1. Hi,

   thanks for your video with Dave, I really enjoyed that.

   I am wondering and I think you mentioned something like that – but I would find it interesting if all of you guys could be on video like that… (hehe… enjoying it here, sitting in the first row…)

   What about some questions from your audience? Not that I have some ready now, but I am sure I could make up some (not embarassing ones of course – ha!).

   Just some thoughts – but keep up the good work!

   Cheers Thomas P.

   Hello guys, and thank you for the great show.

   Referring to your second episode where you flamed Iran IrCERT, I just thought I would let you know that Libya now also has a CERT, it’s called LY-CERT and you can find them online here http://cert.ly

   Regards

   Greetings from +52° 56′ 58.92″, -1° 9′ 0.36″ (approx),

   As you all adore PCI-DSS so much, I figured I’d share this article with you: Silicon Republic

   Some of my favourite quotes:

   • “Fewer incidents of large-scale credit card data theft are a sign that PCI-DSS standards are finally having an effect among large retailers, the director of the group’s security standards council has claimed.”
   • “Mark Gallagher, keynote speaker at the Dublin event, drew parallels between Formula One and PCI-DSS in how they approach risk.”
   • “You’ve got to have defence in depth and PCI gives you that best defence.”

   I can already hear James Arlen screaming.

   Keep up the good work and try not to have an aneurysm!

   Cheers,
   Graham S
