SN 432: Coin, Patent Trolls, and More




Security Now (Video HI) show

Summary: Hosts: Steve Gibson with Leo Laporte Following another week overfilled with interesting security-related news, Steve and Leo spend an hour and a half diving deeply into an updated (and likely very close to correct) understanding of the COIN payment card, news on the CryptoLocker front, a close look at a patent troll case that has so far done the wrong way, and much more.
