Episode 0x23 -- Post RSA Actual News
Recovery takes time. There has not been enough time.
There's really not anything significant to note off the top. There's much going on in the world of infosec. I wish that it weren't as true, but even with the wildness of RSA, the cybers never sleep.
You might want to stay until the end of the show to hear about a CONTEST and something even cooler...

DISCLAIMER: It's not that explicit, but you may want to use headphones if you're at work.
ADDITIONAL DISCLAIMER: In case it is unclear, this is the story of 5 opinionated infosec pros who have sufficient opinions of their own they don't need to speak for anyone except themselves. Ok? Good.
