In addition to covering the end of the world, this week's Risky Business features Don Bailey of Lab Mouse Security on his excellent IoT blog post, written largely in response to a Daily Dave post by Dave Aitel on so-called "junk hacking".
This week's show is brought to you by Context Information Security, big thanks to them! And in this week's sponsor interview we chat with Context's director of research Michael Jordon about his adventures in getting old computer games to work on printer screens. It's actually pretty cool.
