Show Notes

This week we look at the NSA's announced forthcoming release of an internal powerful reverse engineering tool for examining and understanding other people's code; emergency out-of-cycle patches from both Adobe and Microsoft; and, yes, we do need to mention PewDiePie again. We also need to mention our prolific zero-day dropper SandboxEscaper, a new effort by the U.S. government to educate industry about the risks of cyberattacks, some welcome news on the ransomware front, some VERY welcome news of a new Windows 10 feature, and a note about a just-published side-channel attack on OS page caches. Then we'll wrap with an update on my work on SQRL and my discovery of a VERY impressive and free large file transmission and sharing facility.
