It's not often that we get to hear from people like Joe Franzi. He's been working in Australia's defence and intelligence community for more than 37 years. Most recently, that's been with the ASD, formerly the Defence Signals Directorate (DSD), Australia's equivalent to, and partner with, the US National Security Agency.

The ASD isn't just cyber spies. Like the NSA, it's also responsible for defending government, military and other critical communications networks. That's where Franzi currently fits in, and for the last year his team has been the defence-sector contribution to the Australia Cyber Security Centre (ACSC), opened a year ago.

A spoiler: there's no grand secrets in this interview. Maybe next time. But what you will hear is some intelligent comments about risk management -- including a view on whether Australia's new prime minster Malcolm Turnbull should really be using commercial email services -- and about the cultural issues that come up when you put together a cyber defence team from disparate organisations.

This interview was recorded on Thursday 15 October 2015 in Melbourne, Australia, during the annual conference of the Australian Information Security Association (AISA).

In this first episode of series two, it's a break from the usual long-form interview format to bring you a panel discussion. Joining me, Stilgherrian, are: Michael McKinnon, social media and security awareness director for AVG Technologies AU; and Darren Pauli, security reporter for The Register.

There's also a conversation with Dr Vanessa Teague, a cryptographer from the University of Melbourne, about the security of electronic voting systems.

The panel conversation was recorded on 31 October 2015, with both Michael McKinnon and Darren Pauli at their homes in Melbourne -- which is why you can hear chickens and dogs. The interview with Vanessa Teague was recorded on 30 October 2015.
