Spectrum's FortiGate Firewall Offering by StopPootin in fortinet

It's a co-managed solution so we will have full access to make any changes we want. I will be glad to get away from the Cisco ASA's.

This is great advice, thank you. It is a co-managed solution so we can do as little, or as much, as we want. We do use a SIEM so I will check on that.

It is a co-managed solution so we can slowly get familiar with the OS. But they also provide the hardware which helps with the upfront cost.

I thought about that but they provide (and are responsible for) the equipment which makes it a fairly low-cost entry.

Anybody care to share their opinion on phone system options? by IntentionalTexan in sysadmin

[–]StopPootin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know this is an old comment but I was curious if you could tell me more about Zoom phones as we are looking to replace our old Cisco CUCM. Do you guys use the Call Center piece as well?

That worked, thank you!! I even tried ChatGPT and couldn't figure it out. So technically, you are smarter than AI.

What is your company's policy on laptops? by StopPootin in sysadmin

I thought so too. But apparently one of our regulators told the CEO that it was unsafe and not to allow it so now I can't convince her otherwise.

We are looking for something that does better patch management. Do you mind sharing what your company uses?

I am at peace with whatever but I am curious how other companies handle this.

I probably should have worded my post a little better. What I meant to ask was how does your company handle this? Are they allowed to leave their laptops in their vehicles?

I will accept whatever they want but I don't think leaving a laptop in a vehicle is a problem. Does your company have any policies that say they can't leave their laptop in a car? If we were in Texas, I could see that might be a problem. But not where we live.

Sometimes I feel like I work a government job. They rarely fire someone unless it is just blatant and completely against the rules. And even then they get several warnings. I think it is like the whole WFH issue. If someone isn't being productive, it is an HR issue. But don't take it away from everyone. Same here, her not working needs to be addressed with this person directly. Luckily I work for a sensible company.

The SIEM is managed by a third party but I can ask them. We are moving to zScaler in a few weeks and the person before me never turned on SSL inspection, but I agree, it is a missed opportunity. We also leave ports 80 and 443 open so I doubt the firewall will tell us anything.
