Risky Business #140 -- Former NSA tech director, info assurance, Brian Snow
On this week's show we're joined by a very special guest -- Brian Snow.
Until his recent retirement, Brian was the technical director of information assurance for the United States National Security Agency. So, in other words he knows a few things about information security and in this week's show we cover a bunch of stuff with him -- everything from Google's recent trouble in China to e-voting, to cyrpto trust models and more.
That's after the news.
