Risky Business #134 -- Adam Boileau wraps Kiwicon

Topic Source:
This week's show is a bit different -- we're giving you a double dose of our regular guest Adam Boileau.
Following Kiwicon last weekend I checked in to Chez Boileau for a few nights, so we were able to do the news in his kitchen before I buggered off back to Australia.
While I was there we also had a chat about Kiwicon and discussed some of the presentations we saw. Adam is a key organiser of Kiwicon so it made sense to discuss it with him. Topics covered include GPS security, shared hosting insecurity, Linux kernel rootkit detection, hacking scientists and much, much more.

So I would love see you guys cover Paul's Talk from Kiwicon on "Hacking Scientists". In addition to always enjoying his talks, I am charged with all things security for a Biotech. My experience with the lab software is they are generally pretty hideous. Combine that with the .edu mentality of sharing information and you have quite a challenge (it takes some time for most scientists to realize they now work for a commercial company).
Anyways, keep up the good work gents!
