We've got a great feature interview in this week's show with a computer science undergrad in the US who worked on a paper dealing with GPS security. You'll find out how you can melt down power lines with GPS haxx! Fun for the whole family!
This week's show is sponsored by Tenable Network Security. We'll be having Tenable product manager Jack Daniel on the line to talk about the death of periodical vulnerbility scanning. Apparently continuous scanning is all the rage these days!
I've spent the entire week down with the manflu, as you will probably hear, so apologies if the energy levels are down a bit this week.
