Podcast 24 of the asecurity box additional notes

While I was looking at stuff to prepare for this week, I found that I had done show notes for podcast 24. I’ve replaced my copy of the notes I released at the time of that podcast release.

I did want to bring some good news in to the podcast, as well as linking to some of the Solar Winds stuff.

This post is only to update the shownotes, nothing else has changed. Go to the podcast section of the blog and find the first entry of podcast 24 if you need a link for downloading.

Welcome to program 24 of the Security Box. While the program is not a live program, we’re going to continue to give people up-to-date material that is of importance while we look back in the year in review. All news will be broken up, but we’re only linking to stories in the sections, we are not going to comment on each one like we do for the live show. The tech blog may also have articles with more commentary. Hope you all enjoy the program as much as I have putting it together for you.

Solar Wind:

Solar Wind is now the biggest topic. While the tech blog has commentary in writing, we’re linking to things as a resource so you can see them when the podcast is released. In this podcast, I only have one segment, so the articles will be of value and you can decide what to bring up once we return to the airwaves for our live shows.
