Malwlab's security podcasts: Mitigating Circumstances, a daily conversation show, and the Cyber Briefing.
Malwlab makes two security podcasts: a daily conversation show, and a short written threat briefing. New episodes land here and in your podcast app.
Mitigating Circumstances

Two people who have spent their careers inside security incidents sit down every day with a guest and talk about the biggest things happening in the industry, plus whatever happened to them since yesterday. Friends who happen to be experts, about 35 minutes, every day.
Your hosts
- Henrik Dahl spent years running incident response at a payments company and still keeps a ledger of every vendor statement that aged badly. Lives on Värmdö with his wife, a greyhound called Kernel, and a boat that is mostly a restoration project.
- Nadia Ferreira came up through red teaming and now does security research. Born in Porto, raised in Manchester, living in Stockholm, and losing an ongoing argument with her own smart home.
Every episode brings in a guest: negotiators, defenders, researchers and the occasional person who was there when it all went wrong.
