    Cybersecurity Terms

    Since we're talking terms, let's address mantrap and access control vestibule. In my Security+ class, I use the same slide for both and explain how the industry is trying to sterilize verbiage.

    Cybersecurity Terms

They come into class expecting to digest the Security+ curriculum and then run job hunts, but they do not understand why subnet masks, DNS and VLANs exist. They instead get A+ training and transition to Security+ the following week.. I feel we are...
