    DISCLAIMER: It's not that explicit, but you may want to use headphones if you're at work.

    ADDITIONAL DISCLAIMER: In case it is unclear, this is the story of 5 opinionated infosec pros who have sufficient opinions of their own they don't need to speak for anyone except themselves. Ok? Good.

            1. Hi LSD crew...just finished 0x1E again and again, well done! Many thanks.

              I am missing a bit the "central topic" what you had in earlier ones. What I mean is like in episode 0x14 about "Hardcore – Recovering from the Disaster you didn’t plan for" or "hiring". This was really interesting and gave some good insight. I understand quite a number of things are "common sense", but still, unfortunately quite a number (of the other?) things are not "common practice" and I think these need to be communicated.

              Cheers guysThomas

            2. Discussion - Keeping up with new technical developments
