Beers with Talos EP 18: Kitties in My Blockchain, Obfuscating Pronunciations, and Other Security Stuff
Summary: Cisco Talos released episode 18 of the Beers with Talos podcast, its last full episode of the year, after the first 17 episodes were downloaded more than 200,000 times in 2017. The episode includes two roundtables, a bonus rant, segments on PyREBox winning the Volatility Plugin Contest, favorite security stories of 2017, obfuscation in networks and samples, and a discussion of blockchain and CryptoKitties.
Bottom line: The episode's own numbers set the stakes: 200,000 downloads of 17 episodes in a single year shows how far practitioner-level security commentary now travels, and the agenda treats network obfuscation and blockchain alongside basics like starting with security.
