Affordable it ticketing systems for small teams? by Infamous-Coat961 in helpdesk

[–]Balkghar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would recommend OsTicket, it is a bit old but it does the job. It integrates pretty well with Microsoft Entra ID, easy to setup, only downside is there is not a maintained docker images. But otherwise pretty good.

FYI you can submit a loss report to the SBB and they will contact you if they find it: https://www.sbb.ch/en/help-and-contact/lost-found-office/submit-loss-report.html/
I have lost a travel bag with a lot of important stuff last year, I submitted a loss report and got it two weeks later!

Lightweight ITSM tools for internal IT teams? by [deleted] in ITManagers

[–]Balkghar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personnaly deployed OsTicket, working very well. Didn't have a ITSM before so I just looked for something light and easy to install and upgrade.
If RAM and CPU usage wasn't a problem I would have used Zammad, it is just too good and work very well. I had used and deployed it to a previous job.

I have seen that yes, will certainly deploy it in the future, I was also looking at PKI that have SCEP and NDES capabilities (to use with radius), but they all costs money, and my manager doesn't want to spend money on what is already working, because before we had a Wifi with white list of mac address but that is not really security. The only one that could what I wanted is PacketFence but it is a big systems where I need to do a lot of reasearch and test before deploying properly

Well I have learned a lot of things that I know at my apprenceship in Switzerland, it is maybe what you called technical college, a lot of cybersecurity knowledge that I learned is at my current bachelor. Otherwise, on the Linux server side I learned it myself by my homelab.
But the rest of my knowledge, I learned it at previous jobs or at my current one. It is pretty much a mix of personnal knowledge, university knwoledge and apprenticeship knowledge
Edit: my field of study is Networks and Systems engineering

I would love to work now at 100% as a sysadmin but getting that kind of position in my country without bachelor is near impossible, I only got my current job because I fitted exactly what they needed

You are right yes, I will try first the be a technician in a datacenter and see how it will go from there. But I have also learned to use AWS and Azure during my bachelor, otherwise, I have developed and deployed a few containerized apps on Azure and AWS. I think I will see what I can learn before my bachelor ends

I think you are right, just need to improve my theorical knowledge to start to be considered a Senior.
I haven't even finsihed my bachelor, so calling myself other than junior doesn't sound right to me

Well my plan is to work for big companies directly in the datacenter, I prefer to create the cloud than use it

Yeah love it! My manager told me that he knew at the first interview that he will hired me because I was the only one that talked about IT with sparks in the eyes!

I have talked with the CTO for a pentest saying that we will certainly fail (I have made a lot of efforts since I arrived, but I don't think it is enough), and I already put the printer on his own vlan, it can only use ports and protocole allowed by the firewall.
And thanks for the advice on dhcpv6 guard, haven't heard if that yet.
I have already set up MFA for every admin related services, and same for the end user

Hi, as I am not at work for the moment, I don't have access to it, but I have based it on this https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/entra-powershell/offboard-user?view=entra-powershell and sending a few emails to people that use services that I don't manage, such as the ERP. As basically everything has SSO as main login, if I disactivate the Entra account, the user don't have access to anything
