Bug hunter extraordinaire, Azimuth Security's Mark Dowd, joins us after the news to chat about that. We'll also have a quick chat with Josh Corman, an analyst with 451 group in the USA and co-founder of the Rugged Software initiative.
Adam Boileau, as always, stops by for a check of the week's news headlines.
