Bring Back ‘Live’ Web Chats?
Summary: Brian Krebs asked readers whether to restart the roughly 50 bi-weekly live web chats he hosted between January 2008 and the end of 2009, and put the question to a reader poll. In the comment thread, readers largely argued for collecting questions and answering them in a post or podcast rather than a scheduled live chat, and Krebs answered one reader that no scanner should be trusted to detect all or even most malware, citing abysmally low detection rates for common samples like Zeus.
Key Takeaway: A security journalist's own readers said the live format did not fit their schedules and that information has to flow on their timetable - the same constraint your analysts face when a vendor schedules a briefing instead of publishing something they can read when it matters.
