We unpack how some password managers could be tricked into coughing up your secrets and techniques, with a clickjacking sleight-of-hand, what web site house owners can do to stop it, and lock down your private password vault.

Then we time-hope to the post-quantum scramble: “harvest-now, decrypt later”, Microsoft’s 2033 quantum-safe pledge, and whether or not your printer will survive the replace apocalypse.

All this, plus a gloriously dodgy URL “shadyfier,” and turning the long-lasting iMac G4 into a contemporary media hub.

All this and extra is mentioned within the newest version of the “Smashing Safety” podcast by cybersecurity veteran Graham Cluley, joined this week by particular visitor Thom Langford.

Warning: This podcast could comprise nuts, grownup themes, and impolite language.
