Father and Son, CISO and Psychologist: Navigating the Digital Age


Posted on in Podcasts

Richard Bird and Xavier Bird are father and son. Richard has spent 3 decades in technology and cybersecurity. Xavier, like most of Gen Z, is a digital native. He also happens to be a doctoral candidate in psychology who has focused his attention on adolescent counseling and the impact digital experiences have on the development of self-image among children consuming a steady diet of feeds and streams from video games to influencers. From the pitfalls of “algorithmic parenting” to the ripple effects of social media culture on identity formation. Tune in to this podcast as this father and son duo unpack the nuanced interplay of privacy, security, and mental health in the digital age.
