ÜBER DIESE EPISODE
She’s back. And she brought a book.
After a quieter stretch on the feed, Kristin King returnsto the Bites & Bytes Podcast with a solo episode to announce what she’s been building behind the scenes: Securing What Feeds Us: Cybersecurity in Food and Agriculture, published by Wiley and available for pre-order now, with an official release date of September 29, 2026.
In this episode, Kristin breaks down what’s inside the nearly 500-page book, from precision agriculture and operational technology to aquaculture, agroterrorism, food science innovation, and the human layer that runs through all of it. She makes the case for why food and agriculture deserve the same cybersecurity attention we give to the power grid or financial sector and explains who this book is really for (spoiler: it’s anyone who eats).
She also talks about where the podcast is headed next andmakes one clear ask of the community that helped get her here.
