Security Briefing – March 19th

Good morning!

Changes everywhere at the digest. Last week it was the look and feel, this week the contributors list is growing. James aka Myrcurial introduces and welcomes the newest writers. Quine posted his first article last night titled Expecting Privacy is Comical. As well, Matt Johansen posted his third (or fourth?) article which was quickly picked up by Proofpoint and posted to their blog as well.

Thank you for spending some time with us and providing feedback along the way. Every comment is much appreciated.

Signed,

The Intern
