SecuraBit Episode 36 - The f0rb1dd3n Network

We are joined by Jayson Street to talk about his book, Disecting the Hack: The f0rb1dd3n

Network, that is due out soon. All Black Hat bags will have an excerpt from the book in them.

Additionally we get Jayson's input on the topic of the recent denial of service attacks not

coming from North Korea after all.

DJ Great Scott gives us an update on the social events at this years DEFCON.

Finally we cover media destruction policies. How do you decommission old hard disks? Do you

retain the ones from your copiers and fax machines? What about thumb drives?
