A Tonight’s show is a bit longer than usual thanks to a segment with our wayward contributor Zach and an interview with Metasploit founder HD Moore . HD is now also the CSO of Rapid7 , making him quite the busy boy. And, since we can’t help ourselves, Rich and Martin still cover some of this week’s top stories.  Read More →
