WatchGuard Security Week in Review: Episode 48 – 0day Updates

January 19, 2013 By Corey Nachreiner

0Day Updates, Oracle Patches, and Mobile Botnets

Better late than never, right?

This week’s security video summary comes a tad late due to my travel schedule this week. It covers updates on the two latest zero day exploits, Oracle’s critical patch update, and stories about a mobile phone botnet and US power plant breach. Click play below to watch the short episode, or check out the References for more details.

Next week’s episode may also post at a weird time due to continued travel.

(Episode Runtime: 5:11)
