Welcome to the security box, podcast 55. On this edition of the podcast we’ve got two Sans News Bites headlines, topics including a very interesting story on someone named “PlugwalkJoe” I.E. Joseph O’Connor, a topic on a new ransomware gang called Black Matter, and we’ve also got several news items including one that isn’t an article but intrigued me when listening to the TWIT network. All of this plus anyone who had questions, comments or took part in the discussion, as podcast 55 gets started.
