Proving the Negative (PTNPod): Swanning About in Cyber Security

If you are looking for new and interesting ways to think about security, this is the podcast for you.
Co-hosts Arianna and Claudine talk to cyber security researchers about the difficult (and very real) problems they are trying to solve. From online hate to hacking voice assistants with nonsense words, we showcase thinkers and doers from the Centre for Doctoral Training in Cyber Security at the University of Oxford.
Here at PTNPod we keep the main message positive and pro-active. Come and join us as we swan about with friends in a limited episode run for Spring 2022.

With thanks to our creative team, artist Audrey Tinsman and composer Sean Sirur.
