Not Much This Time

January 18, 2018 By Michael Kavka Leave a Comment

So after the last 2 posts, This one is going to be pretty short.

The rage over certifications on twitter continued for a few days. It seems to have calmed down again. End result to me is, people are people and opinions are, well you know the rest of that old line.

Brakeing Down Security announced that Amanda Berlin (@infosystir) will be giving a version of the course she gave at the O’Riley conference “Disrupting the KillChain” Starting Feb 4 through their Slack channel. Cost is $90 for the live course and $40 for early access to the videos, if you do not want to do the live course but want to see it early. This should be a great course and thanks to Brakeing Down Security for coming up with inexpensive training for us in the infosec space. Hit her up on Twitter for access to the Slack.

Patches for Meltdown/Spectre are still causing issues all over the place. If you are patching for it, best to do it on a machine that can be reloaded from scratch.

That is all I have this week.
