The Security box, podcast 118: let’s talk books

Hello folks, welcome to the security box, podcast 118.

Let’s talk books! We covered 6 out of the 8 in full, and we were a bit time constrained a bit. That’s ok, as we actually covered everything but two as related to the first.

This is the 124.55mb file you’ll need if you don’t have RSS already.

The RSS is being updated and don’t forget our Amazon integration as well. The link is in the blogroll.

Here are the entire show notes for you to have, and we’ll see you all next week!


Welcome to podcast 118 of the Security Box. On this show, we’re going to talk about books. Not all books may be covered due to time constraints, but we’ll list all of the ones here. Question is, what kind of books? These books are dealing with security in one way or another.

The list may contain multiple books, and are split up in to authors. We’ll have this in a multi-list format where the main list is in author, and sublist will have the books.

Books may be available via other sources that the blind and disabled can access including Bookshare, the NLS, and apple books. The NLS Bard page can only be accessed by eligible patrons and will not be linked here. All linked books come from Amazon or its affiliates, but you can search the book titles separately to find the price that fits your budget unless bard has it already.

From this list, we do know that BARD only has one book, but that could change. Check Bard often, you never know what will be posted there.

Besides that, we’ll have news, notes and more. Now, here are the books and thanks for listening!

  • Mark Russinovich
  • Scott Schober
  • Kim Zetter
  • Mikko Hyponnen
  • There may be more, but these are specific to the landscape we’re covering. There are also books that tell true stories from people like Frank Abagnale, Kevin Mitnick and possibly others. Please feel free to check out these books, as maybe it can teach you something to improve your security posture. The true stories that I intended to list but decided against doing so may also be used in changing any issues you may have too. While the true stories talked about crimes committed in the past and how they changed as authors, they’re still worth reading if not to learn what was done, how they were caught and the consequences of their crimes.

    We hope you enjoy today’s program and thanks so much for listening!
