DtSR Episode 385 - Malware on the Lifeline

Send the hosts a message - try it now!Greetings! On this episode of the podcast we present to you an episode we recorded back in January (but then due to a storage error we lost temporarily) with Nathan Collier from Malwarebytes. Nathan reported some findings from his research that basically there was some pre-installed malware running around, impossible to uninstall, on low-cost mobile phones. That kind of villainy is unforgivable (praying on the weak!) so we wanted to hear the whole story...and then some. Here's one link to the full story, in case you're interested in reading it on your own... https://blog.malwarebytes.com/android/2020/01/united-states-government-funded-phones-come-pre-installed-with-unremovable-malware/ Guest: Nathan Collier - Malwarebytes Support the show>>> Please consider clicking the link above to support the show!-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=YouTube home: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLyo0dkKRvfVtWXjRxNISrhme1MgBj3C2U&si=scHDiTuLXSEQ9qHqLinkedIn Page: https://www.linkedin.com/company/down-the-security-rabbithole-podcast/X/Twitter: https://twitter.com/dtsr_podcast

DtSR Episode 384 - Zero Trust Redux 2020

Send the hosts a message - try it now!This week Rafal hosts Dr. Chase Cunningham, Forrester analyst and all-around security badass to redux Zero Trust. The last time we tackled the topic was Episode 222 with John Kindervag back in 2016 - so it's time to see what's new. Zero trust is more than just firewall rules, and it encompasses a lot of security technologies we don't even think about - so this update is a great primer for 2020.
