It has been said that there are two certainties in life — death and taxes. When it comes to the Kaspersky Lab Transatlantic Cable podcast, you can add privacy, social network shaming, and ransomware to the list.
For this week’s edition, Dave and I head to the well of our bread-and-butter topics. First we kick it off with a pair of stories that focus on issues tied to Facebook and LinkedIn. From there, we look at our recent report from Securelist predicting what 2019 holds for cryptocurrency, and the recent tumbling price of Bitcoin. We give kudos to Germany for some router security guidance before ending up with a pair of healthcare-related stories that should give us all a bit of pause.
