Favorite Security podcasts

As I posted a few months ago I listen to a bunch of podcasts. Here are the security/privacy podcasts I listen to:
  1. Sans Internet Storm Daily Networking- It's a short daily update of security issues. It's more focused on vulnerabilities and major hacks. 
  2. Twiet-this week in enterprise tech. I find it more focused from a topic perspective. It does go into other topics being an enterprise tech podcast however it's very clear and concise in describing issues and trends. The presenters are people in industry, SEs, or tech journalists so they share interesting perspectives. 
  3. Enterprise Security Weekly-I started listening to this recently and I've found it to be pretty good and informative.
  4. Intercept-This covers privacy topics and was co-founded by Glenn Greenwald, who is best known as the journalist that Edward Snowden contacted. 
  5. Cigital Silver Bullet-Haven't listened to this in a while.
  6. Down the Security Rabbit Hole-Haven't listened to this in a while.
  7. CERT's Podcast Series: Series for Business Leaders- Haven't listened to this in a while.
  8. Decrypted
  9. Secureabit
  10. Security Now - I find this one to be too long and veers off topic.

UPDATE:Transition to new role

So I started my new role about 3 weeks ago, and so far so good. I'm already getting exposure to the regular issues of the department like IT asset management, vulnerability and audit reporting, working with/pestering PMs on audit issue remediation.

 I'm also working through my transition plan. I did that after reading the First 90 Days. The book talks about how to be successful in any sort of new role.

A few books that I'm reading or in the process of reading that I have found to be interesting/helpful are:
  • The First 90 Days - Watkins, Harvard Business Press
  • The 7C's of Consulting- Mick Cope (e-book available on Safari/O'Reilly)
  • Managing the Unexpected, Weick, Sutcliffe, Jossey-Bass, part of the University of Michigan Business School Series
  • several Harvard Business Review readings such as
    Reclaim Your job-Ghosal and Bruch
    Managing your Boss -Gabarro and Kotter
    Managing One's Self-Drucker
Also it looks like I'm going to be taking the CISSP and the CISA by the end of the year. So I'm going to have a very, very busy year.
