Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
A software protocol problem was identified last week that could have shut down the Internet if exploited. Society’s level of reliance on computers now means that a mistake in arcane computer code could shut everything form our home computer to our ATMs, to the monitors administering medication to patients in operating rooms. Experts join us for a Tech Tuesday discussion looking at what’s being done to ensure that the basic software that is the backbone of our communications network is secure.
