About

Welcome to Risky.biz.

Launched in March, 2009, Risky.biz is a source of high-quality information security related content.

Risky.biz was born of the Risky Business security podcast, which first "aired" in February 2007. Since then, Risky Business has published over 100 episodes and developed a significant following among security professionals at the peak of the profession.

In addition to the weekly Risky Business podcast, on this site you'll find recorded conference presentations and single-shot interviews in our second podcast, RB2.

We're ramping up our video section, and if you want your content the old fashioned way you can always read our blog, which features contributiing writers from every corner of the information security industry.

This section is edited by veteran security journalist Patrick Gray. He's written for Wired.com, The Sydney Morning Herald, The Age, BusinessWeek, The Bulletin Magazine, SecurityFocus and more. Gray will also contribute exclusive breaking news content to the Risky.biz site.

Contributors include:

• Former AFP team leader of investigations Nigel Phair
• Security researcher and freelance consultant Metlstorm
• TSCM specialist Les Goldsmith
• RaceToZero organiser Bogan
• Senior iDefense threat analyst Kimberly Zenz
• ...and many, many more...

We've also got forums where you can join the conversation and connect with your peers.

We hope you like Risky.biz... but if there's something you don't like about our site, feel free to attack us in the forums or send us an e-mail via the site's contact form.
