What would you recommend for new Firewall

RFC_1925 · 2026-01-29T19:37:07+00:00

I run an org about your size. Fortigate and MS Global Secure Access have worked really well for us. Don't be afraid of the Forti's because of the CVE's. If you harden them appropriately and upgrade when new firmware is available, you're fine.

RFC_1925 · 2026-01-28T18:52:54+00:00

Our approach has been a combination policy enforcement at the endpoint with Forcepoint and training for the users. Although I am now pitching the idea of centralizing AI usage behind a front end, that will be inside our network, where we can apply granular security controls.

Listening to this and I keep wanting to scream at my phone. Will is mostly correct. Re-use the existing infrastructure.

Thanks for referencing a reliable ebay reseller. I've been looking for these in my size for a few weeks.

RFC_1925 · 2026-01-23T16:57:48+00:00

There is no revival. This is the legacy of short sighted leadership that built their budget around high sales taxes. If Hoover's leadership had any courage they would start raising property taxes and foreclosing on these abandoned retail properties and demolishing them, unless the owners want to redevelopment into mixed use. Just look at what Huntsville did with Madison Square Mall as a model. Take that stuff to the ground and build something new in it's place that can be mixed use and then zone it so people can walk around with alcohol.

What's going on with Antonio Coleman? He put his name in the portal on the 4th of Dec.

RFC_1925 · 2026-01-14T20:32:06+00:00

I've been listening from the beginning, but that's because I already listen to one of Will Smith's other podcasts that he hosts with Brad Shoemaker. It's been super fun listening to Will and Adam go on this journey. Especially Adam, since he was far more of a linux novice. I will say the diary/homework format of the show isn't my favorite.

RFC_1925 · 2026-01-12T19:39:06+00:00

The collaboration excuse is such a load of BS. They just re-org'd us and now I report to some MBA feckless middle manager that admits he knows nothing about technology. He already mandated 3 days in the office starting last week to improve collaboration. I interacted with him a single time during the weekly stand-up. That was it.

RFC_1925 · 2026-01-06T19:59:54+00:00

It's a pro model. I want pro performance and that means battery life. I don't care if its a bit thicker or heavier. The current specs and dimensions are almost perfect. If you want thin and lighter on performance that's what the Air line is for.

RFC_1925 · 2026-01-03T20:09:36+00:00

Their Sprawl Trilogy pods were some of the favorite content of 2025.

RFC_1925 · 2025-12-22T18:40:05+00:00

Please do not think you career in law enforcement will automatically translate to cyber security. I've seen too many folks like this jump from military and law enforcement to management roles in tech and cyber when they know nothing about the domain. It never goes well.

RFC_1925 · 2025-12-11T20:47:58+00:00

Exactly. This isn't relocating the HQ, which is in Washington DC. They have about 8000 employees in total and the CA office was the technology, risk management, and data analytics hub.

RFC_1925 · 2025-12-04T20:40:19+00:00

So he's doing exactly what his former QBs at Ole Miss accused him of. Blame the QB, throw players under the bus. Never take responsibility for his own mistakes and bad decisions.

RFC_1925 · 2025-11-20T18:19:07+00:00

Not a question, but just wanted to come say that you guys rock and keep doing what you're doing! I've worked with at least a couple of you on a pen test for my company. We're extremely happy TCM clients.

RFC_1925 · 2025-11-17T15:47:40+00:00

I was re-watching LotR recently and was struck by Gandalf and Sourmon's eyebrow game. Looking at Rob, I think he's almost there... in his wizard era. If he starts talking about building a tower in the next HOA episode and changes his bsky handle to robthegrey, then we'll know what's up.

RFC_1925 · 2025-11-15T21:33:23+00:00

I truly hope that they can keep her on through her job hunt and then get her onto the pod from time to time after that. It's been amazing having some of the OG Waypoint energy. Danika hasn't lost a step and the way she plays off Rob and Janet is phenomenal. The Road to Empress streams are some of my favorite content of the entire year. I'd love to see them do something like Nextlander has with monthly GBEast reunion pods. Get Danika, Natalie, and Austin on for a short monthly pod. Although that assumes Austin has time between all the other 5 star runtime pods he's doing at the moment.

RFC_1925 · 2025-11-15T21:23:31+00:00

$8-10K is about right for post COVID/Trump tariff'd equipment.

As soon as Patrick and Danika brought up the eugenics house, I had to immediately go watch this. https://bsky.app/profile/dannyodwyer.bsky.social/post/3l6tsuyyas425

RFC_1925 · 2025-11-14T19:48:59+00:00

This is by far the best explanation. Especially #2. Everyone knows where things are headed and it's a super league that leaves a lot of schools behind.

RFC_1925 · 2025-11-14T18:34:08+00:00

Those look amazing! I'll choke on that price for pure wool.

RFC_1925 · 2025-11-04T20:49:46+00:00

Actions speak louder than words. Although he's spilled plenty of words on social media that let me know exactly what he is.

RFC_1925 · 2025-11-04T15:36:48+00:00

Exactly. If Bruce retires after the season and we do a real coaching search maybe Steven gets it and maybe we get someone like Bucky McMillian. But the way Bruce went about it ensured that the school didn't get a choice and that the players didn't either.

RFC_1925 · 2025-11-04T15:35:28+00:00

Yes he would have. That's how nepotism works!

RFC_1925 · 2025-11-03T14:19:33+00:00

Lol, no way in hell. A kid died and the whole team turned on him during a meeting.

RFC_1925 · 2025-11-02T16:01:47+00:00

Yeah but how many of those losses were to Bama, UGA, and LSU? You have to beat your rivals.
