Quiet week

No real topic this week, just some random musings.

Is anyone else out there tired of companies using Information Security/Cyber Security as a leader to get your information for sales calls? Especially white lists or videos from talks. You want to promote yourselves and companies fine, but you want ot be taken seriously in our field, then share information. If that information is worthwhile, people will respect your company more and be more likely to contact you about your products.

Is it just me or is it weird that people in our industry will call someone toxic, but then still talk with them through social media? If they are that toxic and you have serious moral issues with them, then cut them off, it is your right. Remember, don’t encourage through side behavior.

Finally, why do so many try to jump into the deep end without learning to swim first? I am no saint, mind you. Knowledge wise I am still on a massive learning curve, and ask stupid questions all the time.

Next week, there may or may not be a blog post. I’ll be at Derbycon, so feel free to come up and say hi if you see me there.
