A few technical issues, but what is a show without those? In this 3 hour episode, we've got quite a lot for you, so sit back and check out the links to the following items for your perusal.
Welcome to the Security Box, podcast 65. On this podcast, let's discuss an article we read after the release of last week's program in regards to Twitch and their recent breach we were alerted to during the live taping of the program. After that, we're going to cover more NCSAM and even have some news notes. We'll do news notes the same as we did last week, as it turned in to a lively discussion. I hope you'll enjoy the program, and thanks so much for listening!
