SecuraBit before it Bytes

SecuraByte Episode 1: DNS Haiku

Today we introduce a new portion of the show: SecuraBytes. SecuraBytes are unannounced episodes, they could be last minute interviews or just more beer induced security speak. So, without further ado, here is the first SecuraByte from the SecuraBit Podcast.

“Introducing haiku-DNS: [laughing corruption collapsing kittens gallop nectars forgiving] = usa.gov” - Chris

Wesley McGrew of McGrew Security, Martin McKeay of the Network Security Blog / Podcast, and some guy named Joel joined Rob Fuller and Anthony Gartner last night to discuss the DNS vulnerability leakage that happened about quitting time yesterday (7/21). We discuss the leak, how the vulnerability works, mitigating, and the potential it has on mass scales. Every one of the gentlemen that joined us, and we here at SecuraBit urge you to patch as soon as possible. If you need further information, please check the following links:
