After leaving Sensepost, Haroon Meer set up Thinkst, an INFOSec research and consultancy organisation. To quote from the Thinkst site: "Thinkst was founded to respond to the simple (but often repeated ) call in infosec today: "We are not winning against X". Despite billions being spent worldwide, we are often not much better than we were 10 years ago. This process is not tenable.

Thinkst exists to work on difficult problems and solve them."

Haroon has just released the first episode of ThinkstScapes,  - a subscription based researched paper meant to find the signal in the clutter. In this particular document he focuses on the recent HBGary/Anonymous debacle. He joined Tony, Warren and Enlin in the studio to talk about ThinkstScapes, and to discuss the events themselves.
