Houston, security has a branding problem. People hate us. We’re the no people. The people that hold up procurement. The people that ask nosy questions. The people that spend money. How do we change the vibe? Marketing offers us a path forward. There’s two groups – the P’s and the C’s – with four points

Finally, a class with a familiar subject: analyzing data. The methods were kept fairly high level, as this was a class for business students, not engineering students. I certainly appreciated that, as I only passed engineering statistics with the help of my now-late ex-husband. The tools were kept to the ubiquitous accessible Excel, with the

Like my strategy class, I went into “Managerial Leadership & Productivity” completely blind. The course description helped little; it mentioned “organizational behavior and human motivation in the workplace”. Seven weeks later: You know how people keep saying security needs “people skills”? The textbook is “Developing Management Skills” by David Whetten and Kim Cameron. You know

Well, job hunting has certainly changed in the past few years. On the surface, an AI-powered recruiting pipeline makes sense. Given a job description, have ChatGPT rack and stack the candidate’s resumes. It’s an easy way to direct the more value human time and add value to a hard process. In 26 days, I applied

Hack To The Future: How World Governments Relentlessly Pursue and Domesticate Hackers Overall: Should be required reading for anyone in the field. I’ve followed Hacking History for some time, and I preordered this book months ago. It does not disappoint. It reads like a political thriller … except it’s all true. I’m a big fan

“So what’s your body count?” I blinked at the man in front of me. That was not the question I suspected when I took the gig. Mel needed more idents, and she thought it was safe enough, so I plead my case to work solo. Get some experience, start making a name for myself. I’d

I really didn’t know what to expect from a class titled “Strategy Formation and Organizational Design”. There wasn’t even a textbook. Instead, we had a course pack of articles from the Harvard Business Review. I ended up liking this setup, not least because it was a solid $100 cheaper than a textbook. My biggest lesson

Overall: Excellent reference! Reading and understanding the theory behind lock-picking is no substitute for practicing. I picked up No Starch’s Locksport book at BSides Seattle, directly from one of the authors. Matt and the technical reviewer, Peter, were kind enough to sign my copy! The organization is excellent, and it’s easy to find what you’re

Well, I survived my only Accounting class. I received a phone call prior to the class, warning me that this class might require more than the advertised 20 hours of work a week. I would say I spent about 15 hours of time per week, but math is a strong area for me. Since we

Title: The Security Culture Playbook: An Executive Guide To Reducing Risk and Developing Your Human Defense Layer Author: Perry Carpenter, Kai Roer Overall: Worth reading! I haven’t found a lot of books talking about security awareness — from either the content or administration side, and that’s a shame. There’s a glut of technical books, and
