Trail of Bits

The Trail of Bits podcast explores the intersection of human intellect and computational power. Imagine having a couple of friends explain to you how they protect some of the world’s most precious data - friends who happen to be the world’s leading cyber security experts, and who know how to speak in plain, straightforward English. That’s what each episode of the Trail of Bits podcast is like. The only ads you’ll ever hear are for our free and open source software and tools.
