Episode Description from the Publisher

The encryption key is officially dead. Are we wasting billions on "Post-Quantum" security while hackers walk right through the physical backdoor? And why are manufacturers actively leaving our digital world - from EVs to the National Grid -exposed by design just to save 50p? ๐Ÿ† $10,000 BOUNTY CHALLENGE: Weโ€™re challenging the worldโ€™s best hackers to break the QueChip. Do you have what it takes? ๐Ÿ‘‰ REGISTER FOR THE QUEHACKATHON HERE: https://sqe.io/quehackathon/ Jay Adamson and Warren Atkinson are joined by Hamid Pishdadian and Mike Goodwin from SQE to have the exact conversation the industry is trying to dodge. We are cutting the corporate BS to expose an uncomfortable truth: you simply cannot software-patch your way out of a hardware crisis. Hamid and Mike aren't here to pitch another tool -theyโ€™re here to show us a physical microchip that mathematically kills the encryption key for good. Whether you are a CISO exhausted by "security theatre," a hacker looking for a real challenge, or a professional trapped by biased hiring algorithms, this is the reality check you need. ๐Ÿ”ฅ WHAT YOU'LL DISCOVER: - ๐Ÿšจ The 50p Death Trap: Why tech companies are leaving medical devices and smart cities completely exposed to hackers, just to save 50p on a microchip. - ๐Ÿ•ต๏ธ The Quantum Scam: Why the industry is selling expensive "future-proof" software patches that don't actually work, and how fixing the hardware kills the threat completely. - ๐Ÿ”‘ Killing the Encryption Key: How 35 years of engineering has led to a silicon chip that proves we no longer need hackable encryption keys to stay safe. - ๐Ÿ›๏ธ Fake Safety Laws: Why the UK's ban on default passwords is just "security theatre" that won't actually stop a real nation-state attack. - ๐Ÿค– Stopping Rogue AI: How to prevent advanced AI from faking machine identities and physically hijacking factories, cars, and power grids. - ๐Ÿ“ฑ True Digital Ownership: How a new physical wallet stops crypto phishing dead in its tracks and ends our forced reliance on middlemen like banks and cloud servers. - ๐Ÿ’ผ The Broken Hiring Machine: Why the cyber industry is bleeding ยฃ20,000+ per hire while brilliant tech professionals get ghosted by biased HR algorithms. - ๐Ÿ’ฐ The $10,000 Hackathon: Why SQE is ignoring corporate marketing and challenging the world's best developers to break their tech for a live cash bounty. ๐Ÿ”น Hamid Pishdadian: Hamid is the visionary engineer behind the QueChip. Leveraging decades of physical engineering, he built a blockchain into the silicon itself, mathematically proving we no longer need to transmit encryption keys to be secure. ๐Ÿ”น Mike Goodwin: Mike is driving the commercial integration of the QueChip. He bridges the gap between complex engineering and real-world applications, directly challenging the software-patch addiction of the modern tech world. ๐ŸŽ Break the Chip.
