In cyber-security, the red team plays attack; the blue team plays defense. Martin Hench, the protagonist of Cory Doctorow’s latest too-close-to-home-for-comfort thriller, Red Team Blues, was born to play attack. There is simply no better financial Red Teamer in Silicon Valley. Martin is 67 years old, single, and a successful self-employed forensic accountant. While an engaging thriller about the exciting world of forensic accounting may sound like an oxymoron, Doctorow has written just that. In Red Team Blues Doctorow has managed to pen an especially gripping thriller about a seemingly unlikely character, and has used it as a way to encourage readers to think critically about the role of technology and security in our lives, both now and in the near future. In conversation with Doctorow will be Glynn Washington, creator and host of NPR’s Snap Judgment. This session promises to be extremely informative and a lot of fun!
