Tue, 1 July 2008 Ever have one of those days where just about nothing seems to go
right? That just about describes today. Rich had to bail tonight due
to family obligations, though it sounds like it's the fun type of
obligation, not like having dinner with Aunt Ethel or something. We
had a guest lined up, but due to poor planning on our (read: my) part,
we didn't communicate the recording time well enough and that didn't
work out. Luckily Michael Santarcangelo
was available to join me tonight as co-host, so you aren't stuck
listening to me drone on by myself for half an hour or so. I know
that's what I used to do every week, but it just seems so much harder
than it used to. Network Security Podcast, Episode 110

Tue, 24 June 2008 Long podcast tonight! Rich and I are joined by Adam Shostack, bandleader of the Emergent Chaos Jazz Combo of the Blogosphere and co-author of The New School of Information Security.
Oh yeah, he does this thing during the day where he does security stuff
for some company called Microsoft. Adam's been around a while, done
more than a few things in his time, and has a lot to say about
security. Funny thing is, Rich and I both agree with most of what he
has to say; kinda scary isn't it? Show Notes:
Yes, even with only two articles, we almost went an hour. [display_podcast] Network Security Podcast, Episode 109, June 24, 2008

Tue, 17 June 2008 Back to just Rich and I this week. We're both running around like
chickens with out heads cut off, so we were lucky to be able to get a
show in this week. Coordinating with a guest would have been more than
we could handle. I'm sure we'll be back to a more normal schedule next
week. More 'hoping' than 'sure', but only one way to find out. Show Notes:

Tue, 10 June 2008 Long podcast today, but worth every moment of it. Author, blogger, podcaster and CTO of Cigital Software Security, Gary McGraw joined us on the podcast this week. This is the second time Gary has been on the podcast
and in another 100 or so podcasts I'm sure we'll be inviting him back.
I'm releasing this week's podcast early mostly because it was done
early. And I'll be on a plane tonight when I normally release the
podcast. Portland, here I come. Show notes:

Tue, 27 May 2008 Short show tonight folks, Rich is under the weather and our guest had
to bail at the last minute due to a personal emergency. We'll work at
getting Jeremiah Grossman from White Hat on in the next couple of
weeks. In the mean time Rich and I dug up a few news stories to talk
about. Show Notes:

Tue, 20 May 2008 Rich and I were joined tonight by a Phoenix local and fellow security
blogger, Adrian Lane. Adrian is the CTO at IPLocks and blogs about data
security at Information Centric Security. We had a lot of topics to
talk about tonight and wrapped up by spending a few minutes discussing
security at the information level. Go figure. Adrian brought two
decades worth of security experience (and ‘network hair’) to tonight’s
podcast. And to no one’s surprise, we had a privacy issue that we spent
more time on than we probably should have.

Tue, 13 May 2008 We're back, me from being ill, Rich from some alone time with his
wife. Nothing really interesting to talk about other than what's in
the show notes, so I'm not going to waste a lot of time writing about
it. Show Notes:

A few weeks ago I had a chance to have lunch with Mike Smith,author of the Guerilla CISO,
in Washington, DC. Mike’s area of expertise is FISMA and he’s an
experienced educator in the area. Mike feels about FISMA much like I do
about PCI: it’s not perfect, but it’s a heck of a lot better than what
came before.

Tue, 22 April 2008 Rich and I tried to make up for last week's podcast by keeping
things a little shorter tonight. The operative term of course is
'tried'; we managed to shave a couple of minutes off the podcast, but
that's about it. Tonight's theme was vulnerabilities in web sites,
ranging from the Obama site being hacked to Dan Kaminsky's latest DNS
issues and on to PCI requirement 6.6. There was a lot going on tonight
and we could have almost made a show from any one of these topics.

Tue, 15 April 2008 Rich and Martin review some of the events that went on at RSA,
including Rich's Analyst panel and Thursday morning's 'Avoiding the
Security Groundhog Day' panel. Neither of us were all that impressed
with the showroom floor or the keynote speeches given at RSA, but we
both enjoyed getting reacquainted with the security professionals we
tend to only catch up with at events like this. Finally we talked about
what events we'd go to in pursuit of furthering a burgeoning security
career. And just in case you're wondering where Episode 100
is, it was the live video we took last week at the Security Bloggers
Meetup. Not that anyone could have missed it, given the amount we've
been talking about it lately. Tonight's Music: Pride by Paula ToledoNetwork Security Podcast, Episode 101, April 15th, 2008
