Procrastination pays off again! A new #HiFi portable music player with #HibyOS was released.

My main gripe with companies like this is that they poop out hardware and never keep the software up-to-date. These do have WiFi and BT, along with a few applications for streaming services. Thus, they are potentially volunerable.

They are seriously still selling an older model with #android 8. Shame.

That's why I figure a stripped down #Linux distro can't be as bad.

@estherschindler do think I remember this Q from my project management exam
#PMP

I'm determined to not wait until the absolute last minute to get my #PMP PDUs done. 600+ days to renewal, and I am 1/4 of the way there.

(boy some of this stuff is as dry as pine needles)

I realize that I should probably be looking at #pmp PDUs that are either of interest or relevant to job responsibilities, but I am letting LinkedIn Learning suggest videos. Interesting way to learn about topics I will likely never use (looking at you Project Online Reporting witjh Power BI).

So after recent discussions in the meat-space and online with sec folks, they appear split on the usefulness of a CISSP in getting a #infosec #GRC role, and they also appear split on if going after a CISSP is a wise move if I can't guarantee my experience can be validated (long story, not involving fraud). And I'm not sure how I feel about the "have a CISSP vouch for you" thing.

A bonus of sorts is that some hiring managers look favorably on candidates with #pmp due to the large amount of project work in GRC and previous exposure to risk management,

Given all that, I will probably go with studying for Sec+ until I stop waffling on what to do. If nothing else, the Sec+ will reduce my CISSP work requirement by a year if I turn out to be undocumented.

Any #projectmanagement folks out there? My partner is looking for a career change and any advice on how to start would be appreciated!

I'll be real: I bogged down in the second chapter of this #pmp guide, all about "assessing project needs". The holidays didn't help.

A lot of the material seems to complicate what feels like it should be straightforward? It goes into painstaking detail about knowledge areas and process groups ... which are different ways of looking at the same material. Potentially helpful, potentially overkill.

The project viability math was cool. Straightforward to understand. Definitely the hidden gem in the chapter.

Tragically little space is spent discussing maintaining the documentation; basically, accessibility and version control. What about data retention? Encryption? Security and privacy requirements?

The case study introduced is cute.

Progress: 2/12 chapters. 70% on review questions, despite my holiday break. Unclear what that means about either me or the material.

I'm looking into getting some #certifications while I have free time between jobs. Based on some initial research, it looks like both #ITIL and #PMP should be fairly straightforward for me, although I'm not certain about whether either would be worth the time and expense. Does anyone have any opinions on these certs, or other ones that might be more appropriate for a manager in #IT or #Infosec ? I'm still investigating getting a #CISSP, which is another one I'm vaguely familiar with.

Is #pmp worth it for a #tpm? I believe so, but the reasons why may not be what you expect. Here's the article on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/pmp-worth-joshua-teter-pmp

I've been silently following & observing for a couple weeks, so it appears I'm overdue for an #introduction post.

Professionally, I've been #BlueTeam #infosec for about 16 years. I've evolved into more of a policy & guidance roll over the years, but I'm also still the #incidentresponse lead. I'll try to share what I can when I can.

The first #Derbycon was my first infosec conference I attended. The second through final, I was a volunteer. I've also volunteered for #CircleCityCon every year except their 2nd.

I'm a #USNavy #veteran, 4x college #dropout who had no career direction and eventually got an AAS degree in network administration in my 30s. I was working for an employer who had no IT security at the time, so I raised my hand and started my infosec career. I collect IT certs like kids collect pokemon but never submit CPEs - I just move on to another cert. I've had 7 #GIAC certs at this point (8th pending), but only 2 are currently active. Also have expired #PMP, #CISSP, and... lots of lesser stuff.

Apparently, I make a pretty damn good #cheesecake. Also a serviceable #mixology home bartender.

I've completed 7-ish(?) #marathon and a handful of half...but weight gain and age have kept me from adding any in the last 4 years. Also have a decent bike that I ride on a stand more than I do outdoors.

Most Wednesday evenings you can catch me at #Zanzabar for the Louisville #Cartoonist Society weekly "Drink and Draw." I don't draw, but I have a few friends who do and I enjoy practicing the drinking part.

Married, no kids. Both me and my pups (3 of them) are #snipped.

My politics trend very #liberal and I try to back that up with actions and financial support.

Lowercase 'a' #agile has been so watered down that it loses any meaning. I avoid the term agile or any other loaded term associated with it like iterating, sprint, retro, stand up, and other buzzwords. I like systems to be manageable and flexible. I like them to be designed well in an expedient and collaborative manner with as little management overhead as possible. Any agile, #scrum, #PMP, etc certification in your title is a sure way to push the odds that you'll never work at my company.
