In this podcast Patrick Gray and Tom Uren talk about recent breaches of JumpCloud and Microsoft cloud services. It’s great they disclosed these incidents voluntarily, but cloud companies are so important that detailed postmortems shouldn’t be voluntary.

They also discuss the Biden administration’s cyber security strategy implementation plan and the opportunity to collect email destined for the US military by typo-squatting on the ‘.ml’ domain.

In this podcast Patrick Gray and Tom Uren talk about Citizen Lab’s analysis of WeChat’s behaviour and its privacy policy. That report misses the point: WeChat is an integral part of the PRC’s architecture of censorship and repression, and the Chinese government isn’t constrained by WeChat’s privacy policy.

They also discuss a new report that proposes a human-centred framework for assessing client-side Child Sexual Abuse Material (CSAM) detection technologies. It’s a step forward because it makes clearer the tradeoffs that are being made when these technologies are suggested.
