  1. The intro track is from one of my favorite EDM artists: Zomby. The song is ‘Orion’, and it’s from the ‘With Love’ album. Highly recommended if you like chill EDM.

I spend 5-20 hours a week devouring books, RSS feeds, podcasts, and articles about what's happening—and what's coming—in security and technology.

Then every Sunday I send the best of what I find to around 25,000 subscribers.
