The Standard Deviant Security Podcast

Description: From the creator:  “We tend to be a little insular and forget that risk management has been around for hundreds of years (in the form of insurance, actuarial science, and economics) and wasn’t invented when someone decided to do a security risk assessment. Vulnerability disclosure, justifying security expenditures and botnet markets are actually new versions of the same issues economists have been studying for a very long time. An expert on human behavior can probably tell you more about why a phishing campaign was successful than a security professional. I want to hear from those people.
