I hate to say it, and we really tried to avoid it, but with Martin and Zach both traveling this week we weren’t able to pull things together to record a show.

Don’t worry, we’ll double up next week to make up for it.

(Just kidding).

Somehow we’ve managed to get Martin, Rich, and me together on a fairly regular basis. Pretty impressive (superhero-like, even). It seems as though I was full of more beans than usual, taking a few playful jabs at Rich (something about goat smuggling) and Martin (butterfly tattoos, if I recall correctly). While we had a bit of fun, and actually talked about security, I get the overwhelming sense that schedules are about to go haywire again. Oh, well. C’est la vie!

This is part 2 of a conversation that CSO Online Senior Editor Bill Brenner agreed to record with Martin, sparked by a few comments Joshua Corman made likening PCI to ‘No Child Left Behind”.  In Part 1, our cast of characters outlined some of their basic ideas on how PCI and compliance in general is affecting security.  Here in Part 2 we have a chance to rebut some of the points made in the first half.  This was a lot of fun for us and you may be seeing (hearing?) a smaller group of us get together on a monthly basis to keep this conversation going.

Did you ever do something that you knew wouldn’t end well, but you had to try it anyway?  That pretty well describes this week’s episode in a nutshell.  Martin’s at home, Zach’s at home, so of course Rich had to be gallivanting around the countryside playing with his Verizon Mifi, an iPhone and Skype.  Any one of those technologies by themselves have made grown podcasters cry, so we knew from the start this episode was doomed.  I’m glad to say we got a show out of this afternoon’s comedy of errors, but it’d be a stretch to say this is in the top 5 shows so far this year.

The year 2010 is starting with a whimper, not a bang.  Yesterday morning it was announced that Securosis and Security Incite are merging, so we had Adrian Lane and Mike Rothman on the show to talk about the event.  A little over halfway through the show, Martin’s internet access suddenly died and the rest of the crew were left to have great fun at his expense.  There was not an earthquake, but rather a ‘backhaul issue’ at the ISP, whatever that means.  At least that’s better than a ‘backhoe issue’, which would probably involve a lot of fiber suddenly going dark.  In any case, we finished the show, but this not a great omen for the new year.  Unless you’re Rich and Zach, who found the whole thing very amusing.
