   Education, Certifications, and sipping on the Socials

   I have had a lot of questions over the years about how to proceed with a career, education, and certifications. So, I give my take on these and what they mean relative to my life experiences. Individual mileage may vary. I also discuss the need to have a public facing social media presence that is active and consistent. Hide the private Socials and search to see what actually shows up when searching for yourself. Your future employers will. Just sayin'.

   "Stupid Users" ... no, not those users, the other "stupid users"

   In this week's episode, I chat with R. Brady Frost about the little plumber vs the gigantic rock. Then we move in to a discussion about the fallacy of stupid users with some great stories of stupid things done by those of us who really should know better. The moral of the story, is that we are all human and nothing will ever change that. Instead, we need to be prepared for when humans are human. Hosted on Acast.

    Who the F&ck is Evil Steve? Part 1

    Episode 3: Who the Fuck is Evil Steve Picking up from Episode 2: Good Idea Fairy Hunting we continue exploring the concept of security as a people problem. This week we stop to take a moment to focus on the Who rather than the What is attacking us. In CyberSecurity, we tend to get caught up in things that happen to us, that we forget that it is actually a person attacking us. Learning more about who wants the information we have will tell us the ways they go about stealing it. This gives us information to better protect our assets and begin active threat hunting. The show is about 15 minutes long. Links to information about Threat Actors listed below: https://www.cisa.gov/ https://www.cisa.gov/cybersecurity https://www.cisa.gov/cert https://www.csoonline.com/article/3619011/the-10-most-dangerous-cyber-threat-actors.html https://threatmap.checkpoint.com/ Hosted on Acast.
