## Resource

Welcome to podcast 288, I'm hoping you'll enjoy this podcast. Why are we going after cybersecurity companies, and not the people who are actually doing the hacking? Articles I've read pose this question, and its your job to go find those. Next, Sound, Fury, And Nothing One Year After Equifax is discussed as we have more questions in regards to Equifax and one year later. Finally, Why don't we take a look at A Closer Look at the Locky Poser, PyLocky Ransomware as we learn about file types that are encrypted that I've never heard of. Contact information is at the end of the podcast, and I hope you enjoy this podcast.
