Working is a classified environment, we are exempt from wireless networking and the multitude of challenges that go with it.

Agreed that requirements are number one. Great job verbalizing my thought process when taking on a new project.

I really liked this post. I had not thought to use SED or AWK for SolarWind's logs, but why not? Time to dust these tools off and put them to work.

Oh yes, Know the Network, Be the Network on a T-shirt. That thought never occurred to me, seriously. Great idea silverbacksays​

Great analogy. So we smile and press on.

As always, great reads. Thanks. Love the Apple store theft.

T'was fun! What's next?

Great write up. As a network security guy, my thoughts automatically turn to the dark side. Delta isn't the first airline in 2016 with a crippling outage and there are anti-capitalist groups out there that would love to take down an airline.

Good read. Thanks for posting.

Great for the home test bed.

More people in Austin? More reasons to own a good bike for commuting.

Love this. You can't identify abnormal, if you don't know what normal looks like. Also, get rid of the weeds. If the logs are showing a misconfigured server doing anything incorrectly, fix the problem! Get rid of the noise so you can see the grass through the weeds.

It has been proven that language does evolve over time. I think what we are seeing is a de-evolution of language. Cave paintings have been replaced by emotocons.

I did not make it the RSA conference, wrong coast. Thank you though for the threat intel link. It was a good read.

Love it!

RTFM, Read the white paper, Read the tech forum, Read the security blog, Just read.

Absolutely right.

Awesome picture!

I want to believe that Microsoft is doing all of this for good. However, I strongly believe that there is no such thing as a white hat hacker. Data gathered can always be used for devious purposes. This has been proven time after time.

Excellent check list

Working on my CEH as well. Then I will attack the CISSP.

Yes, comments. Whether coding, scripting, or just writing a long ACL.

So true. Part of the problem is with management within the government. Far too many don't keep up with current technology and are more concerned with putting a check in a check box, than actually securing the network.

Love the holistic view. One must know the network, be the network, to successfully monitor the network.

The effort to be as stupid resistant as possible and still be functional.

Automate where possible. Automate the mundane and boring tasks, allowing you more time to innovate.
