Smashing Security podcast #347: Trolls, military data, and the hitman and her

A woman’s attempt to hire an assassin online backfires badly, it’s scary just how cheap it is to buy information about US military personnel, and trolls and tattoos don’t mix.

All this and much much more is discussed in the latest edition of the “Smashing Security” podcast by cybersecurity veterans Graham Cluley and Carole Theriault, joined this week by The Cyberwire’s Dave Bittner.

Plus don’t miss our featured interview with Jason Meller of Kolide.
