Network Security Update with Sam Bowne [30:00]

from Professor

On Tuesday, we did our second network security podcast with Sam Bowne, Professor of Computer Networking and Information Technology from City College of San Francisco. We had a nice discussion with Sam sharing his thoughts on security and providing us with a snapshot of some of the latest and greatest developments in the field of network security. Here’s some of the questions we asked Sam: In our last conversation you mentioned that you got a BS and PhD without ever graduating high school. A number of listeners were amazed that you were able to do this and wanted more details – for example did you get a GED? Did you take the SATs? Mike sent over an article on password cracking – did you see anything interesting in that article? It’s been over a month since we last spoke. You had mentioned the PWN 2 OWN contest and were also planning to attend some training. Could you tell us the outcome of the contest and anything interesting you learned in your training? Any interesting news in network security exploits or defenses in the last month? Sam discusses a number of things in the podcast including: Lifehacker password-guessing Web of Trust Firefox (and Chrome)Extension NoScript Firefox Extension IPv4 Address Exhaustion Wikileaks Sam's class content, email and lots of other great stuff can be found at http://samsclass.info/ Check him out - one of the best!
