We Forgot the Basics of Cyber Hygiene: NordVPN's Human Firewall Warning

We Forgot the Basics of Cyber Hygiene: NordVPN's Human Firewall Warning

In the episode David and Marijus explore why he rejects "shiny" new coding languages like Zig in favor of boring reliability, and why corporate FOMO is driving dangerous security decisions.
