I’ll be getting more on the blog later, but for now, here is the show notes with links to today’s topics and the like.
Welcome to the security box, podcast 56. Two comments will start us off as someone commented on the replay of our show from last week. Both are good comments worth bringing up. Next, we’ve got a topic that might be of interest talking about the lifecycle of a breached database. Next, let’s find out how the government is doing with their Cyber Security. What did the senate report find? Find out in our second topic. We’ll have news notes and commentary as well.
Topics
- The Life Cycle of a Breached Database Krebs on Security
- Federal agencies are failing to protect sensitive data, Senate report finds from Cyberscoop and The State Department and 3 other US agencies earn a D for cybersecurity from Ars Technica go hand in hand. Both articles are good, but ars has a very interesting table and other stuff too.
