Network Security Podcast

I'm still recovering a bit from last night's dinner with the Microsoft Developers.  They were very nice to invite me to coming out party for Internet Explorer 7 Beta 2, but that meant I didn't get to sleep until almost midnight.  It was quite a lot of fun.   I got some audio feedback for tonight's show, and thanks to those of you who gave me suggestions for a new camera.  Hopefully I'll have a little more warning next time.

Tonight's music was Day of Reckoning by Amy Martin

I got a bit of a late start to the podast tonight, but thanks to a little Rockstar, I was awake throughout the whole thing.  Theres a lot of good stuff in tonight's podcast, and there's more good stuff coming up.  I'm trying to use Audacity again, because some of the things I've wanted to do are next to impossible in Propaganda.

Tonight's podcast is actually last night's podcast.  I'm headed into San Francisco shortly for a dinner with Jeremaih Owyang and a host of others.  We're getting together at the Thirsty Bear to meet Steve Rubel of Micro Persuasion fame.  This episode is short, but there was no way I was going to skip a podcast in order to go to the dinner.  I don't plan on getting home until 10:00 or 11:00 tonight and there was no way I was going to record the podcast then.  Did you know it usually takes me about three hours to record a 30 minute podcast?

A couple of weeks ago I had the pleasure of interviewing Alex Neihaus, the Vice President of Marketing for Astaro Internet Security.  Alex and Astaro are big supporters of podcasting and blogging and Alex spent half an hour talking to me about the Astaro Gateway appliances.

Here's episode 21 for you listening pleasure.  I decided to give you the regular weekly podcast tonight and I'll issue the Astaro interview as a standalone podcast in the next couple of days.  I once again forgot to hook up the iRiver before the podcast began, but I got lucky and didn't have to pay for my mistake.  I cover a lot of ground tonight, from patching to legislation to the firing process and hopefully there are a few things for you to think about.  And just in case you didn't know, when I say PCI, that's the Visa/Master Card Payment Card Industry Data Security Standards I'm referring to.

Tonight's music is Old Tom's Restless Bones by David Norris
