The 130.1mb file can be downloaded right here. The show is over 2 hours and some great discussion too.

We’ll be back next week, with another program, and this time, its on our RSS feed unlike last time when I said it was and I found out I uploaded it to the wrong place.

Here are the show notes for today’s program.


Welcome to the Security box, program number 62. On this program, we’re going to cover Windows Update as well as a very interesting article from Krebs about a new botnet that seems to have done quite a bit of damage. It is an IOT botnet called Meris. We’ll also have news, notes and lots more.

Windows Update

There are the usual two articles on Windows Update. This time, Krebs has quite a bit on these updates while Trend Micro covers the highlights but also gives some info of value too. They’re both good for their reasons, so read them both.

Meris

There is one article which we’re taking from for this one, but did you listen to podcast 836?

News Notes

I hope you enjoy the program and thanks so much for listening!
