An Information Security Place Podcast – Episode 4

September 2nd, 2008 Michael Farnum

Episode 4 is here folks.  We had a couple of times of weirdness happen, so forgive some of the bumps and weird splices going along.  Here are the things Jim and I had some discussions around:

  • More privacy rights violations, this time through people doing dumb things are just being lazy – low tech hacks
  • FEMA voicemail system hack leading to $12k of long distance calls – default password left on system!
  • Hurricane Gustav led to a discussion about DR / BC
  • PCI 1.2 and what it means for you (if you have to deal with that crap)
  • Consultant’s Corner – I blab about how you have to be prepared, set expectations, be knowledgeable, and be FLEXIBLE (I wrote a post about this).
  • Geek toys was not included this time, but it will be in the future.

Also wanted to give shout outs to Ross at http://www.secureputer.com and Jean-Christophe at http://www.phocean.net, two brand new security blogs out there, which we mentioned in the show.

Music notes:

  • Intro was Digital Breaks with “Therapy”
  • The first segway was Climax with “OnTheEdge”
  • The second segway was Climax with “Eternity”
