Don't You (Forget About Your Data)

Back in 1985, Simple Minds sang “Don’t You (Forget About Me),” the soundtrack to – what is IMHO – one of the greatest movies of the ‘80s: “The Breakfast Club.” The song famously asks us not to forget, and – if any of the wedding parties I’ve attended are anything to go by – we certainly haven’t.

The metaphor of software viruses to biological ones is deeply ingrained, easily seen in the fact that biological viruses are at least the namesake, if not the inspiration for computer viruses. Can we take this analogy and reapply it in reverse? Is it possible to learn more about how we can combat biological viruses, such as the raging COVID-19 epidemic, by leveraging concepts, mindsets, and ideas that evolved in the software engineering and cybersecurity worlds?
