Risky Business #280 -- South Africa edition

09 May 2013 » Risky Business

This week's show was being produced on the road so it's a bit of a different format -- I did a longer than usual news panel session from the conference floor!

Our news discussion panel consists of:

The Grugq
Dominic White, SensePost
Charl van der Walt, SensePost
Andrew MacPherson, Paterva (Maltego)

After that we've got this week's sponsor interview with Peleus Uhley of Adobe.

Adobe is this week's sponsor, big thanks to them, and Peleus joins the show to talk about throwing a spanner in the works of mass malware customisation. We look at some of the approaches large vendors are using these days to disrupt the development lifecycle of the bad guys. It's interesting stuff and it's after the news.
