Highlights from this week's show include...

• Richard addresses the question of whether we've addressed a fundamentally fatalistic attitude towards security
• The guys discuss whether the real perimeter, as we go into 2019
• Richard schools the guys on identity - and what it's not the perimeter, but something else
