Show Notes

Matthew ran a little late this weekend, so apologies for being a day late deploying the latest security news into your earhole!

We talk Solarwinds and a lawsuit, then a little SEC action.  Then we discuss the ever decreasing time frame to patch new vulnerabilities, and we lead off with a little conspiracy theory action about a government contractor that just might be using their privileged position for some man in the middle for the gov.  I mean, what legitimate government contractor ISN'T run out of a UPS Store?
