Playing Your Part
Introductions
– Your co-hosts are Andy Willingham and Martin Fisher. Two good, ole boys from the south who are living north of the Mason Dixon Line.
– News analysis and general yankee-ness brought to you by Steve Ragan
– Tonight Steve is out of the cage and back with us after a couple of weeks in the cage. We’ll have to see if he behaves himself this week.
– Follow us on Twitter (@SFSPodcast) where we’ll be tweeting about new episodes & interviews.
– The podcast is intended to fill the gap between the technical podcasts on security and Security Now. We’ll be focusing on operations, leadership, and news items that you may have missed the week before.
– We want the podcast to be friendly, funny, and make it so you can listen to it with your kids in the car. Nothing against Pauldotcom and Exotic Liability (we listen to them too!) but we wanted to do something a little bit different…

Where’s Amazon?
Amazon seems to have disappeared from the Interwebs today and they are strangely silent about it. This begs the question, “If you disappear from the cloud can anyone hear you scream?”
Martin’s Corner
Martin’s waxes philosophical on Cyberwar, Bruce Schnier, and all sort of mean, nasty, horrible things.
