    Looking at what equipment would be best to stand up a lab to train for Network+, Security+ and Server+?

    Your situation is clearly challenging, but by using a type 2 hypervisor (assuming your student computers have enough CPU and RAM), many of the concepts relating to operating systems and networking can be taught in a closed environment (I suspect that is likely what you are currently doing). My...

    Looking at what equipment would be best to stand up a lab to train for Network+, Security+ and Server+?

    While I'm appreciative of the benefits associated with using real hardware in our teaching labs, I think we have to be realistic with what's going on with IT and a move towards software-defined networking and virtualization. This morning I received an email that pointed to a workshop today that...

    Hello - welcome to CIN

    Allen is Mr. CyberPatriot. His teams, over the years, have placed high (often first) in the Air Force Association's CyberPatriot competitions. See for example HERE, where his "all services division" team placed first in this year's competition (a repeated pattern). Allen is a retired Naval...

    Guys I've worked with Allen over the years and his efforts, particularly in advancing cybersecurity learning at the middle school, high school, and college levels is simply outstanding. Allen, you are a welcome addition to CIN.

    CompTIA Cloud+ Labs Needed

    One thought is to bring into your Cloud+ course free materials provided by the major cloud services providers (AWS, Microsoft, Google). A resource I've enjoyed is the Microsoft 2-day virtual training that is free and includes a free exam voucher for its AZ-900 Fundamentals certification. Click...

It relates to a Security+ class I'll be teaching that starts September 21st and ends November 30th (ten weeks with two sessions a week, each lasting two hours).

    CompTIA National CTE Advisory Council Seats Available

    Fortunately, I'm (1) semi-retired, (2) averse to meetings, and (3) from California. Therefore, do not qualify for this role.

    Ring Topology

    I'm a bit of a history buff. While I don't miss those days of hanging Christmas tree lights and having a single bulb burn out and going through the whole string of lights replacing bulbs one at a time until finding the "bad bulb", I like to remind people that's the way we use to have to do it...

    DATA+ - a new CompTIA certification

    I loved that Healthcare IT "certificate" (noting that for whatever reason it didn't carry the "certification" designation). I also enjoyed picking up a couple of certificates that were part of the Federal Government-funded HIT Pro program that never caught on and was eventually dropped.
