Just realized why security is broken that I am currently seeing: security leadership positions are often given to people who worked as consultants. And consultants solve problems by:
- buying tooling
- being mindful of budget but only scoped for a project, not on-going maintenance and administration
- assigning resources but not scheduling resources according to ability or skill because they don’t manage people

Anyway just my observations on the different skillsets. I have worked with some really talented consultants but only a very small number can make the move to leadership for an org fulltime.

When you no longer do Vulnerability Management and can’t see tickets or work related to the team that does that work…it is hard to get your brain to calm down about all the vulnerability announcements out there right now.
(Yes, this is a subtoot about anxiety and Citrix) 😂😭

I’ve been tasked with making a presentation for techs about [high-level tech concept], due early next week. The org brought me in last minute. Gave me all the documents to go over. I’m reading the vast amount of materials, all stored in different places, and realize that they are either:
- Gartner reports/research
- AI interpretation of those reports

We found some nerds going to Blue Hat this week so we gave them some stickers to hand out. If you want one, you'll have to go around asking people what they think about MOIST GRASSHOPPER.

I’ve seen this at orgs where they have a policy that they can’t touch anything or provide any advice for stuff that happens on user’s personal tech. So that’s hard to try to mitigate for security teams.

Thanks for reminding me about the nibbling! He’s just snooting them. We are lucky because he’s usually not interested in eating any of the plants (because they aren’t fish or cheese).
I will definitely see if he will eat roses when I get a hold of any.
