The Future Of Technology & Security: A Force for Good or Bad?

Future Security Trends: Implications for Human Rights

During this episode we interview Dr. Jean-Marc Rickli, Head of Global Risk and Resilience at the Geneva Centre for Security Policy (GCSP) in Geneva, Switzerland. Among other questions, we ask which technologies the security sector is already embracing and which are on the horizon that have the potential to disrupt the industry. With serious concerns about the way facial recognition technology is being used by security services, Dr. Rickli considers whether technology is a force for good or bad, and what mechanisms can be put in place to effectively govern the use of technology across the sector.
