PQ Show 64: OpenFlow TTPs Won’t Save Us with Rob Sherwood

On this Packet Pushers Priority Queue, we interview Rob Sherwood, CTO of Big Switch Networks, to gain an alternate view on OpenFlow TTPs (table type patterns). We first talked about TTPs in Weekly 220 in a discussion with Curt Beckmann back in January 2015. While Curt was fairly enthused that TTPs were going to move the ball forward, Rob is not convinced that TTPs are the long-term answer to make it easier for OpenFlow controllers and switches to share capabilities.

He's also the guy who got Andrew Aurenheimer out of jail so he could go and live a free life as a Nazi troll. (Is that really a win?) He also defended Lauri Love... basically if you're a hacker who's fallen foul of the CFAA, this is the guy you want on your team.

Risky Business #388 — Cyber shrinkery, IoT shenanigans and guest Troy Hunt

This week's feature interview is with Troy Hunt of HaveIBeenPwned.com. And he's noticing something pretty weird. It's common for people to deface websites for bragging rights, and yeah, it's not new that data dumps are the new bragging fodder. But it seems like these days attackers are seeing Troy's site as the definitive place to get cred. Now they'll steal a bunch of data and Troy is their first stop.
