Risky Business #366 -- Software defined networking security

That's a mighty fancy network controller you've got there pal...
14 May 2015 » Risky Business

On this week's show we're chatting with Dave Jorm of IIX -- International Internet Exchange. We're previewing his upcoming AusCERT talk all about software defined networking security. It's fancy tech, but there are some interesting little quirks CSOs should definitely be across.

This week's show is sponsored by Senetas, big thanks to them. Senetas CTO Julian Fay is this week's sponsor guest. We talk about those horrible Open Smart Grid bugs and a few other things, that's coming up later.

Adam Boileau, as usual, joins the show to discuss the week's news headlines.

Don't forget you can now support the Risky Business page via our Patreon campaign.

Oh, and do add Patrick and Adam on Twitter if that's your thing.
