Technology Now

What is technology facilitated abuse?

22 May 2025

Description

How can we prevent people misusing technology to harm others? This week, Technology Now investigates how technology can be used as a weapon against others. We ask how technology has been utilized by bad faith actors in this way and we examine whose responsibility it is to prevent this misuse of technology. Joanne O’Connor from HPE’s cybersecurity organization and founder of Ireland’s National Cyber Security Awareness Taskforce tells us more.This is Technology Now, a weekly show from Hewlett Packard Enterprise. Every week, hosts Michael Bird and Aubrey Lovell look at a story that's been making headlines, take a look at the technology behind it, and explain why it matters to organizations and what can be learnt from it.About Joanne O’Connor: https://www.linkedin.com/in/joanne-oconnor-/?originalSubdomain=ieSources:Refuge, UK Charity: https://refuge.org.uk/news/refuge-calls-for-tech-facilitated-abuse-to-be-a-priority-in-government-vawg-strategy-following-the-charitys-inaugural-tech-safety-summit/Technology abuse in fast fashion: https://blog.policy.manchester.ac.uk/posts/2024/07/modern-slavery-and-digital-technology-in-fast-fashion-the-transparency-dividend/Snake Venom:Snake venom protection by a cocktail of varespladib and broadly neutralizing human antibodies, Glanville, Jacob et al., Cell, Volume 0, Issue 0, 10.1016/j.cell.2025.03.050 External Linkhttps://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cr5d0l7el36oHubble First Light:https://science.nasa.gov/mission/hubble/overview/hubbles-first-light/https://science.nasa.gov/mission/hubble/observatory/design/optics/hubbles-mirror-flaw/https://science.nasa.gov/mission/hubble/overview/the-history-of-hubble/
