Security Now 634: IoT Flash Botnets


Listen Later

This week we discuss some ROCA fallout specifics, an example of PRNG misuse, the Kaspersky Lab controversy, a DNS security initiative for Android, another compromised download occurrence, a browser-based cryptocurrency miner for us to play with... and Google considering blocking them natively, other new protections coming to Chrome, an update on Marcus Hutchins, Microsoft's "TruePlay" being added to the Win10 fall creators update, some interesting "Loopback" from our terrific listeners... and then we take a closer look at the rapidly growing threat of IoT-based "Flash Botnets."

We invite you to read our show notes.
