This week's show was recorded at the Ruxcon Breakpoint security conference at the Intercontinental Hotel in Melbourne. So this week's feature interview is a chat with Jonathan Brossard of Toucan Security, we're talking to him about his presentation on bypassing and generally messing with sandbox malware scanners. Poking the FireEye! That's a fun chat.
This week's show is brought to you by HackLabs, the Australian penetration testing firm. So in this week's sponsor interview we chat with HackLabs head honcho Chris Gatford about an early implementation of an over-the-'net NFC authentication scheme developed by IBM Switzerland. Will it catch on? That's coming up a bit later.
