Ralph Echemendia is a world-renowned cybersecurity expert, known internationally by his alter ego “The Ethical Hacker.”
In 2015, WIRED called Echemendia “Hollywood’s go-to digital bodyguard, a reformed hacker from the dark side who now helps filmmakers, celebrities, and moguls keep their valuable data secure.”
His jaw dropping “Hacking Hollywood” appearance has been presented at Creative Artists Agency, the Digital Entertainment World Expo, as well as the Anti-Piracy and Content Protection Summit.
Echemendia has worked with award-winning Director Oliver Stone as a technical supervisor on films such as “Savages” and “Snowden” as well as other projects such as the film “Nerve” and award-winning TV series Mr. Robot.
Scott Schober, author of the popular book “Hacked Again,” and host on the Cybercrime Magazine Podcast, recently interviewed Echemendia, covering his days as a teenage hacker and his thoughts on today’s threats posed by AI.
