Liquidmatrix Security Digest Podcast – Episode 9

Episode 9 — No Need For Syncizationhron

So we find ourselves again again Mattless. We skipped out last week cause of bad hair, bad mojo, conflu and bad karma — and $19.95 hotel internet (we have no budget and Canadian telco’s suck for roaming. )Also, this episode is a week late. The blame lies entirely with Ben’s computer/ISP issues. Either that or Ben is a closet Cylon and doesn’t want us to know.

Notes etc. to mailbag@liquidmatrix.org — we love to hear from you!

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 4 opinionated infosec pros who have sufficient opinions of their own they don’t need to speak for anyone except themselves. Ok? Good.
