******Here's a link to the Risky Business listener survey. Please take some time to fill it in! It'll really help the show!********
On this week's show we're checking in with HD Moore. He's left Rapid7 after six years and he'll be along to fill us in on his future plans in this week's feature interview. He'll also be reassuring all you Metasploit users out there that he'll be staying involved. He'll talk about a couple of absolutely awful bugs and he'll also weigh in on NorseGate: The implosion of the world's most cybery cyber advanced threat intelligence derpa derpa firm.
This week's show is brought to you by an Australian security consultancy, HackLabs. It's probably worth noting for our American friends that the Australian exchange rate has shifted pretty substantially over the last six months or so... so Australia might be a pretty good place for you to send some app review work!
In this week's sponsor interview HackLabs founder and head honcho Chris Gatford joins us to discuss strategies for administering unmaintained and hideously vulnerable enterprise apps.
Microsoft has end-of-lifed a stack of old IE versions, Oracle is killing the Java browser plugin... this will leave a lot of legacy apps marooned. So what can you do?
Adam Boileau joins us, as always, to discuss the week's security news. He also discusses Java deserialisation attacks that are shaping up as a major attack vector for 2016.
Oh, and do add Patrick and Adam on Twitter if that's your thing.
