SN627: Sharknado

from Security Now - 16k MP3 Hosted by TWiT

Although there are an unbelievable FIVE "Sharknado" movies, this will be the first and last time we use that title for a podcast! This week we have another update on Marcus Hutchins. We discuss the validity of WikiLeaks documents, the feasibility of rigorously proving software correctness, and the fact that nearly half a million people need to get their bodies' firmware updated. Another controversial CIA project is exposed by WikiLeaks. A careful analysis is done of the FCC's Title II Net Neutrality public comments. We talk about a neat two-factor auth tracking site, the Stupid Patent of the Month, an example of a vanity top-level domain, a bit of errata, and finish up with the utterly unconscionable security mistakes made by AT&T in their line of U-Verse routers.
