Cynic Minute #5
A little later than usual, but the cynic minute (creeping up to a minute and a half) is back talking about the RSA security breach and what do you do about your 2FA solution now?

Post-Holiday Blues
I've figured out why everyone in the office is so miserable. At first I thought it was a simple case of the post-holiday blues. Or perhaps they were regretting all the calories they'd consumed whilst socialising with family they'd rather not see. But the reality is that people are miserable because of security.
