Feel free to scream while listening - it's not weird at all. 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 [email protected] 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 (approximately) 5 opinionated infosec pros who have sufficient opinions of their own they don't need to speak for anyone except themselves.
