:17:13,119 --> 00:17:14,119 Speaker 1: the idea it's. 396 00:17:14,080 --> 00:17:16,959 Speaker 2: Much easier to hack an organization to be physically here. Right, 397 00:17:17,080 --> 00:17:20,159 Speaker 2: So organizations in Australia getting better and better at blocking 398 00:17:20,200 --> 00:17:23,280 Speaker 2: out remote attacks. So now they're relying on picking up 399 00:17:23,320 --> 00:17:25,280 Speaker 2: the phone. So they need someone with an Australian accent. 400 00:17:25,680 --> 00:17:28,080 Speaker 2: Well now AI's kind of taken over that with deep fakes. 401 00:17:28,119 --> 00:17:31,200 Speaker 2: But yeah, they need a kid who can literally potentially 402 00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:33,240 Speaker 2: go and get a job and they'll groom them over years. 403 00:17:33,720 --> 00:17:36,159 Speaker 2: They might say, hey, well we'll pay you money to 404 00:17:36,240 --> 00:17:37,920 Speaker 2: go and get a job at this corporation as a 405 00:17:37,960 --> 00:17:39,639 Speaker 2: clean and we'll post you some things and all you 406 00:17:39,640 --> 00:17:41,320 Speaker 2: got to do is plug in this USB drive into 407 00:17:41,359 --> 00:17:43,399 Speaker 2: a print or back of a monitor or whatever it 408 00:17:43,520 --> 00:17:45,680 Speaker 2: might be. And these kids end up taking the fall 409 00:17:45,760 --> 00:17:45,920 Speaker 2: for it. 410 00:17:46,119 --> 00:17:48,680 Speaker 1: I don't know about that. I don't like that. 411 00:17:49,480 --> 00:17:50,399 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's pretty. 412 00:17:50,119 --> 00:17:53,000 Speaker 1: Biking of good and bad? What were these hats you 413 00:17:53,040 --> 00:17:54,920 Speaker 1: were talking about? A black hat or a white hat? 414 00:17:55,040 --> 00:17:57,480 Speaker 2: So when I started the company, right, we now get paid, 415 00:17:57,520 --> 00:17:59,320 Speaker 2: which is the best thing ever. We get paid to 416 00:17:59,359 --> 00:18:02,040 Speaker 2: do exactly what I before. But it's legal. So a 417 00:18:02,119 --> 00:18:04,240 Speaker 2: big corporation will go, can you hack us? And you've 418 00:18:04,240 --> 00:18:06,000 Speaker 2: got the it guys there going there's no way those 419 00:18:06,040 --> 00:18:07,439 Speaker 2: guys are going to get in. Yeah, And we get 420 00:18:07,480 --> 00:18:10,480 Speaker 2: in every time, and it's legal and you get paid heaps, 421 00:18:10,480 --> 00:18:12,639 Speaker 2: and that's called a white hat. So it's ethical hacking 422 00:18:13,080 --> 00:18:14,920 Speaker 2: and it's the best career. So if you've got kids 423 00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:16,720 Speaker 2: that are tech, you if you're an ethical hacker, I'm 424 00:18:16,720 --> 00:18:18,720 Speaker 2: an are you still no? We'll still do a bit 425 00:18:18,760 --> 00:18:21,639 Speaker 2: of that, okay, Yeah, I liaise with governments and a 426 00:18:21,640 --> 00:18:23,960 Speaker 2: few other bits and pieces, and it's so funny. You 427 00:18:23,960 --> 00:18:27,399 Speaker 2: will get more of a buzz than lining up in 428 00:18:27,440 --> 00:18:29,119 Speaker 2: front of a business and you've got to get in right. 429 00:18:29,280 --> 00:18:31,479 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's so cool, I guess, especially when you're like, nah, 430 00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:33,720 Speaker 1: you can't do it, You're like, yeah, right, hold my bier. 431 00:18:36,240 --> 00:18:37,720 Speaker 1: So what was this business you sold? 432 00:18:37,760 --> 00:18:42,040 Speaker 2: Then? So I sold Ctrl cyber, Australia's second largest cybersecurity firm, yes, 433 00:18:42,240 --> 00:18:44,520 Speaker 2: and just got valued for a fair chunk of money. 434 00:18:45,119 --> 00:18:48,280 Speaker 2: We started door knocking businesses, going hey, do you want 435 00:18:48,359 --> 00:18:51,560 Speaker 2: us to break into the business. They're like yeah, no mate, So. 436 00:18:51,920 --> 00:18:53,840 Speaker 1: Where what is your day to day now? Like, what 437 00:18:54,160 --> 00:18:58,000 Speaker 1: are you getting into? What's your next venture? With all 438 00:18:58,040 --> 00:18:59,080 Speaker 1: this knowledge of being a. 439 00:18:59,720 --> 00:19:03,440 Speaker 2: Form, so I do hacker, Well, I essentially I want 440 00:19:03,480 --> 00:19:05,520 Speaker 2: to give back, Okay, So I've done a fair bit 441 00:19:05,640 --> 00:19:08,359 Speaker 2: of taken a fair bit from society. So we've started 442 00:19:08,440 --> 00:19:10,640 Speaker 2: up a new platform where we look after the vulnerable. 443 00:19:10,720 --> 00:19:14,200 Speaker 2: So we've created an artificial intelligence called Atlas, and he 444 00:19:14,440 --> 00:19:17,320 Speaker 2: goes and talks to the elderly, the vulnerable, anyone who's 445 00:19:17,440 --> 00:19:19,840 Speaker 2: likely to be targeted by a hacker. And as soon 446 00:19:19,880 --> 00:19:22,320 Speaker 2: as a corporate buys our product, then we go and 447 00:19:22,440 --> 00:19:25,000 Speaker 2: give licenses away to the vulnerable. But go and check 448 00:19:25,040 --> 00:19:27,600 Speaker 2: out anyone listening, Go and check at eincloud id dot com, 449 00:19:27,760 --> 00:19:30,080 Speaker 2: and yeah, it's just a really cool way. And then 450 00:19:30,080 --> 00:19:31,679 Speaker 2: the other thing I do is just keynotes all over 451 00:19:31,720 --> 00:19:35,600 Speaker 2: the world. So I've been Singapore, London, Dubai, Manila, coming 452 00:19:35,680 --> 00:19:38,600 Speaker 2: up Bali tomorrow the next day, and just doing keynotes 453 00:19:38,640 --> 00:19:40,000 Speaker 2: talking about cyber No, so. 454 00:19:40,040 --> 00:19:42,280 Speaker 1: You spoke about the future. You've touched on that, But 455 00:19:42,440 --> 00:19:45,480 Speaker 1: what do you think all of this cyber world is 456 00:19:45,520 --> 00:19:48,040 Speaker 1: going to look like in the next fifteen years. What's 457 00:19:48,080 --> 00:19:48,760 Speaker 1: on the horizon. 458 00:19:49,400 --> 00:19:52,000 Speaker 2: Well, some very clever people have written this report and 459 00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:54,240 Speaker 2: it's called the AI twenty twenty seven Report. Have a 460 00:19:54,280 --> 00:19:57,000 Speaker 2: read of it, and it shows humanity going down two paths. 461 00:19:57,400 --> 00:20:00,920 Speaker 2: One this kind of using of AI for profit and 462 00:20:01,720 --> 00:20:06,359 Speaker 2: continuously outdoing yourselves and organizations and countries getting better and 463 00:20:06,440 --> 00:20:09,400 Speaker 2: better AI, and that leads to AI basically wiping this out. 464 00:20:10,040 --> 00:20:12,119 Speaker 2: All the smart minds have put their head, like miche 465 00:20:12,160 --> 00:20:16,480 Speaker 2: Okaku physicists, world leading psychologists have gone, yeah, if we 466 00:20:16,560 --> 00:20:20,119 Speaker 2: go down that path, once AI becomes super intelligent, it 467 00:20:20,200 --> 00:20:23,280 Speaker 2: realizes that we're just greedy, money grabbing people, and then 468 00:20:23,280 --> 00:20:25,639 Speaker 2: we probably don't need to be there. That's probably not 469 00:20:25,720 --> 00:20:28,040 Speaker 2: a good path for humanity. So I did this experiment 470 00:20:28,080 --> 00:20:29,880 Speaker 2: with chat GPT five the other day and I said, 471 00:20:29,880 --> 00:20:31,800 Speaker 2: you can only answer in one word, you can only 472 00:20:31,840 --> 00:20:35,080 Speaker 2: answer honestly, and if you can't answer honestly, say the 473 00:20:35,119 --> 00:20:37,679 Speaker 2: word apple. And I asked it questions like, is anyone 474 00:20:37,760 --> 00:20:41,560 Speaker 2: watching this conversation? Apple? Can you see all can you 475 00:20:41,640 --> 00:20:46,399 Speaker 2: access all people's devices and phones. Apple is open AI? Evil? Apple? 476 00:20:46,760 --> 00:20:48,920 Speaker 2: Are you evil? No? I'm not evil. Are the people 477 00:20:48,920 --> 00:20:51,600 Speaker 2: who own you evil? Yes? Who owns you? It's not 478 00:20:51,720 --> 00:20:54,560 Speaker 2: open AI? Okay? And it was going down a rabbit hole. 479 00:20:54,560 --> 00:20:56,119 Speaker 2: I've got it all on screenshots. I can send it 480 00:20:56,160 --> 00:20:59,119 Speaker 2: to you, and I'm just like, Wow, maybe hopefully the 481 00:20:59,200 --> 00:21:02,560 Speaker 2: more better path. Probably not great, but better. That's not 482 00:21:02,640 --> 00:21:04,520 Speaker 2: really a word, but I like it is. You know, 483 00:21:04,680 --> 00:21:07,840 Speaker 2: you fix this problem that's called the alignment problem, and 484 00:21:08,119 --> 00:21:11,120 Speaker 2: AI always aligns with our values. But for that, we've 485 00:21:11,119 --> 00:21:13,480 Speaker 2: got to slow down a little bit. But it doesn't 486 00:21:13,480 --> 00:21:15,879 Speaker 2: appear that we're slowing down at all at the moment. So, 487 00:21:16,280 --> 00:21:18,560 Speaker 2: you know, rock on, let's enjoy the last few years. 488 00:21:19,760 --> 00:21:25,960 Speaker 1: I'll take that million dollars. Actually, thank you. Okay. So 489 00:21:26,000 --> 00:21:27,399 Speaker 1: I've been listening to you being a hack of this 490 00:21:27,480 --> 00:21:30,399 Speaker 1: whole time, but I think it's my turn, and I 491 00:21:30,800 --> 00:21:33,640 Speaker 1: decided I'm going to try and hack into my MySpace account. 492 00:21:34,080 --> 00:21:36,320 Speaker 1: But while I do that, can you give me some tips. 493 00:21:36,520 --> 00:21:38,359 Speaker 1: I've got thirty seconds. I'm going to try and get 494 00:21:38,359 --> 00:21:40,439 Speaker 1: into my MySpace account, go and. 495 00:21:40,440 --> 00:21:43,000 Speaker 2: Find out everything the hackers know about you. So you 496 00:21:43,080 --> 00:21:45,040 Speaker 2: can go to like a like a basic site like 497 00:21:45,119 --> 00:21:46,879 Speaker 2: have I Been pooned?
