Your questions for the guests
Declan Ganley is an English-born Irish entrepreneur, businessman, inventor and political activist known mainly for his work in telecommunications. He has built a diverse portfolio of companies, primarily in telecommunications, forestry, and technology, with operations spanning Europe, Russia, and the United States.
Next week, Declan will be sitting down with the guys to discuss the internet, data security, innovation in the global internet space and how to maximise fast, private and secure global connectivity that is effective in every remote corner of the planet. He will also go into vulnerabilities that our software and hardware systems, like data centres and undersea fibre optic cables, may suffer from.
Comment your questions for Declan below.
How long before there's a quantum computer powerful enough to break our current strongest cryptography and render obsolete all data security?
And can we trust AI using self learning or reinforcement learning algorithms to ensure that doesn't happen?
Copper infrastructure is slowly falling into disuse and being replaced by fibre optic and the likes of Starlink. Africa for example never really had major copper infrastructure and its economy was able to bypass that expense and go straight to new hi-tech data transfer. Soon we may possibly be using quantum entanglement for secure data transfer. There is a lot of junk in space, could the whole edifice of highspeed data be one day compromised leaving us dependant on old tech that is not maintained and vanishingly available?
