ThinkstScapes Research Roundup - Q3 - 2021

Introduction Episode 1 - 2021/Q3 Thinkst Trends and Takeaways is a show released in conjunction with ThinkstScapes , a written quarterly review of information security research published in both industry and academic venues. Thinkst Labs allocates time to tracking industry research so you don’t have to, specifically looking for novel and unusual work that is impactful--this is not simply a report on bugs or vulnerabilities. Work covered here will include both offensive and defensive topics, and we explore academic publications with the same gusto as industry work. Our target listeners are primarily security practitioners in organizations who are tasked with defending their turf, but offensive-minded folks will also be exposed to new ideas and research we’ve come across.
