On this week’s show, Patrick Gray and Adam Boileau discuss the week’s cybersecurity news, including:

  • The SEC’s cyber incident reporting isn’t very exciting after all
  • China Telecom on the way to being thrown out of the US
  • The NSA/Cybercom might get two separate hats
  • The Cl0p ransomware crew are back and taking responsibility for the Cleo hacks
  • (Yet another) File upload bug in Struts makes Java admins weep
  • And much, much more.

This episode is sponsored by SpecterOps, who run a pretty top notch offsec/pentest team when they’re not busy making the Bloodhound Enterprise identity attack path enumeration software. SpecterOps’ Robby Winchester joins to talk about how pentest has changed, and how their customers get value from their testing.

This episode is also available Youtube.
