Risky Business #394 — Matthew Green talks “crypto bans”
On this week's show we're chatting with Johns Hopkins University cryptographer Matthew Green about rumblings emanating out of DC with regard to "stopping encryption", whatever the hell that means.
In this week's sponsor interview we're chatting with Oliver Fay from Context about a paper they did in conjunction with UK's CERT about exploit kits. How much do they cost? Are there any that stick out as being particularly good? Or bad, depending on your point of view...
