For the first time in who knows how long, we had the whole crew on the show this evening, and we hit some really fun stories. First, there are a few upcoming InfoSec events that you might want to be aware of. First, BSidesDFW is this upcoming weekend, November the 3rd: http://www.securitybsides.com/w/page/50488342/BSidesDFW%202012. Next weekend are three different BSides events, BSidesDelaware, Portland, and Jackson: http://www.securitybsides.com/w/page/28563447/BSidesDelaware http://www.securitybsides.com/w/page/40113672/BsidesPDX http://www.securitybsides.com/w/page/53447313/BSidesJackson Then we jumped into our first story for the evening, the recent breach in South Carolina: http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-505245_162-57542255/haley-taxpayer-info-didnt-need-to-be-encrypted/ http://www.reuters.com/article/2012/10/29/us-usa-cybersecurity-southcarolina-idUSBRE89S13T20121029 Once our heads stopped spinning from some of those quotes, we went into a pretty cool, old style hack that Barnes and Noble recently disclosed: http://www.wired.com/threatlevel/2012/10/barnes-and-noble-pos-hack/ From those, we transitioned into a discussion on Incident Response: http://www.infosecisland.com/blogview/22470-Have-You-Added-Personas-to-your-Incident-Response-Program.html As well as Mike Rothman's great article on security tradeoffs: http://www.darkreading.com/blog/240010015/making-security-trade-offs.html After our MAD Security Minute for the week, we wrapped up with a discussion of IAM from Darkreading: http://www.darkreading.com/identity-and-access-management/167901114/security/news/240009630/7-costly-iam-mistakes.html As always, you can find the podcast here or on iTunes: http://sfspodcast.libsyn.com And if you have any feedback, drop us a comment or find us at @SFSPodcast on Twitter. |
