Learning about Cybersecurity from an Unnatural World Radio 4 on Security: Bio, Cyber or otherwise… I was listening to the rerun of File On 4[1] this evening, and a chap from the FBI said something very sensible about Cybersecurity.

Why are US economy stats being used to suggest an impending UK recovery, when there is a US election due soon? Duh?

And this, boys and girls, is why when traveling any distance we shut our Macs totally down #security
Yes, it is possible to hack a Mac through the new DisplayPort/Thunderbolt interface, exactly the same way it is possible to hack Macs and PCs through FireWire interfaces. How?

IEEE blows it on the Security & Privacy copyright agreement # HT @geoffarnold
