This week, after quickly filling Leo in on last week's two most important pieces of news, guided by some great questions and comments from our listeners, we're going to look into the operating of hardware security modules (HSMs), fast file hash calculations, browser identity segregation, the non-hysterical requirements for truly and securely erasing data from mass storage, a cool way of monitoring the approaching end of UNIX time, my plans to leave Twitter, and what I think will be a very interesting deep dive into cryptographic hashes and the value of deliberately creating hash collisions.
