Yeah man. It's gonna be fun. Living remote with my girl and commuting into Austin when I need to.

awesome! you're in IT if i remember correctly, right?

Sorry, had to get some water, grabbed an apple to.

More or less, yeah, cybersecurity.

awesome. there's going to be demand for that for some time to come

more and more shit hooked up to the net for no reason

needs to be secured

Oh yeaaaa siiirrrr there is. With all this Russian Hacking horseshit it's like free advertising.

hahah

didn't think of that aspect of it tbh

has got to be a nice bonus

IOT is going to be the next big vulnerability.

oh yes

and they're pushing it hard

Or rather already is.

i'm in it consulting

everything has to be in the cloud

all the devices have to be reachable and configurable

Any companies that make these devices focus R&D on new product dev, not actually keeping up with responsible updates for their customers.

security = discipline

not many shops have it

I hate that buzzword: "cloud" always made me cringe.

do you guys find it difficult to stay secure in this era of l33t h4x0rs?

must be tough

hahah, yeah i use it without thinking these days

There aren't l33t haxors so much as there are stupid users.

People are still getting compromised over basic repeated shit.

nigerian princes?

like the mongodb hack recently

That was lol.

28k unsecured instances

hilarious

that's what you get for "muh NoSQUL muh next gen db"

muh dev minus ops

Then there was this

They definitely had it coming.

yess, all the bootcamp hackathon bro hackers getting owned is rather satisfying

Lol hackathons

Ionorite

that's the beauty of tech. actual understanding simply wins
