The Risky Biz main show returns from a break to the traditional internet-melting mess that happens whenever Patrick Gray takes a holiday. Pat and Adam Boileau talk through the week’s security news, including:

  • Oh Crowdstrike, no, oh no, honey, no
  • AT&T stored call records on Snowflake and you’ll never guess what happened next
  • Squarespace buys Google Domains and makes a hash of it
  • Some but not all of the SECs case against Solarwinds gets thrown out
  • Pity the incident responders digging through a terabyte of Disney Slack dumps
  • Internet Explorer rises from the grave, and it wants SHELLS RAAAAARGH SSHHEEELLLS
  • And much, much more.

This week’s show is brought to you by Sublime Security, a flexible and modern email security platform. If you’re sick of using a black box email security solution, Sublime is a terrific option for you.
