hi sc-l, Ross Anderson's first Silver Bullet episode (episode 13) has consistently led the download totals since its release way back when. Over 25,000 people have listened to the episode and it remains very popular (either that or Ross is clicking on it an awful lot himself). In order to compete with Ross's record, we brought in a heavy hitter, Ross Anderson for episode 70. So, can Ross surpass Ross? Only time will tell.
Episode 70 is a superb conversation. I am always impressed and delighted with Ross's thoughtful responses to difficult questions. We talked about: the latest developments in Trusted Computing, the iterated "Prisoner's Dilemma" as an economic model and its relevance to computer security, information compartmentalization and Wikileaks, time and security, cyberwar versus cybercrime, and Stuxnet. http://www.cigital.com/silver-bullet/show-070/ If you're on this list and you have no idea who Ross is, go immediately and order "Security Engineering" which is hands down the best computer security book ever written. Hope you enjoy our first ever Silver Bullet repeat. gem company www.cigital.com blog www.cigital.com/justiceleague book www.swsec.com _______________________________________________ Secure Coding mailing list (SC-L) SC-L@securecoding.org List information, subscriptions, etc - http://krvw.com/mailman/listinfo/sc-l List charter available at - http://www.securecoding.org/list/charter.php SC-L is hosted and moderated by KRvW Associates, LLC (http://www.KRvW.com) as a free, non-commercial service to the software security community.
