As a maritime cybersecurity researcher, consultant, and practitioner with nearly fifty years of experience, Gary walks us through the ins and outs of cybersecurity at sea, automated identification systems (AIS), and AI’s current and future role in maritime operations. What is AIS spoofing, and why is it dangerous? What are the unique challenges posed by cybersecurity at sea? Is the maritime industry ready for artificial intelligence integrations? “AI is going to [present] really incredible opportunities for us moving forward. I think however, it is a tool that is not well understood in general by people who are not specialists. And particularly in the maritime industry, we're going to have to get a lot better at understanding the capabilities and the pitfalls,” Gary said. Join us for this and more on this episode of Hack the Plan[e]t. The views and opinions expressed in this podcast represent those of the speaker, and do not necessarily represent the views and opinions of their employers. Hack the Plant is brought to you by ICS Village and the Institute for Security and Technology. The podcast and artwork embedded on this page are from Bryson Bort, which is the property of its owner and not affiliated with or endorsed by Listen Notes, Inc.

Podcast: Exploited: The Cyber Truth Episode: When Open Source Gets You Into Hot Water: Copyleft Risk in Embedded SystemsPub date: 2025-12-11Get Podcast Transcript →powered by Listen411 - fast audio-to-text and summarizationOpen source accelerates development in embedded systems, but hidden license obligations can quickly create legal and operational risk. In this episode of Exploited: The Cyber Truth, host Paul Ducklin is joined by RunSafe Security Founder and CEO Joseph M. Saunders and Salim Blume, Director of Security Applications, for a look at how copyleft risk emerges and why compliance in embedded products is more challenging than many teams expect. Salim breaks down how restrictive licenses, such as GPL and AGPL, can force the disclosure of proprietary code, interrupt product shipments, or create exposure long after devices are deployed in the field. Joe shares why accurate SBOMs, automated license checks, and enforcing policy at build time are critical to preventing surprises in downstream products. The discussion also touches on the ongoing Vizio case, where the TV manufacturer faces litigation that could compel public release of source code under the GPL, highlighting how open source obligations can surface years after products hit the market. Together, Paul, Joe, and Salim explore: How copyleft obligations can require source-code disclosureWhy embedded environments complicate license complianceReal-world cases where unnoticed GPL dependencies caused major issues, such as Vizio’s GPL lawsuit and Cisco’s WRT54G router familyThe growing implications of AGPL for SaaS and connected servicesHow build-time SBOMs and automated controls reduce long-term risk Whether you're building connected devices, managing software supply chain compliance, or protecting proprietary IP, this episode offers practical guidance to reduce copyleft risk before it becomes a costly problem.The podcast and artwork embedded on this page are from RunSafe Security, which is the property of its owner and not affiliated with or endorsed by Listen Notes, Inc.
