Opening

[Evan] Hey there! Thank you for tuning in to this episode the UNSECURITY Podcast. This is episode 106, the date is November 17th 2020, and I’m your host, Evan Francen. Joining me as usual is my good friend and co-worker, Brad Nigh. Good morning Mr. Nigh.

[Brad] Cue Brad.

[Evan] Man, I haven’t talked to you since last week on the podcast. What’s up, what’s new?

[Brad] Cue Brad.

Quick Catchup

It’s 4th quarter, so I’m guessing we’re both running pretty low on fuel. Personally, I have a cruddy attitude this morning, so this’ll be fun.

Topics:

• Brad’s stuff. What’s he been up to, what’s he working on, and what’s a day in the life of Brad look like?
• Great talk with Oscar Minks (last week’s guest) yesterday morning; U.S. incident response capabilities, cyberinsurance brokenness, etc.
• Security Sh*t Show – what’s new here.
• The book (UNSECURITY) is now in the Cybersecurity Cannon!
• Maybe another thing or two.

Transition

Information Security @ Home

[Evan] So, this weekend, I figured I go grab another Raspberry Pi to play with. I want to build a plug and play home information security device. First thing, figure out how to compile a good inventory of everything on my home network.

This is where the story begins…

Topics:

• So, what’s the big deal?
• Taking inventory (what do you got?)
• What do we (Brad and I) do?
• Tools, devices, etc. that could help
• S2Me – Today and a sneak peek in v3
