Episode 63 - We Welcome Our Alien Overlords

Well, it was too good to be true, we didn't have the whole crew

together, but Martin, Andy, and Joseph hit a couple of topics tonight

anyway:

First was the continuing story of the virus that has hit the U.S.

drone fleet. We also posit the theory that the virus was put there by

aliens. Just saying.

Then, two articles that we kind of rolled together, discussing first

the role of compliance in a company's outside contractors:

Then we discussed the article from George Hulme and Eric Cowperthwaite

talking about budget and the role of the CSO.

Episode 62 - Leaders & Experts

This week, for two weeks in a row, the whole gang is back. We hit two

articles that provoked a lot of thought amongst us, so without further

ado:

Security 101: Security in 140 Characters or Less

Join us next week, as we continue to put right what once went wrong,

and hope each time that our next leap will be the leap home.
