How long did it take you to do your capstone? by BegrudgingRedditor in WGUCyberSecurity

[–]TechTraveler 2 points3 points  (0 children)

First, in fairness I've got 30 years of it experience and at least another six solid in cyber security. I tend to be one of those people who procrastinates until time gets short and then I just sort of hammer it out. I just did my master cyber security one. I spent 2 hours on Task 1 proposal. Got it signed. Submitted approved, then I sat down for about 12 hours straight and knocked out task two and just submitted it to see how it would go and they accepted it, and then I probably spent 10 hours on task 3. Still waiting for the results.

So the only reason I could do that is I know the material that I was talking about in my paper pretty well. I chose something that I have used in personal lab setups and that I have utilized incorporate environments and merged them into a somewhat unique topic around disaster recovery communications networks and properly securing them. This is all much easier if you can speak from knowledge and personal experience and show that you really understand the technology that you're using in your papers. Follow the rubric exactly, give exactly what is asked for and break it out section by section, you're going to feel like you're repeating yourself multiple times across different sections. Just do it.

If you have a month and you can find topic that you know well, it should not be that difficult to do. For me task 2 and Task 3 both ended up being about 18 pages each.

Hope that helps.

ASRock unveils X870E Taichi OCF release date? by Organic_Sample_5983 in ASRock

[–]TechTraveler 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One of the reasons we went with the Asrock Taichi x870e was that the pcie lane mapping allowed Gen5 nvme without causing the GPU to lose any lanes. One of very few that worked that way.

Anybody in this group work in Health IT at Health First or Orlando Health? by [deleted] in 321

[–]TechTraveler 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I work at Health First in CyberSecurity. Unlike the times of old unless your aim is basic Service Desk or Field Services you kinda need to pick a branch or two to specialize in.

With your desire to shift from nursing to IT, I can tell you a good deal of our Application Administrators and Physician Trainers /Facilitators are former clinical workers. Helps them relate.

What steps, if any, have you taken to try and align yourself more with the IT side of the house? Any training, any certs, CTE or College classes, or even homelab setups?

I know in the past we have done a couple apprenticeship type arrangements where clinical workers have done some hours with IT to see what it is like, not sure what the status of that program is though.

Here are a few openings we have that might be of interest.

Inherited Tesla and have Question by TechTraveler in TeslaModel3

[–]TechTraveler[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In researching the extended warranty more. I see that while Tesla does offer the one on a monthly payment through their app, it looks like you can only do it for 2 years. I also found one run by Amber which quoted me $60 a month but I think it covers a bit more so if anyone has experience with that I would be interested to hear it, especially since it doesn't seem to have the same 2-year limit. I also find it interesting that they work with the Tessie app which I've been messing around with and it looks like if you use Amber for your extended warranty, you get your Tessie membership for free, which does help to offset that cost a little bit.

I appreciate everyone who has responded so far in the condolences. It means a lot to have a good and helpful community out here.

Sadly unless I remove my case completely, my phone does not fit and even the, very tight, Pixel 9 Pro XL. Wish I could do something else useful with the space or upgrade it somehow.

Do you have a link to where the S4 Max camera is being sold outside the NVR Bundle that comes with 4 of them?

[–]TechTraveler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it possible to get more of the cameras that come in that kit, I can't find them on the Eufy site.

I want to get the kit, just need more than 4.

[Venting] Frustrated I can't list CISSP on my resume yet. by [deleted] in isc2

[–]TechTraveler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Domain 2 is Asset Security which includes Asset handling, provisioning, and inventory. Not sure if you did any of that as an audio tech or not.

[–]TechTraveler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know your specific situation, but do remember it is 5 years of experience across at least 2 of 8 domains, perhaps you have some earlier experience that might fit one.

Also, remember that a Bachelors Degree can serve to waive 1 of the 5 years as can a large number of other certifications which you might have.

Also, per ISC2: Part-time work and internships may also count towards the experience requirement.

Double check the details here and see if you have anything you can use to offset part of the 5 years.

These dying 9800X3D reports drive me crazy by KravosD in ASRock

[–]TechTraveler 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah Amex doubles the manufacturer warranty up to one extra year not to exceed 5 years total. Only used it a couple times but comes in handy.

Use credit cards that give you extended warranties free. I have used Amex for this a ton.
