Interesting... my company General Dynamics Mission Systems makes Win-T! And CPOF, and TIGR which work together. We depend on many Orion tools. Bandwidth is extremely important in contested environments. Nothing is more important than mission success so the network needs to work in the worst and most tough environments.…

Don't give them any hints on the multiple choice lol!

We do like our monitoring tools. Now to continue to try and keep alerts to a minimum! Like Jfrazier​ says it's really all about correlation of the events to make some sense of it.

You're absolutely right! rschroeder Besides how irritating all the alerts are the whole thing has way way way too many permissions for my liking either!

That's neat! GD did create the F-16 before my time but those were good ol' days! It's a good company. I've learned a lot.

Data on the move and at rest encryption is a big part of this I think.

I've been working on trying to help get LEM in better shape recently with UX. With the move to HTML5 it's an opportunity for improvement at the same time as the update. Also since I'm relatively new to LEM it's helping UX team learn where my newer user issues are.

It's leaning that way it sounds like.

The hint at the bottom made it even worse for me and I use NTA all the time... bummer I got it wrong somehow. I don't like this question. Don't take the hint literally or you'll get it wrong too...

WSUS for windows, RedHat Satellite Server for Linux, custom stuff for Solaris.

THIS! It's been in SW Service Desk for quite a while.

@"KMSigma.SWI" I fell into the saw thing years ago and made room for one of these. Well this when Sears was still around and... it was on sale. It was great but I sold it when I moved from the midwest in Ohio and headed out to Arizona. Bill

Nice bobmarley​ that's pretty cool actually considering.

Virtualization Manager really does some things well even if you have Operations Manger. Our main cloud guy here is a close friend of mine and he uses all of the tools... each has it strengths.

IKR... like where they heck would I put that thing? I suppose I could bring it to work lololol!

Check this out Thomas: Microsoft is now operating a data center under the sea — Quartz MS is testing putting datacenters under the sea!

sqlrockstar Here's one for you Thomas... check out one of our latest project experiments that just went down recently... the music is cool kinda too: General Dynamics Undersea Battlespace CONOPS for ANTX 2017 - YouTube

Try not to over think it... The answer is the most obvious one in the list.

I did find out recently that I'm getting to goto Cisco Live this summer in Orlando! I suppose some SolarWinds people will be there too!

I had that beer before too... it's pretty good. I'm totally and IPA freak these days. Sierra Nevada Torpedo is my regular beer and I also like Green Flash West Coast IPA.

This is going to finally now be something I'm dealing with too now that AWS and Azure both are creating clouds which can hold classified workloads by connecting with Dark Fiber and certified crypto.

Baby groot is pretty cool!

Dr. Strange was a pretty good Marvel movie this time! A lot of irony that he'd lose his hands which were his best tool at the time only to have to learn new tools instead.

One thing is if you have your engineering degree and an MBA that can be good to help secure officer positions withing fortune companies...

I need snmp only badly so nodes can be green behind firewalls which will never allow icmp to pass them. The areas aren't big enough to justify putting a poller in there by itself. As it is now all of these nodes I monitor are red down all the time according to NPM even though everything else about them is fine except for…

I saw that too... in the sample text!

One big part of the problem you don't hear them talking about is that while installed the software will route a bunch of information across servers in Russia. The backbone networks which traffic to these servers must traverse are known to be monitored by the FSB: Russian law requires telecommunications service providers…

Real voting machines aren't connected to the internet... hacking a webserver on the internet isn't exactly rocket science either. With metasploit it's actually pretty easy often.

By some miracle I'm all green this month... coming from someone that used to get every month green and got mission master award before at thwackcamp... not sure what that means?

I always dread backup related anything... I do have to deal with it though. We're on Commvault now... the software with a million different knobs on it. It's like the developers just can't stop adding features to the point it's almost out of control!
