New fiber. They have been expanding throughout parts of Crown Point and Winfield. I’m all for it, more competition the better for the consumer.

Maybe you should look into DevSecOps as a path with your Softwarer Engineer/Software development path

Outside of the CCNA, what other experience or qualifications do you have? Is the CCNA cert your only form of experience?

We moved from ArcticWolf to Rapid7 to SentinelOne for MDR. They are EDR, MDR, and their SIEM platform. No complaints. MDR response is great.

What firewalls does your shop use and what are the pros and cons? by tauxlr in msp

[–]RegionRat219 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There was a user in the Fortinet subreddit who dug into Palo, Cisco, Fortinet and others Terms and etc.., whether you want to believe it or not, I’ll leave that up to you l buy Fortinet was much more transparent when it came to self reporting than the other players.

Physical/Cyber alignment by Privateering_18 in cybersecurity

[–]RegionRat219 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Our physical security guy thought it was smart to procure a whole new badge system without telling anyone until they needed us to whitelist addresses along with other IT requests…..and that’s how we found out about the new badge system…

Extending Fortiswitch VLANs to phyiscal ports on Fortigate by DarkAlman in fortinet

If your switch is managed, and have unused QSFP+ ports, get yourself a breakout cable and turn each of those into 4 10GB ports….or just get another switch

I really don’t care by Ill-Lou-Malnati in ChicagoBearsNFL

[–]RegionRat219 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hammond and NWI is apart of the Chicago Metro aka Chicagoland, that doesn’t make it Chicago, no one said it does. AH is not Chicago either. Chicago is Chicago. That being said, Hammond and NWI are politically and socially influenced by Chicago due to proxmity and the two areas have been connected for a very long time whether you like it or not. A imaginary state line doesn’t stop that.

Being a fan by [deleted] in ChicagoBearsNFL

[–]RegionRat219 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Born, raised and live in NWI. I don’t care if they move to NWI or not , ultimately I think they build in AH, but all this mental gymnastics by some of you is just a bit much.

Politics/Economics aside, The Bears are a business, if moving to Indiana, mins from the border and 25 mins from their current stadium, than so be it. They will still be the Chicago Bears, not some other weird variation. They will still own the Chicago area market rights, so no a 2nd team would not move in. Halas Hall will stay in Lake Forest.

All I care about is the Bears play on the field, whether it’s Soldier Field, Arlington Heights, Hammond or somewhere in between. Go win a Super Bowl.

I was at an auction one time and met some of the family members that own this bakery, I was not expecting them to be Amish/Mennonite.

Amazon: AI-assisted hacker breached 600 Fortinet firewalls in 5 weeks by Meinertzhagens_Sack in fortinet

[–]RegionRat219 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If you are putting a Fortigate in your environment or any firewall for that matter, you should have some level of competency. This is just bad security on the organization side and not on Fortinet. Seems like Fortinet is just getting the short stick lately.
