I have to agree with Jfrazier​, these links are always an interesting break from the nrom.

Well written and on point. Thank you

Really enjoyed the comparison between IBM and Idol. I have often had the same thought process about people who have earned their PhD in a given field of study. Does the effort and monetary investment in achieving the advanced degree color the results of their research?

Congratulations bpfrombp‌

I don't disagree with that. My logs back it up.

Great write up. We really need this tool.

If not GPA, what measuring stick do we use. Standardized tests? SOL's?

Thank you for sharing.

Jfrazier​ you are probably right. My computer forensics professor was an FBI special agent. He arranged for our class to take a tour of Quantico, which included their computer forensics lab. So many cool toys and some really bright people. It would be interesting to see what they have now along the lines of…

Brackets are always great fun. Thank you wabbott​!

Very good write up. I'm not doing interviews in my current job. However, I will keep this in mind for future interviews.

We aren't even looking at Openstack.

Thank you maria.bungau​ for everything you do.

I make sure management is aware that we are not in compliance, pick your compliance requirement, and give solutions and/or mitigations we can use. I try to give my preferred solution and a few others. The others will include options that are less expensive out of the box, but more labor intensive, and more expensive out of…

So for next month.....Holiday theme? Star Wars theme?

Thank you!!

Faraday paint?

These all sound like really good reads. Thanks, adatole​

Nice. Looking forward to the full report.

Yep. Looks like question 14 is hung up.

Hacking frees the mind

I have seen the e-mail list for our bicycle club. We have a few AOL e-mail addresses still. I didn't even know AOL was still around.

A good layer 7 firewall with DPI is well worth the cost. It has caught many things that IDS's missed.

Always stay hungry. Always be ready to learn the next new thing. The only limiting factor is you.
