    Antivirus Software

    So, I've gotten rather cozy to Windows Defender for Endpoint. While WDE leverages Defender on the Windows workstation, it also creates that all important Endpoint protection piece, which allows for all the classic AV functions, but also for enterprise management, Identity (for use in older AD...

    What's Going On With Tech+

    I suspect that could be the case - basically dividing the sites between what is to be the new CompTIA and NPO that is left. I just checked and one can sign up for FC0-061 (ITF+) or FC0-071 (Tech+)... /r

    Tech+ Voucher

    Just to clarify a couple of points: 1) Your email address for CIN, CompTIA, and the e-mail address used to register on On24 for the sessions should all be the same address. They don't have to be a "work" e-mail, per se; only that it's the same across the board. If they are different, it's...

    AI Jesus Will Hear Your Confession

    The one thing that I see in the next few years is not the AI Jesus - but the AI Dungeon Master. I think the first video game out there that can properly leverage AI in order to create an infinitely replay-able role-play games.

    7 Vulnerabilities That You Can Never Patch

    Well, I've seen far too many times when people would try to hide assets, measures, and countermeasures to account for any perceived shortfalls. The thing is, sooner or later, the word gets out and folks know (or discover) what you want to hide. Case in point, using tools like AnyDesk or...

    AI Jesus Will Hear Your Confession

    So, I think this point was directly addressed in the South Park special South Park: Joining the Panderverse. Of course, after watching, you might need some one-on-one time with the AI Jesus. /r

    7 Vulnerabilities That You Can Never Patch

    I beg to differ that these things cannot be "patched" or remediated. For much of this, using the Zero Trust model within your organization deals with situations that cannot be necessarily managed through software. For other things, a solid training approach with regular testing can deal with...

    AI Risky?

    Well, she is Pennsylvanian Dutch and has been responsible over the last 25 years or so of adding 50 lbs to my overall weight. And if you had some of that, or some of her Apple Crisp a la mode, you'd pack it on too, mate.

    AI Risky?

    Just because half of security professionals have trepidations regarding AI doesn't mean that we all are (or nearly all) have data leaked out there for data brokers to find and feed to AIs. And it was Ms. Butler's cranberry sauce...with real cranberries. Far better than any cherry pie. /r
