It's all fun and games until somehow you find yourself actually planning and not doing that whole "maybe we will, maybe we won't" thing. It's happening. We're back and making a habit of this!

Upcoming this week...

1. Lots of News
2. Breaches
3. SCADA / Cyber, cyber... etc.
4. finishing it off with DERPs/Mailbag (or Deep Dive)
5. And there are weekly Briefs - no arguing or discussion allowed

And if you've got commentary, please sent it to mailbag@liquidmatrix.org for us to check out.

DISCLAIMER: It's not that explicit, but you may want to use headphones if you're at work.

ADDITIONAL DISCLAIMER: In case it is unclear, this is the story of (approximately) 5 opinionated infosec pros who have sufficient opinions of their own they don't need to speak for anyone except themselves. Ok? Good.
