About the Work
HuntSource is a technology recruiting and solutions firm. A 9/11-style cyber attack has been in the headlines for years, yet experts say globally we’re unprepared. October is Cyber Security Awareness Month, so we wanted to sound the alarm around these threats. October 2018 was also the 80th anniversary of Orson Welles’s infamous War of the Worlds radio broadcast. To celebrate this and bring attention to this important topic, we created a modern day version of this historic stunt. Leveraging the medium most listened to by the business community—the podcast. By partnering with one of the most respected cyber security podcasts , the stage was set. In the spirit of the original War of the Worlds broadcast, the podcast was promoted as their first live podcast on social media. Featuring HuntSource Co-Founders as guests on the show. It started off as a normal episode, but then strange things started to happen.
