Earlier this year, Paul Ferrillo and Chris Veltsos recorded a nine-part podcast series complementing their book release, “Take Back Control of Your Cybersecurity Now.” Now, Paul and Chris are back for a monthly check-in to talk with IBM’s Mitch Mayne about current topics in security.

Summer is meant to be a time for blockbuster movies and TV spectaculars, but were hackers the big winner of the 2017 season? In this podcast, Paul and Chris discuss the media hacks of 2017, emphasizing the role played by production companies and other third-party vendors.

Listen now to learn:
