OK, I am going to do a little self-pimping here. For those of you who have been reading my blog for a year or so, you probably know that I also blog over at Computerworld. But if you haven’t been around a while, or you just plain missed it, please go take a look when […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Well, if Mark at securityBuddha can do it, so can I? What am I talking about? Well, I am going to make this blog a more pure infosec blog, and I am going to start a personal blog. It will be called My Tangential Mind. It will still be at infosecplace.com, but I am adding […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Here’s another Taekwondo toe picture for you. I got this injury tonight. I think I got it while I was sparring. I’ll keep you posted on the progress of the bruise (’cause I am sure you want to know, right?) Still having fun, though. I got to run exercises today (all the stretches and pushups […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
As many of you know from my toe post a while back, I am taking Taekwondo. Well, I just tested for my yellow belt. I passed, so now I am officially a yellow belt (yea, it is a VERY low belt). AND, I tied for best test out of about 20 people testing for yellow […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Well, I am back from our annual sales kickoff meeting. The week was rough, but the content was great, especially the last day (we had a three of our top SE’s teaching our processes and how to be a more effective SE – the sales people were in there as well, so they got a […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Either my toe post turned everyone off, or announcing I am a Cowboys fan must have made some people mad. Either way, my Feedburner subscriptions went from the 130′s (been there for a few weeks) to 112 yesterday and 99 today (reflects the previous day). Anybody else see anything like this, or am I just […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Well, you are probably wondering why I have a picture of my feet on my blog. Well, it is really not my feet that are the subject of this post. Look at my left big toe. Look different than my right big toe? Maybe a little more colorful? That is what Taekwondo will do for […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Alan and Mitchell at the StillSecure After All These Years podcast interviewed me last week for their podcast. It is up here at Alan’s site and here at Mitchell’s site. I gave an update on my move to the channel, about honesty in selling security, the converging of the security professional and the general IT […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
…but this transition is taking most of my time. I promise I will be posting soon. I am travelling to Dallas for the rest of the week, so I will try to hit some stuff this weekend. Please keep coming back. This blog is not dead!!!! Really!!!!! Vet
When I was looking to make a move out of security management, I knew I had a few choices as to what I wanted to move into. I knew I wanted a pre-sales type of position, but I wasn’t sure about the type of company I wanted to work for. Should I go for a […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
…is crap like this. I am honestly tired of having to worry about keeping up with the latest security flaw and making sure my IPS has the latest filters and trying to make sure my network admin is keeping the patches up to date and yada yada yada. It just gets old. A while back, […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
I posted a few days back about some transition going on with me. So, I got some ‘splainin’ to do. Well, here it is. I am changing jobs. I know, what’s the big deal? But this is more than a job change for me. The last few years as an Information Security Manager have made […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Just some random thoughts here on why I write this security blog: Simply, I enjoy writing Simply, I enjoy security I enjoy people reading and commenting on my opinions It might make me famous one day! It helps me become a better security professional because I have to research to write viable and informed opinions […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Just to let all my thousands (yea, right) of loyal readers know, I am going through some transition right now. I will explain more fully later, but that is the reason I have not been posting this week (and the fact that I am preparing for our annual audit here at work). I hope to get some […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
If you have me on your blogroll, can you make sure to change your link to the new domain when you get the chance? Trying to get my link count back up. Because you know it is all about me, right? Thanks. Vet
When I first started blogging, I searched around the Web for advice on how to be a success. One of the keys, so I was told, was to post often. Another bit of advice I found was to NOT apologize if you don’t post for a while.  But I am going to ignore the above advice […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
You may see the theme of the blog change a few times in the next weeks. I am experimenting still over here, but I just didn’t have the patience with or the faith in Blogger with all the issues they have been experiencing. Please have patience with me. If you have any advice on a […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
I’m not sure anybody wants to see a full picture of me, but a friend (David Nester) sent me a blogging t-shirt, and I thought this was too cool. My 5 year old took the picture, so excuse the weird angle. Click on it to get the big picture (if you dare).   Vet
