Paul Ducklin of Sophos Australia joined me for the Chet Chat this week to talk about the weeks news. We also made some time at the end for the C-word (C-L-O-U-D).
First we talked about the large quantity of recent data breaches, primarily Sony. Paul had some rather good advice to those who think this might be a fun way to make a political statement… Don’t do it.
We also discussed whether the recent barrage of Mac malware has been a call for OS X users to take their heads out of the sand when it comes to securing their computers.
We had some feedback last week about a post Paul had made about a talk he was about to give on cloud security and our reader was disappointed that they weren’t in Sydney and would not be able to attend. This week we spent a few minutes discussing the cloud and ways it introduces risk and how you might use it more safely.
