This week as we examine still another new Spectre processor speculation attack, some news on DRAM hammering attacks and mitigation, the consequences of freely available malware source code, the reemergence of concern over DNS rebinding attacks, Venmo's very public transaction log, more Russian shenanigans, the emergence of flash botnets, Apple continuing move of Chinese data to China, another (the 5th) Cisco secret backdoor found, an optional missing Windows patch from last week, a bit of Firefox news and piece of errata... and then we look at "The Data Transfer Project" which, I think, marks a major step of maturity for our industry.

We invite you to read our show notes.
