Network Security Podcast, Episode 125
The Skype gods definitely worked against us last night as David Mortman from Debix joined us to to talk about a new study the released on identity theft and children. No, you're 8 month old is stealing identities like I suspect that creepy kid from the ETrade commercials is, but due to both error and fraud a surprising number of children have financial histories they didn't know about. We also discuss last week's Microsoft emergency update, Bono frolicking on MySpace, and the usual TSA foibles. We had some audio issues today so we kept the podcast short to spare your ears as much as possible.
The Network Security Podcast, Episode 125
Show Notes:
- Debix sponsored research into the problem of children and identity theft. They are also hosting a webcast with the FBI on Wednesday, October 29th, at 3pm CDT.
- Microsoft released an out of cycle patch for a critical vulnerability.
- Bono showed up on some girl's MySpace page. Oops. At least he wasn't driving drunk without underwear and with an infant in his lap, like the usual MySpace divas.
Tonight's music is courtesy of George Thorogood and the Destroyers.
