A new interview, tech news, and insight from the podcast for IT pros at CSTechcast.com. This week we talk about smartphone and mobile device security with Dan Dearing, Vice President of marketing at Trust Digital. Find out more about Trust Digital at trustdigital.com. In the news, we discuss a kaleidoscope of a patch from Microsoft, social networking for G Men, Dell shutting down factories of their once high-flying made-to-order operations, a six-core server chip from Intel, and a recall of overheating Sony Vaio laptops. Comcast's FCC countersuit gets "The Worst Tech Move of the Week", Chrome, Firefox, and IE8 start up the browser wars once again when we take "A Closer Look", and "The Weekly Tech Tip" delves into the NETSH command.
