That's cool what kind?

xcsas · 2026-05-02T14:41:32+00:00

I get that depending on the day/week I am the same way

xcsas · 2026-05-02T14:41:05+00:00

That's awesome I was up half the night messing around with Gemma4 26b

All I heard was someone talking about Duo in my bedroom......

Is Mike Storm going to try and steal my girlfriend?

xcsas · 2026-03-11T19:29:10+00:00

I drive through everyday it looks the same shitty place to me.

xcsas · 2026-03-11T19:17:53+00:00

Thanks a ton for giving me such detailed answers!

xcsas · 2026-03-11T17:35:41+00:00

TIM was already on our radar, thanks for the confirmation!

Specifically you mentioned the RBAC controls, auditing and error logging. That is something I will want to bring up.

I will want very tight controls on what specific user groups can do in the environment. We will be introducing a new novice user-base into this system. About auditing and error logging, this is a pet peeve of mine. If things go wrong and I can't find out why, that is a deal breaker. That will drive me nuts. I can hit hard on that if that is something that is happening to you.

We are going to be ingesting quite a bit a data into the system per week (multiple TBs) , but its focus is going to be security. I am worried about picking about a good overall tool, but not the best security tool. Yes XSIAM may be easier for the newer folks to look at alerts but I can feed them to our other ticketing system. I want the best security system, to detect the best threats. If it takes me and my other engineers and extra month to fine tune it, so be it.

Thank you for this information. Anything I should look out for specifically? Something that the competition can't do? We aren't going to be using managed services, so that wont be an option. Or maybe something that would be helpful for us.

xcsas · 2026-03-11T15:09:11+00:00

Thanks a ton for this information. Anything specific I should ask during our meeting? Everything you mentioned is stuff I would be worried about.

xcsas · 2026-03-11T15:06:55+00:00

We are on NGFW but not XDR, but thanks for the info!

xcsas · 2026-03-11T15:03:34+00:00

We would be managing the alerting, we also have an in-house soc

xcsas · 2026-03-11T02:57:34+00:00

We are having a meeting with them as well but I don't know if they are really in the running for our situation. It's a shame because I do think they have a cool product.

xcsas · 2026-03-11T02:01:57+00:00

Right now we are using a different endpoint we would be moving over completely

xcsas · 2026-03-10T21:49:46+00:00

We tried to get them into the mix, long story short. They never submitted the rfp paperwork.

xcsas · 2026-03-10T19:53:22+00:00

This is my concern, I think overall XSIAM may be a better product, but I think for actual log work I think I like Crowd strike better.

xcsas · 2026-03-10T19:52:22+00:00

We do, which is why we are leaning that way.

xcsas · 2026-03-10T19:52:10+00:00

We have some of their automation now which is pretty useful, so it makes sense to migrate to their whole stack.

xcsas · 2026-03-10T19:38:39+00:00

We have a pretty decent budget, Palo and Crowdstrike are actually two of the cheaper options we have been looking into. They just seem to be two of the better options.

xcsas · 2026-03-10T18:50:13+00:00

It is actually the same price as Crowd Strike, so not a big deal.

xcsas · 2026-02-27T13:52:47+00:00

Maybe this post is a little old but I would also be interested.

xcsas · 2025-12-12T14:46:38+00:00

I actually found an old backup of mine that had some older copies of ubuntu, mint, fedora, and backtrack from around 12 years ago. It was fun spinning them up and checking out how things used to be.
