Chronicles of True Risq

Description:

“Our dynamic duo represent two separate types of security focus - External and Embedded (consultant vs defender). Their focus as it pertains to “True Risk” is different yet similar in many ways. Find out which parts are similar and those that are different in tonight’s latest Episode of “Chronicles of True Risq: Maximum Loji”.”
