Joe Slowik and Katie Nickels are guest co-hosts in this week’s edition of the show. They join Patrick Gray to talk about:
- Mimecast having some stolen certificate, errr, “problems”
- The confusing reports about JetBrains
- Analysis of the malware used in the SolarWinds campaign
- Australian man arrested in Germany and charged with running DarkMarket
- The Great Deplatforming of 2021
This week’s show is brought to you by Gigamon.
If you’re a Gigamon shop you should really take a look at their ThreatInsight platform, that’s a no brainer. Even if you’re not, they’re real players in the network detection and response space. Joining us in this week’s sponsor interview is Jason Tesarz, a senior product manager for Gigamon ThreatInsight. He joined the show to talk about a few things, like how these days the NDR vendors are competing more around their workflows than trying to be the most comprehensive in detection.
Links to everything that we discussed are below and you can follow Patrick, Katie or Joe on Twitter if that’s your thing.
