Episode 0x65
Ben and Matt Screw Up HTML
Thanks Matt-Dave, this is Ben-Jamie for episode 0x65 (82 for those of you not good with the hexa-ma-decimal) and we’re down a bunch of peope tonight but that’s okay because we’re super committed (except Wil, he’s doing who knows what somewhere). Tonight we’ve got a lot of news about vulns and then a brief stroll through the cybers, derps and mailbags before calling it a night. Hey Matt, what’s in the news?
Upcoming this week…
- Lots of News
- Breaches
- SCADA / Cyber, cyber… etc.
- finishing it off with DERPs/Mailbag (or Deep Dive)
- And there are weekly Briefs – no arguing or discussion allowed
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.

Notably, Cisco has released an IDS signature back in November;
but how does that help an admin who gets the alert.
