Hacker question:
How are people able to see me in front of my computer when I don't have a web camera? Is there such a term as ghosting? What the heck is it?

Application: mouse pointer position is on computer with no link to net. A gate opens for net to check position of pointer then closes. Person presses a secure green button if computer pointer location equals net examination when it opens gate and closes. Tampering of this gate, or fake gate insert alarms security net world as all gates in every device made in 1 place in world and delivered to every company without being hampered/tampered.

Mouse pointer just one of many. Could be angle of screen on laptop etc

Maybe a bounce start....

Not all the presenters been very well versed in their presentation, it seemed they failed to have a red line to follow.
I suggest going for Dan Geer or Blackhat presentations for those wishing to hear it better explained.

Beware of believing people just because they're supposed to be experts. Remember that they are the decision-makers in a system that has all kinds of issues for some reason. ;) A couple of specifics: serious targeted attacks are not new, "the Internet" is not really very new any more today (especially in relation to Information Security), "advanced analytics" based IPS are not necessarily a silver bullet, and, technology versus governance shouldn't be at odds; authorities can more effectively promote security by embracing advancements rather than opposing them.
