Food is the most essential system we have and the easiest to take for granted. We see full shelves and stocked markets, but we don’t see the invisible technology holding it all together. Farms, factories, and storage facilities are now connected to digital networks, and those networks are under attack. When ransomware locks a milking parlor, cows suffer. When cold storage is hacked, food spoils. When farmers are harassed with online disinformation, trust in the food system erodes. Cybersecurity isn’t just about protecting data; it’s about safeguarding our lives. In this talk, Kristin Demoranville challenges the dangerous myth of food’s permanence and reveals why securing what feeds us means rethinking not just how we grow food, but how we protect the entire food system. If hackers already understand the fragility of our food system, why don’t we?
