The IT Security Attaché

Hey guys,

So we (Brett, Security Attaché and TITSSN) are off to I-CON for a full weekend of activities, panel discussions, workshops and presentations and we are very excited about it. We will try to keep the blogs/tweets updated. One of the highlights for us is to meet Sam from Lord of the Rings as he’s one of our favorite characters and it is one of our most loved movies. Sean “Samwaise Gamgee” Astin is a special guest at the event this year. I can’t believe it was so long ago, LOTR sits in my head as if I just watched it. Wow, time does go by huh.

Sam from Lord of the Rings

There will be a showing of all three LOTR movies at the convention so you know we’re going to be all over that.

God I love the LOTR movies.

 So anyway, we will have limited access to email and voice but will respond if/when we can. If any readers of the blogs are at the event please reach out and say hi. We’d love to meet you too.

I just got an alert of a thunderstorm for the area so my travel time is now increased. Got to get going to get there in time for the Cyber-Crime panel discussion at the Marriot at 8:30pm.

Thank you and have a great day,

Good day to you,

So it’s another day in the box and now i’m looking at either hiring a few people or just cloning myself. So much to do, so much need, so much to lead/plan on, feeling quite happy and comfortable with myself.

Today I plan to finish up two project plans and get a few people involved. I have to start working on the office and restructuring it for opening up to training and development sessions over the next few months. I’m also opening up my security operations to the general public so they can see some of the technology and things we have going on here. I have a few vendors who are asking me to test and show off a few products and solutions so they will come in handy as well.

I have a few voicemails so will check on those today. I didn’t see any known or important numbers so this must be new connections which are always a good thing. Will reply and then cut the lines again. One never realize how much of an intrusion the ringing of a phone is until you turn it off for a day and feel the peace and calm it does for you. Wow, such subtle serenity is priceless. Bring on the IM, emails and txt messages.

So, do I clone myself or just try and find a few good people to help me with all this work I have on my plate, hmm, I ponder.

Anyway, it’s back to work and I hope I can finish up by tomorrow (which looks very much possible).

I am in need of someone with good web graphics designing skills in Flash to help me with the SecuriCity. There are a few things I want to do with it that i’m not skilled on. We’ll see what happens.

BTW. I have a Facebook fan page here http://www.facebook.com/pages/The-IT-Security-Attache/38575323030?ref=mf for those who are on that network and would like to follow my work.

Have a great day and I thank you for your support here on my blogs and for my organization.
