  • Pwnit and Ownit
    Security Now! Transcript of Episode #814 Page 1 of 26 Transcript of Episode #814 PwnIt and OwnIt Description: This week we start with some needed revisiting of previous major topics. We look at an additional remote port that Chrome will soon be blocking, and the need to change server ports if you're using it. We look again at Google's forthcoming FLoC non- tracking technology and a new test page put up by the EFF. We revisit the PHP GIT server hack now that it's been fully understood. We look at Cisco's eyebrow-raising decision not to update some end-of-life routers having newly revealed critical vulnerabilities, and we also examine another instance of the industry's failure to patch for years. Then, we conclude with a blow-by-blow, or hack-by-hack, walkthrough of last week's quite revealing and somewhat chilling Pwn2Own competition.

Steve Gibson is here with the answer to some critical questions. Why are Firefox and Chrome blocking port 10080, hmm? We'll also talk about FLoC, Google's Federated Learning of Cohorts technology. It's starting to roll out now, and he has a good way of figuring out if you're in the FLoC. And then it's a look at Pwn2Own, some fun exploits, some not-so- fun problems.

While it might not be as simple as iTunes (sad to say this but its the biggest Podcast Directory) it’s still not difficult to do.

Google music is a great place to find music, but it’s not that great for Podcasts. Honestly, I don’t know anyone who uses google music or “google podcasts” to listen to podcasts.

  • Become a Sponsor of the Sargassum Podcast
    The Sargassum Podcast PI: Dr. Franziska Elmer [email protected] Become a sponsor of the Sargassum podcast About the podcast These recent massive Sargassum beaching events have led to complex problems that cross international and cultural borders and wreak havoc across multiple ecosystems as well as disrupt international value chains associated with high-value marine products. Simultaneously, small scale solutions to these problems have begun to emerge in many locations. Caribbean governments and local stakeholders working on Sargassum are at a stage where they prioritize regional information exchange and collaboration in order to develop the know-how to turn this negative threat into a positive opportunity. They also include local outreach as an important component of their strategy as they have realized that nearly all of the local communities impacted by these events have very little knowledge about this abundant macroalgae. The Sargassum Podcast wants to contribute to this effort through online interviews and discussions broadcast through The Sargassum Podcast and our YouTube Channel and four active social media accounts. Podcasting and social media yield the greatest short-term and long-term results in regard to current communication efforts. Social media provides an opportunity for a focused message to instantly reach interested people in a scalable way and podcasting is one of the most personal means of communications available today. Podcasts allow interested people to consume targeted content that is impactful long after a podcast episode is released. However, a podcast and social media accounts are only effective at disseminating information if the target audience knows about their existence and engages with it.

  • Subscribe to Podcasts You Love
    Subscribe to podcasts you love Podcasts are audio shows that you can choose to play anywhere, anytime for your listening pleasure. Why subscribe to a podcast? When you subscribe to a podcast, you will receive the latest podcast as it’s published. Each show is ‘home delivered’ to you for free. There’s no more technical searching required by you. That can be a bit nerve wracking when you first discover podcasts. Once you’ve subscribed, you no longer need to keep track of all your favourite podcasts. You don’t even have to remember what you listened to, or where you left off. Your podcast app will keep track of everything related to your favourite podcasts, and that saves you time and angst. New episodes will come directly to your phone or device, automatically. So, every time you go to the app, your new episodes will be patiently waiting for you. Depending on your phone and app settings, they might even be downloaded, so you’re all set to listen to a few hours on the plane, for example, when your phone is in flight mode. Really! Any decent podcast app will offer an easy way to subscribe to a podcast and then keep track of those subscriptions. That makes following and listening to your favourite podcasts dead easy. How does this work? Apple podcasts/iTunes Let’s have a look at Apple podcasts / iTunes. This is the most popular pod catcher out there. Apple podcasts/iTunes is growing faster than any other podcast app on the market. There are versions for both iPhone and desktop, and they can sync their settings using your Apple account, so it’s a decent environment to use for your listening if you have multiple devices.
