  • Summary

  • Risky Business returns for its 19th year! Patrick Gray and Adam Boileau discuss the week’s cybersecurity news and there is a whole bunch of it. They discuss: The incoming Trump administration guts the CSRBBiden’s last cyber Executive Order has sensible things in itChina’s breach of the US Treasury gets our reluctant admirationRoss Ulbricht - the Dread Pirate Roberts of Silk Road fame - gets his Trump pardonNew year, same shameful comedy Forti- and Ivanti- bugsUS soldier behind the Snowflake hacks faces charges after a solid Krebs-ingAnd much, much (much! after a month off) more. This week’s episode is sponsored by Sandfly Security, who make a Linux EDR solution. Founder Craig Rowland joins to talk about how the Linux ecosystem struggles with its lack of standardised approaches to detection and response. If you’ve got a telco full of unix, and people are asking how much Salt Typhoon you’ve got in there… Sandfly’s tools are probably what you’re looking for. If you like your Business like us… - Risky - then we’re hiring! We’re looking for someone to help with audio and video production for our work, manage our socials, and if you’re also into the Cybers… even better. Position is remote, with a preference for timezones amenable to Australia/NZ. Drop us a line: editorial at risky.biz.
