Frederic Filloux: Excuse me Xavier, am I bothering you?
Xavier Yvon: Not at all Frédéric, please come in. Move in !
Frederic Filloux: No need, thank you, I was just going to tell you that I’m leaving tomorrow for the United States… I’m going to Seattle at Microsoft and I think I’ll learn things there that might interest you for an episode of La Loupe
Xavier Yvon: Oh yes ? Are you going there to discover a new Artificial Intelligence software? Or talk about the challenges of tech at the moment?
Frederic Filloux: Not at all… I’m going there to speak Ukraine!
Xavier Yvon: Uh ok… there you have to explain to me.
Frederic Filloux: In October, I interviewed a former Israeli cyber-spy. And during the conversation, he told me about the transformation of cyberattacks, relations between states and private companies, and above all he said to me: “you should look at Microsoft and Ukraine”…
This little sentence, you can imagine, that she challenged me, so I contacted Microsoft. And in addition to agreeing to talk about it, they told me outright to come to the headquarters, meet the person who manages the protection of Ukraine and part of his team.
Xavier Yvon: Oh yes. I immediately note this subject in our list of next podcasts, and then when you return you come to the studio to tell us all about it?
Frederic Filloux: With pleasure !
Xavier Yvon: Have a good trip !
