Episode — SB004
With Dave Away Minions Play
Dave is at the ISC2 Security Congress in Chicago right now and muttered something about really bad hotel wifi. Not sure whether it’s the hotel or the wifi that is bad. I did not the correlation between expensive hotel and really bad wifi. Wonder if Hutton has modeled that yet.
And if you’ve got commentary, please sent it to mailbag@liquidmatrix.org for us to check out.
DISCLAIMER: It’s not that explicit, but you may want to use headphones if you’re at work.
ADDITIONAL DISCLAIMER: In case it is unclear, this is the story of 5 opinionated infosec pros who have sufficient opinions of their own they don’t need to speak for anyone except themselves. Ok? Good.
