My favorite way to get current with the latest industry threats and future adoptionable technologies. I listen on the commute home.
Hands-down, my favorite Cyber Security podcast! It is my go-to digest of what's happening; it should be yours too!
Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the internet, "Jaff" is out there lurking! This will be a more powerful force, with greater reach, and more costly! We must be forever vigilant!
