Listen "STIR/SHAKEN and Password Policies- Per Thorsheim"
Episode Synopsis
In this week's episode of the Security Repo Podcast, we turn our attention to STIR/SHAKEN, a requirement for US cell phone carriers that has been implemented to stop SPAM robocalls. We also look at password policies and research into how to make better passwords.
We are joined by Per Thorsheim. Per is the founder and main organizer of PasswordsCon, the first conference dedicated to passwords, pins and anything related to digital authentication. He has been working in infosec for 30 years, and claims to know your next password. His bio on Linkedin has more information if you’re interested.
