Keeping up to date

James — Tue, 31 Oct 2017 10:18:34 GMT

How do you like to stay up to date / current with recent cyber / IT / IS security events? Podcasts, websites, twitter? Please share your favorites!

Personally, I follow a lot of security people on Twitter - you can follow me at http://www.twitter.com/james_mcquiggan

In the past year, I've started listening to podcasts during my daily commute to work and during the day. Here are a list of my favorite security podcasts

Daily

Cyberwire - https://thecyberwire.com/podcasts/
SANS Internet Storm Center - https://isc.sans.edu/podcast.html

Weekly

Smashing Security - https://www.smashingsecurity.com/
Down the Security Rabbithole: http://podcast.wh1t3rabbit.net/

Of course, there are also the well produced (ISC)2 Webinars that occur weekly! https://www.isc2.org/en/News-and-Events/Webinars/Security-Briefing

I would be curious to see what other podcasts or websites our members listen to on a regular basis!

We kind of discussed the same issue.

Following some discussion over on CISSPforum on the lack of material on legal aspects of security, I should mention the online forum Just Security. Although US-centric, it definitely has high-quality discussions of a variety of legal concepts related to the security field. The Website is one place to get the discussions, but you can also follow their Twitter feed.

Hi All

Some really good links, however, in general I simply do not have time to drawl through links, so I tend to get Google to do the trawling for me. I set up categories of alerts within Google, and several times a day I receive e-mail's consolidated with links - which helps me get on with normal work-life and balance. I also use a security intelligence link which is absolutely free, to also provide me notifications on new updates on particular areas that are of current interest.

Google Alerts come in handy in a variety of situations, and they're easy to set:

Go to google.com/alerts in your browser.
Enter a search term for the topic you want to track. ...
Choose Show Options to narrow the alert to a specific source, language, and/or region. ...
Select Create Alert.

I am sure others will have other suggestions.

Regards
