Tonight's podcast is an interview with Marc Maifrett, Chief Technology Officer for Eeye Digital Security.  I also talk a little bit about a couple of the issues that caught my attention this week, a paper on the Point of Sales vulnerabilities and the recent Sony rootkit on a USB stick.  One thing I forgot to mention in the podcast is that Paul and Larry sent me a signed copy of their book, Linksys WRT54G Ultimate Hacking.  I'm planning on turning my spare WRT54G (version 6) into a VPN server in the not too distant future, so that next time I go to an event like Defcon, I'm a little less worried about accessing the Internet.

Winn Schwartau is a character and the brains behind Security Jeopardy every year at Defcon.  I met him at the event briefly this year and was able to talk him into giving me an interview for the podcast.  Of course, getting him to do the interview was as easy as asking, but setting up the call was a bit of a comedy of errors.  This interview was recorded Sunday, August 19th.

Show Notes:

  • BaySec and CitySec - Attend one near you, just for the networking opportunities.  It's an informal meeting of security professionals getting together to talk.
  • Security Round TableSecurity Career Success
  • Pearl Harbor dot Com - One of Winn's books.  I haven't watched the last two Die Hard movies, so send me an email if you read the book and seen the movie.
  • Tonight's Music:  I'm no Superman by DualCore

The Security Round Table isn't dead!  It's been a busy last few months, but the latest episode is now available for download.  The audio's a little rough, so we're searching for an alternative to Skype for recording.  We're already planning the next session, so hopefully there won't be any more large gaps between episodes.

We had an excellent panel together to talk about how you can build a successful security career, with Michael Santarcangelo, Mike Murray, Dan Sweet and Ron Vereggen.  Any one of these gentlemen would be an outstanding career coach by themselves, but having them all together on one phone call made for an exceptionally enlightening session.  I add a little flavor as someone who's in the middle of a job search right now. There's a lot of good information here, whether you've already got a career in security or are contemplating one.

 Four years of blogging as of today!  Thanks to everyone who's supported me while I've been doing it and hello to all the friends I've made thanks to the blog.  Looking forward to several more years of blogging to come.  Unless someone decides to pay me a large amount of money to stop blogging that is.  Tonight is my wrap up of Black Hat, Defcon and Linux World, all of which were interesting for various reasons.  Thanks again to Tinfoil for making it possible for me to attend!

Getting ready for the next week of conventions, with the end of Black Hat, all of Defcon and Linux World next week.  If you're at any of these events, look me up, though I'm already pretty booked for the entire week.  I think I have some time still free Saturday and Sunday night, but I'm sure those will fill up once I get to the event.  Some day I'm going to do a blooper show of all the mistakes I make while recording a podcast; there was a lot of editing to do tonight.
