S2 #2 - WHAT IS THE CLOUD?
There is a lot of hype around the cloud. Many people know the term "the cloud" but the meaning is often jokingly relegated to the "other peoples computers". Is it really other peoples computers? Well it's not your computer. It's bigger and more amazing than that. In this show I'll talk about the...

S2 #1 - Shine Theory / DevOps / Community
#DevOps, #DevSecOps, #ShineTheory "Shine Theory not only defines how success can be achieved across so many aspects of our lives but also brings clarity to the successes of such movements as DevOps. The concept of collaboration of software development and operations, over the separation of role,...

#15 - Our Devices Listening?
...or is it "are devices listening" to you? Well yes. There's always a simple answer to these questions and it's yes. Breaking it down to the basics, pretty much all of our devices are listening because we've enabled Siri or Google or Alexa or… to respond to a keyword command like "Hey Siri" such...

#14 - Mobile Security: The Inside Job
This was going to be a comparison of major phones, breaking down some of the exploits and weaknesses. I was potentially going to compare IOS to Android and throw fuel onto an already raging fire amongst smart phone enthusiasts which is, if you’re listening to a podcast, all of us. Maybe you’re…

#13 - The Rise and Fall of Crypto
Last year at this time Bitcoin was going haywire! It was on what seems to be the never ending rise to THE MOON! Until it stopped just shortly into 2018. Totally unpredictable behaviour. Stupid bitcoin! Or is it? There is a pattern. Ok a few patterns but this one struck me as interesting. If you...

#12 - Staying Relevant in a Tech World
Once a new technology rolls over you, if you're not part of the steamroller, you're part of the road. Stewart Brand This is one of those podcasts which isn’t the offspring of late night research, countless hours of trial and error tempered by seminars, articles and other people podcasts. This one...

#11 - Hacking Hackers and their Hacks
Is it cast aside teenage wunderkinds who can seemingly dissect all things computer with the crack of a laptop to create designer chaos? They are portrayed smoking cigarettes, roller blading and always have media savvy branding! Too cool! Any time a major breach is announced, the media conjures up...

#10 - Machine Learning ( Real World Applications )
Machine Learning I’ve heard the phrase Machine Learning banging around the media more intensely over the past few years and you know what that means… I’m not happy until I know what is really means. TO THE BAT-MOWER! My first conjured image is of course a lawn mower in a classroom trying to…

#9 - Social Media versus Data Privacy & GDPR
I was a late adopter waiting until about 2007 before getting onto Facebook. Back in the 2000s I remember my brother calling Facebook a platform for narcissists. Just over 10 years later and 2.3 Billion narcissists later he and I are both active participants. I don’t think he was wrong! To a…

#8 - Self Driving Cars (Robots Rule!)
Robots will rule us all. I feel that’s already been established by more sci-fi writers than can be credited in one podcast. You may have recently seen that an Uber self-driving car killed a pedestrian in a headline grabbing frenzy that re-awakened the humanity in all of us. Questions like What…

#7 - Part 2 - Browse This! (Browser Security)
The internet browser, which began as a simple visual interpretation of a "markup" language used to create a textual representation of visual elements is now a dangerously functional run-time environment potentially comparable to our host operating system. In this episode we talk about known...

#7 - Part 1 - Browse This! (Browser Security)
Let me go back to the beginning. 1990! Shortly after the earth cooled and life began, Sir Tim Berners-Lee just decided to invent the world wide web. This was approximately 1990 give or take any prior research and general acceptance of the idea. He also put together the first browser confusingly…

#6 - Part 2 - Blockchain Security & The Bitcoin Boom
In Part 1 of our article on blockchain security and cryptocurrency, we took a hard look at the core components that make up a successful cryptocurrency like Bitcoin. From the distributed network itself to the individuals who wish to own and use a cryptocurrency wallet to transfer or spend…

#6 - Part 1 - Blockchain Security & The Bitcoin Boom
Thanks to Bitcoin, it’s fair to say that “blockchain” is a buzzword at the moment—like DevOps, or Zumba. This article isn’t going to dive into what a blockchain is, because many others out there already do that. Here’s a pretty good one that has a snappy description of the evolution of Bitcoin…

#5 Part 2 - P@$$w0rd5! (Passwords suck)
Passwords are a pain in the a$$. In fact, in an interview with The Wall Street Journal, Fernando Corbató, now 91 years old and the inventor of the password back in the 60s said that passwords have become “kind of a nightmare”. The current state of the internet wasn’t quite a consideration when...

#4 - Life's a Breach - Is My Data Safe?
No! Thanks for reading (listening). It could be worth defining what a data breach actually is. Cyber security people often refer to three essential pillars upon which anyone responsible for data must adhere. They are called the CIA, oddly. Not to be confused with the American super-spy…

#3 - The Mysteries and Insecurities of IoT (a.k.a The Internet Of Things 2017)
The Internet of Things! Oh! That! The Internet… got it… Of… no problem… Things… nope you lost me. When I first heard the term IoT I had no f*cking idea what it was and what it meant. Obviously it was made completely clear when I was told what it stood for… How long did it take, and who came up…

#2 - The Ransomware Show (2017)
This is one of those subjects that has struck everyone from the techno security guru to the average person who might simply be trying to do their job. Ransomware brands such as Goldeneye, Petya (and its counterpart NotPetya), Cryptolocker, CryptoWall, Locky, WannaCry and very recently, Bad Rabbit...

#1 - WTF is Bitcoin (2017)
I’m in a taxi with my friend Sascha (names unchanged to torment the guilty) at about 3 in the morning and the taxi driver somehow ends up talking to us about whether he should buy or invest in Bitcoin. Sascha pipes in first saying it’s a huge waste of time, it isn’t really worth anything and that...
